Cute house in Grand Marais that is centrally located to downtown Grand Marais (about one to 2 miles drive to downtown) adorable little town. The house has an old world charm and the was very clean, but renovated for modern finishes. I would def recommend to others, great property management and the BEST ice cream I’ve ever eaten!

Check in details provided in advance. Clean and stocked kitchen. Conveniently located close to town and Lake Superior. Linens provided though the beds and pillows were a bit lumpy. Shower soap and shampoo/conditioner not provided. Overall, we would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay.

The house and location was perfect for our snowmobile trip. The trails are a short distance away. The house was a good fit for our group of 8. The owners answered my question quickly. A good place to stay and I recommend!!

Great Stay

We had a very pleasant 2 night stay while exploring nearby Pictured Rocks with our grandkids. Recent upgrades are great - everything working well and very nice & clean & quiet. Stairs to loft are a bit steep. We would stay again. - it was a "happy place" for us too!

Super Cute & Clean

We had a great time staying here! The house was the perfect size for our group of 8 (4 adults & 4 kids) and is super cute on the inside. The main level has been newly remodeled & they did a great job. The kids loved the upstairs area the most with the tv and extra space to play. The kitchen had everything we needed and we all loved the nice big island to hang out around and eat. The overall cleanliness of the home was 10/10. Everyone enjoyed their stay here and we’ve already recommended it to others. Thank you for sharing your place with us!!

Great Stay, Excellent experience

No negative comments, great stay. Only glitch we had was we never received access info. I messaged the property management and they directed me to contact the owner. I contacted the owner and left a message. I did receive a call back shortly there after with access. No complaints, all went well.
