The property was wonderful. It was close to shops and our favorite restaurant, The Angry Trout and to the lake. The owners were nice and very responsive to our needs. This was our second stay here and we hope to come back again

Another amazing Grand Marais Trip

The house was beautiful and in a perfect location. The bedrooms are roomy and the beds were extremely comfortable. The house was well stocked and included nice touches to make it easier having our dog with us. We will be back for sure!

We had a wonderful stay at Harbour View! The home was beautifully decorated, very clean, and even more spacious than we expected. It was well-stocked with everything we needed, and the beds were super comfortable. The location was perfect—easy walking distance to local restaurants and just a quick two-minute drive to the harbor, where we watched the sunrise each morning. Highly recommend this property!

Nancy was a very good host and promptly answered all questions. The house was very clean and well stocked. We have been going to Grand Marais for years but never stayed in town. This house was a perfect setting to the down town area which allowed us to walk and take in all the sights of GM.

Spacious, beautiful getaway

My mom and I scheduled a lovely week in Grand Marais, and this was the perfect spot for us--walkable to everything in GM. We each had plenty of space and our own bathrooms. We could have easily had another couple or additional family members join us without being too cramped. Furniture is stylish and comfortable. Definitely worth the premium!

Awesome place

We really enjoyed our stay. We have stayed many places near Grand Marais and this was the best. Close to downtown. Nice large space with many areas to sit. Nice views of the harbor. Would love to enjoy the outdoor space in a warmer season. The house had many special touches that made it feel like home right away. We already sent the link to a friend and would stay again when we get a chance to come up again.

Better than a Hotel

My friends and I have been coming up to Grand Marais every year for 10+ years, when our usual hotel room was booked we found this VRBO and we're glad we did! The house was obviously recently remodeled and had everything we needed for a great stay. The location is super close to everything in town and really close to the Angry Trout which we went to twice! We'll be back again next year!

Beautiful place in Grand Marais

This was a beautiful house that was easy to find and check in to in Grand Marais! It has good views of Lake Superior and easy access to the highway and the Gunflint Trail. The interior is modern and beautiful with a wonderful fireplace that made everything so cozy. Three bedrooms with kind sized beds made for comfortable sleeping for the three couples. We will definitely be looking for availability next time we come up to the North Shore

Perfect location

We loved this location and setting for our family to enjoy time in Grand Marais over Thanksgiving. The house was beautiful and met the needs of our family of five perfectly. It was obvious that the property is well maintained. Communication with the owner, Nancy, was great and helped us plan what to bring along. It was a short walk to downtown Grand Marais to the coffee shop, stores, activities, and a hike out to the lighthouse. We will definitely stay here again.
