Debating between a resort or the comfort of a more private accommodation?

Located in the heart of Lutsen Mountains and the North Shore, the Northwoods Retreat boasts all of the amenities you would expect from a luxury hotel. This is the perfect place to relax…and when you’re ready to venture out, this recently built Lutsen Northwoods Retreat is conveniently located near most anything you choose to do while visiting. The location is priceless…Lutsen Mountains ski hills and hiking trails/falls are just up the hill. Snowmobile and biking trails are nearby, too! The North Shore Winery/Sawtooth Mountain Cider House is within walking distance. The Gitchi-Gami State Trail is just down the road….and to top it off, the cabin overlooks Superior National Golf Course with views of Lake Superior off to your left and views of Moose Mountain off to your right. It's the perfect home away from home to relax and enjoy true north.

This sweet cabin provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms with sleeping availability for up to 10 people. Built in 2017, everything is newer and ready for your enjoyment.

The kitchen provides a granite island with bar stools and is well stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. The kitchen/dining/living area boast a floor to ceiling stone gas fireplace - just a great place to kick back and relax.

The bathrooms include a walk-in tiled shower on the upper level and a tub/shower combination on the main level.

The exterior of the cabin consists of two outdoor living areas - a partially covered wrap around porch accessible from the main living area with gas grill and outdoor dining table for your enjoyment AND a large covered balcony off of the upper level bedroom...perfect for star gazing. The stars are absolutely incredible here! In the quiet of the night, you can even hear the falls....serenity and peace!

Other amenities include heated floors, central air, granite counter tops, silhouette blinds on all of the windows, high speed internet, WIFI, satellite TV and location.....only a short distance up Ski Hill Road off of Highway 61.

The driveway offers plenty of room for parking providing a circular drive for easy in and out for trailers. Relaxing with good conversation around the fire pit adds to incredible evenings under the northwoods night sky.

What makes the bedrooms so inviting? I have so carefully chosen top of the line furniture, mattresses and bedding for your comfort with luxury bed linens from the Hilton Collection. Comforters and pillows are down alternative. All of the bedrooms provide a flat screen TV with satellite TV. The king bedroom offers a large balcony perfect for star gazing. All bedrooms have ceiling fans plus additional tabletop fans, if needed. A Pack N Play is, also, available for the little ones. The pull-out twin sleeper and EZ beds all have gel foam mattress toppers for your comfort.

The bedding is as follows:
Master bedroom (upper level): king bed
Guest bedroom (upper level): queen bed/twin sleeper
Guest bedroom (main level): queen bed
Also, provided are twin & queen EZ inflatable beds on a frame with gel foam mattress toppers

Everything is here to bring you the ideal vacation with family and friends. This is truly a luxury cabin perfect for relaxing and a beautiful getaway. The highlight of this home is the picturesque view both day and night and the perfect location to enjoy everything you love about the north shore without all of the busyness. Enjoy a cup of morning coffee watching the northwoods come alive or a glass of wine at night under the incredible stars. When it's cold outside, enjoy the indoors next to the cozy fireplace. Tucked away in nature, you will have all of the conveniences of home. Every season at Lutsen and the North Shore allow the opportunity to be active and explore the beauty of the land and to simply relax. I welcome the opportunity for my Lutsen Northwoods Retreat to be your home away from home.

The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Beautiful Cabin

The cabin is beautiful. Very nicely built and decorated cabin. Beds are very comfortable and the property is very clean. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality pots/pans and utensils as well as a handful of appliances like coffee pot, Keurig, toaster, blender and a handful of other various appliances. It’s an easy less than 5 minute drive to the main Lutsen ticket office. This property has a nice outdoor space with fire pit and wrap around porch. The owner is very responsive and you can tell the property is well cared for. Our two families had a wonderful time together. There is a closet full of various board games and puzzles we really enjoyed playing together. I would recommend this place to anyone especially if you want to ski at Lutsen or explore the north shore.

Ski trip

Beautiful cabin with easy check in process. The furnitures, beds, towels were all comfortable and cozy. The bathrooms and showers were wonderful. Things are labeled and easy to find. Easy access to ski hill. Host was very gracious and allowed us a late check out and a potential extra night with no extra charge due to a winter storm. We loved this cabin and will definitely be staying again!

Great location! Adorable cabin!

Our family of 6 stayed here to ski Lutsen…and we couldn’t be more pleased with this place! Super close to the mountain, lots of space for all of us, comfortable beds. We even braved the elements and walked to the winery across the street one night! Kitchen is well appointed, even had a crock pot! Deb was very communicative and easy to work with. Highly recommend—much better than a cramped room at the ski resort!

Wonderful cabin

Our stay at Deb's property was awesome! Everything was very clean and organized. The kitchen was fully stocked so we were able to cook anything (most places don't have enough items). It was nice to sit out on the porch and have our coffee. The firepit was nice and close to the cabin. Location was perfect. This was probably the nicest place we have rented (we rent alot), and will definitely come back!

This house is great for our family of 6 - this was our 3rd stay and it was wonderful again. Kitchen is well stocked and organized, plenty of space to relax and play games, love the porch (and covered so good for a rainy afternoon), and the location can’t be beat. Short drive to Grand Marais, winery/cidery just up the road, and many good trail options nearby. Communication was clear and easy from start to finish!

Our family stayed at Deb’s place for the Lutsen 99er weekend. It was the perfect base camp for our weekend. The cabin is beautiful and well appointed. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen is exceptionally well stocked and the living room is a comfortable gathering space. Outdoor spaces are excellent from the porch to the fire pit, everything you could want. Deb is an excellent host. We’ve already booked for next year!

New years ski trip

The house is an amazing location to ski! My husband is a master carpenter and he enjoyed all the attention to detail throughout the home. I unfortunately injured myself on the 2nd lift of the morning on our second day and was bed ridden. I couldn’t have been in a better place to be stuck in bed all day. It was like staying at the Four Seasons. The comfort of bed and pillows is exactly what anyone needs after a long day on the hills or an injured skier laid up all day. If we are skiing in Lutsen, we will be staying here every time! Thank you

Perfect getaway!

We loved staying here! With 6 adults and 2 young kids, it fit us perfectly! Kitchen was well stocked, beds were very comfortable. We used the pull out couch, which wasn’t as great obviously, but still worked well. Loved the outdoor fire pit and had PLENTY of wood. Being on the golf course was an added bonus! Close to hiking trails and activities. We had one minor issue and it was tended to quickly and without headache. Highly recommend (and from someone who is quite picky!). Thank you Deb!
