East Bay Suites

"My husband and I had originally booker an air bnb, but it got sold 2 months before our trip. We ended up booking a room here and I am SO GLAD we did! You are right in town, on the beach. Worlds Best Donuts are right next door, the Cook County Market happens in the parking lot across from the hotel. The service was amazing, everyone was so kind and they were very prompt. I think the only downside to our stay is we were right above the boiler room, so our room was about 79°F when we showed up. There is no AC, however with the lower summer temperatures up here, it all worked out fine! Definitely recommending them to our friends and family, and I hope we can come back sometime!"

"Hate to tell anyone about this place as I want to make sure there's availability when I return, but.....honestly the best place to stay. Our room had a kitchen and fireplace, felt just like home. My only complaint is very minor, a rather small TV. Then again I'm not here to watch TV."

"Each suite has an owner. Some suites are nice, others not so much. They are all very loud and the staff does nothing to enforce the 10:00pm to 8:00am quiet time. Our first night we had to listen to people on the bottom floor patio until well past midnight. Another night there was a party in the room above us going well past midnight. One day, the couple below us left their dog in the room alone all day and it whimpered and barked the entire time. Kids randomly run through the halls. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, excluding the mgr, but they could only do something about the noise after the fact. Lots of dogs and don’t count on the other guests to be considerate. Considering the price of the rooms, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. Oh yeah, the a/c didn’t work."

"This is my second winter staying here. The location is perfect. Make sure you get a room facing the lake. It may cost more, but totally worth it. The room is so cozy. A very well stocked kitchen. I only wish I brought a better knife for cooking. The heated floors are a nice feature. The dual fireplace is lovely. I don’t think I would even consider another place to stay in Grand Marais."

"Awesome place right on the lake! We had a 2 bed unit for a winter vacation. It was updated and clean! The views are amazing. The room was cozy and the kitchen had cookware and dishes! It's located near a grocery store if you plan to cook. We plan to return and enjoy this place in the summer."
