The house was in a perfect location. Just minutes from town but tucked away where you felt you didn’t have neighbors. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed including plenty of space for all of us. Fire pit was enjoyable and the sauna is a great bonus!

A beautiful home with a well-stocked kitchen and more than enough space for our group of 4 adults. It was clean and quiet - and the hosts were very responsive. We enjoyed watching the wildlife in the backyard, enjoyed a bonfire, and were in a nice proximity to Houghton and Hancock.

We had plenty of space for our families to stay to attend a wedding. Close to downtown but not in it, this location allowed us to explore Houghton and the Keweenaw Peninsula and come back "home" to relax. Family members especially enjoyed watching the deer who frequented the backyard.

Great Time!

Amazing stay in Dodgeville. Beautiful house, with all the amenities. Quiet stay, safe neighborhood, with plenty of parking. All 5 adults could shower and never ran out of hot water. WiFi worked flawlessly as some of us had to work from vacation. Beds were comfy and house was really clean. We only wish we had more time to enjoy their beautiful quiet getaway.

Freshman move in weekend

Shared house with another family from our area. Plenty of room for both our families. Living room and kitchen were plenty big enough for us all to spend time together. Beautiful fire pit outside. Parking was easy. This place made us feel at home on a weekend with high emotions. It was also close to campus and quiet.

Wonderful home close to MTU!

This was a perfect “home base” for moving our student into the Elements apartments. The location was perfect, the home was clean and comfortable, and the owners had everything set up for us. Would absolutely stay here again!
