About this property

Luxury Log Home on 5 acres Sawtooth Moutain Hideaway close to ski hill & hiking

Welcome to Sawtooth Mountain Hideaway and this exquisite log home. It may be tucked into the woods in a very private fashion but it's still nice and close to all of the amenities that one may need while vacationing on the North Shore. The wilderness awaits right out the front door. Hop onto the Superior Hiking Trail or the Sugarbush Cross-Country Ski Trail system. They are both just a few minutes away! The snowmobile trail access is only a mile up the road and its a 5 minute drive to Lutsen Mountains ski area. Don't forget to bring your bikes along as the paved state trail is accessible just 30 seconds away. There's absolutely nothing wrong with simply staying in and enjoying the incredible Lake Superior views off of the expansive deck. Relax in front of the fireplace or enjoy some time together in the 4-season porch. There is a master suite on the upper level of the home, a large bedroom on the main level of the home with a bathroom across the hall and two bedrooms with a full bath across the hall in the lower level. The kids will absolutely love the bunk bed room! There is a custom-built bar in the lower level, too, along with a large TV for streaming movies and shows. How perfect is it that there are Lake Superior views from each and every level!? Enjoy the outdoor firepit but please note that you'll need to supply your own firewood. Several local convenience stores sell it so it's easy to get. The comfort level, the decor, the perfect layout, the custom-made tables and bar, the true attention to detail, the convenient location, the lake views...you cannot beat it.
ALSO, if you have the need for more space for more guests, please take a look at our neighboring property nordhytte It's right next door to this property and sleeps 4 more guests.

Beautiful Property

This cozy lodge nestled in the woods overlooking Lake Superior was even better than the listing! Great location, beautiful home, and so many personal touches throughout. A peaceful spot, but close to many attractions. A great place to spend with family and friends without ever leaving! Probably one of the most relaxing vacations we have been on. A definite stay again! :)

Yearly Gathering (approx 40 years) of Old High School Friends

We all absolutely loved the place and location. We try to get to the North Shore of Lake Superior as often as we can for our yearly get-together. This VRBO home was definitely in the top 5. It was clean, well stocked, beautifully decorated, great location to many hiking trails, attractions in the area, and shopping needs. The furnishings and beds were very comfortable. The views were spectacular. We lucked out with perfect weather. We would definitely stay here again with no hesitation.

This was our second time staying at the Sawtooth Mountain Hideaway. We had 6 adults and 5 kids. There was plenty of space for us. We all looked forward to being back on the North Shore at this property all year! It’s so, so pretty inside and out. The view is amazing and the location is convenient. Linda was really quick to respond to messages and very accommodating. We will be back!

Fee Fee Fee All Tricks.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.. The most shocking part of working with VRBO is they Fee you to death. I hate a crying, merciful, Break down of fees. Fees for this, fees for that. And they are all put on my bill. It is not even close to what you have on the rental add. I hope the owner knows how much VRBO is getting from the owners. I as a person who took interest, am really disappointed. We lined up eight people to enjoy PROPERTY 1333056. We divided the listed price buy eight people. Just to find many more little fees that we did not tell the friends of ours. Did not see them at this point. Then when we booked it we found many more fees. Made the bill close to 25% higher. We as the people lining this up got stuck with those fees. Lots of hiding the true prices. There is absolutely no need for all this when they take so much DOWN money. Then they want insurance to buy with a very poor backing out program. I will not say I am not going to us VRBO again. But I am going to E-Mail the owner to make sure this is what they want. It sure looks like VRBO is cleaning up on the home owners. The hiden fees are not only hiden. They are big money. I am 59 years old and am going to take more Vacations. Brian Maertens

Our firsts impression left us joyful. Beautiful with all the comforts. Organized, easy to find things and know where to put them back. Had everything we needed, and the supplies were quality. That makes everything easier. Nicely decorated for Christmas, we stayed just days before. Had all the things needed for a great stay. Could not have asked for a better experience. Absolutely delighted.
