We stayed here for one night in August. It was a spur of the moment trip, so we had limited selection of rooms, but had no complaints about the room we got - unit #6. For the same price as a regular motel room in town, we had a small suite, with kitchen, living area and 2 beds. It was a short 5 minute drive into Grand Marais, which was more than compensated for by the lovely location and spacious unit.
The room was very clean. The grounds are neatly kept, there is lots of wood for the firepits. The view of the lake is wonderful.
There was no hairdryer in the room, but Lee had one available to borrow.
We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend it to anyone.

We really liked the Thomsonite Beach Inn and Suites. We stayed in their most economical room and it was a great value for July 4th weekend. They have 3 fire pits and lots of free fire wood to use. One pit was literally on the rocks just above the water. We loved sitting in front of the fire, watching the waves come in, and staring up at the stars!

We stayed at Thomsonite Beach Inn & Suite for a 3 night getaway from the kids in August 2010. Our stay was wonderful, relaxing and just what we needed. The shore was amazing! I loved hearing the waves crash on the shore as I was laying down to go to sleep.

The room was neat and clean. We had our own kitchen unit and own little cabin. It was perfect.

As for location...it's just before Grand Marais. It was nice not to be in the middle of town but it was close enough to go for the day.

My husband and I stayed here during our Lake Superior Circle Tour by motorcycle. We did not know anything about the area and picked Thomsonite Beach Inn based on reviews. What a nice place! They have a great location on Lake Superior with a warm and welcoming facility. The room was comfortable and attractive. The bathroom could use a little work but overall was good. In a day when most hotels give you so little water pressure you have to stay in the shower twice as long as normal, we had to turn the flow down or risk losing our skin!

If we had known how nice Grand Marais is we would have stayed more than one night at this inn.
