Perfect little stay
This is the perfect cozy little house for a getaway to Grand Marais. It was the perfect size for our family of 4. Everything was very clean and the host was very responsive to any questions or requests. The Fika coffee by the coffee pot was the perfect finishing touch.

Great quaint cottage
Great location and communication with property manager. Beautiful cottage. Only downfall is having to go through one bedroom to get to the other bedroom. Ok being it was family but privacy was limited.
