Great Retreat

Cozy Bear Den was a comfortable and peaceful retreat for us. Alex & Kate have thought of every detail to make their home a wonderful place to stay. The kitchen was wonderfully equipped so we could easily prepare meals. We enjoyed the sauna after our daily hikes on the north shore and relaxing in the living room or patio at night. Perfect place to stay for any season!!

We had such a wonderful stay! The hosts were fantastic—friendly, responsive, and made everything so easy. The kitchen was very well stocked, which made cooking at home a breeze. The location couldn’t have been better, close to everything we wanted to do. One of the highlights was definitely the sauna—it was such a relaxing treat after a day out. Overall, a perfect spot in a great location, and we’d love to come back!

Perfect location

If you're looking for a location that is close to all of the cute things in this area of the world, but still private and quiet, this is an ideal location. I traveled with my sister and we got to have lots of late night talking while also laughing at rorously where we disturbed no one. The sauna was a real treat.

Great place for couples going to Lutsen!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Bear Den. The space was clean, the kitchen was very well stocked (with two different types of coffee makers and an electric tea kettle, which is a rarity) and the sauna was an absolute treat! The hosts were also great and reached out several times during our stay to make sure everything was good. I highly recommend the space for couples visiting the north shore. We will be back next year!

Honeymoon/Hiking

Our stay was great! We enjoyed the locations proximity to town, but also just far enough that it did not impact the serenity of our outdoor experience. The housing itself was wonderful and everything was easy to use. The only update that would be needed would be to trim some of the taller grass around the outdoor spaces, making it easier to enjoy the patio and fireplaces outback.

The apartment is well appointed with nice furnishings and while it says you can sleep 4, 2 is about all I would recommend. It will sleep 4 though with 1 bedroom and a sleeper sofa. If I were to visit this area again I would definitely consider this place for future trips.

Convenient location in Tofte

Garage studio apartment with the necessities. We were in the area to hike, so didn’t spend a lot of time there. First impression driving in wasn’t great as the property was overgrown and the exterior of the garage needs some TLC, but the inside was clean and functional.
