"The hiking trails were beautiful, it’s a little awkward because you feel like you’re walking on other people’s “property” but it’s a public trail. The view was gorgeous, even though we were further away from the water. And there’s plenty of bowls, silverware, etc. so no need to stress about that which was nice! And it was a pretty drive to Grand Marais around 25 min."

"Our stay was pleasant. There was a wedding inside Saturday that we would have liked to have known about ahead of time. Was very awkward trying to leave our room while the ceremony was starting. Beds were super comfy. Stayed here for 3 nights. We had dinner there which was just “ok”. No breakfast onsite, which we knew about ahead of time."

"Our room was very nice and appeared to be recently updated. This is a “self service” kind of place so there is no maid service during your stay. There is a number you can call if you need anything. It is a great location right across from the harbor so you can walk to everything in downtown Grand Marias. I would request a second floor room next time for better views of the harbor."
