resting under tall pines rustling in the cool breezes off Lake Superior... watching the moon create millions of diamonds on the lake...eating popcorn infront of a Franklin fireplace after a day of exploring the beauty of the North Shore of Superior. You can have it all at Nelson's Travelers Rest...and you can have it without the hustle, bustle and noise of the typical freeway motel.
You won't even have to go out to eat if you feel like keeping your slippers on and snacking from the kitchenette in your cabin or duplex. When you are rested you can participate in the myriad of activities in or near Grand Marais. A stroll around the protected harbor, just a short walk away, will invigorate you with fresh air and beautiful scenery. A shopping tour will avail to you many new and interesting gifts, clothing and special gear for various activities.
You may choose to relax in the indoor municipal swimming pool and sauna, a short distance away. The Gunflint Trail, a road which starts just a few blocks down the highway, winds its way northward through the Superior National Forest offering some breathtaking scenery and glimpses of wildlife, and leads you to many lakes in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area where you'll find incredible canoeing, boating and fishing. Come and stay a day, a week, or as long as you want.
You won't want to leave...
