Relaxing place to stay for us and our dogs after all our waterfall adventures. Cooked all our breakfast meals, prepared our lunches for the day and grilled our dinners. Last night we observed the lunar eclipse.

A beautifully maintained and spotless cottage in a perfect Ironwood location. The home feels warm and welcoming, with thoughtful touches throughout. Just minutes from the Lake Superior shoreline, it’s ideal for rock hunting—exactly as the name promises. A peaceful and convenient base for exploring the area.

Donna was a great host - excellent communication and very friendly! The house has all of the necessities. It is small yet cozy, just as described. Good for 2 people. Great location if you want to be close to the lake! And only a 20-25 minute drive into town. Only downside (and maybe the listing stated this!) is that there is no laundry onsite, so pack accordingly. Will stay here again!

The only issue was the lack of service in the area which made it hard to communicate with the host at times. And the wifi was not as fast and efficient as I had hoped. When connected to it with my phone and searching things it was super slow or like I didn't have internet none of which is any fault of the host. She was lovely and so was the little cabin! The shower would be difficult for a larger person ( no offense just facts ) so be aware. Overall the experience was lovely and I wish I could've stayed longer. Would absolutely stay again!

Very cozy cabin in a great location! Had all the amenities we needed, and Donna was great about answering questions. Public beaches are very close - we spent part of a day hiking to the many waterfalls within driving distance also. Would highly recommend, and we will definitely be making a return trip!!

It was a very homey cabin, beautifully decorated. It was such a refresher to get away, relax, and enjoy some rockhounding. The only thing to be aware of is the cellular data can be quite spotty out there ( I use AT&T and had no connection ) however we anticipated that as we’ve visited little girls point last year. This is definitely the spot to stop and recharge or for the other rock enthusiasts out there!

Comfy cabin on lake

This was a very nice place to stay and very close to the lake attractions. We wished the lawn could have been mowed for our stay as we had two little dogs. Also the tv is just some dvds if this wash explained better we could have brought our own no big deal as we were enjoying the area and scenery. We would stay here again

Thank you for your comments. It is difficult to coordinate lawn mowing when the weather is rainy and being called away out of town....also, for the health of the grass, we do only mow once every 2 weeks. Your suggestion to explain the set up for the television will be noted for future guests. Thank you again, for your comments.
