Nice unit and view of the lake. Didn't like 16 stairs to get down to it. Could use more utensils, hangers and a place to set your suitcase! Limited food selection.

The king suite with a jetted tub was amazing. The views, the room, cleanliness, amenities, were all top notch. Room service was incredibly fast and burgers were delivered and delicious (5 stars!)! Ribeye steaks (2 stars) were ok in person at the Bluefin Grille, pickup a local cut of steak and grill it yourself on the grills at the property! Everything else about the property was great. Very cozy. Will be returning to the Surfside location in the future!

Right on Lake Superior. Can walk 20 steps out the patio, and are on the shore of Lake Superior. Great sunrise and sunset! Excellent lake air. Cozy and comfy one bedroom with all the amenities including a big soaking jet tub, fire place, rotating rocking chairs, windows with shades facing the lake. Everything was perfect!

Quiet. Peaceful. The linens were excellent quality! We had lots of towels, and cosmetic towels🙌. They space was private and perfect for the four of us. Beautiful sunrise! We had 4 porches/decks with chairs to relax in. Space for computer work, space to rest, cook, stretch out, dine, breakfast seating too, easy, quiet. Plenty of parking, and the grounds were nice. We had everything we would need to cook if had chosen to. *next trip, we will stay longer, cook in and enjoy the decks more!

North Shore Birthday Trip
I absolutely loved this resort and I cannot wait to visit again. I wasn't able to make it there my first booked night due to weather and they were kind enough to not charge me for that night. The room had tons of natural light and gorgeous views of Lake Superior. The lady that was working at the Guest Services desk was very kind and gave good tips on the sights to see in the area. The location was great - lots of good hiking trails and waterfalls nearby. The food and service at the Bluefin Grille were also excellent. This place is a nice slice of paradise on the North Shore!
