The Cascade Lodge was super! First of all, very clean and has friendly staff. But, best of all it was lovely. The interior has a Scandinavian esthetic. Simple Scandi style furniture and artwork. It was so inviting and comfortable. Our room was large with beautiful, comfortable chairs. There were hooks on the wall for conveniently hanging our jackets, backlit bathroom mirror. So many details were attended to. The restaurant food was delicious. Finally, we hiked right out the back door to Cascade Falls and to Lookout Mountain. Thank you for a great stay!!!

The Lodge location, views of the lake and proximity to Grand Marais was wonderful. Our room was recently renovated with the exception of the tub itself which could have been scrubbed out. The bed was comfortable and the furnishings simple, comfortable and attractive. The stair depth was a bit shallow so I ascended and descending sideways. The communal space was lovely as was the view of Lake Superior. The lodge is located across the road from the lake. The road is the main thoroughfare on the north shore so traffic was fairly constant and loud. Unfortunately, it was hot outside so our windows were open (no A/C) and the traffic was loud - throughout the night - interrupting our sleep. There is a restaurant associated with the lodge on the other side of the parking lot. It was very convenient for breakfast which was delicious.

The resort was full to capacity but was still very peaceful. No blaring music or noisy vehicles. It was my 7th time there this year and is very consistent in good service and cleanliness. Nothing fancy, no frills. The restaurant has good food although extremely noisy in the summer but that is how their money is made.

Our stay greatly exceeded our expectations. The lodge would be quite a romantic getaway if we hadn’t been staying with two young children. The room was very clean and furnished beautifully. There was a living area downstairs that was stocked with games, books, and nice sofas with windows overlooking the big lake. It was a short drive into downtown Grand Marais, and a short hike to the Cascade Falls. The restaurant next door offers a discount with your stay and is quite tasty. The front office staff were all friendly. I hope I get the opportunity to stay here again.

We were pleasantly surprised by the peace and quiet at the site, in spite of busy North Shore traffic. We stayed in the Birdhouse cabin, which was small and cozy. It's a short walk to Lake Superior, and we enjoyed just sitting and watching the waves. However, the on-site restaurant is always crazy busy. We never got to eat there. We brought a cooler, and there was a small microwave and refrigerator in our cabin, but I wish we had brought more food with us. A lot of time was wasted finding a place to eat and waiting for service. Also, the wifi isn't the greatest, so some people might find that frustrating. Just shut off your phone and enjoy the scenery! Overall, its a beautiful place and a great location as a base while you explore the area.
