This place was perfect for my wife and I while in Grand Marais for 5 days. The host was great and all communication was too. We had a blizzard on our 3rd day with 2 feet of snow and she made sure that the driveway and sidewalks were cleared as soon as was possible so that we could get out if we wanted to. We will definitely be back to this place!
