Sand Hills Lighthouse Inn

This review is only to cover a tour of the inn that my husband and I took. We were greeted by Mary who took us in to the living room. We noted the delicious aroma of the dessert that she was baking for the guests that evening. She explained the whole process of them obtaining the property to ALL of the renovations that were done. Hard to believe what it must have looked like when they bought it! Then we visited each room, one more extravagant then the other. Finally, we climbed into the tower to see the magnificent view of Lake Superior. It,luckily, was a beautiful day and a beautiful scene. The instant we got up to the outside of the tower, Mary took several pictures of my husband and myself. Finally, when we returned downstairs again, Mary played us a piece on the grand piano in the living room. It was a wonderful experience that all should see someday. Take the tour or spend the night; your experience will be unforgettable!

We have stayed at many B&B's during our 31 years of marriage but none compare to the uniqueness of this property! I read about Sand Hills several years ago but we finally got there this year and were enthralled with the location, history and serenity of our stay. The vision that Bill and Mary had brought the lighthouse back from the brink of destruction and the attention to every detail is truly remarkable. We were awed by their experiences, Mary's wonderful piano playing AND the guests we met there. We were fortunate enough to be there at the same time as Don, the 91 year-old gentleman who was stationed at the lighthouse during his Coast Guard bootcamp days and returns every year. History come alive and an experience that will not be for us once-in-a-lifetime! We will be back!!! ;-)

Sand Hills Lighthouse is a lot more than what meets the eyes. The inn owners Bill and Mary are warm and sincere, they really go out of their way to make your stay memorable. Your eyes will be delighted by the scenary, your taste buds will marvel at Mary's tasty desserts and homemade breakfast, your ears will appreciate the waves crashing against the rocks, and your nose will enjoy the fresh lake air. Make time to talk to Bill and Mary, their stories are not to be missed.

This place is amazing, largely in part to the warmth and kind hearted owners, Bill & Mary. Piano playing, antiques, artwork and delicious food will have leave you wondering why you didn't stay here sooner. The grounds and view are like nothing I have experienced - A M A Z I N G!!!! Truly a superb vacation
