Grand Marais Getaway

The property was very charming (and quiet!), perfect for our group of 4 friends. It’s located close to many amazing natural attractions and beautiful beaches. The bikes and kayaks on site gave us plenty to do. We hope to visit again!

Great Location

This is the 3rd time my sister and I have stayed at Vacation Paradise. We come to Grand Marais annually to hunt for rocks. We love that the house is within walking distance to all the restaurants in town. Vacation Paradise is so comfortable and decorated nicely with a beach theme.

Perfection!

This cottage was so cozy and made our trip so enjoyable. We felt right at home, and it had everything we needed and then some. It was close to many things in town and the beach and a short drive from so many fun things to do in the UP.

The Hill Sisters

My sister and I truly enjoyed our stay in Grand Marais for the UP 200 dog sled race. We have been attending the race for years but this year was the absolute best at the Mermaid House. Great sister memories were made. Lots of snow, perfect UP winter!

Perfect Vacation Week

We had a wonderful stay at the Mermaid Cottage in Grand Marais! The cottage was very comfortable with all the amenities we needed! Very clean and everything was just like it is listed. The hosts went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The location is absolutely perfect for walking to the beach, to get coffee at the Dream Machine, and pizza at the GM Tavern. We loved it so much we have already booked next year!

Beautiful!

We loved the spacious yard where we could eat our meals al fresco and while away the afternoons reading in the sun when we weren't taking short walks to the beach or getting ice cream a few blocks away. The Mermaid house is well situated and well appointed for a week in the upper peninsula's best village.

This cottage was great! By far the best cottage we have stayed at in Grand Marais. Our family was so comfortable here. The yard and firepit is perfect for roasting smores, stargazing, and as my girls say ...chillin out. The bicycles were the biggest hit. We rode to town multiple times. My parents have a bench dedicated to them in the campground. So pleased that we could walk over anytime from the cottage and just sit there and watch Lake Superior. We will definitely be back for another visit.

Vintage Cottage

This house was just perfect for a stay in Grand Marais. It was very well kept and updated but still preserved some of its vintage authenticity. It was walking distance to town and beach. We used the large yard with a fire pit and table. We didn't get a chance to use the bikes and kayaks.

Sister Vacation

My sister and I like to go to the UP every year to enjoy some cold weather. The house was just as described. Charming, cozy and comfortable. Beds were great and we liked having the two couches to lounge. Communication with host was excellent. So close to the lake. We loved it. Unfortunately, we had to cut our stay short due to incoming ice storm. Host was gracious enough to refund a couple days even though he was not obligated to. Thanks so much for sharing your home. Definitely will be back.

Great stay for our quick trip to the UP. All the extra amenities available were an added plus and wish we had more time to use everything. The floor AC unit was a bonus considering how abnormally hot it was. The host was attentive and helpful!

You can walk to everything in town. We loved the fire pit, board games, and bunk beds for the kids. We will definitely be staying here again. The host was super helpful and communicated very well.
