Cedar Cliff Retreat - Stunning 1920's Craftsman on Lake Superior Shore

The house and view are beautiful

Beautiful living room and dining space. Well stocked kitchen. Awesome view of Lake Superior.

Gorgeous Arts and Crafts vintage home on Lake Superior. Beautifully furnished with period pieces and lots of cozy quilts. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked with cookware and the huge fireplace was a delight to sit by. It was a wonderful home for my family's New Year's gathering.

Our stay was great. A little problem with getting the code for the lock box but it was resolved. The house is a beautiful old home. We loved that there was plenty of room for all of us. The steps down to the lake were very steep so some in our party chose not to go down to the lake. The only other thing was that again some in our party would have liked a walk in shower but other than those two issues our stay was great. Loved the two screened in porches where you could hear and see the lake. Booked again for next year!

My family loves coming here for Labor Day weekend. We do boating, hiking and sightseeing.

This was a wonderful stay for our family! The location was ideal to travel to trails and waterfalls both south and north to the Canadian border. We loved the spaciousness of the home. The dining/living room and especially the large dining table allowed all 12 of us to eat together, visit, and play games. The campfire area was inviting, allowing for access to the shoreline rocks for swimming. The house was a trip to the late 1920's and early 30's when it was built and we enjoyed the beautiful woodwork and decor. The windows to the lake spanned the back of the house allowing for a wonderful view of the lake, including the amazing Sturgeon moon during our stay,. We also enjoyed both screened in porches! Our only suggestion is to make sure the oven pilot light is on for baking. None of us have gas stoves in our home and were not familiar with working with pilot lights. Except...our son who is in the restaurant industry and has experience with gas stoves and lighting pilot lights -- which allowed us to use the oven. Also, we believe one of the oven burners was not functioning because of the need to rotate our egg bakes and casseroles to ensure proper heating of each pan. But this was the only hiccup in our stay and we learned to work with it. All in all, it was a wonderful blessing for our family to live together for a week at Cedar Cliff Retreat!

Beautiful view of the water. Multiple porches to enjoy the view.

Great property with tons of sleeping room

Everyone in our group loved this house.The proximity of the house to the water was breathtaking. Everybody wanted to stay longer.

House was clean and very comfortable. The last day a black bear came for a visit!Amazing!!

Such a beautiful place to stay, especially for larger groups. We come back every year because of the incredible view and the big stone fire place and the ability to sit our entire group together for dinner and give each couple their own room.

Great views of Superior. Very accommodating for large groups.

Loved the house. Plenty of room for all. Charming old house. Very loud heating system.

Beautiful home and property. Spacious. Great view of the lake. Warm and inviting

We stayed at this property for 4 days and it was perfect, the view is amazing, it’s bigger in person than what the pictures show. it was very spacious, the campfire area was beautiful, its very quiet but we did have a stranger walk up on the property though so make sure you are locking the doors!

4th time back to Cedar Cliff ! It is the best !

We were a group of 11 ladies who’ve been visiting the north shore for decades. This was our first stay at Cedar Cliff and we thoroughly enjoyed the place. We utilized the large dining table morning and night. There are plenty of dishes, utensils, cookware and bedding. We brought an extra coffee maker since we had a larger group. We also enjoyed both screen porches, large living room and direct access to the lake. Getting down the wood stairs to the fire pit/lake was difficult for some of our older ladies but the others enjoyed sitting at the lake’s edge. It’s especially beautiful at sunrise. We were comfortable in the numerous beds and bedrooms. We split showers between evening and night since there are only two. This property is just a few miles from Lutsen Mt and maybe 20-25 min from Grand Marais. We will be staying here in the future! Beautiful property and amazing home!

Fun weekend with my children and grandchildren

The house was fun an eclectic. Lake access and view were amazing. Plenty of space for our family reunion.

Cedar Cliff is a charming home from another time. Great attention has been paid to details...the furniture, the lamps, the well-organized and furnished kitchen. The two screened porches were great for relaxing and reading. The views of the lake were suburb! We had a red full moon and red rising sun thanks to the haze. They were spectacular. And, the location, in Lutsen was perfect for hikes on all the rivers.

COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE, OWNER SHOWED UP AND WAS VERY RUDE ABOUT US USING FULL DRIVE FOR PARKING. PROPERTY WAS VERY DATED AND NOT WELL KEPT, COULLD BE FANTASTIC WITH A LITTLE MAINTENANCE.
