Hand scribed log cabin perched high on a cliff overlooking lake superior. Surrounded by big red and white pines, it truly is the 'land of the pines.' Kick back on the deck or in the large screen porch and watch the ships coming and going from Silver Bay Harbor. Huge view of the lake and Palisade Head. Very private and peaceful.
Tons to do, near Tettegouche, Judge Magney, Temperance and Split Rock state parks and Silver Bay Marina. Excellent waterfalls, Baptism river, swimming, hiking, fishing, biking, rock climbing, sailing, boating, kayaking, the list goes on...
or a perfect spot to sit and take in the views and do nothing at all.
Winter season brings a whole new array of activities and scenery. The snow covered white pines with the blue water of Lake Superior is amazing! We have a sweet dove tail wood fired sauna. There are 2 sets of snowshoes and trails from the door. Also several great cross country ski trails nearby, including Tettegouche State Park, where you can ski into an old hunting camp of several log cabins and a nice lodge. You can pack in a lunch and make a fire in the fireplace. There is also the Northwoods Ski Trail in Silver Bay and Flathorn-Gegoka in Isabella, just to name a few.
There is a queen and a double bed in the loft with a huge skylight for star gazing and lightning storms. The screen porch also has incredible views and is a comfortable place to relax, there is also a comfy futon in the living room.
Centrally located on the North Shore only 50 miles to Grand Marais, 58 miles to Duluth or 50 miles to Ely and the Boundary Waters. The Silver Bay Marina is only six miles away.

The Palisade Log Cabin is a lake front, wooded private retreat on the north shore of Lake Superior. It is located just off Highway 61, one mile northeast of Silver Bay. It is about a half mile through heavily wooded lots to the 45-year-old secluded and authentic log cabin. The cabin sits on seven acres of private land, and has more than 460 feet of high rugged Lake Superior shoreline.
There are incredible views to the north of the Palisade Head Cliffs. These cliffs reach 350 feet high and are a favorite of rock climbers. You can hear the waves of the lake crashing against the ledge rock cliffs just 70 feet from the cabin. The sunrises over the lake are spectacular; in the evening you might be able to view the northern lights.
We installed a geothermal heating/cooling system in October 2012 which should keep the cabin warm and cozy all winter long, and cool in the summer. Enjoy the peace and solitude of the whispering pines and birch while watching a bald eagle flying above. You can read a book or play cards/games near the cabin’s warm wood stove. Outside you can toast marshmallows at the fire pit or play horseshoes. Search for Thomsonites, agates, crystals, cobblestones, or driftwood at the nearby Black beach, go berry picking, or view colorful spring wild flowers and brilliant fall foliage.
There are many things to do and explore in the area:
-Drive the Highway 61/Superior National Forest Scenic Byway and visit the beautiful Minnesota state parks nearby (see map).
-Hike on The Superior Hiking Trail that runs from Two Harbors to the Canadian border. -Ride your bike on the Gitche Gami Bike Trail that runs along Highway 61.
-Snowmobile on the North Shore State Snowmobiling Trail or drive an ATV on designated ATV trails from Duluth to Grand Portage.
-Try cross-country skiing on the North Shore Mountain Cross Country Ski Trail.
-Visit Lutsen Mountains ski resort 36 miles from the cabin.
In the summer you can go to Black Beach less then a mile away, and nearby beautiful sandy beaches which are part of Tettegouche State Park or hike to the beautiful High Falls. Take a charter boat tour or fishing trip out of the Silver Bay Marina, that is 3.5 miles to the southwest. If you're adventurous, you can go kayaking in the cove. Golfing is available at Silver Bay golf course, and there is live music in Silver Bay July 14- September 1.
Watch for giant iron ore carriers on Lake Superior; they depart from Silver Bay and head east to Cleveland. Look for wildlife around the cabin and you may see eagle, deer, moose, bear, fox, wolf, and beaver. If you don’t feel like cooking, dine at a variety of fine nearby restaurants (Northwoods Cafe in Silver Bay, Lemon Wolf in Beaver Bay, Cove Point Lodge in Beaver Bay; Rustic Inn near Two Harbors) or check out the new Timber Coffee Company near downtown Silver Bay.
There is also a local grocery store, Zups, located just five minutes for the cabin for last minute supplies.

