See our website for more information and links to all sorts of sites and activities nearby:
Www.lakesuperiorrental.com. You won’t be disappointed.

Nestled on the southern shore of Lake Superior, Jarven Hytti is a luxury experience at an affordable price. The private setting provides beautiful views of the lake and its pink-sand agate beach. Not your typical north woods cabin, the architect-inspired Finnish style beach house is spectacular. It comfortably sleeps 8 persons. And, the two modern ,tidy bathrooms comfortably accommodate its guests. A modern, fully-equipped kitchen , a large family room with a stone fireplace, comfortable bedrooms and fireplace on the deck all add to the cozy , functional, vacation home. Luxury linens and native dwarf lake irises round out a truly wonderful getaway setting. Off the beaten track, near the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness/ , Jarven Hytti is the perfect base camp for your upper peninsula / Lake Superior adventure. Spring and summer . Get cozy in front of the fire.

SUSTAINABILITY, THE WETLAND AND THE SHORE
JärvenHytti was designed with the input and approval of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and the Army Corps of Engineers. Every effort has been made to protect the adjacent wetland ( with its natural flora and fauna ) and the shoreline.

DOGS WELCOME. BUT, PLEASE REMEMBER THE DOG FEE. IT REALLY DOES REQUIRE MORE CLEANING TO MAKE JÄRVEN HYTTI SPIC ‘N SPAN FOR THE NEXT GUESTS.

Occasionally renters ask “why an additional nightly charge for each guest over the first two?” We are sure you understand , as with any household, additional residents add to the costs of operation. Scavenger services( charged by-the-bag), septic service( more pumping) ,laundry (sheets and towels) , utilities ( water, electricity) , cleaning services, general wear-and-tear and other overheads increase with the number of occupants. While most rentals are to groups of two, it would be unfair to price the basic nightly rate to prorate the additional costs associated with larger-group stays. Thank you for understanding.

The house and location were so serene and beautiful. It was exactly what we needed. We were able to get away, explore the UP, and enjoy campfires along the beach every night. We left rejuvenated and refreshed.

The pictures speak for themselves. Communication with the owners was great, they even let us know when the best chances to see the Northern Lights were. The cabin was clean, cozy and very comfortable. The outdoor space however stole the show, the sunsets on the shore of Lake Superior every night were incredible. 10/10 would stay here again.

We had a wonderful week here with our family (two adults, two kids under 5, and our dog). The biggest highlight was the location — it truly felt like having our own private beach. We spent hours swimming and hunting for treasures. One of the best parts was being able to bring our dog. Pet-friendly waterfront rentals aren't always easy to find, and it made the trip that much more enjoyable. We'd happily stay here again!A couple of things to note: the listing photos are definitely the property's "glamour shots." The home has picked up some normal cosmetic wear and tear since those were taken, but nothing that impacted our stay. And for families with little ones, there's no bathtub, and there aren't beach toys or other kid-specific extras, so you might want to pack them if you have space.

Amazing, beautiful stay. Was so close to everything we wanted to do at Porcupine and the scenery coming off the beach patio was the cherry on top. After busy days, to be able to come back, relax, kick up the fire place with comfort and all the things we needed. Thank you so much and we would absolutely come back if ever in the area again!
