Wonderful place to stay!!

This rental is awesome!! So much room to spread out, and the furniture is so comfortable. The bedrooms all have a king extra-comfy bed AND enough dressers that you can unpack and not have to live out of our suitcases. This place is also extremely clean!! Since we rented in the fall, the colors were beautiful! Location... just walk down the driveway and you are at Lake Superior! Also... for those casino lovers... just 5 miles away from the casino!! Don't hesitate to rent, and we will be back!!

Wonderful stay

The property is a great place to spend time with the family. The house is extremely clean and it has everything one would need to be able to relax. The check in process was a breeze and the property is located in a great spot between Au Train and Harvey. We were able to drive to Munising and Marquette in no time at all. The beach on Lake Superior is directly across the road, and is a short stroll from the front porch. In our party, we had a 70 year old and 80 year old adult and they were able to access the beach and enjoy Lake Superior with out a problem. Great communication from the owner and I would certainly recommend this property.

Summer Getaway

We had a great quick getaway. The kids loved kayaking in the river and the fires on the beach. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us. If we return we will definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Paul & Annie Bishop

Paul & Annie Bishop married 34yrs 5 children 8 grandchildren. Spent our summer vacations in the UP growing up together.

Why they chose this property

Located in the Red Pine forest on the bank of the Sand River. Surrounded by trees and set back from the road to offer a peaceful setting. The private sandy beach directly across our drive is several miles long and great for walks along the water, campfires, swimming and more. The Sand River is calm and surrounded by nature great for kayaking.

We are close to either Marquette or Munising which both offer many activities and shopping experiences.

Lakenenland Sculpture Park is a 1 1/2 miles toward Marquette (West) and a wonderful place to stop and visit.
