Holiday rentals with lake access in Grand Marais

This was perfect for our girls weekend! The location was excellent. It’s just a few blocks from a great trail right on the water and just a few blocks from downtown shops and Castle Danger. The kitchen was well-stocked and beds were comfortable. The sauna was also a fun bonus after our morning walks. We will definitely stay again!

Rachel’s place is just a few minutes outside of Grand Marais. The location made it easy to explore Grand Portage, Grand Marais, and the Gunflint Trail. We loved the peace and natural environment surrounding the rental. Plus that view of the Big Lake! Inside the rental were all the amenities we would likely ever need! The kitchen had plenty of cooking supplies (pots, pans, coffee maker, etc). The living spaces had comfy furniture and streaming devices. We found the largest bedroom to have a comfy bed and great view. Wonderful stay!

We enjoyed the cute house so much. Very clean, nice beds, it had many thoughtful items for us such as extra kitchen items and blankets, tea and coffee, salt and pepper. Great location by the lake. We were there in early November and had great weather but still too chilly to use patio or grill. It would be great to be there in different weather to use outside stuff. Lots to do and easy to get around. Great stay all the way around. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scott’s place and it was as described. We loved the breathtaking views, stunning sunsets and the peaceful, quiet surroundings. The kitchen was lovely and well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals while taking in the scenery. The space was bright, spacious, and comfortable, with radiant heating that made it feel extra cozy. Scott was an excellent host - he was super responsive and provided all the necessary information well in advance. We highly recommend this place and would love to stay again!

We stayed at this property to ride the ATV trail system. You could not ask for a better location to the system. Easy to get to the trails, and access to two great loops to ride.

I’ve owned my share of older homes, so I’m aware of the quirks they acquire with age. For an older home with radiator heat, this house was always cozy in the thick of winter. During our stay we experienced an active noisy sump pump that appeared to be frozen as it exited the foundation. The handyman was dispatched to examine the problem, but I think a seasonal thaw was necessary before a fix was possible. The bathrooms are well appointed, beds comfy and the kitchen had enough versatile equipment to make our meals possible. Spacious areas on main floor and second floor to spread out if you are a large group. We used this rental as a base while we went snowshoeing on the Superior Hiking Trail and spent an afternoon dog-sledding. Great fun! A mandatory meal with refreshments at Castle Danger Brewery was enjoyed as well.

We loved our stay in Lutsen! 6 of us came up to ski in February and the house was less than 10 mins to the resort. The house was very nice and clean- we loved the fireplace, record player, and looking out over Lake Superior. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay with awesome views. We snowmobiled there and it was easy great access to the trails and lake. Hosts were very kind and checking to see if we needed anything. Would highly recommend staying at this place.

An incredible space at the end of a private drive, overlooking the lake. The space was warm and welcoming, literally and figuratively! Loved the front sitting room with floor to ceiling windows to sit and sip coffee and enjoy the views. The proximity to the neighboring Houghton Falls preserve was enjoyed using the trail on the property. Peaceful, relaxing, made use of the large fire pit outdoors with the lake in the background. Close enough to town if you forget something and need to run in real quick, otherwise peaceful privacy to enjoy nature and the beautiful surroundings.

Beautiful location with a great view of the lake and cliffs! Loved the wood burning fireplace.

An unbeatable view ! Thanks for the hospitality. We had a wonderful quiet and relaxing weekend.

Truly a beautiful location with great views. IA very comfortable two story place, with lovely outdoor decks on both floors. Well furnished. Christopher was very helpful in sorting out a heating/cooling issue (cleaners had left the AC on). It was resolved to our satisfaction.

My family and I were very happy with: the location, the great water view from the balcony, the attached bookstore (a must visit), everything you need in Bayfield being within walking distance (including the ferries to the Apostle Islands & the Saturday morning farmer's market), the long list of amenities in the apartment, the cleanliness of the apartment, easily accessible parking spaces, and the quick and thorough responses from the hosts. Some patrons at the bar next door were laughing & having fun a little loudly outside on Friday night when we were going to bed, but the sound machines that were available in each of the bedrooms easily took care of it for us. (Saturday night, the patrons were quiet, but we still enjoyed using the sound machines.) We needed help with the airbed and the hosts took care of it promptly. We would definitely stay here again!