- "This is a great place to stay. Clean and comfortable with a nice yard and beautiful views. I hadn't realized there was no dishwasher until I got there but that wasn't a big deal for me. Hope I get a chance to stay here again in the future!" - "This cabin was very nice and clean. The view of Lake Superior is spectacular. It's nice to have the gazebo, which is also very nice and clean, especially when the mosquitoes are bad. Sarah and Steve gave us their number and said to call if we had any concerns, and there were none. We also appreciated it that we could bring our beloved dog with us."

Also check out our Split Rock Log Cabin near Beaver Bay! www.vrbo.com/1182301
We would love for you to stay at our Falls Ridge log cabin on the North Shore of Lake Superior! It’s a great place to create your perfect vacation.
With beautiful, 270 degree views overlooking Lake Superior and the steep hills of Tettegouche State Park, the cabin offers an awe-inspiring location to observe the beauty of the surrounding area.
Perched on a wooded hill 700 ft higher than Lake Superior, the Apostle Islands on the south shore can be seen along with the large ships going to and from Duluth. Witness spectacular sunrises and sunsets, experience impressive weather patterns and watch for falling stars and the northern lights at night!
We built this full scribed log cabin out of large white pine logs in a peaceful and remote location. Enjoy this perfect place to relax all day or return to your home-away-from-home after an adventurous day of exploring the hiking trails, State Parks, and beautiful rocky beaches of Lake Superior. Sit on the deck or screened porch and enjoy the views. Listen to the wind in the trees, the morning birdsong, or the distant sound of a waterfall. Grill a steak or have a drink while taking in the peace and quite. Read, play games, sit around a fire at night watching the moon on Lake Superior, or hike to the river and see the falls!
Baptism River and Illgen falls, with a thunderous 50 foot drop, are about 1/4 mile from the cabin and are easily accessible. Watch people rope swinging or jumping at the falls or walk up river to take a dip in a private swimming spot.
Lake Superior and Crystal Beach are only 1.5 miles away. This beach offers a less-visited place to look for rocks, listen to the waves, or take a refreshing swim in the cold waters of Lake Superior.
Kayak the clear waters of the big lake and enjoy the cliffs and rocky shoreline or bike the paved Gitchi-Gami trail.
Hiking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing trails and rock climbing routes can all be found within a 5-10 minute drive on the Superior Hiking Trail, Tettegouche State Park, and impressive Palisade Head. The trails in this area offer some of the best hiking and scenery in the midwest taking you to cascading waterfalls, through thick balsam, poplar, and maple forests and up and over steep rocky climbs that offer breathtaking views of the inland lakes, hills, and Lake Superior. No matter what season, natural beauty is everywhere!
Within 20 minutes there are numerous restaurants, gift shops, a golf course, a lake cruise, and chartered fishing opportunities. Wolf Ridge Environmental Center is a pretty and unique place to visit.
Within 40 minutes you will find Lutsen Mountain which offers the best downhill skiing and snowboarding in the Midwest! In the summer you can take a Gondola to a sweeping overlook and have lunch, take a fun ride on the alpine slides, or enjoy the gift shops and restaurants in the area. Gooseberry, Split Rock, Temperance State, and George Manitou State parks all offer site seeing, hiking, gift shops and information about the area. All the state parks have beautiful lake access and mesmerizing waterfalls. In the city of Two Harbors you will find many shops, restaurants, a cruise, train ride, light house and various other attractions.
The unique villages of Ely and Grand Marais are each within an hour's drive and offer various regional activities, recreational opportunities, shopping , and restaurants. Both of these quaint destinations have seasonal festivals, events, and music.
Lakes, streams, and rivers are abundant and offer great fishing opportunities in winter and summer.

