About this property

  • Please note: Vrbo may display Ai generated property information about our home that is not accurate. Our property is not located on a river, does not have a lake view or patio, and these automated details cannot be edited by the owner.

    September is one of the best times to experience Lutsen. Ride the Summit Express Gondola to Moose Mountain for panoramic fall-color views, explore nearby maple-filled backroads and hiking trails then enjoy our quiet setting in Superior National Forest after your adventures.

    Lutsen Mountains' Summit Express Gondola runs daily through October 18, with extended hours on September 19, September 26 and October 3, and takes visitors to Moose Mountain for expansive views over the Sawtooth Mountains and Lake Superior, perfect for anyone who wants the mountaintop experience without hiking up there.

    The Alpine Slide is just up Ski Hill Road, it runs fall weekends Sept. 12–13, 19–20, 26–27 and Oct. 3–4, it's great fun for ALL ages.

    Who needs the hassle of flying when you can be someplace truly spectacular for less than a tank of gas? Come up north, fresh air and time in nature will do you good, body, mind and spirit.

    Charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath vacation home in the heart of Lutsen, it's a recreational paradise.

    Our home was professionally decorated and it's comfortably furnished. The master bedroom suite offers a private retreat after a hard day at play. There's a whirlpool for two and a private bath and every window offers views of mountains, trees or Lake Superior.

    Bring your bikes or walking shoes — the Gitchi-Gami State Trail is just 1/4 mile down Ski Hill Road from our Lutsen home. Recently ranked No. 3 Best Recreational Trail in the 2026 USA TODAY 10BEST Readers’ Choice Awards, this paved North Shore trail offers a beautiful way to enjoy Lake Superior views, with current sections leading toward Temperance River State Park and Cross River.

    Hundreds of miles of spectacular hiking trails criss cross the forests and mountains. Mountain biking and horseback riding are available at the top of the hill. Kids of all ages will love the Alpine Slide just up the road. Ride the new 8 passenger Gondola to the top of Moose Mountain and have lunch on the deck of the chalet, it's a spectacular view! Golfers, Superior National Golf course offers 27 holes of beautiful scenery and challenging golf right across Ski Hill Road. Walk to the North Shore WInery across Lodge Lane.

    Set in Superior National Forest with no buildings behind it, just lots of trees. It's the ideal vacation home for families and friends. Close to everything you love about the north shore, but away from the busy resorts.

    Once you stay at a privately owned vacation home, you'll never want to stay in a hotel again.

Wonderful Cabin just down the hill from Lutsen Ski Mt.

Great location to stay for those skiing at Lutsen Mt, which is just a mile up the hill. Cozy cabin is spacious and well equipped. Located in a quiet location, surrounded by forest. Check out the local winery just a short walk up the hill! Would definitely stay again.

We loved Jo's place. Very comfortable, and "easy to operate" because she gives great instructions. The location was fantastic. We enjoyed a bonfire out back, and spent a lot of time on the back porch, or in front of the stone fireplace. We made all of our breakfasts and a few meal there. The kitchen is well stocked with useful tools and appliances. Highly recommend it to anyone!
