Lutsen Resort sold to new owners

After 30 years of ownership, Scott Harrison and Nancy Burns have turned over the iconic Lutsen Resort to new owners. Lutsen Resort has been sold to North Shore Resort Company, a family company owned by Bryce Campbell and his mother, Sheila.  The sale was completed Aug. 15.

 “I’ve always admired historic lodges, so I’m proud to be able to carry on with Lutsen’s legacy,” Campbell said.

Lutsen Resort is Minnesota’s oldest resort. Established in 1885, the rugged natural beauty of Lake Superior’s North Shore prompted Charles Axel Nelson, a young Swedish immigrant, to establish his homestead overlooking the lake.

Through their 30 years, Scott and Nancy focused on maintaining the sense of tradition and history that the property evokes, while continuing to add new lodging options, guided outdoor activities and amenities for today’s travelers. They intend to remain in Cook County and stay active in community organizations.
