"Sunset North", 5+ acres of Boreal forest nestled in the Sawtooth Mountain Ridges where the Onion River cuts through the ridges on its journey to Lake Superior. Super location between Lutsen and Tofte on the North Shore of Lake Superior. Conveniently located just minutes from all the year-round recreational possibilities that the Lutsen area has to offer: Lutsen Mountains Ski & Summer Resort, Superior National golf course and the incredible views from the hiking trails on Oberg Mountain! Hike for miles from your future getaway cabin or year round home! A nice mixture of birch, spruce and aspen, bordered on the west by Superior National Forest land for a good sense of peace and seclusion. Potential Lake Superior view through the trees, elevation dependent. Short driveway and sturdy steel gate at entrance to property; electric at the road, year round access.