The Writer's Cabin is a quaint, long established residence hidden in the oldest part of town. It has been fully restored and modernized to provide all the creature comforts and yet remain historic in nature. This is an original "Tiny home" as it was originally constructed nearly 100 years ago. We did expand the bath to accommodate the jacuzzi, and we raised the ceilings and brightened the entire cabin. A sauna is available on a first come first serve basis for an additional fee. Contact us for details. The Writer's Cabin is set amidst lush landscaping for privacy, and the cabin is only steps from the harbor. All amenities are provided including an enameled cast iron gas fireplace, a therapeutic air tub for two, a queen bed, a well equipped modern kitchen with oven and stove, smart Roku TV, an antique secretary writing desk, high speed wireless internet (best in town), and various objects of interest representative of famous writers and local writers including locally written books and Ernest Hemmingway's favorite model of typewriter. A sauna is available for a fee on a first come first serve basis and all info on it can be found on our web site or inquire with us here. Attention Air BnB guests: If you paid the dog fee through Air BnB it only covers one dog, you will be responsible to contact the cabin owner to pay for any 2nd dog. We do not recommend more than 2 guests in the Writer's Cabin, it has one queen bed and one non fold out sofa. The base rate included 2 guests and additional guests are $30 per guest up to 3 maximum. 4 guests are possible but it is going to be crowded. Dogs are $100 per dog with a maximum of 2 dogs. The property is kept exceptionally clean and we try to remove all evidence of dog hair between stays. Our cleaners work very hard to remove all evidence of dogs and that takes time and effort and we appreciate anything you can do to help.
With nine windows and one skylight, there is great natural light throughout the little cabin.
Seagulls and fog greet you when you rise.
This is simply a spectacular location right in the historic residential heart of Grand Marais very close to the harbor- yet still private and relatively quiet compared almost anywhere else in bustling town of Grand Marais. We are not on a busy street or on highway 61. You are perfectly positioned to discover the town and participate in the small town buzz.
The outdoor space has a balanced blend of sun and shade, functionality and whimsicality. This is a space intended as an exclusive retreat from the rigors of small town life. It is designed so that you can be as private as your vacation requires. Dense shrubs, apple trees and tall fences ensure your own seclusion. The feeling is that of a secret retreat just off the main avenues.
We love dogs. Dogs are allowed at this property with your acceptance of our dog rules and payment of the fee. No dogs under 1 year old. Each pet fee is good for one dog. $100 per dog per stay and it is the guest's responsibility to ensure payment of the fee and to be familiar with our dog rules. No cats or other creatures :-). Dogs are not allowed on furniture without a fresh, clean blanket that you provide that they can not scratch away. Dogs must be kept in portable kennels if you are not present.
Lastly, we recommend you consider trip insurance- especially in winter, or if you are taking classes that may be cancelled. We have discounted our rates on our direct website by an additional 7% (the total savings between our direct site and say... another famous site is now 14-21% but only if you book on our direct site). We are doing this so that you may select trip insurance during your booking process. It will be offered to you while you are completing your booking and they charge 7%. We do not make any money on that.The cancellation policy we have had for 10 years is as follows:
You may cancel within 48 hours of your booking transaction for any reason. After that you can cancel with a 10% penalty up until 60 days prior to your arrival. After that you may cancel but your deposit can not be refunded.
If you have trip insurance you can be reimbursed according to which policy you chose. And we are subsidizing it for you by having reduced our rental rates well below any other rates where our properties can be found. It's up to you, pocket the savings and run the risk of cancellation, or still get some savings and have the peace of mind of having some of your investment in your vacation protected in case of unforeseen events. Here is a link to the insurance company, otherwise it is all presented to you when you book so that you can make an informed decision at that time: https://cdn.orez.io/sc/content/docs/RentalGuardian%20-%20Overview.pdf?v=0116da11ea74cfb3b939b87f3a2c5dc676da5f83
- "Booked for next year already." - "Great location for walking through the town. Quiet, yet convenient. Private. Comfortable lodging. Bedroom is a little tight. The hosts were very communicative and gave us great information for in town hiking. This was our first time in Grand Marais and we are missing it all ready." - "Perhaps not the most scenic location in Grand Marais, but certainly a cozy getaway within walking walking distance to all the great attractions. If you're looking for a little solitude in the middle of Grand Marais, this is the spot. Met our needs and was a great stay."

