Great place to hang out with friends. Fabulous location close to all amenities.
We gave it 4 stars because basic cleaning (floors and tables) seemed to have been overlooked for our stay.
Overall, we would definitely come back!

The house was a perfect spot to use as a basecamp for our fall adventures. We could walk to the beach and restaurants, and easily hit the road to get to the sights around Grand Marais.

I’m familiar with many areas in the UP and have stayed in Grand Marais before during the winter, but had never been to the Big House. I booked it for a long weekend getaway for my father and I- he had never been to the UP before and I knew the location would be perfect for us. I had originally planned on bringing one of my dogs, which led me to this place, but didn’t end up bringing her. The house was better than expected; plenty of UP charm and was more than big enough. The view, the fireplace, cleanliness, amenities, and proximity to town were all major pluses for us. If I had one gripe, and it would be completely trivial, it would be that the smart tv was a challenge to navigate. I would absolutely…and will likely…stay here again!

We loved Grand Marais and our stay at the Big House. Perfect location, with beautiful views of the water and close to the trails. Everyone in town was very friendly and helpful, as well as our hosts. The open area living space was perfect for unwinding at night with games and movies in front of the fire. We hope to come back again some day!

Perfect house in the perfect location
This was a great property within walking distance to town. The bay was right across the street and filled the house with the most beautiful views. Big yard for our kids to play. And very conveniently located to all the sites we wanted to see. Love Grand Marais beaches and would definitely stay here again.
