Beautiful waterfront retreat with kayaks and bikes

You will love this perfect waterfront retreat on the Chocolay River with Lake Superior access. This custom built house is designed to take advantage of the great outdoors. From the cozy covered front porch to the spacious backyard, this home offers a relaxing, private oasis overlooking 100' of river frontage with beautiful views, a 530 sq ft. raised wood deck, a hot tub and even a pirate ship playhouse designed for hours of fun for the littles. In the winter, you can access Marquette’s vast snowmobile trails right from the driveway!

For the biking enthusiast, the Heritage bike trail is right around the corner. From here you can bike less than four miles to downtown Marquette for a meal or a beer at one of Marquette's many craft breweries. You can bring your own bike or use one of the cruisers that we provide.

You can also fish from the shores for Pike or head out on the river in the kayaks provided where anglers report catches of Coho salmon and Lake trout. There are many bird species to be observed in the area including nesting bald eagles that fish the lake, migratory birds and an occasional Great horned owl. The land across the river is part of the Chocolay Bayou Nature Preserve a sanctuary with hiking trails and prohibited development.

Upon entering this home from the covered front porch, you'll love the outstanding views of the river. The living room with its large windows, warm wood floors and fireplace will draw you in. The kitchen is spacious and welcoming with cherry cabinets, granite counter tops, heated floors, and a large island. The upper level master suite offers large windows overlooking the water, a walk in closet, full bath with tiled tub/shower enclosure and granite counter tops. There are two additional bedrooms upstairs with a spacious bathroom complete with tiled floor and shower. The downstairs bedroom can also be used as a play room or second living room.
The vacation home features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
