As lake lots go, facing west is pretty nice! Add some gnarled cedars for character, a good stretch of rocky shoreline, pure waters lapping, 1 plus acres. Put it all on Caribou Lake, Lusten Minnesota and voila, perfection! The family cabin is for sale! Well-loved and maintained, imbued with Northwoods fun, relaxation and adventure from 40 plus years of lake living. Come continue the tradition! 2 bathrooms, 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 of them with built-in bunkbeds for the whole gang. A loft awaits your vision: more sleeping, giant office, movie room? Stock it with literary gems of the North and make it a library, the contemplation room. This property encourages thought, slowing down, getting back in touch with the basics. Swimming in the cool waters is transcendent. Fishing here realigns the spirit under summer cumulus or a choppy fall day that stirs the walleye. Caribou Lake is a mixture of classic ol’ cabins, public land and meandering arms and bays to get lost in – it is quintessential Lutsen. And all the fun and amenities of Lutsen are just down the trail a bit. 10 minutes and you’re downhill skiing, or chillaxing at Fika Coffee, or brunch at Lockport. The kitchen opens to the living room and dining. A gas fireplace, classy stonework, takes off the chill. Offpeak heating does the real work and boy is that nice on the pocketbook – winter is for real up here! And when the chill comes, watch closely because there’s a bit of black-ice skating that manifests, but you gotta be here at your new place to catch it. After that, it’s time for XC skiing, snowmobiling, and telling stories in the ice-fishin’ shack. Garage and shed are ready for action. A family of foxes lives in the area: location, location, location! Deep in the sweet dark night loons serenade through the bedroom screens and dreams tilt, slip into the wild. Moose, bears, otters, wolves, all are on the Welcome Wagon. Current owners have it ready, so just show up and get on with it: fully reinventing yourself up north or finally finding the getaway from the heat, traffic and BS! This is a property that accommodates the loafer with the latest summer read, the birder poking around with binocs, the industrious tuning up the pontoon boat and making sure the snow blower is rearin’ to go. All types gather at the firepit, spin a yarn or two, chomp a ‘smore or two! Cuddle, hold on to each other, savor relationships – that’s how it rolls along the shores of Caribou.
