We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our family ( two humans and two canines) were welcomed by our hosts and the owners were open, generous and patient. The b&b is beautiful and the owners gave us great advice for dog friendly skiing. They even upgraded our room for free so we'd have more room for the pooches. Their dog is sweet... More

My husband and I spent a weekend at the Pincushion B&B over Fisherman's Picnic weekend. What a glorious time we had. The food was phenomenal and our room was comfortable and it had a spectacular view. We went hiking on Pincushion Mt and enjoyed the wonderful scenery, quiet and solitude. Lynn and Ruby were gracious hosts and encouraged us to... More

We enjoyed our stay at Pincushion! The B & B is located outside of Grand Marais (no traffic noise) with immediate access to miles of wooded recreational trails. The bedrooms were clean, organized, and had private baths with showers. Breakfasts were wholesome and delicious. The B & B does have a friendly dog who will jump on you if you're... More

The Pincushion B&B was a wonderful place to stay for those that enjoy the outdoors and want to be a part of the beautiful Northwoods of Minnesota. My husband and I felt instantly welcomed by Lynn which was a great bonus on a relaxing weekend away from the cities. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful each morning! I would highly recommend...

We just spent 4 nights at this B&B. It is all newly redone inside and is impeccably clean. All of the mattresses (among other things) are brand new. Each morning an excellent, generous breakfast was made that included home made baked goods. The proprietors (Lynn and Ruby) love what they're doing. Three of the guest rooms have a view of... More

Very comfy beds. Amazing breakfasts (ask for the Eggs Benedict and kolachy). Impeccably clean. Completely unfussy. Great access to cross country ski trails (literally, right out the back door, you are on the Pincushion trail system). Great birdwatching. Welcoming hosts. Close to Grand Marais, but nestled in the woods so lots of birds and wildlife to watch. I've always been... More

This was our first time to the Pincushion Mt. B&B. We were looking for a quiet comfortable place to stay near Grand Marais for a XC ski trip. The hospitality at Pincushion made us feel very relaxed and at home. The hosts were friendly, helpful and make an incredible breakfast. We loved the fact that we could walk out the... More

When my wife and I received a post card announcing that our favorite "B & B" was under new ownership and was open for business, we were extremely excited. After making reservations on line, and spending three nights in the "Pine Room", and being served three excellent made from scratch breakfasts, we were both delighted with the experience. We are...

I had occasion to stay at the newly reopened Pincushion Bed and Breakfast on the Gunflint trail just out of Grand Marais, MN. recently while I was up in northern MN for a fall vacation. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there and would more than recommend it to anyone who enjoys the north woods and the hospitality of the two... More

Lynn is the new owner of this lovely bnb along the gunflint trail. It's close to downtown grand marais but secluded in the woods, with rooms viewing lake superior. We stayed in the birch room. The bathrooms (except for the pine room- we were the only ones there, so she showed us around) are small but it's not like I'm... More
