Lutsen Lookout is fantastic

Wonderful and unique home and property. Easy to get to Lutsen Mountains for our ski trip. Lutsen Lookout is very well appointed. Something to enjoy for all ages. Very close to HWY 61 to access all that the Lake Superior shore has to offer and a quick drive to shops and restaurants in Grand Marais and surrounding towns. Hosts are very responsive and welcoming. Can't wait to come back!

Lutsen Ski Trip

First of all - pics do not do this property justice - it is just lovely! Well thought out appointments, with both easy & thorough instructions for everything. Already missing my sunrise over Lk Superior yoga sessions. Folks skiing - ride to the hill was maybe 5 min. Nice big dining room table for dinners and family games. We are so happy to have found!

Fantastic Stay!

We were so very impressed with this lovely home and it's gorgeous location. The owners thought of everything. The generous sized rooms, open floor plan with huge windows overlooking the secluded wooded property, and numerous seating areas made for a truly enjoyable stay. Cribbage, cards, family & friends meals at the large dining table, well-appointed kitchen and so much more made this visit to the North Shore one of our favorites. I couldn't have asked for anything more!

We had a wonderful time at the Lutsen Lookout. It’s probably the cleanest VRBO we have stayed in. Our kids had a wonderful time as well. The sauna was a plus after a long day on the mountain. The winery is a must see as well. This place has a great location - we will for sure be back. Thank you for the hospitality.

We had a fantastic stay at this VRBO! The location was great (only a few minute drive to Lutsen ski hill, 1 mile to winery and quick drive to various hiking trails). The house was set up with anything you could need for cooking or just hanging out with friends. Easy communication with the hosts. Would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Host profile image
We have both enjoyed traveling and exploring the US and many Countries overseas. The North shore of Minnesota has always been a special place with magnificent beauty. We're now able to spend time and share this property with friends, family and you!

Why they chose this property

Lutsen Lookout was built for luxury and privacy while maximizing the views or Lake Superior. Lutsen Lookout is a very comfortable 3000 sq ft home with an open design. It's located on 5.2 private acres of pristine land and surrounded by 100's of acres of State and Federal land. Nearby restaurants, bars, shopping areas and activities make it an ideal location. You can cross county ski, hike and snowmobile right from the front door. Due to the remote access, all-wheel or 4-wheel drive is required for winter rentals.

What makes this property unique

There is access to a snowmobile trail which brings you to a groomed cross county ski trail ... right from the cabin. Downhill skiing at the Lutsen Mountain is just a mile away. For warmer weather enjoy the nearby Lake Superior Hiking Trail, the Gitchee Gumee bike trail, Gondola rides the Alpine Slide or leisurely walks along Lake Superior beaches. We are surrounded by woods, privacy and wildlife. Ideal for 2-3 families or couples. Nearby restaurants and establishments include North Shore Winery (1-mile) Papa Charlies (2 miles), Lutsen Lodge (2 miles), Moguls Grille and Tap Room (2 miles), Coho Cafe (7 miles), Cascade Lodge (10 miles) and some great brew pubs and restaurants in Grand Marias (19 miles)
