Excellent accommodations

We have stayed in the Lutsen area many times over the years. The accommodations at this location were one of the nicest we’ve stayed at. The kitchen/dining area was very well appointed and the decor was updated and fresh.

Good location

This property was very good for my family and I to visit Lutsen on a ski trip. The one thing I would point out to potential visitors is that Lutsen Mountain does not have very many green or Easy ski slopes so if you are a beginner skier there may be Better choices elsewhere

Perfect Spot

The property is modern and well kept. Perfect location for our young family to enjoy the pools and overlook the beautiful Lutsen ski area. This was a great home base for adventures into the hiking trails and close to Grand Marais. We enjoyed the condo and found it very comfortable to be in with all the necessities.

We had everything we needed, the place was cozy and sweet, the wood burning fireplace was a treat, would recommend highly. The kitchen was well stocked, we cooked several meals. We stayed with our 2 adult kiddos (18 and 21) and they had plenty of space to chill and relax. Perfect location for the ski runs. Thank you!

Family MEA Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Shayla and Garrett's property for MEA weekend with the only real downside being the weather as it rained half the time during the long weekend resulting in more indoor time versus enjoying the outside and North Shore. Our family consisted of 5, two adults and three nine and under. The property had all the amenities we needed including a heated outdoor pool that the kids got a "kick" out of as we went swimming in the rain and cold. We are frequent travelers to the North Shore and were lucky to find this property during MEA weekend as it met all the requirements we look for in a property for our family. This property is part of Caribou Highlands which we have stayed at before in a different unit but we liked the location of this unit much better as it was close to the pool and main lodge. If traveling to Lutsen in the future we'd look to stay in this unit again, hopefully the weather would be better but we'd recommend it to others. Thank you.

Family Vacation

Fun place to stay. Great location. Plenty of activities to entertain any age group. The view was amazing each morning. The yard games, swimming and bon fire were a great way end each day. The Farmer's were great host and answered quickly when needed. Directions and check in was easy to follow as well.

Short get away up North

Location was great and views were beautiful. My kids loved being able to have a pool/hot tub at the end of the day. Unit needs a little love in the kitchen and either the dish washer or someone who had done the dish washing prior to us wasn't great. We just hand washed them and all was well. The resort was over all nice and I enjoyed daily hikes around the area. We plan to come back during the winter to utilize the space for skiing/boarding.

This condo was perfect for our family of four. It is easy ski in/out access. The kids loved the pool, hot tub and ping pong table. The condo was very clean and communication with the owners was easy.

Great Condo!

My husband, daughter and I came to the condo for a ski/snowboarding trip. Everything was perfect! The condo is exactly as pictured online with plenty of room for us, and had everything we needed. The ski in/ski out was perfect for taking breaks and the lockers on the bottom floor made it so we didn’t have to bring our skis and board into the condo. The on-site restaurant was good, we ate there several times. Owners were very responsive. Would definitely stay here again!
