Taylor and Lily were welcoming and the accommodations were comfortable and convenient to downtown and MTU. The garage was greatly appreciated and the view of Houghton at night was beautiful! We'd definitely stay again.
Great location. Garage was very nice for the winter season to be able to pull in and not have to scrape off all snow. Be aware that is on the small side and would be tight for a truck or large SUV. Inside was clean and had everything we needed.
We loved the garage parking with garage door opener. There was extra space in the garage for skiis, ice fishing gear, etc. The interior was just what you needed.
This is the second time we stayed at this place and probably will not be the last. The location is fantastic! The house is Spacious and the owners were very attentive to our needs. I highly recommend this property.
Everything we needed was there and the location was perfect for our visit to MTU. We look forward to going back!

It was clean, convenient location to dowtown, with a stunning view of the lift bridge, portage canal and Mont Ripley. I would highly recommend this VRBO to others and future stays. Taylor was informative and easy to communicate with. Only suggestion would be to have mirrors in the bedrooms.
Perfect place to stay visiting MTU. The townhouse was clean, well stocked, and convenient location. Owners were very responsive to questions. Hope to stay again!
This property was outstanding! Walking distance to downtown Houghton, clean, quiet and the garage parking during a snow storm was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be coming back.
We were in town for a wedding and this townhouse was great for our needs. Everything was clean and the hosts were very responsive to questions in advance.
It was clean, plenty of towels, well stocked with dishes. Excellent view! Great communication with owners. We will stay here again, what a wonderful place!
This was the perfect spot for our family during our Easter weekend in Houghton visiting loved ones at Michigan Technology University. The property was spotless, perfectly prepared for our arrival, and was in a great location. We highly recommend this property and would definitely stay there again!
