We have been coming to the North Shore for 30 years and until recently have always stayed at the Lutsen Sea Villas. After a few years away we thought we d try again and stayed at the Cliff townhouses. The location is lovely and the beach is perfect. Parking is good and the staff are helpful and friendly. The accommodations are worn and tired, the kitchen was poorly equipped (limited and broken utensils for example) which is a problem when more people are eating in and for nearly $500 a night I expect enough garbage bags and coffee filters for the entire stay. It feels like an overall kitchen supply assessment is needed. Overall the site is lovely and the details need attention.
