Our room at the Black Pearl was nice and we enjoyed our stay. It was clean and quaint with a well stocked kitchen. It was close to the activities we wanted to do - The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum and Tahquamenon Falls. There was also a great restaurant just down the street. We had some issues getting to the right channel to watch our favorite football, but the owner was very responsive to our questions.

We truly enjoyed our time at the Black Pearl. The space is comfortable & stylish. The extra touches were lovely (even the scents of the hand soaps & reed diffuser were to our taste!) & we felt right at home. It’s well equipped overall. Highly recommend!

Perfect locale and set up for our short stay. Place was clean with a comfortable bed and cute decor. Very minor area for improvement is communication on check in and check out, there was no information provided through VRBO, once I reached out stating I hadn’t received this info a couple hours prior to check in Jay was quick to reply and text the info. In an area with poor cell phone service getting this info sooner would have been helpful.

We headed up to Paradise because it was close to Tahquamenon falls, an hour from Munising for kayaking Pictured Rocks, then meeting up with 1124 other mini coopers for Mini's on the Mack. Lots of fun!

Great Stay

Great place and location. Fuel and food right down the road. We stayed to snowmobile, having trail right across the street was perfect. Very clean as everything is newly done with a cool modern feel. Nice amenities including a large ice maker which I thought was a useful addition. Communication with host was great, easy check in and out. Would recommend to others and will stay again myself! Perfect spot for all seasons!
