This was a pleasant place to stay. The hosts are hospitable and the view is excellent for watching the freighters! There are parts of the home that are being redone but it doesnt impact the home's comfortability or functionality. We enjoyed our stay here!

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.
