Great stay for our family and close to town to see the locks and dine. We had a peaceful night by the fire stargazing and watched the moonrise. The freighters were fun to watch as well!

Great location in the Soo. House is big enough for a small family like ours. Nice sandy beach area right on the river with colored rocks you'd expect in the UP.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Hering

Host profile image
We are a mother son team and have lived in the Sault area for many years. Traci is the mother of the team and lives right next door to the property. Ryan is the son of the team and lives a few miles down the road. We look forward to having you as guests and for you to enjoy the beautiful Sault Ste Marie.

Why they chose this property

We have lived in this area for many years and enjoy the wonderful neighbors and freighters passing closely by. We are just outside of the City of Sault Ste. Marie limits but still very close to town. We enjoy having fires by the river and kayaking.

What makes this property unique

This property is very unique as it has neighbors close by but it is a very private setting with a private beach.
