Only a couple things to complain about- the vending machines weren’t working or full and parking was definitely not easy when you go during prime snowmobile season! Overall it was a beautiful place. Met lots of new people and the staff were great and willing to work with us when we had to leave early. We would definitely stay here again probably when it’s a little warmer!

Clean and cozy. Cozy because it was near or below zero and the room temp was comfortable. Not to mention waking to a view of lake superior is tough to beat. The light breakfest is simple. So don't expect eggs and bacon.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Pros: Inexpensive, conveniently in Grand Marais, separate recycle bin (yay!), excellent staff member (Jasmine!), very large and deep hot tub (but maybe full of local slednecks). Cons: Water not very hot. Mattresses waaaaay too soft. Dated decor (not a problem for me but some may have issues), hot tub / pool closes too early (9pm) and opens too late (9pm) to be useful for someone like me.

The motel is somewhat dated but overall is clean with comfortable beds. The continental breakfast could be improved---even just offering hard boiled eggs would be nice.

This place was nice, and we had a fine stay overall. But I really didn’t appreciate how they had Fox News on in the lobby with the sound on, while I was having breakfast. And there was even a sticker on the tv that said “don’t touch the TV.” It didn’t even let me change the channel. I come on vacation to relax, not to hear about politics and Trump. Especially ridiculous that they don’t even let you change it.

Less than average stay

Rented a room with Jacuzzi tub for the jets to be faulty and work for 10 minutes and randomly turning on in the middle of the night. Fridge didn't work until we kajoled the plugs around. Front desk was less than helpful and a little off putting. The pool was conveniently closed while we were there. The continental breakfast was ok.

The manager was unreal. I believe his name is Trey. He deserves a raise. So friendly and we will go back. Great breakfast. So clean and our room was fantastic I recommend this place if you have a family. 2 rooms in one and a pool. Thank you for everything.

This was a quiet facility near Lake Superior. We enjoyed having a large room with 3 beds for 6 travelers. We also were able to park 2 trucks pulling boats. The desk clerk went home at 10PM and a person who had reserved a room came in after that.
