We love Lutsen and Caribou Highlands! The only thing that I can complain about is that the wifi connection is so weak that u can't stream in Netflix. This is really a problem when there are maybe 10 tv channels.....we may not be there to watch tv but when u have kids u need some options....in this day and age... More

We stayed at the resort in August 2012. Beautiful place, nice accommodation. Our kids and grandkids can't wait to go there this summer again. I would recommend Caribou Highlands to everybody. Book in advance to get a good deal.

We stayed here for spring break 2013. The ski in / ski out was convenient. the 2 bedroom townhouse was perfect for the 5 of us. Decor is fine - about what you would expect for the location and price. Try to hit check in at off hours - it seems to take a little while. Our Townhouse was very... More

We loved Unit 620 with its 2 story stone fireplace, beautiful appliances in the kitchen and comfortable beds and bedding in the 2 spacious bedrooms. Beautiful view of Moose Mountain. Ski In and Ski Out was very convenient. Perfect weather, great ski conditions and the views of Lake Superior were amazing. On Site restaurant "Moguls" was marginal. Bring your own... More

nice location but overall kind of grimy. The restaurant and bar are nice and fun, but the common indoor areas and the grounds are dirty with garbage and litter all over. It doesn't look like anyone has walked around the grounds and picked things up for several weeks! 1 person working 2 hours a day at general cleanliness would be... More

I am not reviewing the gorgeous scenery, not even the very decent restaurant. It is all about the accommodation. In our case a 2 bedroom Poplar Townhome, unit 680. The main floor is nice enough with full kitchen and living room. It has a lovely large window with partial view of the slopes and is surrounded by beautiful large trees.... More

We have such fond memories of our visit to Caribou Highlands during the summer of 2012! As I'm looking to plan a vacation for this summer, I'm just hoping to find a new area to explore that's as wonderful as this was.

Nice to ski in and ski out. Moguls bar was close, a bit small but nice. The Ice Bar was something to see but nothing too special. We rented two townhouses and they fit our needs and were nice with indoor fireplaces. Kitchen had the supplies we needed with ice maker. The hot tub by the townhouses was relatively small... More

This condo has an upper floor with a bunk bed and a queen right next to it in a tiny space, which is open to the kitchen and living area below. Each floor has a small bathroom. Kitchen and dining were okay and well equipped but... More
