I think they liked it! Our latest 5 star review:

"The host was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was tremendously helpful and a wonderful communicator. The home was beautifully decorated, less than five minutes to Lutsen Mountain, and perfect for our family of five. We loved our stay and would love to come back again. Highly recommended!!!!

Wow! What a great review, thank you Melanie!

"This cabin was absolutely perfect! It was in a great location right off of Hwy 61 to serve as our home base for exploring the North Shore. Close to the winery to sit back and enjoy a glass of wine and take in some live music. Also close to the bike trail for a scenic ride on a great and mostly flat trail. The cabin was phenomenal — absolutely adorable and so very homey, spacious for us to spread out and relax, and had a wonderfully appointed kitchen so that we could cook and stay in if we felt too tired to venture back out for dinner after a long day of hiking and taking in all the sites. And Jo was a fantastic host — she was welcoming and gracious and a great resource for additional information to help us plan our adventures. Her communications were easy and helpful and set us up for a wonderful time enjoying the North Shore! I can’t say enough good things about our stay in her beautiful home!"

We tell our new to the North Shore guests they have to check out the Temperance River gorge, it's just a few miles from our 4 Lodge Lane vacation home in Lutsen. It is amazing!

The Temperance River Hiking Club Trail is a beautiful river gorge hike in Minnesota. It's unlike any other trail in the state.

The Temperance River is just a 10 minute drive from our vacation home in Lutsen and it's one of our favorites, especially this time of year when the rivers are roaring with snow run off and spring rains. Make a plan to get out your car and walk inland up the at least the cross over bridge, it is worth the short hike.
