About this property

"Sunrise & Serenity" Perched Right On North Shore's Lake Superior Shoreline

BASE RATE includes 4 guests. Additional guests are charged $25/night plus tax.

ALSO NOTE: We now have enacted a pet noise policy. You must take your pet with you if you leave the condo unit for more than ten minutes. See House Rules for details. Lastly, smoking is not allowed anywhere on the premises, inside or outside.

The Gull Harbor Condos are located between Lutsen and Tofte on Highway 61 and offer fantastic, unobstructed views of Lake Superior allowing for a complete sunrise to sunset experience. Gull Harbor also features its very own private cobblestone beach nestled in a small harbor framed by Lake Superior ledge rock cliffs. Other attractions are the Gitchi-Gami State Bike Trail, which runs right past Gull Harbor, and Lutsen Mountain Ski Area, which is 5 minutes away.

This three bedroom ( + loft), three bathroom unit is located on the upper level with breathtaking views of Lake Superior, up and down the shoreline. One main floor bedroom has a king bed and sliding glass door to its own secluded deck - and a fully remodeled bathroom right next door. The second bedroom has a king bed, a full bathroom, and an outdoor deck. The second-level loft has a sitting area, and a sleeping nook with two twin beds and a ½ bath. The main area contains a cozy living room with a gas fireplace, a dining area, and a fully-stocked kitchen with granite counter tops. There’s also a nice deck to enjoy morning coffee or an evening cocktail. You’ll also love the private shoreline that includes picnic and fire pit areas.

Please Note:

In consideration of other guests/owners, Gull Harbor has a "no barking/pet noise policy." This means you must take your pet(s) along with you whenever you leave the condo unit for more than ten minutes. You also must control pet noise while in the condo. Failure to follow this policy can result in eviction without reimbursement for rental fees and potential loss of your damage deposit.

Guests with pet allergies should be aware that Sunrise & Serenity at Gull Harbor 1030 is a pet-friendly rental. Also, the owner has a cat and there may be some hair/dander present. Please also note that in winter, the road and walkways may be icy and four-wheel drive is recommended.

There are steps to get down to the main entryway and there are two flights of steps to get down to the level that allows for access to the fire pit, grill and lakeside level.

No smoking or open flames are allowed in this unit.

Great Getaway!

Five women in their seventies loved staying at Sunrise and Serenity. It was the perfect amount of space and the views of the lake were spectacular! The furnishings were a bit tired. The amenities were very nice. The location was perfect for exploring the North Shore. All 5 of us would recommend Sunrise and Serenity and would definitely stay there again.

Heaven on Lake Superior

We loved this place so much. The views were every bit as good as the pictures, the beds were comfortable, the loft was spacious, the kitchen was well stocked with some basic spices, oil, and vinegar (if a little small). The hosts were very responsive to questions, although we didn’t have many! The quiet location is convenient for a lot of hikes within a fairly short drive, which we took advantage of on several days. My husband and daughter used the Gitchi-Game Trail to run on several mornings which runs right by the condo. The pebble beach is very nice-we had it to ourselves til the weekend, when we shared it with only a couple other families, and there was plenty of room. We also made use of the sauna. We used the local laundromat once-it was clean, but be aware it’s cash only. If I didn’t live so far away from this lovely condo, I’d book the next available weekend!

Drift off to sleep to the sound of waves..ahhh......

We had such a nice time, and the getaway was just what we needed. The host was unfailingly helpful, kind and professional. The location was perfect for Lutsen skiing and short road trips, and the condo had everything we needed. Two of the best aspects were the quiet and a gorgeous lake view right outside the windows. Falling to sleep at night to the sound of waves on the shoreline was a rare treat. Thank you for sharing Gull Harbor with us!

Lutsen Ski Getaway

Pictures don't do it justice. Spectacular views. Great location, less than 10 minutes from Lutsen. Plenty of space for our family of 5. Great communication. Only negative was the fireplace did not work. Not a huge deal. Not needed for the heat, just would have been nice. We did get a credit for that without asking. Much appreciated. Would book again.

Hidden Gem!

This condo was perfect for 2 moms and our 2 boys (husbands stayed back home). We planned a skiing trip @ Lutsen and this was only 7 minutes away and worked perfectly for the 6 of us. Gorgeous views and good space for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and utensils and even with basic spices, oils, etc. also, loved that there were bigger bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand wash, etc. that could be refilled and less waste overall. So, needed to check in with the caretaker Linda once and she was very responsive. We will definitely be back!

Sunrise and Serenity

This was our second stay and the first for our daughter and son in law and we all loved our time together at this gorgeous condo. The view from every room is breathtaking and the condo is well stocked with everything we needed. One thing that should be disclosed in the condo description is the number of steps to the condo entrance and to access the beach. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Wonderful apartment with fabulous views

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful apartment. We had 3 couples for this stay and it was so nice to have 3 bathrooms and separation between bedrooms for privacy. The views were phenomenal! We enjoyed every minute of our stay! We asked at the last minute to change our check-in date because of poor weather. We were traveling up the north shore and the weather forecast was significantly better to check-in one day prior and the host accommodated us!! We were so grateful because the weather was gorgeous.
