We stayed for 5 days. The house was well stocked, plenty of room for the 5 of us. Owners were very easly accessible. The house was clean and cooled down for us in this July heat. Close to the trail and close to Houghton. I highly recommend this house for your stay. Neighborhood was quite and parking was great for 2 trucks and trailers plus our 2 sxs. Will stay again when we can. Thank you to the host.

This was a nice comfortable stay for a late season snowmobile trip. Five bedrooms are perfect for a group of individuals like we had. We enjoyed the nice big TV and comfortable seating in the living room. Trail access is just a few blocks away. Communication was excellent!

We stayed here for our daughter's graduation from Michigan Tech. Tanya and Nate were awesome to communicate with and readily available when we had some minor issues. I would recommend this cozy cottage for any event with a small or large group. Very clean and well kept! Easily located and plenty of parking. Pleanty of towels and a fully stocked kitchen. We loved the fact that there were air mattresses available in the master closet for a couple unexpected guest that joined us. When you are looking for a great place to stay, please give them an opportunity to host your group.

Good place for some guys on a snowmobile trip, and we had lots of snow so good sledding. Nice big TV for watching football and whatever. Only ideas for improvement would be to include a picture of exterior of house for reference, and parking with trailers was tough because it snowed so much.

Great stay

The property was as described and we really enjoyed being there! Had everything we needed to make meals, close to MTU/Houghton. The owners were very responsive and I really appreciated being able to bring our dogs so my son could visit with them while he stayed with us. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks!!

This home was very cozy and homey. It was inviting and very spacious. It was perfect for home cooked meals and lots of family time! This home was spaced perfectly between all the busy towns for sight seeing around copper harbor and agate beach. Also a quick trip to the keweenaw bay.

Great Base Camp.

We visited the U.P. for a reunion with old friends. This was a last minute booking, over the 4th of July week......with a dog. The house was extremely roomy, and had all of the essentials. The location provided a easy drive into Hancock / Houghton, as well as other attractions in the area. We would definitely stay again!

Great Snowmobile Trip

We booked here for our annual snowmobile trip to the area and it was great! The owners were very communicative. The drive was plowed for us to fit trucks and trailers. The house was clean and well-kept. We're definitely saving this one for future trips!
