About this property

Gateway to Outdoor Adventure in the Keweenaw! - Dog Friendly & MTU 2.3 miles!

The Miner is beautifully remodeled, and centrally located in historic Hancock MI. The the famed Jack Stevens snowmobile trail #17 is located directly across the street, offering easy access to hundreds of miles of groomed trails taking you across Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

We provide easy access to Houghton (1.6 miles), Michigan Tech (2.3 miles), Finlandia University (.3 miles), and historic Calumet is only 13.8 miles away.

Please note that we are located along Lincoln St (US41) and the snowmobile trail. I would hate to lose your business because of it, but I would rather make sure you are happy with your stay. If you are a very light sleeper, other accommodations might be better suited for your needs. If want to be in the middle of everything, I have no doubt that you will love it!

A portion of all bookings goes to support local youth ice hockey programs.

Winter Trip
Great little place to stay that comes with everything you could imagine. The accommodation was super clean and cozy. Superb location in Hancock and not too far from MTU. Theres a great restaurant across the street and you get a great view of the snowmobile trails!

Great Holiday Stay
We stayed with our family, including a baby over Christmas. The place was just as expected. It was clean, had a nice pack and play and was spacious. We really enjoyed our stay and the home had everything we needed and expected. It was an easy and comfortable stay:)

Fantastic in town landing pad for attending weekend events at MTU
Wonderful property that is well stocked with many amenities. Check in was a breeze. The place was immaculately clean! Great open living and kitchen area. Would be great for couples or a family. No problems at all during the stay. Host was just a phone call away to help with anything needed.

Visiting our daughter, who is in her first year at Michigan Tech
Property is close to everything and was convenient If I had one recommendation, it would be to include additional seating for a lounging.

Central location and pet friendly
Clean unit that is nicely equipped and centrally located. As mentioned in listing the front bedroom is very noisy from traffic. Ear plug’s recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Frederick Jaehnig

Host profile image
Maria and I each served in the Air & Space Forces for over 20 years and we started Copper County Vacation Rentals with the main goal of providing our guests with clean, comfortable and relaxing adventures. As we return to the Keweenaw full-time we will continue to provide amazing lodging, but we will also look to enhance our experience packages.

Due to our military background we believe in 100% transparency and renting a home from a stranger can be intimidating. We are absolutely certain you will love staying with us and we encourage you to check out our numerous reviews online to make sure that is the case!

Why they chose this property

This Miner is tastefully decorated to pay tribute to the area's rich mining culture. The large parking area, and proximity to the famed Jack Steven Trail (across the street!) make it a great location for snowmobiling, offroading and accessing nature.

What makes this property unique

*Accidental Damage Protection - We know accidents happen and all bookings include a complimentary $3000 damage protection policy to cover the property and to help provide you peace of mind throughout your stay.
