All around fantastic property! Plenty to do for our group that ranged from 10 to 85! Sunsets, stars, fire pit, huge deck, pool table, foosball, shuffleboard, Blackstone, hot tub, kayaks, splash pad, dock, not sure what more we could have wanted. The surrounding area is full of waterfalls, local establishments, trails and more. We will 100% be back!!!

Family "Get Away"
The house was perfect for a large group of 14. Family enjoyed all the amenities. Having the Tesla charger was a plus. The game room was fun for all ages. This house has the best bathrooms and bedrooms. Kitchen, eating area and family room were excellent. A gift bag was even waiting for us upon arrival. Of course the UP speaks for its self.

Fantastic family friendly getaway
If you are interested in visiting the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, the location of Teresa and Ryan's house in Skanee is a perfect home base to experience everything that the UP has to offer. The amenities in the house are exceptional! Lots of space for the adults and even a private loft for the kids! The kitchen provided plenty of space for us to cook for a group of 12. The lake is breathtaking and the hosts provided the use of all of their lake toys (kayaks, paddle boards and floating lily pad) for the enjoyment of both adults and kids. The hot tub and sauna are bonuses. The hosts even provided firewood for a fire in the backyard and we enjoyed smores and the amazing starry night. On a clear night you can see so many shooting stars! The UP is remote and you'll end up driving a lot to get to different locations- close to the house (~30 minutes) was Quartzite falls and Canyon falls- both family friendly hikes. A kayak tour of Pictured Rocks is well worth the 2 hour drive to Munising and a stop of the way back in Marquette for dinner. Houghton was a lovely afternoon of shopping along the main street that has a ton of little mom and pop shops. All of the driving was well worth it as you will be rewarded with some beautiful scenery and great experiences. Thank you Teresa and Ryan for being such amazing hosts and for opening your home to our group.

5 Stars is not Enough!
I honestly do not know where to start with this review because it was just purely a magical place to have a family vacation. Our family of 13 stayed here just this past week. We were ages from 9-68 and we all loved this place. There is AMPLE room for large parties. Everything you could ask for is available from the kitchen, to the bedroom fans and extra blankets, activities, dock, bluetooth speakers, towels, and the list goes on an on. The beds are comfy, the sheets are quality and cozy. We spent a majority of the time downstairs and outside because it was perfect weather. Communication was great and the home was better than we anticipated! I will tell you that fishing from the dock this time of year was not good... we had a boat too and we caught one fish all week on the last night. It was a small bass and you would have thought that we had just caught a 10 foot shark we were so excited. L'Anse is a great little town with everything you need! I am glad that we bought most of groceries before we got to L'Anse though because the grocery prices are high there. We LOVE LOVE LOVED the Black Slate and Quartz Falls. We went over the Houghton for some shopping and dinner - it is a beautiful town! We also made our way over to the far side of the Keweenaw Bay for some rock hunting! We went to Breakers Beach, Calumet Park and McClain State park and all of those beaches were outstanding! This house and this vacation is worth every single penny! You will not be disappointed! Thank you

Beautiful Lake House
We had a wonderful time with our extended family of 14 in the house. There were a lot of water activities provided from a floating dock to paddle board/kayaks. The bay itself was clean and beautiful, we enjoyed our time in the water and hot tub. The house itself was clean and comfortable. The kids enjoyed the games in the basement. The kitchen was ample and the grilling options were great for dining. An extra that was appreciated were were some travel-sized bathroom items (i.e. toothbrushes, soap, lotion). It is also good to note that the communication with the host was easy and they were very responsive.
One thing that would have been nice if the welcome email with instructions were sent a few days earlier so we could have asked questions ahead of time and packed a couple additional items as needed. We also did not realize there was no A/C, but it is manageable with fans and the cooler nights.

Gorgeous Home in a Stunning Location!
We brought a large family with kids ages 14 through 23 and my parents (in their 80s), and everybody had a wonderful time. We spent our days enjoying the amazing view from the living room and deck and enjoyed the hot tub on several evenings. There was plenty of room for everybody, and it was awesome to have a space for the kids to hang out and sleep in. The game room downstairs was also a huge hit with everybody. Thank you for allowing us to rent your beautiful home, we would absolutely come here again!
