Surfside On Lake Superior

This place is amazing. I accidentally booked a non pet suite online and when I called they fixed everything without hassle. The suite was beautiful and the bath salts fantastic. I can't wait to return!

We got there late Sunday evening and got the last master suite of the day. The view, I imagined to head towards the lake, however unfortunately was blocked by a falling tree and bushes. The next morning I didn’t think any of it, I just left a message asking if I could switch rooms. Soon after, somebody called and left us a voicemail, THE SWEETEST VOICEMAIL EVER, to let us know there’s a room we could move to with a better lakeview. I apologized that housekeeping staff had to clean our used room that morning but the hostess was so gracious and supportive. Thanks so much to Emily, the reservation representative/front desk/hostess, our vacation got 1000% better. We had such a great night. Thanks so much also to the housekeeping staff who did the cleaning to welcome us into our new suite and cleaned up after our used room. We apologize for that and we are so thankful for your work!

We stayed at Bluefin’s “Surfside” location for our honeymoon. We loved the spacious room with large tub, comfy robes, complimentary champagne, comfy mattress and it was very quiet and clean. Nightly campfire with s’mores was fun and being able to play board games indoors when it was rainy outside. Loved that it was a dog-friendly place to stay but unfortunate that we couldn’t participate in any of the complimentary activities such as kayaking (with our dog). The room service options from Waves Cafe and Bluefin Grill were very confusing and we received conflicting information from numerous staff members throughout our stay which was frustrating. Our favorite places to eat ended up being Coho Cafe a mile or two away and Fisherman’s Daughter in Grand Marais and Shroeder Bakery a few miles away. They were more affordable and better quality food than what we initially had from Bluefin Grill. We were slightly disappointed by the lake view from our room because it felt like there were a lot of trees/tall grass/bushes in the way plus the very tiny trail that led out to the rocks was very overgrown and difficult to walk through without being concerned with ticks/bugs. No blackout curtains was a huge bummer but thankfully guest services had complimentary eye masks available so I could actually get some sleep. All in all it was a fun area to stay and explore with some pros and cons.

Fiancée and i booked a one night getaway for our anniversary( plus i also proposed at split rock). This place was amazing and so accommodating. The room was amazing with the spa tub and fireplace with lakeside view. Definitely recommend and will be coming back for our anniversary!

Thank you to Surfside for an incredible stay! My husband and I planned a last minute anniversary getaway and this did not disappoint! We’ve been lucky with some beautiful late summer weather so it was amazing to enjoy this space with no bugs! Upon arrival we were greeted so kindly, check-in was fast and their guest services/lobby/cafe area was so cute, clean and tidy. Also complimentary tea/coffee/water is a Our room was so beautiful, great lake views! A perfect spot to celebrate an anniversary! Took advantage of the spa and pool area, the bonfire and s’mores at night and enjoyed a nice dinner at the bluefin. We were surprised with a complimentary bottle of champagne for our anniversary, which was so wonderful - thank you so much!! Sometimes you think you gotta go for the fun adventurous trips but these relaxing ones are just as good! We will be back!!

Surfside is a beautiful little spot. It was very quiet, plenty of parking in front of the units. And even though you are right next-door to other people, you still definitely feel like you have your own space. I really enjoyed the fitness center, pool, sauna, and hot tub with a view while I was there. I also noticed in the lobby they have plenty of board games or puzzles or other entertainment things as well as free s’mores kits and it looks like they were freezing an ice rink outside, but it wasn’t cold enough for that while I was there. I would recommend this place to anyone; I was with my family and it was a great space for everyone to gather, but I think it would also be perfect for couples as well . I appreciate the ability to recycle and the stores gift shop/Little Café was convenient though. I did not purchase anything there. I liked that I had the option.

What a spectacular place! My husband and I came for a spontaneous getaway for our anniversary and Surfside did not disappoint! Michelle assisted us with our reservation and she was just delightful! She gave us many suggestions on things to do and even printed maps for us. The view of the lake from the jacuzzi tub is amazing! We ate at the restaurant at Blue Fin and it was excellent. The views, the cozy space and the wonderful service made this the perfect romantic getaway. Thank you!

Beautiful views of lake Superior. Nice facilities including a spa. Reception facility was nice but no air conditioning so open windows early!
