Clean, well cared for, scrupulously appointed
Great location for hiking and seeing sights. Super efficient use of space with everything you need on site besides groceries. The sauna is awesome, easy to use and so well taken care of. We felt comfortable the whole time. Management was very communicative and helpful.

Great place for couples going to Lutsen!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Bear Den. The space was clean, the kitchen was very well stocked (with two different types of coffee makers and an electric tea kettle, which is a rarity) and the sauna was an absolute treat! The hosts were also great and reached out several times during our stay to make sure everything was good. I highly recommend the space for couples visiting the north shore. We will be back next year!

Tranquil time away
I had a lovely time staying at the cozy bear den. It's really close to nearby hiking trails, which cut-down travel time and left more time for relaxation. It rained most of the days I was there, so I unfortunately didn't get to use the firepit area. The layout is a little different (they made the most of the space!) so I spent extra time reading and lounging in bed. The sauna is perfection after a long day in the woods. Book this place if you're looking for relaxation in nature. I'll definitely be back!

Convenient location in Tofte
Garage studio apartment with the necessities. We were in the area to hike, so didn’t spend a lot of time there. First impression driving in wasn’t great as the property was overgrown and the exterior of the garage needs some TLC, but the inside was clean and functional.

Thank you . The property is next to miles of the national forest . The grass gets mowed weekly but back yard is the national forest . The apartment has amazing sauna inside , fully functional kitchen with all amenities, laundry, separate bedroom and living room with views of the forest and Lake Superior. The small patio offers fire pit and grill . We invite our guests to park in the garage which protects from snow or rain . We keep our prices affordable and offer luxury feel . We are glad that you enjoyed your hike . Thank you Kate

Comfortable and clean
We enjoyed our stay. The beds were super comfortable (including the sofa bed), and the place was well laid out for two travelers to share. The sauna is a very nice touch. Location very convenient to both Grand Marais and Two Harbors, as well as hiking destinations.

The Cozy Bear Den really delivered! Very comfy place that was lovingly tended to. All the amenities worked; the sauna was heavenly after cold days outside. When I am in the Grand Marais, I hope to stay again!

Great Place to Stay
We stayed 4 nights. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, our daughters enjoyed the sauna, the owners were extremely communicative. I would highly recommend this VRBO if you are visiting Lutsen/Tofte/Northern MN.

The apartment is well appointed with nice furnishings and while it says you can sleep 4, 2 is about all I would recommend. It will sleep 4 though with 1 bedroom and a sleeper sofa. If I were to visit this area again I would definitely consider this place for future trips.

Quiet, yet great location
Beautiful property, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Still close to tons of hikes and centrally located to cover the north shore. Car charger worked great and the sauna hit the spot after a long day of hikes and touring. Even though our original rental (small apartment) had a water leak issue just before our stay, the property managers put us up in the main house. We are more than satisfied how this issue was handled. The property managers went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of!
