Comfortable Cottage Close to Town

This was a great location for our snowmobile trip to the Grand Marais area. Close proximity to town where you can snowmobile or drive to restaurants and bars. Cottage had all the necessary amenities for our stay in the kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms. Beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows, sheets and comforters.

Great location for 4 season fun!

Cute and clean this place had everything we needed for our small snowmobile group. Close to town and trails. Had parking for 1 truck and trailer and all of our sleds. Easy access to the house and Brett was great host and very responsive. I would definitely stay here again when in Grand Maris.

Snowmobile getaway

Long weekend with my nephews, brother and my 2 boys. The cabin was found to be very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The owner was great to work with and I would recommend this cabin to anyone looking to get away. Thanks for sharing your place. We will rent from you again.

What a great location

Beach, 1/4 mile down the road with gas station & restaurants in between. Friendly, small town. Host was excellent. Awesome communication. House was just what perfect for the 2 of us. (even tho it would have more) Neighbors were quiet. Just have no complaints. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great House for the Great Lakes Sea Kayak Symposium

I wanted a house to stay in while attending the Great Lakes Sea Kayak Symposium in Grand Marias. This house had a great location and amenities for a quiet and supportive stay. The only thing that was a problem was no access to outside water to hose off sand from kayaking gear. I had to carry a bucket of water from inside each day.

You, pretty much have everything you need. Bring laundry soap, fab sheets, shower soap, & shampoo, those are not provided. Very close (minutes) to beach, gas station, resturant, & hardware store. There was a gift shop, but, wasn’t open when we were there.This is our 2nd time staying here. Like all the conveniences.Our host did a good job communicating with me. Only suggestion I have for them, put a shade in the window over tv. That morning sun is bright sitting on the love seat having coffee. Cushion on couch closest to front door is getting worn & really uncomfy. I would defiantly stay here a 3rd time.
