We had a wonderful family stay enjoying the Lutsen and North Shore area. The condo was a great jumping off point and had all the amenities we needed. The kids especially loved the pools and bunk beds. We would recommend to any family of 4 looking to visit northern Minnesota.

Wonderful little condo! Gave us a great view of the fall colors right from the porch. Enjoyed the wood burning fireplace every evening with the crisp fall air. Would certainly stay here again.

I had Shayla IM helping me along the way. I had help all the way from days before arriving, the day of arrival, checking in, checking in is during the stay, and checking out. Condo was clean and everything was nice and convenient for our ski in and out vacation.

The host was very easy to deal with and willing to help when needed. She responded quickly to messages via the VRBO app.The condo was cute and had everything we needed for a family of 5!Location was awesome - right on the slopes, right next to free firewood, close to pool and hot tub. It was also nice to be close the Moguls restaurant.The view of Moose Mountain and the gondola was gorgeous! Loved the wood burning fireplace - we used it every night!Very reasonably priced compared to other condos on the mountain.

We were given all the information that we needed. It could have been much cleaner. There was food around the garbage can and wasn't vacuumed well. The dishes had old food on them and it was very dusty. Location is great.

Thank you for your feedback—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I’m very sorry to hear the cleanliness did not meet expectations. That is certainly not the standard we strive for, and I have shared your comments directly with our cleaning and quality control teams so we can address this immediately and prevent it from happening again. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the location—Caribou Highlands really is a special spot on the North Shore. We would love the opportunity to host you again and provide you with the five-star experience we aim for every time.
