2 Bedroom House in Grand Marais

Welcome to the SkyHouse! This home was featured in Mn Monthly, Arch Magazine, Midwest Home, among others, and has won awards around the globe. Other than her sister properties the Horizon, and the smaller Aurora, there is nothing like this anywhere on Earth. These are unique, and are a limited design intended to inspire. Enjoy the unique beauty of Grand Marais and the harbor from the panoramic window views of this beautiful home. Designed by celebrated Minnesota architect David Salmela to capture all the needs and dreams of a visitor to Grand Marias. Come enjoy this cool cabin in America's "Coolest Small Town". By design, the Sky House provides for all the needs of a vacationing party of up to 6 people in a 1264 Sq. Ft. home but 4 people are ideal. We are a dog friendly stay with the payment of the appropriate fee and understanding of the rules. The Sky House provides an inspiring, modern space that allows for privacy among those sharing the lodging, and also provides a breathtaking great room area on the top floor with fantastic views of the Grand Marais harbor, the neighborhood, and the town. Everything is in short walking distance from our micro community right in the heart of Grand Marais. Every restaurant, bar, coffee shop, gallery, and Grand Marais' famous beach are all a very short stroll from this private residence. The home is designed in modern Nordic fashion. The design is contextual architecture that completes a timeline of Scandinavian and Nordic design that the owners began on the property next door that also honored northern buildings in the roots of their designs. There is off street parking under a sod roofed carport. There is also an electric car charging station in the car port. Walk up to the entry area and pass under the arch to the first of 3 decks where there is room to store bikes in summer, and once inside, there is plenty of room to shake off the snow, hang the coats and set down the skis or snowshoes. Each bedroom is very private is separated from the other by a soundproofed floor and ceiling for maximum privacy. Each bedroom also has its own restroom with shower, work station, free standing closet, queen bed, and balcony or patio with great views for getting away from the group. Continuing up the inspiring staircase leads you to the primary gathering area on the top floor. This area is breathtaking with its expansive windows, view of the town and harbor, Lake Superior and the grounds. It is simply the best view from a lodging in Grand Marais. There is a fully modern and capable kitchen, an architect designed built in sofa for single sleepers, and a contemporary gas fireplace. The sofa can sleep one adult or two children as is, or it can be modified to sleep one adult above and one adult on floor cushions. Note the unique skylight with natural light filtering treatments and the push button electronic pop up television that you can leave hidden if you wish. There is also a wrap around deck on this top level with fantastic view of the rooftops and harbor and the town and of course Lake Superior. There is a utility room with full size washer and dryer. Everything about the Sky House is designed with environmental sustainability in mind. These homes have an incredibly small footprint both structurally and environmentally. The foundations were designed to take up as little of the yard as possible- by being small at the start and increasing as you go up just like the old Stabur upon which this design is based. No cost has been spared to make the Sky House the highest quality, most significant architectural addition to Grand Marais' beautiful landscape. We hope you will find it warm, welcoming, and a once in a lifetime experience in one of the world's most magical places. Sauna is available on a first come first served basis and is private- message owner to verify availability prior to completing your reservation.

Summary: This VRBO home is very charming with its European-style decor. We loved the separation of the bottom two levels where the bedrooms are located, each featuring a bed and a desk, and spacious enough for a twin blow-up mattress. The top level (primary living area) had breathtaking views of Lake Superior and downtown Grand Marais. The home is exceptionally clean, and the instructions were very detailed. We have been going to Grand Marais for years and I cannot believe we have not found this gem sooner! We may have found our go-to place for our trips up North when we are without the camper.
