Used to be awesome I think? It s still really cool, but they re under new ownership and some small things were annoying. Here s my list:

Pool closed first day.
Limited shuttle service to skiing. Two vans out of service.
Breakfast in dining room - requested window and they wouldn t seat us at window even though there were only two other couples eating in the entire dining room.
Hot water and hot chocolate in lobby are always luke warm.
Bathrooms near dining room are dirty in the morning.
Stairway down to beach not shoveled.

We paid about $160/night for a small value room not facing the lake. Lutsen is a real charming place and I hope they can iron out some of the small details like these so that they can retain the quality it s known for. It s still really fun and there are many activities and opportunities to relax near a hot fire on a cold winter night.
