Fabulous week at The Dutch Cottage
Our family had a great week at The Dutch Cottage in early July. It was clean, comfortable and great proximity to beaches, Pictured Rocks and various amenities.

Very quiet, close to everything,
Great location, just an easy walk to town and beaches and right off 58 to get to the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. We would definitely stay in Grand Marais again, rather than in Munising. I saw some comments in the guest book describing "The Cottage" as cozy, but we would describe it as a rather worn, dark, dated cabin with old couches, stuffed chairs and beds and a basement that I would never go into. I guess that's in the eye of the beholder. Surfaces were clean (eg, floors, counters) and kitchen is very well equipped. Although the cabin is just across a narrow road from the city campground, it was extremely quiet. We heard almost no noises at all, at any time of day. Really nice to be able to use the garage. It was raining when we left and we appreciated being able to load our car out of the rain. The downstairs bedroom was OK with worn sheets, the pillows had no pillow liners which is a bit of an ick-factor and it had only one too-warm comforter. Room has good ventilation with windows on two sides and a ceiling fan. Bathroom is adequate with large shower and plenty of towels. The upstairs gets extremely hot even if the outside temperature is only 70 degrees. With fans it cools off around midnight to more sleep-able temp. One bed was unusable as it was so lumpy and saggy. The stairs were almost hazardous to climb and and after tripping several times on the floor rugs we removed them. With a few improvements, The Cottage could be a lot more comfortable.

Cute, clean, well supplied little cottage.
Once we purchased firewood and had a fire, the cottage warmed nicely.

No issues. Everything was as described.
Rented for a two day snowmobile trip. The place was as described. It was clean. Convenient location to trails and rentals. Leslie was responsive to all questions. We would rent again.
