About this cabin rental
The Lodge on Caribou Lake is a spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath log cabin that can sleep up to 10 people. Enjoy the open kitchen, dining room, and living room, boasting large wooden beams that give it a lodge feel. Take advantage of the fully equipped kitchen and large dining room table as well as a roomy island with 4 stools. For the cooler months, enjoy the warmth of the wood fireplace.
The cabin has plenty of options for outdoor eating/seating with 3 decks---two that offer a table and umbrella and another deck with two adirondack chairs. All of the decks have a view of Caribou Lake.
This beautiful cabin is located on a large lot, on a beautiful and clean 720 acre inland lake, where you can enjoy swimming, fishing, canoe/kayaking, and gorgeous sunsets. The public boat landing is less than 5 minutes from the cabin. Don't forget your fishing poles---the lake has walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike, bluegill, black crappie and many more. Use our canoe and single and tandem kayaks to explore the serene and beautiful Caribou Lake.
If you are looking for a place to party, be loud, and jet ski, this is not the place for you.
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!! If you love the outdoors, you've come to the right place! During the winter months, you can enjoy the best downhill skiing in the Midwest at Lutsen Mountain with an 8-passenger gondola and 4 mountains. They enjoy an average of 10 feet of snow annually. The area is also a prime location for snowmobiling, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing, with groomed trails within a mile of the cabin. For cross-country skiers, check out the Norpine Trail Association system.
The beautiful views of the majestic Lake Superior are a short 5-minute drive. If you want to experience some north shore culture, Grand Marais, MN, which is known for its art, food, and gorgeous views, is only 25 minutes from the cabin. Do you want to get some exercise during your trip to the north shore? It's easy to do with the 310-mile Superior Hiking Trail and numerous state parks in the area, offering the best hiking in the midwest, with numerous, picturesque waterfalls. If biking is your thing, ride along Lake Superior on the Gitchi Gami trail, or enjoy mountain biking on several trails, including Lutsen Mountain and Jackpot Trail. Finally, don't miss an opportunity to play a round of golf at the beautiful, 27-hole Superior National Golf Course, which has signature holes alongside the Poplar River.
If you are heading to the north shore to relax, you can stay indoors and enjoy the crackling fire, as well as the puzzles, books, and board games provided for our guests' enjoyment.
Although we love animals, we do not allow pets.
Note: We rent a cottage on the property to a resident of Lutsen. It is approximately 500 feet from the cabin. Our renter has two beautiful dogs that are sometimes at the cottage with him.
Note: 4WD/AWD is highly recommended once the snow starts falling.

This property was just amazing. The house is beautiful and the location gorgeous. The rustic nature was so relaxing. It has everything you need to make MN lake memories. Highly recommended.
10.0 / 10.0
The layout, up north decorating, comfy bed, fire ring, and use of kayaks combined to made our time at the cabin feel like home. The lake view from the dock is beautiful. The location is convenient to explore surrounding state parks and Grand Marais. I highly recommend it!

Our extended family had a great stay at the cabin, the second time we've done this. Two thumbs up.

For the past 3 years, I have taken my young adult son and nephew fishing in Minnesota. Each and every year, the cabin and lake selected got better with no disrespect to each earlier cabin owner.
This year was the absolute best. Beginning with Theresa and her beautiful cabin that the pictures do not give it justice. Breathtaking, spacious, and quiet.
The fishing was insane. There was not a single day we didn’t catch fish.
I believe we found our annual fishing destination for good. Theresa was prompt with her replies through the entire process.

Second time we stayed here. The location is ideal for access to excellent hiking trails. We had a rain day this year but all the games, movie dvds in the cabin as well as sometime in Grand Marais shopping easily made up for the rain. The layout gives our two families their own space. We absolutely love having a fire down by the lake watching the sunset.

We planned to snowboard and hike but this years weather didn't cooperate. We didn't snowboard due to lack of good snow conditions so we just hung out and explored the area. The cabin was perfect and fit all of our needs! Thanks for a great experience!

Clean, well stocked kitchen and baths, and super comfortable beds/pillows. Could’ve used more living room seating, but otherwise was a perfect place to relax after a day of skiing. We will likely return next year!

