It was a great house, great location, quiet, and my husband would say the perfect fireplace. Because of how dark it was, it was the most amazing northern lights we had seen in Grand Marais. The only thing that could have been better was to have cupboard room for food that we brought, and maybe have a outdoor grill.

First time staying in Grand Marais, perfect cabin for our trip and great little town with food and entertainment. Cabin has amazing views of lake superior. Ride from the cabin to the trail system and into town. Kim reached out, communicated and accommodated our needs perfectly.
