In every room, you'll find updates that provide modern comforts. You'll have access to a dedicated workspace, high-speed Wi-Fi (300 Mbps), plenty of outlets, and a large-screen TV equipped with streaming apps.
Experience the inviting comfort and timeless style of our newly furnished Mid-century modern home, meticulously crafted by the talented team at 1Chic Retreat.

Choose from a king bedroom, a queen bedroom, or a queen sleeper sofa, all equipped with new mattresses and premium linens. Enjoy peaceful sleep with wood blinds and blackout curtains. Walk-in closets come stocked with luggage racks, wall hooks, hangers, extra blankets, and quilts for your comfort.
✶ BATHROOMS ✶
Experience pure indulgence in our newly renovated spa bathroom. Enjoy the luxurious comfort of stepping onto the heated floor before unwinding in a deep tub filled with soothing bath salts. Or opt for a refreshing rain-head shower, with warm towels ready and waiting for you. We also have a half-bath located in the basement.

The east-facing porch is the perfect place to greet the new day with a cup of coffee to watch the sun rise.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Liimatta
Hi there! My name is Susan and I’m a fourth generation Yooper. My great-grandparents emigrated from Finland to the Keweenaw Peninsula in the 1890s. I’ve lived in many other places but the UP has always been home. I finally returned in 2018. My background in tourism and event planning led to my becoming a full-time vacation rental host with a desire to provide a 'home-base' to my guests since 2019. I love sharing my historic home with visitors to Marquette and the Upper Peninsula as a place for you to create your own UP memories. As a traveler, I have visited the exotic sea level Marshall Islands in the Pacific to Mt. Everest Base Camp One at 17,000 feet in Tibet. And, many many places in between. Hope to see you in the UP!
Why they chose this property
Our historic bungalow in South Marquette has been well-cared-for throughout the decades. It is a cozy two-bedroom with lots of light and natural charm. Outside spaces include two covered porches and an open-air backyard patio with a fire pit. The sunrise and lake and harbor views are spectacular year-round. We love the walkable city location with easy access to bike trails, breweries, restaurants, downtown shopping, and Marquette's many festivals and events.
What makes this property unique
The bungalow overlooks Lake Superior, the world's largest freshwater lake. It is located in South Marquette and is walkable to the downtown district and nearby city trails.
