About this house rental

The Mökki Cottage is an excellent home base from which to explore and enjoy Grand Marais - whether that’s summer festivals, fall colors, fat biking, or Nordic skiing. Located only steps away from the harbor, this quaint home offers a rural feel while being within minutes of restaurants, cafes, pubs, shops, the North House Folk School, the Art Colony, and so much more.

The space
This cozy house has great curb appeal with its colorful and cheery Scandinavian design. Its warm interior finish has preserved some of the original 1938 construction such as maple hardwood flooring throughout.

The home offers a nice balance of natural light through plentiful windows while still offering privacy from the lovely wooded property. The raised bed garden, wildflowers, clover ground cover, yellow roses, and mountain ash trees fill the yard giving it a wonderfully wild and natural feel.

The home has a cafe/booth-style eating nook with wrap-around windows…perfect for quaint dinners or for reading and writing.

The galley-style kitchen has a bar stool seating area; ideal for hanging out during meal preparation or simply for sipping your morning coffee.

Sit back in the open-concept living room or in the summer, relax on the lovely front porch in a comfy hanging chair.

The cabin is designed for 2 but can handle up to 4 guests who are looking for a more affordable stay. There is a double pull-out sofa with a mattress topper in the living room - offering limited privacy and comfort for the additional guests.

Guest access
As guests, you'll have private access to the entire house for the duration of your stay.

Neighborhood overview
A quaint, walkable area, the cabin is nestled just across from the local library and one street away from Lake Superior and the old Gunflint Trail road.

Getting around
The beauty of this house lies not only in its charm, but also in its accessible location. Shops, restaurants and the beach are just a short walk from the cabin. You can head up the Gunflint Trail with access to the boundary waters by car just minutes from the house.

Other things to note:
*Kids Stay Free (12 years & under)

Clean, cozy, unique & close to the downtown area (shopping, restaurants, activities etc.). If you’re staying while there’s an event or festival in town (like we did), be aware there is NO OFF STREET PARKING (or reserved on street parking for the property) so you may have to park a few blocks away like we did.

The cottage just was great, from its origin story - it was built from a Montgomery Ward catalog kit! - to its current whimsical decor. Even though you are right downtown, the trees make it seem you're out in the woods.

Cozy, comfy, quaint. Nicely decorated and appointed, but not fancy, just the way we like it! Everything we needed and felt like home!

Underwhelmed. Cabin was 30 degrees upon arrival. It took a few hours to heat to 65 degrees. A cold night. The pictures online look cute but the place in person was not cozy. We have stayed at other mokki places and loved them but I’d use this one as a last resort.

Great location. The cabin in small but meets the needs a person would want for a nice getaway. Walking distance to downtown and right behind a brewery with great food and beer.
