WOW!Outside is a beautiful sandy walk to the gorgeous shore of Lake Superior. Perfect for Kite flying, wonderfully brisk swims, rock hunting, the view is amazing!!! Fire pit halfway to Superior in a perfect little depression between the dunes. We ran out of Marshmallows and had to restock!!Inside are wonderful clean beds, great little bathroom with a super cool rock floor shower. Perfect kitchen for small or larger meals. We fed five adults around a wonderful table with perfect bench seating. Loved all the books and the decor in the Great Escape! We are ready to book again for next year. Thank you SO MUCH for opening your home to us for a week!
We had a wonderful time at this cozy beachside cabin. It was the perfect quiet spot for a relaxing getaway, and being right on the water made it extra special. We enjoyed playing in the waves and searching for interesting rocks along the shoreâfinding some yooperlites was a real highlight! If youâre looking for a peaceful place to unwind by the beach, this cabin is a great choice.
Great get away to rewind and relax. Wife worked on a puzzle while I polished rocks. Cell service was OK for us. Little ways to walk to beach, so plan your trip. Just a great location.
Overall we loved our stay at the cabin. Having 6 people in the cabin made the single bathroom tough at times, but we made it work. I wish the water was a little closer as my mother has a hard time walking and couldnât use the path to the beach, but t was beautiful. The children loved the loft and the kitchen was put to use to make breakfast every morning. Getting re-used to no TV and wi-fi was interesting at times, but we made it work and enjoyed spending time with each other like we did back before we had wi-fi and a TV everywhere. Minor issue was at night what appeared to be 100+ gnats on the bathroom ceiling (May have been due to having bathroom window opened slightly to allow steam from showers out, and the bathroom floor got wet twice which appeared to be from moisture coming from under the sink. Those may want to be looked into, but besides that we would highly recommend for anyone who wants to âunplugâ and enjoy all Grand Marais has to offer! :)
Nice house, lots of games and books to use. The house is about 150 yards from the water. Also, I didn't notice on the listing, but there is no TV. Cell service is spotty at times. Overall, great weekend to disconnect and reconnect.
We had a chilly, rainy 2 days in Grand Marais, but the cottage was great. Comfortable, warm, clean. It had everything we needed and the location perfect - as close to Lake Superior as you want to be! We enjoyed our time there.
Great location, the beach was beautiful, and the cottage couldn't have been more perfect! We enjoyed 2 warm spring days exploring the area and will definitely be back!
Perfect place for unplugging from unnecessary distractions! It was peaceful and relaxing. Loved the Grand Marais Outfitters shop just on the edge of town too!
We enjoyed The Great Escape and can't wait to return sometime. The cabin, the location... was perfect. My only suggestion is that the second bedroom mattress should be replaced.
