We enjoyed our stay at East Bay Suites with beautiful views and a cozy atmosphere. The room was well-appointed, and the location was excellent for exploring Grand Marais, but we did find the dining options somewhat limited during our visit. Overall, it was a great getaway, but it would be nice to have more meal choices on-site.

We had a wonderful time at this hotel and it was the perfect spot for our anniversary getaway! The location is stunning, right by the lake, and the amenities like the fire pits and s'mores kits were delightful. While the service was excellent with incredibly helpful staff, we did notice that our suite could have been cleaner, which put a slight damper on our experience. Overall, we loved our stay and the beautiful surroundings but hope for better room upkeep next time.

I was extremely pleased with my stay at East Bay Suites! The two-bedroom suite was perfect for our family of five, providing ample space and a breathtaking view of Lake Superior. The location was ideal, allowing us to walk anywhere we wanted in Grand Marais. However, we did face a significant issue with air conditioning during our stay, which was disappointing given the high nightly rate.

We’ve loved staying at East Bay Suites over the years, especially because it’s right on the lake and very dog-friendly. The rooms are cozy and well-kept with stunning views, but this time we faced some cleanliness issues, which was disappointing for the price we paid. However, the staff was incredibly welcoming and always eager to help.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The one-bedroom suite was fantastic with a fully equipped kitchen, perfect for cooking meals. Plus, the private deck offered stunning sunrise views. However, while the room I stayed in was cozy, I wish it had a lake view. Overall, this spot is a real gem for anyone visiting, especially for its proximity to all the fun in Grand Marais.