Ok, so the mighty Crown Creek is not a river but the power of the rapids cascading through this property truly is mesmerizing. This 10.5 acre property consists of a one bedroom and one bathroom log cabin over-looking the Crown Creek. Trout fishing in both the Crown Creek and the adjoining Baptism River is excellent. The log cabin was just COMPLETELY renovated and everything in it is brand new. Quartz counter-tops and a copper sink highlight the new kitchen. Please view the YouTube link for more. Snowmobile and ATV trails are accessible right from the property with no need to trailer. End your night with a bonfire and smores overlooking Crown Creek in your own private setting. Please note that there is a security camera on the outside of the property.

The 'Lighthouse' is a special lodging overlooking the town and harbor of Grand Marais from its center. You are right in the heart of town within a block of everything- yet comfortably removed when you need a breather. You can sit up in bed and view the harbor and the big lake beyond. If you would like to access the sauna please contact the owners in advance or book it yourself on our website and set up a reservation- it is an add on expense and is first come first serve. Total is $49 per night plus tax and it is booked on our direct site. November and April have sauna specials- please go to the sauna listing to see those. At the Lighthouse there is covered parking that leads to a stairway that takes you up to the Lighthouse. The view of the old harbor from the balcony is stunning. There is a wrought iron table and chairs on the balcony for relaxing. Inside the Lighthouse you will find a queen bed, tile shower and bathroom, galley kitchen, custom dining table for two, LCD TV (please bring your own streaming codes, there is no cable or area broadcast content). The bed is set at an angle and faces southeast to capture the views of the harbor in the morning through large windows. Many of our guests yearn for a connection with nature, the lake, the community, a reconnection with each other, and permission to come to a full stop for deep rest. There are transom windows around the perimeter of the apartment that let in light from all points on the compass but do not compromise privacy. Eye masks are provided for those that want to sleep in :-). Notice how the light changes as the day progresses. Observe the color differences around sunset or early in the morning as the Great Lake passes through its moods. The ceiling is very high and is vaulted and timberframed with unique 'Dragon Beams' from local timberframe artisans. Topping the lighthouse is an octagonal lighthouse cupola that lets light in all day and moonlight at night and contains a genuine ships lantern that you can switch on from the bed. And on top of the cuppola is a custom copper ball, in keeping with the lighthouses of the North Shore. The antique ship's light that occupies the cuppola can guide you as you walk home after a night of festivities in the town. There is an all cedar Finnish Sauna next door to the Lighthouse for your exclusive use for an additional fee. Usage comes with robes and additional towels and complete instructions. Simply state you would like to add the Sauna to the notes of your stay when you make your reservation and we will contact you with details and availability. If sauna availability is important to make your decision to stay with us then please message us before you make your reservation so we can see if it is available during your stay. Watch the fog roll in and out from your bed while you drink your morning coffee, and listen to the strains of local live music as the town celebrates the short summers at night. The gally kitchen is small but thoroughly modern with all the necessities. The Lighthouse is above the 'North Shore Fisherman's Cabin', a restored historic log home. The Lighthouse is known for its inspiring charm. There have been plays and musicals written here, a fair number of proposals, and a good number of honeymoons. Come share the fantastic energy that is The Lighthouse.
Lastly, we are implementing an incentive for you to choose trip insurance. We have discounted our rates on our direct website here by an additional 7% (the total savings between our direct site and say... AirBnB is now 14-21% only if you book on this direct site). We are doing this so that you may select trip insurance during your booking process. It will be offered to you while you are completing your booking and they charge 7%. We do not make any money on that. The cancellation policy we have had for 10 years is as follows:
You may cancel within 48 hours of your booking for any reason. After that you can cancel with a 10% penalty up until 60 days prior to your arrival. After that you may cancel but your deposit can not be refunded.
If you have trip insurance you can be reimbursed according to which policy you chose.

