Discover Lil' Casa Marquette!

Welcome to Lil' Casa – Your Cozy Marquette Getaway!
Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood just off the beaten path, Lil' Casa is an inviting, Southwest-style home in beautiful Marquette, Michigan. Whether you are here to launch your next outdoor adventure, visit your student at NMU, attend a vibrant community festival, or simply unwind and enjoy a peaceful night's sleep, Lil' Casa is the perfect basecamp.

The Perfect Location
Centrally located, you are just minutes away from everything Marquette has to offer. If you love exploring by foot or bike, you will love being steps from the Marquette Bike Path System, giving you easy access to the downtown district, the Lower Harbor, and the breathtaking Presque Isle nature area.

Minutes away from: Marquette Mountain, NMU, the hospital, local restaurants, and grocery stores.

Outdoor adventures: Biking, boating, hiking, and snow sports are right at your doorstep.

A scenic stroll: Walk up the road to the east toward the Fit-Strip for an awesome view of Hogsback Mountain, Sugarloaf Mountain, and Lake Superior in the distance. A short walk through the Fit-Strip and the beautiful adjacent cemetery—locally rumored to be designed by the same landscaping pioneers behind Central Park and the Biltmore Estate—leads you right into the heart of the city.

Your Private Outdoor Oasis
In the back of the house, you’ll find a fully fenced-in backyard and private deck. It’s the ultimate spot to enjoy your morning coffee or relax with a drink after a day of exploring. Depending on the season, you can pick a fresh peach from the tree, grab a handful of red raspberries from the abundant bushes, or harvest ripe grapes in October. The garden is beautifully alive with blooming irises, Lily of the Valley, lilac bushes, and grapevines.

Modern Comforts & Recent Updates
Lil’ Casa has been lovingly updated over the past two years to ensure a modern, comfortable stay.

Fresh Interiors: Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen with brand-new countertops, alongside beautiful new furniture in the living and dining rooms.

Bright & Cozy: Freshly installed windows and storm doors (Spring 2026) let in beautiful natural light, while a brand-new water boiler ensures the house stays perfectly warm and toasty during the winter months.

New Exterior: The exterior features brand-new siding, beautifully updated to protect against the classic U.P. weather while keeping the home insulated and cozy.

Property Highlights & Amenities:

Charming house a quick drive away from downtown

The house was amazing and an easy access point to a bike trail (3 houses away), the downtown area as well as the more known shopping (meijer, target, walmart). The neighborhood was fantastic as well. Would book again in the future.

Heart of the Bike Trails

We planned on doing bicycle riding in Marquette and this home had the perfect location. The home was just a block from the City Trail that connects with the Iron Ore Heritage Trail. We had a wonderful stay! All the accommodations fit our needs. It was clean and welcoming. There is parking in the driveway.

Great little house in a very convenient part of Marquette! The host was pleasant and organized from the start and the house and yard exceeded our expectations. It was so comfortable and well decorated without being fussy. The deck and yard were perfect for hanging out and Bethney was very welcoming to my small dog. Very walkable to downtown, NMU as well as many bike trails. I can’t wait to return!
