About Lutsen Resort

Lutsen Resort On Lake Superior sits where the Poplar River meets the largest Great Lake (also the second-largest lake in the world). The historic resort – home to lodge rooms, log cabins, townhomes, Sea Villas and Poplar River Condos - overlooks a large pebble beach of a secluded, private cove where swimming, kayaking and fishing are perfect summer past times. The Scandinavian architecture offers a special charm. Romantic dining comes courtesy of the Waterfront Dining Room. The resort fee allows for complimentary 9-hole pitch and putt golf, disco golf, shuffleboard, indoor pools and hot tubs, live music on the beach and nightly bonfires with smores kits available at the front desk. The scenic 27-hole Superior National at Lutsen is a “driver and a 7 iron” away from the resort.

Great Course

My wife and I played this course last year and came back again. The course is in great condition and every hole has something different too see. Beautiful views throughout the course and very fast greens! We will be back again next year!

Amazing golf with amazing views

I've never played here before this year and now have played it 3 times here late in the season I will be back every year! The clubhouse is welcoming and and offer a ton of variety for food. I had the steak sandwich this time and it was amazing. The staff was super friendly as well. They do have a nice patio to use after your round when the weather is nice.

The range and putting green were in great shape.

The golf course is in amazing condition. Greens are fast, but fair. Tee boxes were great even on the par 3's. The fairways were perfect. Holes 14 and 15 were unbelievable with the Poplar River running right in the middle of them.

Must visit destination course!

Made the drive from the Twin Cities today to play based on a recommendation from a friend and it did not disappoint. The Friendly staff to the scenic views are just the starting point leading to perfectly maintained fairways make this a fantastic destination course. The only recommendation I have is to practice your putting at high end courses with quick smooth greens because these babies are FAST! Can’t wait to get back up there!

Love the views!

Just finished playing this course, and wow—it is absolutely beautiful! From the incredible staff to the amazing course, the entire experience was fantastic. The views throughout the course are hard to beat! If you’re heading up the North Shore, I highly recommend making a stop to play here. Already looking forward to coming back and playing it again!

Amazing views!!

Superior National was AWSOME. The views were absolutely insane and the staff were so so friendly. The course was in great condition for being September. Pace of play was great as we never waited on a tee box and finished within 4 hours. This would be a great trip for a family golf trip or special outing! I loved playing here and would definitely recommend!

Fun in the sun

Our group does a fall Golf trip and Superior National was one of the courses on our list for this year. Course was in excess shape and the signature holes lived up to their billing.

Wonderfull time on a crisp sunny day!

Awesome Course in Lutsen

This was our first time playing Superior National and it was an amazing time. The layout is absolutely stunning with incredible views of Lake Superior. The course was in great condition and the greens rolled very smoothly. A majority of the holes are a great mix of fun and difficulty. We played in a day with high winds which made the course much more challenging, but it also made the round more enjoyable. The staff are incredibly friendly and the clubhouse has everything. We travel to North Shore a handful of times a year and will start making a round at Superior National part of every trip.

Great course

Course is in excellent shape other than whole four or five I can't remember now the green is pretty messed up, but with the new owners that took over a couple weeks ago they have big plans on making this course even better than what it is
