We loved our stay so much! Every detail about the property helped us feel at home. The large property made it feel secluded, but we were close to town and Pictured Rocks, making it very convenient. We enjoyed seeing so.many butterflies and birds in the yard. Would love to stay here again next summer, highly recommended!!!

Plover Retreat was clean and cozy. Our dog truly enjoyed the area to run around in the yard. Perfect walking distance to Grand Marais. Very comfortable sleeping. A few suggestions : improve signage re: the dangerous hill down to the stream. Update the info re the beach. It is definitely more than a 5 min walk. It took us a few tries to figure out we needed to search for the path on Ellen St. it is not well marked. We were not sure if we were crossing private property. Once we found the beach, it was delightful! I would suggest adding more glassware and pots and pans with lids that match for cooking. Otherwise we had a wonderful time with plenty of solitude, exploration and joy in Grand Marais. Thank you.

Very nice cabin in secluded location but very close to town. The property manager was very helpful in guiding us around some road construction.

Perfect little town for a getaway. We stayed for 3 nights and explored the area. The restaurants were great, the beaches were beautiful and the cabin was cozy to come back to. Nice and quiet, offered the right amount of privacy and the bonfire area was perfect. Highly recommend.
