We were surprised to receive your list of Cons: The listing shows a microwave and apartment refrigerator, it does not say there is a kitchen; Dish soap and other supplies are always located in the bathroom cabinet near the sink; 2 types of pillows are supplied but most travelers with specific needs generally carry their own pillow. We are addressing the 'deep clean' comment with our cleaners.

We thought the room was not cleaned very well. At the head of the bed there was so much lint and dust my allergies were raging. Dead flies in the window, the bath tub had thick ring of dirt after draining. We thought there would be a grill on the deck near our place so cooking would be easy and was out front of the home

We would like to address your concerns. As it states in the room instructions, please contact manager if there are any issues right away. We always want to address any problems that can be corrected immediately to improve your stay. The tub has residue after running the jets if products are used in it. The grill is available on the concrete pad for fire safety reasons rather than on the wooden deck and near the wood sided house. It must be put inside at night to discourage attention from bears and raccoons. We actually discussed this out front. The cleaners have been informed of shortcomings and have corrected procedures.

We really loved our stay - it was the perfect spot as was so close to Grand Marais but private and secluded. The king size bed and the whirlpool tub were added bonuses and both were perfect after a full day of hiking and biking. Tina was awesome to work with and we definitely will be looking to stay here again!
