"Beautiful home on Lutsen Mountain! We enjoyed the fireplace--and the fun record player and well-stocked games. The house is beautiful and provided us with a great gathering place."
Amber S.
"Beautiful, tranquil space and setting. We arrived the day after Christmas and immediately decompressed. We skied at Lutsen while we were here and it was a breeze to get in and out every day. Highly recommend. Would definitely come back!"
Eloise D.

Meggie M.
"We loved the location and felt at home instantly. It was pretty cold outside so the heated kitchen/living room floors and the fireplace made it very cozy. The furniture and the beds were very comfortable and the added touches were all a nice treat - well stocked kitchen, candles, good coffee, bath salts, fuzzy throw blankets, etc. We wanted to explore the area in the snow so the sauna, fire pit and soaking tub really made the home perfect for a winter escape. I didn't want to leave and cant wait to go back."
Brent I.
"We had an amazing girls trip. The home was beautiful and Jess was an amazing host. The house was cozy, quiet, and comfortable. The beds were super comfortable as well. We will absolutely recommend this place to our family and friends. Thank you again ☺️"
Courtney L.
"We had a great time at McAllister! We were only here for two nights but thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is really pretty, and has a lot of things to do even if you stay in. We enjoyed playing mini golf and board games. The kitchen was fully functional, which we ended up using a bit to prepare hot chocolate and breakfast. Back of the house opens to a beautiful park, and there are a lot of hikes and lakeshore points short drive away.
Jessie was also very helpful with everything, she replied quickly whenever we needed help with something, she also graciously gave us recommendations on things to do around the area. We also loved the complimentary wine!"
Ammar T.
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this house. It was just as advertised with unique features like a children's nook, record player, sauna, fireplace and a mini-golf green. We were there during the shoulder season between skiing and summer when less tourists come, and less businesses were open but it didn't matter since the house was it's own attraction and there was still plenty to do in nature around you. The house is just a few steps from the golf course and, with the cold, no one was golfing it kind of felt like a giant backyard. The cold gave us a chance to enjoy the sauna, which was easy to operate and very comfortable for 4 adults or 2 adults and 5 kids. Close to many waterfalls, rock hunting spots, an Oberg mountain hiking loop that is doable for most abilities, and quite scenic. This place has it all!"
Peter B.
"Such a clean, modern, perfectly located, and cozy place when visiting the North Shore. We truly enjoyed being within walking distance of the winery (lovely experience), the open floor plan, space to cook, the fireplace and fire pit, and views. Can’t say enough! Book it without reservation."
Dina S.
"We had a wonderful stay! The house was fantastic- warm, modern, clean, very livable with several different fun spaces to spread out! The kids loved the putting green, fire pit, and the little TV nook on the third floor! We enjoyed several wonderful home cooked meals using the fantastic kitchen and grill! The sauna was a wonderful way to top off the day! We enjoyed the local area from the alpine slides and winery to the local rivers and hiking. Our hosts were also very responsive and a big help when needed! Thanks for a great stay!"
Jeffrey R.
"Great location and nice new cabin."
Jonathan T.
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and spotless set in a wonderful environment. We make good use of the sauna and the fire pit surrounded by autumn leaves."
Phil V.
"Great location, we loved the fire pit and sauna! The road was a little busier than we had hoped and it is very close to the golf course, but it was still peaceful. Beautiful house that was cozy and comfortable."
Jenna S.
"We stayed here to celebrate my birthday and it was perfect location. Did the gondola and went to the winery. Perfect distance to everything! The home was spotless and clean. Definitely would recommend this place!"
Kaitlyn
"Our stay at The McAllister was amazing! Beautiful home with all the amenities we needed. The only concern I had that could’ve been better was I wished the master bathroom was cleaner. When we checked in, I noticed a lot of hair still left on the bathroom floor. It was no big deal. I cleaned it but it made me questioned how the property is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after each guest visits. This was the only negative experience I had at the property. But overall, it was a beautiful home and we enjoyed our stay."
Mai L.
"We had an excellent dream stay at this property! The house is located in a stunning wooded area with a beautiful, open layout and is super comfortable with quality amenities. Its proximity to a sprawling golf course and attractions like Lutsen Mountains made exploring, a breeze.
Our host Jess communicated every detail to ensure a seamless and comfortable stay from check-in to check-out. Thank you for helping us create unforgettable memories!”."
Mohit B.
"Gorgeous house with lots of local recommendations!"
Sara H.
"I’m someone who places a high value on the quality of accommodations during family trips, and if you're looking for the perfect Airbnb to enjoy the fall foliage, this is your best choice. The place is peaceful, spotless, and well-equipped—with a BBQ grill, sauna, and our family’s favorite: the outdoor fire pit. Most importantly, the host is incredibly kind and responsible, which means a lot to us. If we ever return to Lutsen, this will definitely be our first choice again. 100% recommended!"
Pei H.
"Beautiful home, good location. Outdoor space was great. More than enough room for our crew. Highly recommend."

"⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
The McAllister was home to us for a fun-filled birthday weekend. The home's large windows and stunning interior is captivating the moment you step in. We enjoyed spending time in the sauna, more times that we can count! The bonfire had plenty of firewood that Jessie was generous enough to provide, and you get a great viewing spot for star gazing. Don't skip out on using the telescope! There were extra cozy blankets and plenty of pillows for cozying up around the living areas for movies and playing video games that we brought up. The den was sweet for getting cozy and reading. The kitchen is well stocked with serving bowls and plates, but if you plan on cooking at the McAllister, consider bringing seasonings from home or visiting the nearby markets for the little things.
Jessie is a fantastic host and was so kind and easy to communicate with. She is thoughtful, wishing us a great stay and was great with checking in before and after our stay. I can easily recommend booking!"
Dimika N.
"Beautiful home but change of seasons made interior first floor bedroom chilly on first level and overly warm on second floor for us and habitat destruction for new build next door ... not ideal for us. But, a new and lovely home and wish owners best of luck."
Linda T.
"Perfect place to stay for a golf trip! Everything is super nice and updated but it still has that north woods cabin feel. Located right on Superior National golf course. Great outside amenities!"

"This is an amazing place to stay. I am someone who does a lot of research on rentals we go to as a family, and I would highly recommend it. Great location to Lutsen Mountain, mountain biking trails, and Grand Marais. Our three teenagers loved the house and we all fit very well. Sauna was a hit! Hosts were very quick to answer all our questions. Would definitely stay here again."

"We loved our stay! You can tell so much thought went into the design of the home. The outdoor space was a hit for our family and we all enjoyed the sauna, fire pit and putting green. The amenities were perfect! Great kitchen with high end appliances, beautiful furnishings and an all around beautiful spot. Top notch!"
Taylor
"We have stayed at many north shore vacation rentals and have never been so close to so many activities! We walked to the winery and bike path. Only a 1 mile drive to Lutsen Mountain with an amazing gondola ride, alpine slide, and several food options. We also found the Grandview Beach 5 minutes away and had it to ourselves two days in a row!
This is a kid friendly haven with the putt putt hole, “secret loft” and beautiful outdoor space. So many card and board games to keep them busy.
Adults will enjoy the pristine amenities, furnishings and comfortable beds. They’ve thought of everything. It’s truly the perfect place and we hope to visit again.
Highlight: utilize their recommended in- house chef and take a night off from cooking."
Aaron
"We had an amazing stay at The McAllister. The house was stunning and clean, modern but still inviting. We loved the fun touches like the loft, record player, and putting green. And the sauna and fire pit were so relaxing after a day of exploring. Jess was so kind and responsive. She made sure we had everything we needed and provided great recommendations. We will definitely recommend to friends and genuinely hope to return!"
Kate
"We enjoyed every part of staying at the McAllister! The home is absolutely beautiful and had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable vacation with our family.
Our hosts, Aaron and Jess, were great to work with and so helpful. We enjoyed so many of their suggestions for activities in the area. There is so much to do and see!
I highly recommend staying at the McAllister!"