It's up to you, pocket the savings and run the risk of cancellation, or still get some savings and have the peace of mind of having some of your investment in your vacation protected in case of unforeseen events.
No broadcast or cable Chanels. Smart TV only. Bring your codes for subscriptions. The sauna is available for an additional fee. Please contact the host to verify availability of the sauna for booking during the time of your stay.
- "The view of the Grand Marais harbor from The Lighthouse is awe-inspiring from dawn to dusk, particularly when the Lake Superior waves are crashing against the rocky shoreline. The windowed wooden cupula provides a wonderful sense of spatial orientation throughout the streamlined natural wood interior and it was a pleasure to return to the cabin each night after a full day of exploring the many bays and beaches along Lake Superior's north shore."

In-floor radiant heat warms you while watching a November storm unfold. Besides the incredible views in the living room there is also a gas fireplace framed with North Shore Ledge-rock. It is hard to leave the two Fjord swivel leather recliners which allow you to shift between the 180-degree Lake Superior views, the fireplace, and the Smart TV (that disappears into the wall when not in use). We encourage you to take advantage of our fully stocked kitchen and enjoy your meals on our dining table with lake views or if the weather is nice take advantage of the private deck. Sitting outside and watching the waves endlessly splash against the ledge rock, catching sunrises and sunsets, star gazing and if you are lucky we might even catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights (a favorite of many visitors). Terrace Point is the perfect place for artists, bird watchers, star gazers, nature lovers, and adventure seekers. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a special place to escape the city, explore the Gunflint Trail, hike the Superior Hiking Trail, learn a new skill at the North House Folk School, downhill or cross country ski, experience the local music scene or shop "The Coolest Small Town in America" (Grand Marais).... this is truly the perfect place! We would love to share this special place with you.
Important - Please note:
-Terrace Point is an entire “Smoke-Free” property - there is no smoking allowed in the condo OR on the entire grounds.
- Our parking area does not have the space to accommodate trailers or campers.
- Please do not walk on the lakeside in front of other units. Use the back parking area if you’d like to access the shoreline.
- "We were hoping to ski Lutsen, but with the cold temps, we wanted a special place that would make it worth the trip l, even if we didn't get out much. This place delivered. Owners are super friendly and helpful. It is meticulously organized and just plain beautiful. We hated to leave and hope to one day come back." - "We returned to this property and it was as beautiful as before! The view of the lake is amazing and I love the decor inside the condo. The owner was very nice, checking in on us. We will be back!"

