About this property

Superior Views - a safe place on 13 acres With A Private Wilderness Setting


An amazing private setting and cute cabin 2 bed , 2 baths with big lake views on 13 private acres, yet it’s 1 mile to Superior and close to several big resorts and Lutsen ski area is one mile .Added a new gas fireplace inside and also has a great fire pit outside. Hooked up the WiFi to go with the satellite TV. Great for small families as it is close to lots of fun things to do at the ski area and near golf course too.

This cabin, (Superior views ) is very comfortable for smaller groups. It features one large bedroom, a 2ND bedroom Split from Master with a Queen bed and single bed. It has two bathrooms, one big full bathroom and a 2nd half bath , a full-size kitchen and living area plus an attached garage. There is also a screen porch and a deck, both with big views of Lake Superior. The main bedroom also with lake views .

The cabin ideally accommodates a family of up to 5 people.*
This property backs up to the Minnesota State Scientific and Natural area and hundreds of acres of private land. It is very close to the ski area, golf course and many great restaurants.

The screen porch is a wonderful place to listen to the animal sounds (but not be in a tent). Hiking trails, mountain biking paths, berry picking areas, access to lakes and rivers are all nearby and much more - the owner will be happy to help you figure out what fun things you might want to do. We have Sat TV and it has a great cell signal for phones and iPads and fiber internet.

*We do have a larger property nearby also on VRBO if you are needing room for a larger group.

Quick spring trip to Lutsen
What a great location for all the fun activities in the area! We came up for one last Midwest ski weekend and John's place is so close to Lutsen mountain, it couldn't have worked out better. We brought our 2 dogs, so thanks for being dog friendly!

Excellent property; clean and spacious
The property is right in the Lutsen hill for skiing. It’s spacious with a bedroom on either side of the kitchen sitting area. It is a beautiful setting; lots of space inside and out. The owner was super attentive and accomodating.

Great Time, Nice Cabin and Right on Snowmobile Trail
We came up for our yearly snowmobile vacation and the cabin was comfortable for 4 adults and 3 larger dogs. John is very easy to contact and checks in periodically during stay to make sure everything is going okay. Not far from snowmobile trails so you can ride right to the trails . We will definitely be back!!!!

Great North Shore Weekend
We stayed for a long weekend in September, the area is beautiful, and the cabin is close to all North Shore amenities. Restaurants, hiking, golf. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the cabin and would love to stay again! Bonus that it was dog friendly thank you for that option to be able to bring our dog with.

Nice cabin and close to Lutsen
This was a great place for my wife and two daughters and two pups for a ski trip to Lutsen. Only a couple minutes from the hill and had space enough for 4 people. Only thing to note is that the second bathroom is a half bath with no shower. We would stay again.

Nice View
We were drawn to the name of the place: A safe place. Reading further it said quiet/private. That is exactly what we wanted for our 14th wedding anniversary trip. However, John called us on our way up as there was an issue with sediment coming up in the toilets because of recent well drilling on near by properties. No biggie, we get it. We were able to bring our cooler items in and put in the fridge. Then we walked around the area for abt an hour while the plumber finished working. Once he left we brought our stuff in and stared dinner. The kitchen is well appointed. All pots and pans are in the drawer under the oven. We found the bathrooms and kitchen nice and clean. However, the living room and bedrooms not as much. I dropped something on the floor, turned the lamp on to find it and saw the biggest cobweb on the other couch and floor. All the wood in the main bedroom was dusty. I think the biggest issue we had was the owner knocking on the door or showing up unannounced daily. It was weird to me and we felt the privacy part was gone. John is a nice guy but I found those visits pretty off putting. We were only there 3 nights so a daily visit wasnt expected nor wanted. We were looking for a retreat, a restful place to be in between sightseeing.

Serene and Private Setting
Overall, a great location! A very private and serene setting. Necessary amenities were included. Very spacious cottage. Really liked the screened room. The pups felt at home, and so did the humans. We would definitely come back.

Amazing setting for a Fall getaway!
Great little bunkhouse situated in the trees away from everything. A little serenity in the woods. Cabin has most everything you need and is very cozy. Spent a lot of time on the screen porch and deck just taking in the nature. Note to those wanting to use the TV: the satellite TV doesn't work as it should (no paired remote, making it difficult to navigate with just the cable box) - would recommend bringing your own Roku or Firestick so that you can access what you need using the cabin's WiFi.

Perfect north shore location
We loved the cabin and all the amenities it offered. It was perfect for a small family and was accessible to most major north shore attractions near the Lutsen area. We had one rainy day and the cabin was a relaxing and spacious place to relax. We hope to come again!

I grew up in Bloomington, Minnesota and have lived in both Minnesota and Arizona. I have been developing vacation properties in the Lutsen area for 25 years, selling land and building cabins. I live in the Twin Cities now but come up to the North Shore frequently for work and vacation. I have two wonderful daughters and one of them lives nearby in Lutsen and would love to show you the area.
