Beautiful View
Very nice home, kitchen had everything needed to cook meals. Which is great because the week we went, every single restaurant closed for that week. Wish this would have been communicated to us. Other than that it was a great get away and this property won't disappoint. They are installing a fire pit this spring, that will be a great addition.

Annual Snowmobile Trip
We booked a stay at the Hill House for our annual snowmobile trip in mid Feb. Unfortunately, due to the strange weather this winter, there was no snow to be found but we didn't believe it so we had to see for ourselves. Instead we did some hiking at the local Bond Falls, we drove to other nearby sights to see. We also walked from the Hill House into town a couple times for dinner. Lake Superior Brewing Co. has great food and atmosphere. We stopped at Grand Marais Tavern and had a cocktail. And had a delicious breakfast with a view at The Breakwall Lodge. Superior Shores Market or Bayshore Market have everything you'd need! Plus, the picture perfect shoreline, visible from most of town will make you fall in love with this little dot on the map! We'll be back for sure!

Incredible place, beautiful view
Dan is the greatest guy to work with. I’ve stayed at 2 of his properties in the area and he always accommodates so well. I’ll continue to stay at both of his places.

Grand Marais getaway
Cute dog friendy cabin with great view of Lake Superior. Easy walking distance to downtown area. The UP 200 was scheduled to end in Grand Marais but was canceled due to lack if snow this year. They still had activities planned downtown which were fun to check out.

Private and comfortable home
Dan was a super awesome and accommodating host. I’ve stayed in 2 of his homes and he was great to deal with both times. This one is fully renovated and private with a great view. I’ll be back again.
