Discover America’s Best Small Lake Town for Summer Memories, Autumn Colors, and Stunning Winter Lights
Two hours north of Duluth seems like an unlikely spot for most things, much less America’s best small lake town. However, should you venture to Grand Marais, that’s exactly what you’ll find. In-the-know travelers flock here looking for an increasingly rare vintage seaside vibe, adventures into the state’s famed Boundary Waters, and local-yet-world-class art. Set along the forested edges of Lake Superior, up the state’s North Shore, this is also Minnesota’s artsiest town.
