What a fun and comfortable spot. Our adult children joined us as our youngest graduated from Michigan Tech. The location was great, beds very comfortable and the unit was amazingly spacious. Thank you for the hospitality!
Clean, comfy, good icecream downstairs. We rode bikes and hiked in Copper Harbor during the day and relaxed and spent time as a family at night. They had a good selection of family games and puzzles for use. Would definitely stay here again.

Super cute
This is a super cute place with plenty of room for a family of 6. Loved the place and the ice cream downstairs. It was quite warm while we were there, could have used another fan or two. Would stay again.

We decided to book this location for a last-minute getaway during fall school break for a family of four. The beds were comfortable, the place was clean, and the Wi-Fi kept all of us online. I would have no problem working remotely from here using the Wi-Fi, but this was a short vacation, so remote work was not in my plans for this trip :-).
We loved the strategic location of this property, which made it easy to visit Houghton and the Michigan Tech campus, as well as the northernmost portion of the Keweenaw Peninsula. We also thought the little library of DVDs was a nice touch and watched one as a family after a busy day of touring around.
Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay, and I would come back if we were in the area again!

Nice clean place, no AC and stipulations regarding pets. Read the guidelines fully.
When we first arrived, I have to mention that the parking is off to the side because there is the ice cream shop downstairs so we couldn’t park directly out our room door. We were in the upstairs 2 nice BDRs, light and bright, I did not realize that even though it’s listed as pet friendly, we were not allowed to leave the Pet at the VRBO unattended even with a kennel. The owner of the property reached out and said the pet can’t be unattended so I did explain one of the situations for the coming day that we wouldn’t be able to take the dog because the people we are visiting are allergic? we did get permission from the homeowners to go ahead and leave our dog there during that time. However, we did decide to take two separate cars as opposed to leave the dog since it was my mistake not seeing the do not leave unattended. If you have mobility issues I do not recommend due to steep stairs. It was very hot with no AC. No amenities in the town but close to everything in the surrounding peninsula. I would recommend in cooler weather & to people who don’t mind stairs. The hosts are friendly & responsive. Community very friendly. Cute, clean, with Northwoods touches throughout. Also the bathroom was clean and nice. I really like the light and brightness of the home.
We are so happy with our stay here!!! Property was perfect! Everything we needed. Was clean and cozy! Loved all the windows and sun light!! The location was great as it did not feel far away from all the stops we made all the way up to Copper Harbor. We would definitely stay again!
The apartment was great! Super clean and cozy. Plenty of towels, all the dishes we could've needed, even had coffee ready for the coffee pot (so grateful for that)! It was pretty hot during our stay, but the fans provided were a lifesaver. The kids loved being right above the ice cream shop! Jane was really responsive and helpful. Thanks so much for an awesome stay, it made our adventure around the peninsula that much better!
Precious time with mom and dad. PERFECT accommodations for handicapped momma.
Nice for a close family. A large open room- no privacy. The bathroom is beautifully done for wheelchair access, however, the shower needs some grab bars as there are none. Wonderfully supplied with refrigerator full kitchen silverware and even spoces!
Third year coming up to the UP with our ski/board friend group (although this year was a bit of a bust for snow). We stay here every time, and love the boxcar! It’s a great home base for exploring the area. Thanks for the wonderful stay!
It was a great place for our family, clean, cozy, with all the amenities. The steps may be difficult for some. It in a great location to explore the peninsula
The house was clean and well stocked. The owner was very responsive and helpful.
My husband and I were traveling with his parents who are in their 70s. The stairs were a bit steep but we all managed fine. The beds were comfy and we all slept great.
We brought ATVs, but the trails (#3 in particular) were way too rough. It took us about 1.5hrs in a side by side to get to Bete Gris Bay and we may have losened some teeth on the way. We also took a shorter ride to Gratiot Park on dirt roads and that was enjoyable. The sunset was great there and so were the rocks.
The town is very sleepy, so you'll want to get groceries before you arrive. We did find great food at Galcia nearby and there were a few other restaurant options we didn't try. The ice cream below the apartment was delicious. We didn't have a chance to try the bison hot dogs, so I guess we'll have to go back :)
Overall, this was a great stay. I highly recommend.
This is the 3rd time we have stayed here, it’s always very clean and cozy. Plenty of space for a group of 4-6 people. The beds are very comfortable and always plenty of linens. The host is very accessible and helpful. This is one of our favorite places to stay in the Keewanau!
This is the second time we stayed here for a friends’ ski/snowboard trip, and it was just was wonderful as we remembered from last year! Jane was fantastic in accommodating us, and we are looking forward to staying here next year as well!
This was a great location, very convenient for visiting my son in Calumet, and for exploring the area. Gas station, store, and restaurant very close by, and ice cream store right downstairs. We would definitely stay there again.
