This "rustic modern cabin" is really a luxury home, brand new, in a beautiful location with golf course and Lake Superior views from the gorgeous living room and gourmet kitchen. Pristinely clean, beautifully designed, super comfortable, tons of space with different places to hang out. Kitchen has everything you need (we cooked 3 of the 5 nights we were there), including wide selection of spices and cooking oils! Beds and bedding luxurious, bathrooms fully stocked with fluffy towels, shower has good pressure and lots of hot water. Games in the cupboard, blankets for cool evenings, gas fireplace on a timer so you don't have to worry if you turned it off, side bar with barstools and USB outlets if you need to check email. This is a glowing description but I promise the real thing is even better.
We walked to the winery, played games in the screen porch and in front of the fireplace. Lutsen Mtn ski resort is less than 5 mins away. Grocery shopping nearby is only for essentials so plan ahead to stock up on your drive if you're planning on cooking.
Todd was extremely helpful and available, checked in and offered help with whatever we might need. Really went to full extent of hospitality - including friendly warning about speed patrols on the drive up the shore! Access via lock box was easy (we are frequent travelers and often find lock box access doesn't work or is way too tricky resulting in frustrating delays on arrival - not here - was very simple and straightforward.)
Lutsen Mountain Townhome - 2 Mi to Lake Superior! is a vacation home that provides guests a comfortable place to stay in Lutsen with ski-to-door access and free Wifi.

I have usually stayed closer to Grand Marais but I did like the Tofte location. I explored trails both south and north of Tofte and the stores in Lutsen are nearby. I also enjoyed the North Shore Winery and I was especially impressed by the Schroeder Baking Company as a food option. Other food options are available in Lutsen, Tofte and Schroeder that I may try on future trips. Overall I would consider Tofte or Lutsen as a top location for my next visit to the North Shore. The only downside is the distance from Grand Marais.

The resort is between Tofte and Lutsen.
The resort is between Tofte and Lutsen. The latter has more to offer vacationers with the ski resort and several dining options. However there are many resorts along the shore between the two towns. The gondola ride at Lutsen Mt to see the fall colors was exceptional. We had a good dinner at Blue Fin and a great, although pricey, dinner at Lutsen Resort. Both dining rooms had wonderful views of Lake Superior. A short day trip to Grand Marais was also fun. It's a trendy fishing village with shops, restaurants and other activities.

Located near the Temperance River and Temperance State Park for great hiking, lake shore picnicking, beach activities, fly fishing, and waterfalls. Tofte has a post office, Holiday station, gift shops, groceries, and several eating establishments. Our favorite was the Blue Fin for great food and fine dining. We stayed at Cliff Dwellers just north of Tofte where every room has a balcony on the cliff edge to view and experience the beauty of Lake Superior. Tofte is only a few minutes from Lutsen and an easy half hour drive to Grand Marais.

We love the North Shore of Lake Superior, with it's Big Water and little mountains - so like other places in N. America, and so unique at the same time! Tofte has wonderful food, other great lodging in the area (though spendy at other facilities), an interesting history and beautiful setting.
Tofte is close to most of what's available to do and enjoy along the "middle" of the North Shore, and a good base for hiking and day-tripping.

Our stay was during the Covid ordeal so restaurants were not open. We had planned for this and brought our own food. The hiking up various places around Tofte is worth the trip, especially liked hiking up (away from the lake) at Temperance River State Park.

Tofte is in the perfect location for visiting all the state parks on the North Shore. It is also a short distance from Grand Marais, and you can go to Betty's Pies on the way. You can rent bicycles and kayaks in Tofte and there is also a nice supermarket.
As the name implies, the Cliff Dweller on Lake Superior is located on a cliff high above Lake Superior and every room has a large balcony overlooking the lake. It was wonderful sitting on the balcony at sunset and having my breakfast there in the morning, and just as wonderful was falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing into the rocks below. On top of that, the staff were very friendly, the room was clean and appeared to be recently updated, and there was coffee and blueberry muffins in the sunroom in the morning.
Absolutely a “10!” Pride of ownership and management is a good way to describe Cliff Dweller. Our room was very updated & clean with nice beds, bedding, & towels. An extra bonus treat was delicious muffins & coffee in the lobby in the morning & was a great perk after skiing all day.
Manager, Angelia, is a pleasure to meet and chat with.
Thank you for a lovely stay! My husband & I travel a lot and we highly recommend Cliff Dweller for your next stay in Tofte, MN.
It was a very good location to the state parks and lots of waterfalls in the area. It was a very cozy place. We enjoyed our stay. It was definitely nice having the garage to pull into so we could load & unload our belongings. We seen deer every night right out the back door.
The views to the lake were wonderful, we left our balcony door open at night to listen to the waves. In a very good location, just a few miles to Grand Marais and parks.