Painted Rock sits perched on a quaint spit of Lake Superior ledge rock, halfway between Lutsen and Grand Marais on the edge of Cascade River State Park.
This historic log cabin has been fully restored to retain all its original charm and history of bygone days, while updated with all the modern amenities. An unusually large Main Room is home to a wood-burning fireplace, dining table, game table, and picture windows that bring the Big Lake indoors in all seasons. The master bedroom has a queen bed, and its private entrance directly onto the deck allows guests to fall asleep to the soothing sound of gently lapping waves. The bathroom is outfitted in spa-like fashion, with an oversized deep-soaker tub and heated floors. With a 2nd bedroom, also outfitted with a queen bed,, Painted Rock can comfortably sleep 4 adults.
Outside, an oversized deck sits just a few steps from the ledge rock shoreline. A pro-style gas grill makes for easy outdoor cooking and gathering. As idyllic as Painted Rock is, the cabin itself is only the beginning …
Painted Rock is situated in the heart of the most legendary and spectacular section of the entire North Shore. Except for a few private parcels of land right along the Lake Superior Shore, Painted Rock essentially sits in the middle of pristine Cascade River State Park. Hundreds of miles of Sawtooth Mountains trails (hiking in the summer, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter) are accessible right out the front door of the cabin. Cascade Lodge Restaurant & Pub is an easy 1/2-mile walk and features great food, drinks, and frequent live music. A trail leading to Cascade Falls is within a mile of Painted Rock's door! And within a 30-minute drive, everything the North Shore is known for is accessible: world-class hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking trails, skiing, galleries, restaurants, NorthHouse Folk School, and a vibrant live music scene. After all, Painted Rock sits in the heart of Cook County and Grand Marais, which was named by Travel & Leisure magazine as "America's Best Small Lake Town" in 2023!

A two bedroom one bath with a pull out couch. Private off road parking The house was remodeled and has a great yard with an awesome view over looking the harbor and Lake Superior.
This was My Mom and Dad’s house. We put a lot into the house and want it cared for the way we think it should.This is why we have a no dogs and kids between the ages of three and ten. Sorry about this but we have your reasons it’s not that we don’t like dogs or kids. That’s not it. We are doing no less than six night stays.
We hope you stay with us and love The View as much as our family.
Thanks Mickey and Dee
- "Beautiful house and perfect place to explore Grand Marais from." - "Right in town, great view of the lake, we did not want to leave. Would definitely stay here again." - "Beautiful home and a great location." - "Amazing place! Couldn’t pick a better location. Would highly recommend!" - "We love Grand Marais! We’ve been coming for years but always stayed at the municipal campground and loved it. After selling our camper, we had to find a new way to get our World’s Best Donuts and enjoy GM. Mickey and Dee’s place is perfect! Awesome location, easy walk from everything. Tons of thoughtful touches throughout. Mickey was responsive and patient when we were clueless and couldn’t figure something out. Super comfortable beds, nice linens and towels. Super clean. Nice new flooring, huge round dining table which was great for games and a fantastic deck to enjoy the lake breeze. We will definitely try to get in again."

We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return!" - "The home is wonderful with everything you need- towels, kleenex, kitchen supplies- etc. It is close to Grand Marais and many outdoor activities, such as Grand Portage State Park and Devil's Kettle.

This 12 year old beautiful home is just like new with a King size bed on the main level and a big loft area that includes a Queen bed and a sleep sofa/futon as well as a full sleep sofa/futon in the main living area.
This Pike River/Pike bay inlet property has a nice private dock with a sitting/fishing bench where you are able to sit, fish or relax. Fishing is closed on the Pike River during the month of May for spawning, but access to the lake is open. You are welcome to park your boat at the dock. We do not recommend that Fiberglass boats /or any other boats over 19' navigate up the river due to the current and fluctuation of depth caused by rain, evaporation and wind. By boat it takes around 7-10 minutes to navigate out to Pike Bay and that is the same amount of it Takes to get to a couple of good concrete launch ramps that can put you in different bays on the East side of Lake Vermilion for Fishing or just cruising around.
The fire pit area has plenty of seating and is only a stones throw away from the dock. The large deck has a patio table, new gas grill and plenty of seating if you like to sit out at night and enjoy the fresh air. The inside of the house has a full kitchen that includes a( Keurig coffeemaker, 2 slice bagel toaster, rice cooker, hand mixer and a large slow cooker). Also a full bathroom with tub/ shower and a laundry room for your use. The house has central A/C with 3 separate units. The large propane fireplace has a safety screen on it to keep hands from touching the glass. You will find two nice Samsung 43" High Definition LCD TV's in the main living area and one in the master bedroom, both with dish satellite TV for you to enjoy.
Location is key for this vacation rental. You are less than a half mile from a large gas station, convenient store with drive thru bait service that includes a new Liquor store.
Lake Vermilion is the 5th largest inland lake in Minnesota at 40,000 plus acres with over 350 islands and 1,200 miles of shoreline that makes it one of Minnesota's Top Multi-Species lakes. In the lake you will find the following Species-Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Crappies and of course Muskies. Fall Crappie fishing is good right off the dock.

