The Forest Chalet is a beautiful chalet with high end amenities situated in your own piece of tranquil forest. The chalet is a custom built home featuring vaulted ceilings and huge beams that frame a panoramic window wall showcasing the forest and its' wildlife right outside the great room.
Animals and birds are all around in this lovely, secluded setting that is centrally located to Lutsen Mountains, Caribou Lake, Grand Marais, Superior's North Shore and Superior National Golf Course. Enjoy the nearby hiking trails, waterfalls, state parks and fishing lakes during your stay.
In the evenings relax in the warmth and glow from the stone fireplace unwinding from your days activities in the great room or play pool down in the lower level. You may also want to enjoy the lower level outside fire pit, where you can listen to the evening song of the wildlife whilst toasting marshmallows. Alternatively, you could sit on the loft balcony and relax with a book taking in the peacefulness of your surroundings.

Excellent!

Beautiful cabin with great furnishings.
Very well maintained beautiful property in a secluded area outside of Lutsen. Furniture and beds were very comfortable and furnishings were well thought out.
Exactly what you would expect from a “cabin in the woods.”
Excellent location to experience what Lutsen has to offer - we will definitely be returning to The Forest Chalet!
Great place!
Very happy with weekend stay!
Thank you
Beautiful property, very comfortable and private.
Enjoyed the quiet location with easy access to hiking and places to dine. The home was very clean, spacious and comfortable for my family. We will book again for next year.
Nice cabin
We had a great stay at the cabin while visiting the North Shore! The cabin was clean and comfortable in a quiet wooded area. We had a couple questions and the owners responded promptly. We would rent it again.
Great place to stay!
This property was beautiful and have everything we needed, including the fireplace which we needed in August! We really appreciated all the games and books throughout the house. The kids spent hours playing pool at night. We cooked all of our meals at the house and had plenty of dishes for all of us.
From this house it was easy to get to the Alpine Slide, Sawbill, Grand Marais and Grand Portage. We were close to the Superior Hiking Trail which made for a great afternoon of hiking. At night, we were able to sit out on the balcony and watch for meteors. We would definitely recommend this property and hope to stay there again some day.
