This past June was our third time staying at the Cottage on the Big Lake and we look forward to coming again. It's everything you could want and more if you are looking for a cottage on Lake Superior that's in a great location, excellently equipped with everything you need (no TV, which is very nice), has a great beach for walking and collecting rocks and is convenient to Grand Marais (think shopping, good food, and the world's best donuts), waterfalls and parks. The owners seem to have thought of everything, even leaving coats in a closet for guests unprepared for a cool morning. During our visit deer walked across the yard, eagles soared overhead, hummingbirds fed at a feeder on the deck, and fox barked us awake one morning. My wife and I are eager to return.
