Perfect location

If you're looking for a location that is close to all of the cute things in this area of the world, but still private and quiet, this is an ideal location. I traveled with my sister and we got to have lots of late night talking while also laughing at rorously where we disturbed no one. The sauna was a real treat.

Great Place to Stay

We stayed 4 nights. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, our daughters enjoyed the sauna, the owners were extremely communicative. I would highly recommend this VRBO if you are visiting Lutsen/Tofte/Northern MN.

Comfortable and clean

We enjoyed our stay. The beds were super comfortable (including the sofa bed), and the place was well laid out for two travelers to share. The sauna is a very nice touch. Location very convenient to both Grand Marais and Two Harbors, as well as hiking destinations.

Honeymoon/Hiking

Our stay was great! We enjoyed the locations proximity to town, but also just far enough that it did not impact the serenity of our outdoor experience. The housing itself was wonderful and everything was easy to use. The only update that would be needed would be to trim some of the taller grass around the outdoor spaces, making it easier to enjoy the patio and fireplaces outback.

Garage apartment

Not really impressed. You arrive and your vrbo is in an old garage. It wasn’t very cold outside but the floors were freezing. Either wear your shoes in the place or freeze your feet. The one nice thing was the sauna.

Great place for couples going to Lutsen!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Bear Den. The space was clean, the kitchen was very well stocked (with two different types of coffee makers and an electric tea kettle, which is a rarity) and the sauna was an absolute treat! The hosts were also great and reached out several times during our stay to make sure everything was good. I highly recommend the space for couples visiting the north shore. We will be back next year!

Convenient location in Tofte

Garage studio apartment with the necessities. We were in the area to hike, so didn’t spend a lot of time there. First impression driving in wasn’t great as the property was overgrown and the exterior of the garage needs some TLC, but the inside was clean and functional.

Lutsen 99er 2022

The apartment is well appointed with nice furnishings and while it says you can sleep 4, 2 is about all I would recommend. It will sleep 4 though with 1 bedroom and a sleeper sofa. If I were to visit this area again I would definitely consider this place for future trips.

Tranquil time away

I had a lovely time staying at the cozy bear den. It's really close to nearby hiking trails, which cut-down travel time and left more time for relaxation. It rained most of the days I was there, so I unfortunately didn't get to use the firepit area. The layout is a little different (they made the most of the space!) so I spent extra time reading and lounging in bed. The sauna is perfection after a long day in the woods. Book this place if you're looking for relaxation in nature. I'll definitely be back!

Quiet, yet great location

Beautiful property, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Still close to tons of hikes and centrally located to cover the north shore. Car charger worked great and the sauna hit the spot after a long day of hikes and touring. Even though our original rental (small apartment) had a water leak issue just before our stay, the property managers put us up in the main house. We are more than satisfied how this issue was handled. The property managers went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of!

Loved the Bears Den

We absolutely fell in love with the Bear's Den and felt right at home. The owners spared no expense and definitely have an eye for detail. It was very enjoyable for us to spend a few days celebrating our Anniversary in this secluded location, but still nearby to Tofte and Lake Superior. The views out the front door as we headed out for runs were superb and even had a great view of the Lake. Our hosts were extremely quick to respond and helped with any questions we had. Our favorite was the Sauna and attached garage. The Sauna is plenty big and warmed up quickly. They even had eucalyptus drops for the water to create a warm aroma while steaming! Driving into the attached garage was an unexpected convenience that we definitely appreciated even for the summer months. The patio out back was fun to grill out on and take in the peaceful ambiance of this location. And to top it off their was a washer and dryer on site we ended up using too. Wow!! Thank you for a wonderful stay! We will definitely be recommending and hope to come back again.