We had a great stay with our family over the MEA school break! We've been visiting the North Shore over 20 years & have always stayed somewhere new. This has been one of my favorite rentals so far. It was more spacious than we anticipated & we loved the living area with 2 tables & well stocked kitchen. Bunk beds for the kids, cute play area & toys for my 3 year old & also boats/canoe, games & puzzles for our teenagers. We thought we would miss the sounds of the shore, but found the lake so relaxing & beautiful! A great place for a family to stay. I hope we make it back again someday.

This was an awesome getaway! My sister's and brothers had a great time. The cabin is amazing and all nine of us were very comfortable. It was a beautiful drive into the cabin, the fall colors were amazing. We would definitely go there again. Thanks!

This was our second stay at this property. The whole family loves the set-up. Plenty of space to spread out, well-appointed kitchen, wonderful water front for kids. Caribou Lake is a special place and this cabin helped make for a great family vacation.

This was our 2nd stay at this property, 1st time in the summer (previous was during winter ski season). It was even more beautiful with the flowers blooming and the lake accessible. We enjoyed having fires outside, sitting on the deck to eat and converse and using the lake (when it was warm enough!) There were kayaks and a canoe to use which was so nice that we didn't have to bring our own. So close to hiking trails and other fun things to do. The home itself is just immaculate and we enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen to cook and the beautiful space including games and books on the shelves, as well as the toys for the kids. Thanks for another great stay and we hope to stay again!

I have rented this beautiful cabin 3 times. It is a wonderful spot for our family. We loved the inside and out! Close to Grand Marais if you are inclined to visit, yet plenty to do on Caribou Lake. We loved the fishing, camp fire and the spacious deck (s). Thank you!

The location was perfect. close to everything we wanted to to in Northern MN.
The house was very roomy for the 7 of us. The kitchen cookware was amazing. The lake was beautiful and the water was warm. A great time was had by all.

The cabin exceeded expectations. It is in a perfect location to take advantage of day hiking on the Superior Hiking Trail then returning to a spacious cabin to rest and refresh. Every little detail was thought of, from the layout, decorations, fast Wi-Fi, firewood, extra blankets, games and especially the well equipped kitchen. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire each night looking out over Caribou Lake as the sunset.

We had a great time at this excellent property. Loved the well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and furniture, fireplace, games and movies, excellent hand soap and lotion, complimentary maple syrup (yum!), cozy throw blankets, clean property, beautiful view, wildlife, and easy access and communication! And great access to Lutsen Mt. Thanks for sharing your fantastic property!

We have been doing this for over 15 years we usually start the grand kids about 7 or 8 through HS. We need a place where we can gather, your place was great for that, maybe could use another couch in the living room.
10.0 / 10.0
We had a great experience. The space was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 6 kids.
We were within minutes of Lutsen Mountain for skiing and also very close to the snowmobile trails, so all of our group was able to easily access their desired activities.
The owner was very accommodating and prompt in her communication when questions came up. We hope to return to this property in the future, but next time it will be for more that just a weekend!

With 7 beds and two couches we could easily fit our family of 8. Open kitchen/living/dining room area was perfect for family gatherings. Well stocked kitchen had all the extra gadgets we needed. We also enjoyed the extra touches to make us feel welcome and at home!

Our overall impression of the property was that we were impressed! It is an updated well-kept log cabin tucked back in the woods surrounded by snow. There was plenty of room for our group of 8 adult/teenagers. It had really everything we could have asked for: came well stocked with kitchen accessories, plenty of linens, and a very easy check-in/check-out process. I had great communication with the owner prior to our arrival. Highly recommended and thanks for a great stay!

This place was wonderful for our group of 10. The home is designed with the bedrooms off to the side so once the kids go to bed the adults can stay up chatting. The little details were really wonderful - a stair gate, good shampoo in the shower, and lots of toys and games for the kids.
We all agreed this was the best VRBO we have ever stayed in.

