Perfect Place for a Skication

We stayed here in February and went to Lutsen for a few days. It was a great location for a Lutsen skication. The sauna was excellent. The kitchen is a bit small but has almost all of the amenities. Would stay here again!

Weekend away

This cabin had everything you needed for a great time away on the North Shore. Close to the general store and a quick drive to grand Marais, but more so it was super close to some beautiful nature and walking. We would happily stay again at this beautiful cabin.
