This was a great place for us to stay in Grand Marais while taking classes at North House! It was very comfortable for 2 people and the kitchen had everything we needed for the weekend. A wonderful central location right in Grand Marais. The hosts were great, would stay here again!

The accommodations were accurate to the description, but they also included extras that were greatly appreciated. Such as hymalayan salt and fresh ground pepper, extra towels, and creamer in the fridge and fresh ground coffee. The location made it very easy to walk everywhere in the bay, and the Adirondack chairs for morning coffee watching the mist over the water was wonderful. Their attention to details, everything being clean and prepared was apparent.

The space is compact, but worked quite well for my husband and I. Great location across from the water and walking distance to town. Perfect for taking a class at the North House across the street. Would stay here again.

The host was welcoming and everything was clean and very cute. The couch was difficult to sit in but the multiple pillows helped. The bathroom is truly too small for anyone larger than a medium size.

Superb accommodations

The garden apartment is just as advertised. Beautifully appointed. Cozy, best for a fit, slim person. Access to bed is somewhat difficult, but it is very comfortable. Linens, towels, and kitchen appointments are top quality. Some steps to tiny bath. Location superb.

The location and the fact that we had a last-minute reservation available were wonderful. The host was more than gracious about everything. I would say that the unit was very dark for my taste, although my husband loved the man cave feel of it. It is a very shall we say intimate unit and large people would not be at all comfortable in the small access around the bed and the Very small shower toilet sink bathroom in about a. 5‘ x 5‘ square of real estate. This is a new unit for the owners and they were very open to suggestions about improvements. One other thing was having an equally comfortable functional and aesthetic lamp and table on the right side of the bed in addition to on the left. In all, I think he’s a wonderful choice because of its location and the wonderful TV with Netflix and YouTube, and a modern functional kitchen, and even a window although at ground level that looks straight at the lake.

The studio was scrupulously clean and well-organized. As shown in the listing photos, the view is lovely. The location is very convenient for anyone taking classes at North House Folk School, which is steps away across Hwy 61. The kitchen is well equipped, with a full sized refrigerator and oven. The bedroom is comfortably furnished, and the bathroom and shower compact (as expected).
