A very good place to stay. It was perfectly located to serve as a jump point for whatever you may want to do in the area. We liked having the beach within a 2 minute drive as well as most of the local restaurants. The place was roomy for a family of 3. I'd recommend staying here.

Grand Marais Getaway

The property was very charming (and quiet!), perfect for our group of 4 friends. It’s located close to many amazing natural attractions and beautiful beaches. The bikes and kayaks on site gave us plenty to do. We hope to visit again!

Great Location

This is the 3rd time my sister and I have stayed at Vacation Paradise. We come to Grand Marais annually to hunt for rocks. We love that the house is within walking distance to all the restaurants in town. Vacation Paradise is so comfortable and decorated nicely with a beach theme.

Nice place to stay

This was a nice house to stay at. Very close to the beach, which is what we were there for. We did not use them, but they had kayaks and bikes available. The yard was a decent size and good for the kids to play in.
