More than we expected

The rooms and living areas were larger than we expected. The convenience of downtown made driving unnecessary. The inside was spotless and the view from the windows made it comfortable and relaxing.

Great stay!

Large house with enough space for our group of 11. Ranging from age 4 to 60. Everything was clean upon arrival and the directions for the house were easy to understand. We loved cooking in the kitchen and eating our meals together at the big table. Close to lots of other destinations. Only complaint would be the grill is a bit rusty so we were not comfortable using it. The host was easy to get ahold of. Would stay again if I came to the area again.

Waterfalls, lighthouses, and Pictured Rocks.

A nicely appointed home, in a great location, convenient for exploring all the beauty the area has to offer. We visited all the local shops in Munising, saw many waterfalls, lighthouses, and the Pictured Rocks, visited Marquette, Tahqhamenon Falls, and picked up rocks at Christmas and Grand Marais beaches. A great time, snd hope to visit again in the future.

We stayed at Doc's house during the Christmas holidays to be close to family and friends. It worked out great. Plenty of space with the open kitchen/dining room and adjacent living room. The 4 upstairs bedrooms are roomy with closets. Full baths on both levels. Clean, comfortable, in-town location. Would stay again. Highly recommend.

Annual Family Trip

This was our 4th summer trip up to Munising. We love the area and exploring. This summer we stayed in Doc’s place and had an amazing experience. Plenty of space, well stocked bathrooms and kitchen. We had two children with us and they had space to play. We loved DQ across the street and visited every evening!

Great place

My family of 6 had a great time in this beautiful home in Munising. It is very roomy, with a huge table for dinner and games and plenty of seating in the living room/sun room. It is walking distance to the Pictured Rock boat tours and downtown Munising. It's very close to trails and waterfalls. We enjoyed 2 fires in the firepit and made lots of great memories. I highly recommend this home.

Perfect Location

We booked Doc's Place for a Car Club weekend. The location was perfect. Walking distance to food, beverage, tour boat dock and stores. The host was attentive and sent a text after we arrived to make sure we were all doing good. Parking for our four classic cars was great. The best part was the house. Clean. Well stocked kitchen utensils. Bathrooms were clean and we had plenty of towels and wash clothes for 8 adults. Very comfortable. The only complaint was the Dairy Queen across the street was closed for the season. We all recommend this property'

Owner constantly text, email and treats you like a child

The property is a great property great location everything was clean. The only thing that they didn’t have was enough pots and pans The owner did send two skillets over on one of her million texts. One of the most negative part was the owner consistently text, and emailed you. my opinion treat you like a child I was looking for a vacation where I wouldn’t be constantly on my phone responding to people and because the owner wouldn’t stop texting felt like that’s what just happened. Also the house sleeps 12 but there’s a different fee to have more than 8 in the house.

Lisa was so incredible! We booked the property last minute and have zero regrets. It's a beautiful property right next to Pictured Rocks kayaking! I wish the bedrooms had mirrors (it was too many of us for me to do my makeup in the bathroom), but the beds were comfy and everything was adorable.
