Accommodations are small and quaint, but the price definitely offsets any inconvenience of the size of the rooms. The cabins contain anything you might want for your stay and the hosts checked on us everyday to make sure our needs were met. We will be staying their again next visit.

Stayed for one night after a BDub trip. Really nice & cozy, clean, and a easy walk to town. Nice little kitchenette, too. Bathroom was spotless. Would stay here again. Call early during peak times, as they book up quick.

I stayed for 3 nights and I really liked it. The people are nice and friendly. I would stay again here. There was a campfire pit everynight. The Cabins were clean and there are grills by each cabin for you to use.

This place was so cute and convenient, it made our trip ten times more enjoyable. There is a walking path that goes down the bay in Grand Marais, about... More

What wonderful hospitality! Extremely well kept cabins with franklin fireplaces and kitchenettes. Great for longer family vacations as you can go to the local grocery store and cook your own meals. Rates very reasonable! Tom and Patty and their two daughters are wonderful hosts! Campfires at night for all to attend, some cabins with great views of Lake Superior. Now... More