Welcome to Tofte Cove! With its large flat lot, beautifully updated home and amazing views, our property is ideal for groups of all ages. It’s conveniently located near some of the North Shore’s most popular hiking, skiing, biking and dining spots.

Inside, you’ll find an inviting, upscale home recently remodeled with new appliances and all the amenities.

This property is strictly an animal-free zone due to severe allergies.
- "Once again, we very much enjoyed the accommodations at Tofte Cove. This is our third time staying here as a family. Grounds and property are lovely, the view of the lake is awesome, and the house is clean, comfortable and well-appointed with many amenities. The one thing I would suggest is to upkeep the lawn mowing on the path down to the cove- it was very overgrown and hard to navigate. The cove is a special spot and highlight of this property!"

Nestled along the bank of Lake Superior's rugged coastline, right at the very end of Cascade Beach Road, WoodSong is situated at the edge of Cascade River State Park and almost exactly between Lutsen and Grand Marais — easy 10-minute drives in either direction. Completely rebuilt, this artisan-crafted cabin was spared no expense in its attention to detail. From the overall design to the hand-forged forged ironwork, painstaking care was given to every square inch. The result is something more akin to a crafted wood sculpture than a mere dwelling. A spacious main room is built around the granite-faced wood-burning fireplace with French doors that open directly out to the Big Lake. Each of its 2 bedrooms has its own, private spa-like bath, complete with deep soaking tub.
Outside, the charm is in full force … Not only is WoodSong's patio a stone's throw from Lake Superior's lapping waves, but it also has a lake-side covered porch. Repurposed from an original, historic North Shore fish house — one of the few that remain standing from that bygone era — time with coffee, wine, and friends is about as close to North Shore ecstasy as it gets! As idyllic as WoodSong is, the cabin itself is only the beginning …
WoodSong is situated in the heart of the most legendary and spectacular section of the entire North Shore. Hundreds of miles of Sawtooth Mountains trails (hiking in the summer, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter) are accessible right out the front door of the cabin. Cascade Lodge Restaurant & Pub is an easy 1/2-mile walk and features great food, drinks, and frequent live music. A trail leading to Cascade Falls is only 1 mile from WoodSong's door. And within a 30-minute drive, everything the North Shore is known for is accessible: world-class hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking trails, skiing, galleries, restaurants, NorthHouse Folk School, and a vibrant live music scene. After all, WoodSong sits in the heart of Cook County and Grand Marais, which was named by Travel & Leisure magazine as "America's Best Small Lake Town" in 2023!

I stayed almost 2 weeks here. Only downsides are the traffic noise, Canadian Geese in the yard and flies. Welcome to the North Shore." - "Our stay was absolutely perfect. The property is beautiful and well-kept. The location is excellent. We would definitely stay here again."

