I have rented many vacation homes but this one was by far the nicest I have ever stayed in. Exactly as described but with all kinds of little touches like shampoo, coffee, board games comfortable beds. Spectacular views and a very friendly and accommodating host. Little bear lodge is the best! Highly recommend.

We loved staying at Little Bear Lodge. We had 2 couples and enjoyed each having our own space for sleeping, but also ample space to hang out together. The kitchen was well stocked and the location was great. We enjoyed being able to see Lake Superior and lots of trees...a highlight was seeing a rainbow over the lake one afternoon. I would consider staying here again.

Wonderful cabin that has what you need. It's in a secluded wooded area that was perfect for viewing the night sky. Also, very close to Lutsen Mountain, making it a quick drive to experience the Summit Gondola and Alpine Slide. If you're a golfer...make sure to book a tee time at Superior National. So much to see and do. Will definitely plan another stay!

Perfect Place on the North Shore

What an amazing property. We were able to take in all of the North Shore beauty including staying in the woods with a quiet place to take walks on the private road to getting to Grand Marais in about 20 minutes. It's a slice of paradise!

Can’t say enough about this property. If you’re looking for solitude with incredible views, and plenty of outdoor activities, Little Bear is it! The house is built so perfectly for functionality and purpose, and has so much to offer, IMO.Well situated for access to everything, winery, Lutsen mountain, Superior Nat. Golf club, bike trails, etc…………Stars at night were phenomenal!!!And don’t forget to hit Lockport for a great Breakfast. Host Brennan is a great communicator as well.

Perfect location, easily accessible to the best of the North Shore, but tucked away on a private wooded lot. Beds were very comfortable and house was very clean. Ample space inside the house and outside with 2 decks. The view from the second floor deck can’t be beat.Would love to return.
