Executive Mining House Near MTU
The whole group will enjoy easy access to everything from downtown Houghton, to the MTU campus, to Lake Superior in this large, centrally located former Executive Mining house.
The house was destined to be a vacation home with its wide hallways and generously sized bedrooms. Beautifully furnished for 10 people.
1 minute from the heart of Michigan Tech University, 5 minutes from historic downtown, and 10 minutes to the groomed snowmobile trail. Large parking area for 5 cars and a trailer.
With a large entryway, the first floor boasts a wraparound kitchen, washer/dryer, 3/4 bathroom, 1 large bedroom, and a combination living / dining area.
Is the plan to be with friends and family? Wonderful! This turn-of-the-century gem as plenty of room for everyone to hang out together, play games, or watch some Roku TV.
Taking the oak staircase to the second floor reveals the remaining 4 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The hallways are wide and the crafted wood trim is beautiful throughout. A ramp leading to the wrap-around porch is perfect for those of use looking to avoid steps.
There is a front yard (not fenced) that your dog can use as needed. Naturally, please clean up after use. Thanks!
Gain access using a keypad. The key code will be sent to you prior to your arrival.
Looking to connect and maybe get some work done? We've got you blanketed with fast internet connectivity.
Only a short strut to MTU, active downtown treasures, and the famed Upper Peninsula waters, you have easy access to everything.
Pearl Street Mall is next door where you can find excellent Mexican (Rodeo's), Chinese (JJ's Wok and Grill), or Domino's Pizza. Jim's Foodmart is also located next to the mall with all the fixings to make your own special dinners.
There is a generously sized parking lot with plenty of parking for 5 cars.

We are very pleased with our multi-night stay at Executive Mining House. We gathered 9 family members for 2 milestone birthday celebrations in Houghton! The property was in a prime location! It was clean, well-furnished and huge! We loved staying here.

Great house for large groups
We had a wonderful stay at the Executive Mining House. Five spacious bedrooms including 3 extra large and sunny rooms, charming interiors, well equipped kitchen and an amazing location. I walked to coffee shops each morning and enjoyed a lovely view of the canal upon waking. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
