About this property

Pet-Friendly Studio on Croftville Road

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 as well as a fire pit overlooking the lake.

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.

It has most anything you’d need for your stay on the north shore. It’s really easy to find/quick drive from town. Plenty of space for 2 plus our medium sized dog.

Relaxing stay

This was a cute open concept space. It was nice to be right across the street from the beach and be able to access a private beach. We really enjoyed our stay. The beds were comfortable including the trundle bed. I enjoyed how accommodating it was to bring a dog.

Peaceful and dynamic stay

I love The Studio. Croftville is a very quiet neighborhood perched on beautiful and exciting Lake Superior. It’s a dynamic place to be away from everything yet so near to so much.

Relaxing weekend on the North Shore

The loft is very well equipped and in a great location. It's easy to access from Grand Marais and served as the perfect base camp to take in all the area had to offer. The loft is roomy, comfortable, and quiet. The only sounds were of the waves on the rocks. We Look forward to returning.

Making memories at the Studio

Friends of 40+ years made more memories together at this cute little studio! Accommodations were comfortable for the 3 of us plus 1 furry friend. Everything we needed was right there; a well finished kitchenette, a cozy fireplace, a nice view of the lake, and great access to the lake in a very quiet neighborhood. Lynn is a fabulous host and was very accommodating to making us feel welcome in her Studio.

Simple and comfortable

I stayed with my 2 Soft Coated wheaten terriers. Close to town and trails. Road is quiet and lake is visible from property. Rental is clean and comfortable. There is no air conditioning available, so the summer may get warm, The nighttime temperatures were in their 50s, so it was perfect when I stayed.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Arbogast

Host profile image
The Studio is Family-Owned and we enjoy Grand Marais year-round. We have owned our home for 11 years and have converted what was originally an Artist's Studio into a short-term rental space. We love sharing our beautiful place on the North Shore.

Why they chose this property

Our property is located on a very quiet road. It is popular among locals and visitors as being the walkers road

What makes this property unique

Doesn’t get any prettier that Grand Marais. If you’re lucky the aurora is active. However, Grand Marais is one of the few dark spots left in US. The sky at night is amazing. If you are here during a full moon and with our skylights, you’ll think someone left the lights on outside. The lake can be very active and amazing as well. Our local photographers have captured some gorgeous sights.
