This hotel was a very pleasant place to stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. The property is very well maintained, clean, and quiet. The parking lot was well-lit without being obnoxious. It's also great that it's dog friendly, and the other guests with dogs all kept them well-behaved. I would definitely recommend The Mountain Inn at Lutsen!

Room was very clean amenities are very good. The only thing I have to say is the plumbing was less than stellar. The toilets took forever to flush. The shower and the sink did not drain very well. You were standing in a puddle of water while you were showering. Staff is very nice.
