Escape to “Shared Summit” on Minnesota’s North Shore

For years our family has been visiting Lutsen Mountains to enjoy one of the best ski resorts in the Midwest. When we discovered all the incredible things the north shore has to offer the rest of the year, we had to have a home here. We wanted a place to “get away from it all” and connect with family and friends. We bought our cozy 2-bedroom townhome that we affectionately call “Shared Summit”.

We’ve fully stocked our place with kitchenware, Coffee/Tea/Hot Cocoa bar, wood burning fireplace (free wood provided by the resort) and comfortable sleeping arrangements for 6 guests (8 guests if you don’t mind being ‘cozy’ and sleeping on a pull-out couch). All of our art pieces are of local landmarks and sites that you can actually go and see in person. We have a Loft bedroom (The Waterfall Room) sleeps two people on a queen bed. Our lower-level bedroom (The Ski Room) sleeps 2 on a double bed and 2 on a twin bunk bed. Other unique amenities we’ve included for your enjoyment in our townhome…
• Shoe/Boot Dryers for post skiing and hiking adventures
• A multitude of card games, and an Infinity Game Table with 50+ digital board games for your group to enjoy
• 65” Flatscreen TV in our ‘Ski Room’ to watch a movie, or challenge a friend on the Xbox
• Complimentary hiking poles available for guests to use
• Minnesota finest coffee (Duluth Coffee) fully stocked for all of our guests

NOTE: Unfortunately, our 3 story Townhome is not handicap accessible. Each level has 8+ stairs to navigate.

Shared Summit is nestled in Minnesota’s North Shore Sawtooth Mountain range in the beautiful Caribou Highlands Resort on Lutsen Mountain. You’ll have the privilege of using resort amenities such as…
• Outdoor Firepits
• Pool (indoor & outdoor)
• Indoor Hot tub
• Indoor Workout Facilities
• Ski In/Out Access to Moose Mountain (Seasonal)

Perfect spot for our family: kids loved the game table and basement solitude, location couldn't be easier for in-out, and we really enjoyed being able to relax to those views!

Overall, this place was fantastic! Plenty of space for our family of 5, comfy beds, great kitchen, coffee bar, fireplace, use of the indoor pool/hot tub at the Caribou Highlands lodge, the infinity game table, the ski in-ski out access, Shayla our host was on top of everything, all 5 stars. A few things to note: 1. There is NOT a in-unit sauna as is stated in the title of the listing. There is no sauna at all. It needs to be taken off the listing title. Easy fix. 2. We were skiing with little kids and the ski in ski out was GREAT. You get right on the moose access trail from behind the townhouses and it is a gradual downhill ski to the Caribou Express lift on Moose mountain. My 6 year old was able to do it with a little help from mom and dad pulling him along, but if you can skate on your skis, you will be fine. It was a game changer to be able to come easily back to the townhouse for lunch each day instead of paying crazy prices at the chalet for food. It is well worth the price tag if you are wondering if the ski-in, ski-out is really worth it. It is!

We had an excellent stay here! The home is clean, cozy and comfortable. The coffee and hot chocolate bar is a perfect touch, especially when paired with ease of ski-in and ski-out. Thanks again for a great time.

We had so much fun visiting the area. It was fall and luckily the weather cooperated. The games and infinity table at the cabin were a hit with all of us. We would stay here again if we are in the area
