A weekend away

My husband and I stayed here to spend some time on the shores of superior taking in the views and spending quality time with each other, it was the perfect place to disconnect from our every day lives, slow down and unwind.

Amazing Getaway!

We spend a weekend here for our anniversary weekend and would absolutely stay again! The location was perfect with a private beach and walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go. We didn’t need to communicate with the host at all because everything was laid out for the check in/out process on VRBO and in the room. The only reason I am giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because there was no shampoo, conditioner, or body wash in the room even though it was stated on the listing so we had to go out and buy our own. Loved that there were extra blankets for the chilly nights and would definitely book again!

Great location and views

This is a wonderful place for a couple or single in downtown Grand Marais. It’s block or two from all the shopping in GM. The view is spectacular, looking out over the bay to the east of town. Highly recommended!
