Nice layout of the floor plan, lots of windows to hear the lake.
We didn’t ski, but the stay was absolutely awesome! Beautiful sunrise and could hear the waves all evening long. Went there overnight for my wifes birthday! Would definitely love to come here again. Was a wonderful time.
This is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed in several decades of travel. The accommodations are very nicely done and of course the 'big lake' is the star of the show. This is a great place!

The Inn was absolutely perfect for our weekend getaway! Exactly as pictured; clean, safe, quiet area with great outdoor area for camp fires and beautiful lake view. The sounds of Lake Superior all day and night was very relaxing. We look forward to staying here again.

Great Weekend Getaway
My friend and I had a great time at the cottages. They are nicely furnished and provide great views of Lake Superior. The wood fireplace was great in the evenings.
My partner and I had a pleasant summer getaway over our first anniversary here. We enjoyed the many features including the lakeside views, giant whirlpool tub, fireplace and well appointed kitchen. The management were friendly and helpful.
Wish we could have stayed longer!
The back yard overlooking the lake — gorgeous!!
What a great place too disconnect and relax.
I want to come back and stay longer.
The owners were terrific and accommodating!
Beautiful setting; LOVED lake view! Peaceful and quiet. Completely well stocked. Loved the outside setting accomodations as well. Loved the jet tub! would stay again! D & J from Wheatland ND
Super clean and homey! Awesome jacuzzi. Easily one of the coziest, sweetest, most beautiful little home for a few days. The view is amazing, make sure you watch the sunrise! :) and it’s just a short drive to Grand Marais cute little downtown.
We enjoyed our stay in #5. It was very clean. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it seemed well stocked. The location is phenomenal with great views and multiple places to sit outside on property. Check in and out was super simple.
The major negative for us was privacy. We enjoyed our jacuzzi tub, but the window on one side was another guest balcony. Same with the window by our bathroom. We thought visiting in the winter when the windows wouldn’t be open and/or people less likely to sit outside would be nice. The other negative was the shower head, if you adjusted the temp before getting in it would spray out the door.
We would stay here again if the opportunity arises.
We fell asleep every night to the sound of Lake Superior waves (some crashing, others lapping). The short drive from Grand Marais and that walkability of Croftsville Rd. are a big plus. We did most of our own cooking in the well-appointed kitchen, including having friends for dinner one evening. The bedroom with the spa was delightful after hiking. The living/dining room has a wonderful view of the lake. Heated floors and gas (bedroom) and wood (living room) fireplaces keep it very cozy. The staircase requires some thoughtful maneuvering and we wouldn't recommend this suite for someone with disabilities or difficulty with stairs. Our hosts clearly put a lot of thought and artistic savvy into the design and are good administrators as well as very friendly. They live on-site. We signed up already for a return rental next summer.
Fantastic location. Great accommodations. Perfumed laundry detergent and fabric softener.
This would be a 5-star rave review - beautiful setting and almost new, wonderfully appointed apartment - but for their use of perfumed soaps, detergents, and fabric softener that permeated the air both indoors and outdoors. If you are sensitive to perfumes this would, very unfortunately, not be the place for you.
Croftville Cottages was the perfect choice for our special get-away! Incredible views, cozy accommodations, and a romantic atmosphere. Can’t wait to stay here again!
Very nice indeed. Certainly worthy of all the positive reviews here. The photos are an accurate representation. Very clean. A recommendation if you stay here, open up all the windows and enjoy the sound therapy that the waves provide, it's surprisingly effective.

Fantastic spot!
We booked this trip on a whim and were absolutely delighted with how it turned out! The lodging was far better than we anticipated. The space was cozy, yet had enough room for whatever we needed. We loved the view, fireplace, and hot tub. The owners were beyond gracious and extremely helpful to us. We will absolutely return and have recommended the Inn at Croftville Road Cottages to our friends and family already. THANKS for a wonderful weekend!
