With simple modern décor and generous windows, you could pretend you’re on a houseboat with these close-to-the-shore rooms. Nice bonus: An easy stroll to Artist’s Point for sunset, downtown restaurants and pubs, or the almost-next-door co-op for meals to go. With East Bay’s balconies and patios, you can’t get a much better breakfast view. 21 Wisconsin St., Grand Marais; 1-800-414-2807; eastbaysuites.com