We’re beyond thankful for our time spent at this beautiful property. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything from a stand up mixer to crockpots and everything in between. Although we visited during the “shoulder” season were blessed with one warmer day so we enjoyed our time kayaking and did a little fishing off the dock. Mother Nature treated us to a spectacular sunset that was absolutely breathtaking. The fireplace was put to good use as the weather turned into what is typical of November. This would be a great place for skiers in the upcoming months. If your looking for a convenient home base while adventuring on the North Shore I highly recommend this property!

This log cabin met all of our needs while staying on the North Shore. We had great weather to enjoy the Lake although it was a rocky bottom which is typical throughout the Lake it looked like. We didn't have much success fishing off the dock either but that was okay. It had a great fireplace where we could enjoy the sunsets and we were even lucky enough to see the Northern Lights one night of the trip. Great hiking trails nearby and Lutsen and Grand Marais are close by, so great location to stay.

Plenty of room for a multi-generational family to spend a week together. Close to a lot of state parks and just a quick drive up to Grand Marias. We loved the location.

Loons, lake, boats! Our family had a perfect stay. The kitchen is very well stocked. Spices, waffle iron, crockpot & lots of cooking pans are all available. The drinking water is really tasty. Good supply of games & toys for little ones. Plenty of life jackets for kayaking and canoeing. The owner is very easy to contact and replies almost immediately.
We prefer to stay on Caribou Lake for swimming and fishing. Lake Superior is impressive but so cold!
Wonderful hiking is very accessible. Caribou River Wayside hike to the falls was a favorite. Nice swimming hole at Temperance River State Park (alltrails.com) but cliff jumping into the River can be dangerous.
We love staying at the Lodge & hope to return for our 3rd year!
5.0 / 10.0
Great rental. We had a group of 10 and it worked very well for us, having the bedrooms separate from the main room is nice as some could retreat to a quiet area while others could congregate. The kitchen is large and well equipped and we appreciated the kayaks and canoe. Five stars!

Amazing Cabin on Caribou!
My husband and I really enjoyed all the amenities the cabin had to offer, especially the kayaks. Private lake access was a definite plus. The cabin was clean and well stocked. Would definitely return!

Wonderful cabin on a quiet lake. Great location to enjoy the North Shore
We had a wonderful experience renting this cabin for a week. It was the perfect place! The cabin was fully stocked with spacious bedrooms, bathrooms, a TV/multi media room, plenty of water accessories, multiple decks for outdoor dining and seating and an overall wonderful quiet lake for kayaking and fishing from the dock. We didn't take the canoe out but it was nice to know it was there. The host has thought of everything. We had paper products and delightful soaps, lotions and hair products in the bathrooms and kitchen...and a kind surprise waiting on the kitchen counter.
The location is an absolute plus. So close to cute little towns, hiking and beautiful views everywhere you go. We hired a fishing guide from Little Vince's Fishing Guide Service and had a fun morning fishing up the Gunflint trail.
We wouldn't hesitate to rent this cabin again.
The host was super responsive when I needed to ask a couple of questions, including bringing multiply cars.
We hope to be back.

Perfect Getaway!
We hada wonderful stay with friends for a long weekend of skiing at Lutsen! Everything abiut the cabin was clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed.

Amazing property, attention to details
We LOVED this spacious, cozy cabin! Here with our family of 4 (kids age 3 and 8), mother/grandma and nephew (9). We appreciated the details such as nice shampoo, conditioner and lotion provided. The kids toys/books/games were really appreciated- not many places think of small kids and this was part of what drew us here. There were even nightlights which are appreciated with small kids as well as kid friendly dishes. Beautiful, immaculately clean and clear instructions and recommendations for the area. Can’t wait to stay here again! Would also love to check it out in summer as the lake is right out the door.
Just note there are several steps to go down to the front door so if mobility is an issue for you, FYI.

Amazing cabin in the woods
This place is an incredibly nice cabin in the woods. We came to ski at lutsen and it was a great distance from the ski hill. A perfect place to come back to after skiing to hang out with friends. Looks like it would be lots of fun in the summer with the lake too! The owners were very accommodating and even checked in with us as we got lots of snow.

Roomy lodge/cabin on a quiet lake, easy drive to skiing, snowshoeing trails, Lutsen mountain and Grand Marais.
