This is our 4th time staying here and after having come at least once a year, often twice - in the summer and winter - for over 30 years, this is our favority place to stay. It is "our" little home right on the beach and right in town.

Amazing!

This was absolutely perfect for me and my husband's mini moon! The location was gorgeous, we loved having fires on the beach and waking up to the view of Lake Superior. It's centralized so that we could walk everywhere within Grand Marais. We did hear some noise from the people staying upstairs, but it was minimal and did not impact the enjoyability of our stay whatsoever. Highly recommend staying here!

Grand Marais Beach Bungalow

It's a little rustic, but you can overlook those things pretty easily with the full view of the beach & water through a wall of windows. You have a relatively private beach area with two Adirondack chairs and a fire pit. The village is right out your front door. We would stay there again.

Great little getaway

This was the perfect little spot to stay for my Grand Marais solo-cation. The location and view can’t be beat! It’s definitely a bare-bones stay, but that’s all I really needed for this trip. I’d definitely stay here again!

Amazing Getaway!

We spend a weekend here for our anniversary weekend and would absolutely stay again! The location was perfect with a private beach and walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go. We didn’t need to communicate with the host at all because everything was laid out for the check in/out process on VRBO and in the room. The only reason I am giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because there was no shampoo, conditioner, or body wash in the room even though it was stated on the listing so we had to go out and buy our own. Loved that there were extra blankets for the chilly nights and would definitely book again!

Fantastic views of Lake Superior

Enjoyed drinking my morning coffee while watching the sunrise over East Bay and Artist’s Point. Loved listening and watching the waves. A nice quiet place in a warm cabin feel. Heater worked well!

Quaint and cozy.

The room was sufficient, simple, and cozy. Met all my basic needs. I saw northern lights out at night. I wish Red Pine Reality wouldn't have left lights on the entire night to pollute the sky. Every cough, step, and voice of the people above you will be heard, so I would suggest earplugs and noise canceling headphones so you sleep well. But otherwise, a nice cozy stay.

Spectacular Views of Superior

Our purpose for trip was hubby’s photography and the occurrence of a Super Blue Moon. We wanted more of the beach cabin vibe and this unit delivered! The expanse of Lake Superior at Grand Marais was right in our window and just a few short steps from the door. Private. Well thought out accommodations with easy access for us with some mobility limits (e.g., no stairs). The only challenge was the very low toilet, but we managed. I would definitely stay at this lovely location again❣️

Beautiful sorroundings

Overall a great place to stay. You couldn’t get closer to the beach. Walking distance to restaurants and the boat landing. We enjoyed the views from our room. We love this town. The room is small, but very clean and we enjoyed the coffee. Be aware that the lower unit can hear all movement, conversation and coughing in the room above.