Welcome to the SkyHouse! This home was featured in Mn Monthly, Arch Magazine, Midwest Home, among others, and has won awards around the globe. Other than her sister properties the Horizon, and the smaller Aurora, there is nothing like this anywhere on Earth. These are unique, and are a limited design intended to inspire. Enjoy the unique beauty of Grand Marais and the harbor from the panoramic window views of this beautiful home. Designed by celebrated Minnesota architect David Salmela to capture all the needs and dreams of a visitor to Grand Marias. Come enjoy this cool cabin in America's "Coolest Small Town". By design, the Sky House provides for all the needs of a vacationing party of up to 6 people in a 1264 Sq. Ft. home but 4 people are ideal. We are a dog friendly stay with the payment of the appropriate fee and understanding of the rules. The Sky House provides an inspiring, modern space that allows for privacy among those sharing the lodging, and also provides a breathtaking great room area on the top floor with fantastic views of the Grand Marais harbor, the neighborhood, and the town. Everything is in short walking distance from our micro community right in the heart of Grand Marais. Every restaurant, bar, coffee shop, gallery, and Grand Marais' famous beach are all a very short stroll from this private residence. The home is designed in modern Nordic fashion. The design is contextual architecture that completes a timeline of Scandinavian and Nordic design that the owners began on the property next door that also honored northern buildings in the roots of their designs. There is off street parking under a sod roofed carport. There is also an electric car charging station in the car port. Walk up to the entry area and pass under the arch to the first of 3 decks where there is room to store bikes in summer, and once inside, there is plenty of room to shake off the snow, hang the coats and set down the skis or snowshoes. Each bedroom is very private is separated from the other by a soundproofed floor and ceiling for maximum privacy. Each bedroom also has its own restroom with shower, work station, free standing closet, queen bed, and balcony or patio with great views for getting away from the group. Continuing up the inspiring staircase leads you to the primary gathering area on the top floor. This area is breathtaking with its expansive windows, view of the town and harbor, Lake Superior and the grounds. It is simply the best view from a lodging in Grand Marais. There is a fully modern and capable kitchen, an architect designed built in sofa for single sleepers, and a contemporary gas fireplace. The sofa can sleep one adult or two children as is, or it can be modified to sleep one adult above and one adult on floor cushions. Note the unique skylight with natural light filtering treatments and the push button electronic pop up television that you can leave hidden if you wish. There is also a wrap around deck on this top level with fantastic view of the rooftops and harbor and the town and of course Lake Superior. There is a utility room with full size washer and dryer. Everything about the Sky House is designed with environmental sustainability in mind. These homes have an incredibly small footprint both structurally and environmentally. The foundations were designed to take up as little of the yard as possible- by being small at the start and increasing as you go up just like the old Stabur upon which this design is based. No cost has been spared to make the Sky House the highest quality, most significant architectural addition to Grand Marais' beautiful landscape. We hope you will find it warm, welcoming, and a once in a lifetime experience in one of the world's most magical places. Sauna is available on a first come first served basis and is private- message owner to verify availability prior to completing your reservation.
- "This property was perfect for our visit to the north shore. Comfortably slept 4 adults and had every amenity we could have asked for. The views of the harbor were expansive. We will be planning a return trip!" - "We loved staying here and it was such a convenient location to walk into town for meals or shopping. I also took my dog to the local dog park that Todd had recommended!" - "Really wonderful, unique, and charming location! Very clean with all the comforts of home. The rooms feel very private and almost no sound carries between levels. We brought our 2 year old and he is very cautious, but the space would probably be better for children who can be safe on stairs. The hosts have so many unique touches to the property and the skyhouse has an unparalled view of the harbor. Extremely convienient and walkable to all the restaurants and sights in town. Highly recommend."

BIPOC Welcome!
Our very spacious lodging was originally built as an artists studio. We kept the open concept with amazing sky lights and lighting in the kitchen and shower room. Windows in the front of the studio face Lake Superior. Sleeping space is separated from dining and living space. In addition, the shower room is separated from the toilet room to accommodate better usage of facilities. Deck on the Lake is available to guests.
Recently added is an electric fireplace for that comfy feeling after a long day hiking or other outside activities.
I am pet friendly. Pets must be kenneled if left alone at all. You must provide your own kennel. Please relieve your dogs often to avoid accidents on my carpets. I charge $100 for damage fee for any and all urine accidents.
We have a kitchen with stove and oven. We also have provided a Keurig coffee maker, a hot water pot, an electric fry pan, microwave, instant pot, and refrigerator.
WiFi is available but no tv service.
