This is a great location... close to Grand Marais and Grand Portage and close enough to all the water falls to hike more than one in a day. The condo is cozy, clean, and a great place to stay.

Great memory making spot

Perfect for our family of 4- two adults and two small children. We didn’t spend much time in the actual unit, but the ski in/ski out location was perfect for our days on the ski hill. We also loved the pool and hot tub in the building. Condo itself was clean and had everything we needed along with some nice touches, such as books and movies.

Summer Family Stay

Easy in, easy out location with very convenient reserved parking spot. Family really enjoyed the pools and hot tub. Just a short distance away from the alpine slide and mountain gondola summer attractions. Our 5 and 7 year olds really had fun with those. Ate dinner at Moguls Grill onsite 1 night and had a nice experience with that as well.

Nice space & location

We enjoyed our stay! Overall a nice place. Fall colors were beautiful. Location was great. Fireplace was wonderful. Nice to have the deck. A few things to consider packing that were not in unit-lotion, matches, fire starters, any spices beyond salt & pepper, condiments for coffee.

Was very tidy and clean upon arrival. Though chose to spend a little more this time than previous visit. Had a very nice hot tub which we used with plenty of room. Room had everything we needed without having to call front desk. The restaurant Mougels was over priced for the food quality but we ate once and elsewhere. Would definitely stay here again.

Ski in/ski out

My friend and I had a lovely stay in this property. It is a well cared for and clean unit. Location is great for skiing. It would have been preferable to have some tiny amenities present, such as paper towels, matches to start the fire, and soap in the soap dispenser in the shower. But nothing that we weren’t able to address ourselves.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 January 2024
Catherine, Thank you so much for your generous review. It is reviews like this that help us provide the very best care for our guests. I apologize that there were no paper towels or soap in the shower. I will alert our cleaning staff immediately so that future guests will have all they need. And we plan to add matches/lighter to build a fire! Come again!

Great spot for family members to feel comfy. Best kept secret about this unit is the ease and location from the parking spot to the units door! Get out of car with walk 40 plus feet open a door and bamb you there! No stairs very easy traveling logistics.
