Agree with previous reviews, excessive heat in the rooms, no coffee maker, no available electrical outlets, poor water pressure, and strange door lock system. The price is right, though, and I would stay here again.

Don’t waste your money

When I arrived it was 80 in the room despite it being 40 outside. I turned the thermostat off and opened all the windows. Found a fan in the closet and went to dinner. Came back & it was 75. When i went to leave in the morning, the push button that opens the front door before the front desk opens up did not work and i had to haul my bags out the back door to the patio & around the building to my vehicle.

I was hesitant about booking because of other reviews. Because we were there in the fall we didn't need air conditioning so no idea if that works. Carpet in room was not the cleanest. Beds and bathroom were clean and everything else was clean. I will stay there again. Loved the view.

This hotel serviced our needs excellently. You can’t beat the location next to the lake and businesses. We enjoyed the morning sunrises with easy access to the deck. We could have enjoyed them from the room but chose the deck. The deck is also a great place to meet and chit chat with others who are staying. We had a bonfire one night. This is not a fancy hotel and things are outdated - but we aren’t fancy people. No complaints on cleanliness. Breakfast served its purpose.

Not worth the money

This hotel need a complete renovation. The only positive things were the location and free parking. Also had WiFi. Our room didn’t even have soap in the room. The room was super hot and couldn’t adjust the temperature! Had to use a fan in the window. The view would have been spectacular but the outside of the windows were filthy.

We have stayed at other hotels by the Grand Marais Hotel Company, but this was our first stay at the Shoreline Inn. IMHO, this the best value for pet friendly lodging in town. It is no frills as far as the furnishings, tvs etc. But the location is spectacular and I really appreciate they allow pets. Everything was clean and the room was spacious. What we spent for two nights was easily less than one night at another property was that would not allow pets. The patio and beach are amazing. And the staff was very friendly and helpful. We are already planning our next stay.

We were not Happy Windows foggy so that you can’t see out to the lake also cracked all full length full of moisture Also window on our ground floor room could not be locked anybody could have gotten in to our room just by raising the window up from the outside. The girl at the desk even tried and could not lock the window.

The property is in disrepair… lake view window was opaque. No air conditioning, just baseboard heat units. Just a box fan. Staff friendly, but powerless. Only good feature is back deck area with chairs for lakeside view. Fire place but of course, no wood. Shower head terrific for someone 4’ tall. Breakfast was coffee, toast and packaged cereal. Only one key per room even for two guests.
