Grand Marais is a little slice of mother nature's best in all 4 seasons. All photos are at the house or within a 40-mile radius, to give you an idea of the beauty surrounding. We have a waterfront home with private beach, full kitchen, 3 bedrooms (sleeps 6), 1.5 baths, and wrap around deck. We’re in the perfect location, you can spend your days on the property relaxing on your own private beach, paddling in the bay (kayaks are provided), swimming, boating/sailing and having campfires. We’re within walking distance of the shops and restaurants downtown, Agate Beach on the big water (great for rock hunting!), and the North Country Trail. If you would like to go exploring, we’re located at the eastern end of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, where you can enjoy gorgeous hikes along the sandy dunes, magnificent sandstone cliffs, teal blue lake superior water, picturesque waterfalls, inland lakes, and northwood forests of maples, birches, pines, and hemlocks. The Grand Marais area is also home to legendary trout streams. Located 30 miles to the south is the Seney National Wildlife Refuge with over 200 bird species, 26 fish species, and 50 mammals—a wildlife photographer’s dream. Grand Marais is located on the ATV/ORV trail 8. Access to the garage for ATV/ORV overnight storage can also be arranged. No matter how you want to spend your summer vacation, we have it all. In autumn, the surrounding hardwood forests turn magnificent orange, yellow and reds with contrasting evergreens and paper-white birch trees. The weather is great for hiking, biking, photographing, riding on the motorized trails and more. It is very peaceful. When the snow flies, there’s an abundance of activities to enjoy here: scenic snowshoeing, X country skiing, dog sledding, fat tire biking and snowmobiling are amazing in the area. Our house serves as the perfect, cozy home base to come back to after you’ve spent a day out in the cold. There is new fireplace with a gas stove just in time for winter! We’re conveniently located near the Crazy 8’s snowmobile trails (#8, #88, and #888) as well as trail #443. Snowmobiles are available to rent right in Grand Marais, or if you bring your own, we have a heated garage to store your sleds and gear in at night. The bay, our home is on the shore of, is an ice fishing hotspot. Whatever your winter getaway entails, our warm and comfortable house is in the center of it all. Trailer parking on site and you can ride to trail (very close!), no need to go to trail heads with trailers for the day. Any time of the year, our home serves as a perfect retreat with a fabulous view, nestled in the trees, situated on the harbor.
