About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
20 3rd Ave., West and first Street.Great harbor view Right in the heart of town.
A two bedroom one bath with a pull out couch. Private off road parking in the summer & on the road in the winter. The house was remodeled and has a great yard with an awesome view over looking the harbor and Lake Superior.
This was My Mom and Dad’s house. We put a lot into the house and want it cared for the way we think it should.This is why we have a no dogs and kids between the ages of three and ten. Sorry about this but we have your reasons it’s not that we don’t like dogs or kids. That’s not it. We hope you stay with us and love The View as much as our family.
Thanks Mickey and Dee

Fabulous location
This is a fabulous location. Awesome view of the lake and lighthouse. Walking distance to everything. Very clean and well stocked. Only issue is no washer or dryer despite listing indicating there was and no outdoor fireplace although it says there is one on the paper in the house. The locks on the doors are a bit tricky. None of that is a deal breaker. Overall great place and would rent again.

Beautiful Home, Great Location
Our family of four adult children stayed here during the Fisherman’s Picnic. The location was right near the heart of the celebration with beautiful views of the harbor. The owner offered us an early check in as the home was ready. It was stocked with everything we needed! The large living area accommodated more of us for board games. We highly recommend this rental for your next North Shore getaway.

Scenic view
We have stayed at many properties in Grand Marais over the past 50 years and was very happy at this home. The view was amazing both from inside and outside of the Grand Marais Harbor. The living room/dining area was huge and great for family gathering. We found everything we needed for our week long stay and communication with Mickey was great. Highly recommend this home.

Awesome North Shore Experience
We came up for the Le Grand Du Nord race. The property is right along the finish line of the race. It is walkable to everywhere in town including Java Moose, and Voyageur brewing which is right behind the property. Open floor plan in the kitchen and living room made it easy for our group to gather over meals and activities. We loved our stay and will be returning again!

Grand Marais get away
We enjoyed the long weekend in Grand Marais. The house was very nice and it has a gorgeous view of the harbor and Lake Superior. Walking distance to almost anywhere you might want to go in town. The only complaint was the utensils in the kitchen for cooking was lacking.

The comforts of home close to town with a view
I was surprised how large the main room was, even though the photos showed it that way. Thankful for recliners and lovely view and deck. Thoughtful owner responded quickly and we even got to meet him. Comfortable beds. Appreciated the full kitchen that had condiments light ketchup and mayonnaise, etc. Right next to brewery but they close early and were never loud. Close to everything if you want to go and do, but lovely to just stay and relax there, too!

Enjoy this terrific town.
Mickey, the owner, also stopped by to say, “Hi” and see if we needed anything. He’s a great Ambassador and resource for his hometown GM!

Comfortable and clean with great views!
My husband and I spent a long weekend in Grand Marais and hiked in the area. The house was a perfect home base for taking in the north shore. We had everything we needed and more. It is very conveniently located so we didn’t drive in town at all. The views from the deck or out the living room window paired perfectly with my morning coffee. Would highly recommended!
