Blue Wave Inn & Sandbar Restaurant

We stayed here for the weekend. The room was excellent - spacious, clean and a great view (Flowing Waters room). The entire hotel is like a ship and very neat being right next to Lake Superior. Would definitely stay again.

Had a great 3 night stay at the Blue Wave Inn (Flowing Waters room). Weather was a bit iffy, but we still loved our stay. Windows open listening to the waves all night. The staff in the coffee shop was outstanding! Very friendly, very helpful with suggestions for places to visit. Gladly made a special order Latte for my wife. The room was impeccable. The deck is litterally right above the lake.

I have eaten lunch here twice, and both times were great. High quality ingredients, delicious food, and beautiful views (right on the lake). The perfect place to eat lunch and read a book. Friendly staff and nice facility. (I've never stayed in the hotel, but didn't want to give the rooms no stars.) Right next to the public beach.

I had a great stay at The Blue Wave Inn. Clean and comfortable. Made me feel like I was at home. The people working in the cafe and gift shop were super genuine and welcoming . It was a pleasure to stay . The cafe has really good food and coffee . Thanks

Just stopped for lunch of smoked fish salad with almonds, kalamata olives and cheese. So good! Very casual, order at the counter. Lots of beverage options. Beautiful view of the big lake. Friendly staff. Clean bathroom. Right on US Hwy 2.

Such a fun place with an amazing view!! I do wish they have some vegan options at the Sandbar, but that's only because I want to spend a lot of time here!

This place is awesome. Only 5 rooms and everyone is totally a different experience. The wheelchair accessibility was perfect for me. They even have a roll in shower with a 14ft rain head. Honestly amazing. The view, you couldn't ask for a better view. If you were any closer to the lake, you would have to be in it.

A super cool architectural gem right on the shores of Lake Superior. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The service was wonderful, and we enjoyed visiting the attached outfitter and coffee shop as well. Well worth a visit if you are in the area!

We only stayed one night but would be happy to return for a multiple night stay. Seamless check-in & check-out and a beautiful room at a beautiful location. Also had a great breakfast at the restaurant with service by friendly, capable staff. We would love to return.

Stopped in for coffee for the few days I was in town on business and the coffee, food, atmosphere and employees were all great! I did not stay in the hotel and only stopped in for breakfast.

Very unique inn with 5 rooms decorated as sailors quarters. Has a bar with snacks and small bites with signature drinks. We enjoyed our stay and will be back. Very affordable inn right on Lake Superior.

Perfect location with amazing views! Our room was very comfortable, the cafe/bar downstairs was adorable and the outdoors shop connected to the building was cute as well. We enjoyed our stay here and will be back!

Just got back from spending three nights at the Blue Wave Inn (Flowing Waters #3). The sunsets from our private balcony were amazing. If you are sitting inside the room, it feels like you are on a cruise ship. Location is close to everything. Cute unique place. Room was clean, well stocked, comfortable beds and quiet. Lots of windows facing the lake, so if you like to sleep in, I would suggest a sleeping mask, because the shades are not room darkening. We had breakfast sandwiches from the Sandbar and they also get a five star. Friendly, younger staff. I hope we are able to come back and try out one of the other rooms.

Amazing stay!! My husband and I even extended our stay to an extra night we loved it so much. We stayed in room #3 Flowing Waters. Our room had everything you could ask for and more. Very comfy bed as well. Will definitely be back!

The location of this INN is awesome. An amazing view of lake superior. The rooms are definitely a huge highlight. The showers are also amazing
The service is very odd, as in they have weird times when they're there. but they're on top of it as fast as they can be and responsive. Seems like it's ran by just 2 or 3 people but it feels like they pour there hearts towards the business.
Definitely will stay again if I find my self in this neck of the woods.

One of a kind location, rooms and experience. 10/10. Would recommend. Katie and Dave provide a seamless check in, amenities, and check out. A+++👍

Actually visited the Coffee shop and it was delicious....they also have a little bar, games and other merchandise. Beautiful view and just within walking distance of an fresh water bottle fill up!

Was driving home in a blizzard and had to stop for the night. John at the desk was so friendly and went above and beyond with helping me. The room is so cute and the whole hotel has a beachy, vacationing vibe and I love it!! Will definitely be coming back, hopefully under different circumstances!!

We spent 2 nights at the Blue Wave Inn in June 2022. It was great! The views were amazing. Loved having our own balcony. Peace, quiet, very private - never heard any other guests through the walls. It was exceptionally clean and well stocked. The sunsets were beautiful.

It was so quiet that when the AC shut off, it was "eerily quiet!" (pro-tip - always bring a sound machine on vacation!). The only very minor improvement would be to make the worlds-slowest & tiniest elevator faster, (LOL) -- But these are small things. Would 100% recommend.

We just stay one night in what I would say is a first class hotel. It's winter the wind chill was 15 below and we enjoyed every second we where there.Beautiful rooms and fantastic views with the warmth of a fireplace and the coziness of the decor it was a treat. I hope to return soon.
