4 Bedroom Cottage in Lutsen

SweetWater Cottage is nestled along a secluded stretch of Lake Superior shoreline, far from Hwy 61. Its idyllic setting amidst the dynamic boreal forest of its private 3 acres is only exceeded by its distinctively designed interior and painstakingly curated décor. With an uncompromising commitment to authenticity, this entire property is meant to capture the enchantment of the North Shore and infuse it with the distinctive Scandinavian influence that is so prominent in this region's past.
With 4 private bedrooms, 2 spacious bathrooms, and an open floor plan ideal for gatherings, SweetWater is perfect for hosting groups of families or friends. From interior to exterior, this cottage embodies a comprehensive approach that is unmatched in attention to detail and unrelenting in offering an inspired sense of welcome to all who visit. SweetWater can accommodate up to 8 guests. As idyllic as SweetWater is, the cottage itself is only the beginning …
SweetWater Cottage is situated in the heart of the most legendary and spectacular section of the entire North Shore. Except for a few private parcels of land right along the Lake Superior Shore, SweetWater essentially sits in the middle of pristine Cascade River State Park. Hundreds of miles of Sawtooth Mountains trails (hiking in the summer, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter) are accessible right out the front door of the cabin. Cascade Lodge Restaurant & Pub is just 1.5 miles away and features great food, drinks, and frequent live music. A trail leading to Cascade Falls is only 2 miles from SweetWater's door. And within a 30-minute drive, everything the North Shore is known for is accessible: world-class hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking trails, skiing, galleries, restaurants, NorthHouse Folk School, and a vibrant live music scene. After all, SweetWater sits in the heart of Cook County and Grand Marais, which was named by Travel & Leisure magazine as "America's Best Small Lake Town" in 2023!

Summary: We took our adult children on a long weekend and could not have been happier with this cottage! Located between Lutsen for Skiing and Grand Marais for shopping and eating out. Perfect set up with two rooms and a bathroom on each side. Beautiful open kitchen, living area with a huge table for eating and playing games. The view of the lake is breathtaking! We even got to watch a few ships go by!

Summary: This trip was our first trip away from our two kids (2 year old and a 5 month old). Since the birth of our youngest my dad unexpectedly passed. Our wedding anniversary is coming up in early October. Needless to say, this cabin provided a wonderful space for us to celebrate the recent and upcoming joys while also mourning the loss of my dad. It was amazingly clean, beautifully decorated, and the location was perfect. Hearing the waves was such a soothing experience. We loved being able to cook meals at the house and just relax. We will absolutely recommend to friends. We hope to be back in the future!

Summary: A lovely Scandinavian themed home... lots of light, windows with beautiful views of Lake Superior and the garden filled with flowers. Wonderfully equipped kitchen (if you like to cook).... easy access to Grand Marais, Cascade Lodge, and the waterfall hiking parks (Cascade, Temperance, Tetegouche).... We left today, and miss the wonderful sounds of the waves on the rocks

Summary: Sweetwater cottage was the perfect retreat for our extended family vacation. Plenty of room for the 8 of us, well-equipped kitchen, breathtaking views of the lake, natural light, easy access to the rocky shoreline and close proximity to area attractions. We appreciated the house layout with two bedrooms and a bathroom at each end of the house - making it easy for the toddlers to go to bed early and not be disturbed. The house was clean and obviously well cared for. We were lucky enough to be at the cottage during a full moon. What a treat to go to bed and see the full moon shining across the lake.

Summary: This location is so beautiful. My family booked a last minute trip up the North Shore. We couldn't believe our luck that we could secure such a beautiful place. All the rooms have comfortable beds and the kitchen was well appointed. They even have a large kitchen aid mixer. It was a bucket list item for me to stay within a stones throw to the water. This property did not disappoint and when a blizzard blew into the area the owners let us stay another night so we could wait out the storm. So thankful for their generosity to open up their little slice of heaven.

Summary: This place was perfect for us. We were four couples that went up for four days and three nights to Nordic Ski, snowmobile, rest and have some good food. Due to lack of snow, we only snowmobiled a little, but thanks to the home and area, we all enjoyed our time. We ate out a few times, ate in a few times, went for walks, went to the North Shore Winery and did a little shopping in Grand Marais. The four bedrooms were separated nicely by the bathrooms…no snoring noise. ;) We highly recommend this home, and will probably be back next year.

Summary: Yep, this place is even better than the photos. The owners have strived for a “hygge” feel and have succeeded, big time. It is a cozy and comfortable place. Huge and well-equipped kitchen, amazing views of the lake. This property is one of the farthest from Highway 61 in the area, which makes for a private and quiet experience. Deck is great for sitting. Other reviews are correct that it may be difficult for elderly or less able people to get in and out of the bathtubs, which one must also do to shower. This is the kind of place that you hate to leave, and that you immediately scheme to come back to. Communication with owners flawless.
