Winter getaway

We came looking for snow and found it. This house was very clean and cozy. The location was close to Swede town and we were able to day trip to Copper Harber and Mount Bohemia spa.

Calumet Home

The house was cute and very clean. It’s right outside the downtown area and an easy drive from Houghton. Lots of beautiful places to hike and explore. We traveled with a 2 year old and 6 month old. There was plenty of room for a pack n play in the larger bedroom and nothing for the kids to get into that they shouldn’t.

Calumet winter carnival 25

Put together cute , older house that would benefit from a couple storm doors. Wind blowing so much around them we had to crank the heat to make main floors tolerable, which made upstairs bedrooms almost too hot to sleep. Granted it was 10-15 degrees outside. FewOther niceties in kitchen would be some foil and ziplock bags for leftovers. No outside address numbers on house, drove around block 3 times to verify we had right place.

Great home in Calumet area

The house is lovely and very clean and new. It is a great location, within walking distance of historic downtown Calumet as well as a grocery store. We had 5 of us staying here with plenty of space. The house has outdoor space with 2 chairs on a cement patio, and plenty of space to park. It is right on the main road into Houghton/Hancock, as well as M26 to Lake Linden, with easy access to all points north on the Keweenaw and within 15-20 min. of Lake Superior beaches. The area is an old mining town so housing in this area reflects its age, but this home has been lovingly renovated. Communication with the host was responded to quickly. We would stay in this home again if in the area!

Was a wonderful place to stay!!! We were up for a wedding and the location was perfect! We were able to sneak in some rock hunting and then come back to relax with a home cooked meal before sleeping for the events of the next day! Beds and entire home was very nice and peaceful. Felt right home! Thanks Alexa!

We loved our stay in Calumet. The property was highly maintained and perfect as a "base camp" for exploring the Keweenaw Peninsula. Alexa was easy to reach and very helpful. We would definitely reserve this house again the next time we are in the UP.

Copper country memory tour

We came to visit the copper country with my mom who grew up in Calumet. We did a lot of site seeing and remembering the past. Also went to the Norwegian Lutheran Historical Societies’ open house.This house was a perfect home base for us. There was plenty of room to hang out.

Bright & Clean

The house was super bright & full of sunshine. Everything was new and very clean. We loved that there is a separate room with a TV so others can talk and be comfortable in the living room. The neighborhood was quiet and the community was friendly. We loved our stay and would definitely return!

Wonderful Christmas stay!

My family stayed here over Christmas so that we could spend the holiday with our son who is stationed nearby with the Coast Guard. It was a perfect home base for the 4 of us. The house is very comfortable and cozy and the host was so kind to provide us with a Christmas tree and decorations . She also left us some delicious local fudge and a nice coffee bar. Both were a very nice unexpected treat.The size was perfect for the four of us, washer/dryer were handy, smart TV made streaming a breeze. Bedrooms were basic but comfortable. The house is on a busy corner. Pulling in and out of the driveway is absolutely no problem. The only reason I mention this is because you do hear traffic at night. We cooked a lot during our stay. While the kitchen supplies were basic, we managed just fine. I do feel that scratched teflon should be replaced, though. Overall, we had a perfect holiday here and hope to see back… when it’s warmer !

Very Clean, Great Location

The unit was immaculate. It is not cluttered, which we like. Everything worked well. The unit is located in Laurium, but just a mile or so from downtown Calument, which has some great shopping and restaurants. Would stay here again.

Convenient location

Overall the property provided us what we needed, a place to relax and sleep after exploring areas in the Keweenaw Peninsula. It was quite warm while we were there, so the downstairs area got a little stuffy without central air, but it wasn’t too bad.
