A grest spot for a restart of our yearly trip.
First impressions as walk was oh my god all the woodm after entering its dang more wood. The views were respendant and the noise wass outdoors with the rare car far off in the distance. Location was easy to get to. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and the relaxation. Many thanks for sharing your space with us.

Marathon weekend stay
We had a great weekend stay in early Sept. We cam up for the Fall Superior Trail marathon that me and a friend were running in. The location was very private, but close enough to Lutsen. We loved the house and wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more of the house and what it had to offer. We did love the wood fireplaces as it did get pretty chilly at night. Very spacious and.clean!

The property and location were outstanding! The house was beautifully appointed and situated between Lutsen and Grand Marais- allowing easy access to all of the state parks and attractions we wanted to visit. We hope to return again someday.

This is our second year staying. The location is great for us being so close to the bike race. Our only complaint this year was the living room rug didn’t appear clean so we vacuumed. I was also concerned amidst check in that our reservation was correct as I didn’t find the check in email that was sent a few days prior. Besides this it was easy to connect with owner during our stay!

The house was great. We liked that there were lots of different sitting areas around the house so people could have some space when they needed it. The sunset views from the loft were spectacular!

Great for a family
Great location and a beautiful large cabin/home. We had our three adult children and their spouses and there was plenty of room. Loved the large dining room table that was big enough for all of us to be around. It was VERY clean!

Wonderful memories made!
The Northern Comfort was just as described, if not better! We visited the area for skiing with our 11 and 13 year olds. This property is in a great location, has everything you need to cook a meal, incredibly clean and has a great layout. Highly recommend!

Nice place
Great place to stay for us and kids and grandkids. But once we started using it and cooking, we realized that it needs a good overall cleaning and several repairs. Kitchen cabinets (especially lazy Susan’s) full of crumbs, dishwasher wasn’t unloaded and is hard to pull racks in and out and doesn’t get dishes very clean, dead bugs found on kitchen window sills, bath towels are rough and need to be replaced, Teflon Skillets need to be replaced, one side of large toaster doesn’t work, light on microwave doesn’t work and screen door in basement needs to be repaired. Also floor board by couch on main level opposite of one by window, is loose.
