Our stay was fantastic! Beautiful home, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, having access to the attached garage was a huge bonus since there was a decent amount of snow, freezing rain and ice throughout our stay. Looking forward to our stay here in the fall!

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.

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!

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.
