My husband and I have traveled from Texas to the Wisconsin/Minnesota area twice now. I’m the Texan! I give the whole experience 10+ out of 10! I’m not much of an outdoorsy person but, loved our stay. Comfortable, clean, so very friendly owners, beautiful location! We will be back!!
All around great lodging with a variety of options just outside of Grand Marais. The platform tents were spacious, clean and a perfect way to camp with a bed and big protections. The bathrooms were exceptionally clean. The grounds were peaceful. The only feedback would be the pics on the booking site for Platform Tent #1 should match the actual tent. We thought we were getting 2 twin beds vs 1 bed.
My friend and I were hiking the Superior Hiking Trail and were rained on for 2.5 days straight. We showed up and spoke with the owner, they had more space than usual, a lesson to call ahead, but we ended up with the bunkhouse. It included 4 bunks a bed and a few chairs/couches, more than enough for us... even after we hung our hiking gear all over the room.
Everything was very clean, the staff and owner were exceptionally friendly, and the 2 dogs that roam the property were fun.
We both would highly recommend this place and their sister business Hungry Hippie Tacos in Grand Marais.
I would suggest anyone to this location to stay as it has really nice rooms, kitchen and other amenities too. It is located in a beautiful place. They have camping sites too but I stayed inside the hostel. Their restrooms are maintained very very clean. Very well maintained kitchen too. The host was very quick in helping with things. It is not so much away from the highway. Recommend 100%
The Hungry Hippie was chill and lovely. The setting is bucolic and our stay was pretty quiet. What the hosts lacked in hospitality was made up for by the warm and chatty person who cleans during the day. We stayed upstairs in the suite and it was spacious with just two of us. Do note: We chose a hostel because we wanted a kitchen to cook in, and we just made the assumption that a hostel would have that. There was a microwave, a coffee maker, and downstairs there was one plug-in hot plate — but definitely no kitchen. No worries; we ate in town and it was great.
