Need a latitude adjustment? Come spend some time at our cozy house on the bay.

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.

NOTE: COVID Safety: We have a strict sanitizing regiment and thoroughly clean and disinfect every nook and cranny of our home between renters with CDC recommended products. Put your mind at ease in this safe haven, away from crowds.

Spring break relaxing family getaway
We absolutely LOVED this West Bay Cottage and the peaceful little town of Grand Marais! Our main purpose for our stay was to hunt for agate rocks and Yooperlites as well as see waterfalls and other scenic areas in Munising. The location of this comfy house was PERFECT for just that! We arrived at the house with a personal welcome note as well as a few sweet gifts! The house had everything we needed and the sleeping arrangements were VERY comfortable! And the view from the back deck was absolutely breathtaking! The hostess was SUPER nice, VERY pleasant to talk to, and accommodated our needs! We also loved the quiet town and all of the little quaint shops and restaurants they had there! We would DEFINITELY recommend this cottage to stay at! I know that we will again in the near future!

Wow!
We had such a great weekend at the house! Super clean and well thought out spaces. The access to the beach and water, despite the cold, was key to our enjoyment. Everything was fabulous, and a warm welcome from our Host was a special treat.

Fabulous
What a perfect retreat on Lake Superior. Quiet, beautiful and wonderful place to stay at the end of a busy day in Pictured Rocks park. My daughter loved the beach, like it was her "own campfire." Very homy, wonderful touches, loved the art. Would come back. Thank you!

On the Bay
We had a fantastic time at Bill and Robins beautiful and cozy home on the bay. Spectacular view and extremely short walk into town. Our stay was short, but could see staying for a week or longer to enjoy all the water toys (kayaks, paddle boards, etc) they provided in their garage & outdoor fire pit, hammock, etc. Our journey there was to hike Picture Walks trails which were breathtaking and easy to get to. Thanks so much for sharing your comfortable home, Bill & Robin Ron & Suzi (Northville, MI) 😎🤗
