Welcome to our beloved family home on a quiet cove on Lake Superior with rare pebble beach. Awesome location on highly desirable “cascade beach road” for privacy and a great place to stroll or bike. This open and comfortable home has amazing views, three decks, new“Room & Board” furniture, new mattresses & linens, and fresh lighting. Amazing views from nearly every room and large lakeside decks envelope you in nature, while comfy updated furnishings and a gas fireplace make it cozy when you want to stay in. This home is along “cascade beach road”, a long, quiet gravel frontage road along Hwy 61. The benefit is extra peace and a great place for a stroll or bike ride. Entertainment: Smart TV and fast WiFi. Wide collection of classical and jazz CDs for the stereo (we're old school like that.) Lots of board games in the cupboards, and binoculars too. Even a piano!! Sea Kayak, canoe, PFDs, fishing rods in garage. AREA: The Gitchi Gammi paved bike trail starts just a few miles south of us and runs for miles and miles along the lake… or, pick it up just north of us and bike right into the wonderful coastal town of Grand Marais! Cascade River State Park, with hiking and waterfalls, is just a few miles away from our home, as is Lutsen Mountains complete with alpine slide, gondola, mountain biking, hiking, and of course XC and downhill skiing. We can provide suggestions for day trips, hiking areas, and outdoor adventures! Families with Kids: There is a pack-and-play on site (under the bunk beds.) There is one set of steep stairs, but it is fairly easy to gate them off and use only on the main floor. There is no bathtub but the shower has a long sprayer hose that works great. The cove and beach are wonderful for rock-skipping and wading, but children should NEVER be on the rocks unaccompanied. We have two toy cabinets filled with toys and games. Groups: Please look over bedroom details, photos, capacity limit carefully to make sure it will fit your needs. Kitchen: Full kitchen includes oven, gas range, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, plates, utensils, cookware, baking items, fry daddy, indoor s'mores maker, crockpot, pancake griddle. For outdoors, there are marshmallow sticks, solo stove (or just make a fire on the rocks!), and a small charcoal grill. PETS: NO pets allowed of any kind due to allergies. NORTH SHORE REALITIES: This home is 70 years old. We do get the occasional mouse. We have a service and there may be bait traps and glue traps down. (No open poison!) In a wet summer the mosquitoes can get intense and you will want to be careful about doors and screens. In the fall, we can get cluster flies inside the master bedroom - they don't bite but they are gross and will need to be swept up. (Tip: These 3 inconvenient pests are a universal challenge for all homes in this area. If other listings don’t mention, they are not being transparent.). Mobility notes: While there is a small lip at the threshold to enter into the home, you can be very comfortable here without ever climbing stairs. There is a bedroom and 3/4 bath on the main floor (with a spray shower hose), along with the main living spaces. There are no additional handrails and doorways are standard size. Whole house Message through Airbnb app for prompt response. Cell phone provided after booking. Please let us know if there is anything you need! Cascade Beach Road in Lutsen Must have car. *In the winter / snow… you will need 4-wheel-drive or AWD to get up/down the driveway (it is always plowed, but it's steep.... in the winter, 2-wheel drive cars WILL get stuck at the bottom.) We will allow for early checkin or late checkout whenever possible, but often this is not an option in the peak of summer. Our cleaner is awesome. Toiletries, dish soap, etc. are all provided. If we're missing anything PLEASE let us know!
