Sometimes the photos of properties look nice, but when you get there, it looks. . . . . different. This is not one of those times. It looked so great in the pictures we were convinced it would be a let down. If anything, the pictures do not do the property justice. Otters, loons, other waterfowl outside your back window. The sound of waves hitting the shore. What else could you want. Carrie was responsive to any questions or issues we had. There is plenty of space to gather and still some space to have alone time if you want. We will stay here again if we gather in this area again.
This is my second time staying at this property and it’s even better than I remembered. It’s one of the most beautiful cabins I’ve ever stayed in and is right on Lake Superior. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun trip to the North Shore!

Highly Recommend for a Large Group
Our group of 12 adults, with just two couples, stayed 4 nights. The location was perfect for skiing and exploring the area from Tofte to the Gunflint Trail. Plus the view of Lake Superior was over the top fantastic. Sunrise and sunset were spectacular. Plenty of room for 12 people to enjoy each others company without feeling crowded. Yet enough room to get away from the rest of the group and find your quiet space. We had 5 vehicles and there was plenty of parking area even in the winter. Communication with the host was top notch and made our stay stressless. When the cost was divided by 12 it was less expensive per person and much more enjoyable than a hotel or lodge.

Perfect Place for a Family Thanksgiving
The home was perfect for our family’s Thanksgiving get-away! This home had everything we needed - well stocked kitchen (lots of plates, silverware, utensils, etc.), nice bedrooms and a large living room for everyone to relax and enjoy the holiday.
Hopefully we can come back again soon!

Room Enough for Ten
Living/dining room has Lake view, roomy & relaxing for our 8 adults/2 kids for a week. We knew no washer/dryer but regretted it. Someone had to sit in Grand Marais laundromat while others had fun. Bedrooms roomy! Some had shelves instead of dressers, some lacked blackout blinds, heat downstairs uneven, some had nightstand with lamp on only one side of the bed. Probably a one time thing, but kitchen chopping board was caked with food & smelly stuff in waste basket. Enjoyed the pool table. Good location. We enjoyed our stay.

ski/hike weekend w/teen friends & family
What a gorgeous setting! Loved the great room for gathering, we enjoyed playing games in the evenings, kitchen was perfect for cooking together and the proximity to Grand Marais made dining out & shops easy. Kids ski'd during the day and rest of us enjoyed hiking and relaxing. Carrie was very responsive & helpful when we had questions or needed assistance. We'd love to return and have recommended it to others. Thanks very much

Wonderful house in a wonderful setting
Stone Arch is literally a stone's throw from the shores of Lake Superior and is a stunning setting to gather as a family for rest. The house is extremely comfortable and easy to facilitate a large family gathering with plenty of space spread out. It also is a perfect location about 5 miles south of Grand Marais, providing a great base from which to spend time skiing at Lutsen, hiking at Cascade State Park and spending time in Grand Marais. The property has some good space outside from which to watch the sunrise or sunset, and a paved trail is close by for running. The house was quiet and private, and every view from the house is like a postcard -- woods or lake or both. We will definitely keep this on our list for returning in the future!
