6108 Rollins Creek Rd Lutsen, MN 55615

Deep off the Rollins Creek Road, along the shores of Gitche Gummee, is a peaceful red cabin of simple lines, filled with the twinkling light of Superior. Nearly 300' of shoreline and 5 acres of seclusion just down the road from Lutsen. Stalwart seawall in place. Varied, beautiful shoreline including a point of ledgerock just right for studying waves with bonfire and s'mores. Home has two bedrooms, two baths, stone fireplace, sweet screen porch. Warm wood paneling and wide plank flooring - it's a classic. These settled, "old-timers" are hard to come by. Builders can try to reproduce them, but there is a patina that develops, just can't be duplicated in a short time. It takes all the lived stories, the jelling of materials, the built and natural environment getting to know each other. There's a vibe here! Coming down the long, forested, driveway there is a sense of moving through a portal: time slips and worries dissolve. This is a place of retreat, reflection, gathering of family and friends. A place to be away and amongst the elemental Northwoods: pure waters, breezy pines, spring green birch, ice sounds churning in your dreams. Here we remember we are a part of nature, returning to that core. The plans here are simple, one day its blueberry picking and walleye fishing - all cooked up in a kitchen grandma would have been at home in. Another day, splitting up that pile of firewood. Oof, if the back is tired, there's the screen porch, novel, cool well water, and nap. 5 acres is roomy, make some paths that meander to the special spots: wizened cedar, shady spruce, rocky outpoint on the far side of the property, etc. Solid garage keeps the gear and cars protected. Possibility of adding another structure could be interesting... lots of space here to dream. Rollins Creek Road is peaceful and off the highway, nice for walks and heading down the bike trail of which it is a part. Current owners have thoughtfully maintained and upgraded the home. A lovely property ready for the next steward. Vintage Lutsen on the Big Lake!
