Authorities in Cook County say the historic Lutsen Resort lodge on the North Shore was destroyed by a fire early Tuesday.
The fire at the lodge along the Lake Superior shore was reported just after midnight. Cook County authorities said there were staff on-site, but no guests.
The Historic Lutsen Lodge has been taken by a devastating fire this evening…. A total loss to the lodge building…. Fires in 1949, 1951 and 2024. The amazing memories made here are in our hearts as we begin the heavy weighted process to rebuilt back better.
Lutsen Resort dates back to 1885. It’s separate from nearby Lutsen Mountains ski resort. The main lodge had previously burned down in 1949 and 1951, resort officials said.
“The amazing memories made here are in our hearts as we begin the heavy weighted process to rebuilt back better,” the resort posted on its Facebook page early Tuesday.
There were no reports of injuries.