The Outer Island Apartment was lovely as always. We enjoy coming up here annually for our anniversary and we are delighted each time we stay at Molly's place with a large covered porch, windows that show us the beauty of the great waters of Lake Superior, ease of parking, super comfortable king bed, a walk in shower, super comfy towels and robes, and a sweet kitchen space that allows us to prepare and reheat food, brew coffee, and chill our cold drinks in the frig. The Windseeker group is from our understanding, a woman owned management group and they certainly tend to their role with diligence, quick responses, extra touches, bright smiles, and a kindness that is a joy to experience. We will return, and hope they put us in the weekend for 2025 for us to celebrate our anniversary once again, in a peaceful and restful place. Gratefully, Kathleen & Brian

This was a fantastic little place for my daughter and me to stay. It was clean and comfortable, as well as easy to walk to the lakefront and several restaurants. Thanks for a great stay!!

The location was perfect for our trip and the space provided everything we needed.

We really enjoyed Paula's cottage. While small, we loved the authentic feel of a 100+ year old home. Paula did a really nice job updating without losing that authenticity. The location is great if you love enjoying the beauty that the north shore has to offer. We took advantage of the beach that is within walking distance as well as the many trails that are across the highway. Paula was a tremendous host, being quick to answer our questions and offer suggestions. We drove into Duluth multiple times, which is about 20 minutes away. Highly recommend!

My husband, two golden retrievers and I had a great stay. We came to Minnesota for the birding and the cottage was a great location between Duluth and Two Harbors. The place was clean, warm and cozy. Would stay again!

We loved our stay at Taylor’s place. It is a cozy cabin right on Stone Lake. We had a great time ice skating on the lake and doing some ice fishing! Hugo’s is a cute bar and general store just a few miles down the road. We even did some snow shoeing and cross country skiing at Mother Bear ski trail down the road. The cabin was clean and well decorated, the couches and beds were comfortable. The bunk bed is tucked into a little closet but my brother (who is 6’3 and 250lbs) slept in one of the bunks and had no issues! The garage game room was so fun- but the thermostat seemed to be out of battery so it was only about 50° in there. Wasn’t much of an issue we just kept our coats on! Also when we arrived the cabin was also 50°- took a few hours to heat up once we turned up the thermostat. The cabin is small and sound does travel so bring ear plugs if you plan on going to sleep at different times. Overall would definitely stay again!

Very cute place to stay with everything you would need! There was plenty of free firewood, items for the grill, and kitchen supplies. Our stay was very peaceful. The cabin does have other cabins around but other guests were very quiet and respected the quiet hours after 10pm. Highly recommend for a long weekend get away.

It’s our 4th year in a row at Rebecca’s place (our grandchildren call it the “adventure cabin.”) Lovely spot, right on Superior, very comfortable, easy access to Grand Marais - all marvelous. Definitely recommend a stay.

The cottage was perfect for our ladies weekend. There was 5 of us and we slept comfortably. The view of Lake Superior from our big window is the best thing! We woke up to sunrise on the lake and the view was just breathtaking! We did not do much besides hung out in the cottage and talk all weekend long! For the price we paid, we wanted to enjoy the cottage and view as much as possible. It definitely was well worth it!

A cute cozy cottage that was perfect for our mother/daughter weekend. Loved the location with a view of Lake Superior as we sat on the deck off the kitchen with our morning coffee. The fall colors were beautiful!

This was the perfect spot for a peaceful stay on the North Shore and right on Lake Superior for a fun getaway. The house was well kept and exactly as expected with the feel of a cabin. The bedrooms were perfect and we loved being able to cook breakfast and enjoy views of the lake everyday. The amenities outside added to the peaceful enjoyment, but we didn’t get to fully utilize them this stay with the snowfall. The neighborhood is lined with cabins and guesthouses, but is really easy to find and super-convenient to Grand Marais, state parks, Lutsen, and other adventures in the area. The house is well-appointed and well-kept giving us the feel of home. As noted in the photos, the shower is quite small, but was just fine for our visit. We loved the convenience of grabbing groceries and visiting the nearby brewery and hanging lakeside to enjoy the calming effect of the Lake Superior waves. We are looking forward to making another visit soon!
