Ideal for families, couples or a group of friends, this four season retreat delivers the rustic charm of Upper Michigan, along with the decadent comforts of a luxury cottage.

In the evening, indulge in the beauty of “UP” sunsets from the cottage's wraparound 1000 sq ft deck or from the upper floor loft with floor-to-ceiling windows and forest views.

Walk across the road in the morning to catch a truly stunning sunrise over Lake Superior, while watching fishing boats head out for the day. There is no better place to enjoy your coffee!

Chefs will be pleased with the well-equipped, spacious kitchen, boasting a large island, induction stovetop, complimentary kitchen staples, coffee and tea, dining seating for up to 12, as well as a Weber gas grill, charcoal grill and Traeger smoker.

Summer Fun
First off, thanks to a host that has definitely gone the extra mile to ensure that every detail of making your trip memorable is covered. If your a family looking to hang at the beach and swim in arguably the best sand beach on Lake Superior than retreat back to this well appointed home this is the place. From the kitchen, deck, outdoor fire area, sauna and an endless supply of space to accommodate our entire family without feeling cramped this home has it all. Thanks for making great memories for our family.

Stunning location and cabin!
This is truly a special place. We celebrated our parents 50th wedding anniversary with kids and grandkids and couldn’t have picked a better place. The cabin itself was beautiful - clean, well-appointed and welcoming. But the location takes the cake with so many options for enjoying nature and days on the water just outside your door. Thanks to Kelly for being a great host and creating this slice of paradise. Amazing!

Last entire family trip
We had an amazing time at this property! I have been coming up to the Keweenaw for over 30 years now, either hunting ,fishing, snowmobiling or camping. I introduced my wife to the area when we first met and have been coming back ever since. We continued to make the trek right after our two sons where born and our appreciation for the area was passed down to them. This became even more apparent last week when my oldest son proposed to his girlfriend on Bete Grise beach. " she said yes " We have stayed at many other rental properties across the country and this by far was the best!! If you have read any of the many 5 star reviews I can not add anything to what has already been said. This is the cleanest, best stocked, with every attention to detail place ever. I may retire up here someday, if I had to build a place it would be just like this. Kelly did an exceptional job during the entire process including getting me some good tips on local fishing spots. We will with out a doubt be back!

Great family vacation at this beautiful property!
We loved our stay in this beautiful home! There were so many thoughtful touches in this rental. It was well stocked with spices and condiments, as well as coffee and tea. The coffee station in the loft was so nice to have as well. The beds were super comfortable too. Kelly did not overlook any amenity. Kayaking on the lagoon at sunset was absolutely beautiful.

Perfect place for us
This place was a gem. We were on a trip with family friends to mountain bike the area. The added bonus of the kayaks and canoes was awesome. The house was perfect when we arrived. Kelly also had all of the little touches and supplies that made the trip perfect. I would highly recommend and I know we will consider staying there again when we go to the area.

Beautiful home, attentive host, over the top amenities
Three couples found this to be one of the nicest vrbo's we have stayed in. Short walk to the beach. Canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards with paddles and life jackets for paddling into the channel going either to lake Superior or lac LaBelle. Kelly was a wonderful and attentive host. Her place was supplied with everything one would need. Impeccably clean.

Bete Grise Couples Trip
We had an amazing time at this property. It was a unanimous comment amongst our group that this home was the cleanest and most well-stocked place we have ever stayed at. We enjoyed grilling together, playing games in the four seasons room and telling stories by the fire. 10/10 would recommend any friend or family group book their vacation to the upper peninsula here.

A unique & wonderfull experience!
We are a group of senior citizens and have stayed at many VRBO's and this one has been the best so far. The location is great especially if you like being near water related activities. The house had every amenity you could think of and more. For example after staying in homes where the cookware was just cheap and worn out we were very happy to be able to use top label non-stick pans that really worked. The owner was very responsive to all our needs and questions.

Absolutely the best!
Kelly's house at Bete Gris has absolutely the best accommodations out of all places we have stayed at across the country. It is in a beautiful secluded location that allows for true rest and relaxation. At the same time there are many things to do at the lake and surrounding historical areas. We had fun fishing off the dock and at Lake Superior with Hooked Up Charters. Visited lighthouses, shoreline, and copper mines. Didn't do as much swimming because of overcast conditions as originally planned, but still had fun at Bete Gris beach. There are many more things that can be said about the fantastic area, however, I would like to highlight the property in this review. While we were very happy with nearly all properties we've rented on VRBO in the past, the level of thought put into organizing this house is next to none. The house is beautiful and spotless clean, the internal design and decorations are outstanding and capture the Keweenaw essence, it has everything stocked, the quality and quantity of appliances and utensils is outstanding, and everything is placed exactly where it should go for convenient use. The sauna is fantastic, and outdoor areas are spacious and well arranged. Finally, Kelly is an amazing host - she was very responsive to all my questions and had great local suggestions. This is really a gem!

Summer Vacation on the Keweenaw Peninsula
AWESOME! The house worked out great for our family of 9. The host did an amazing job of furnishing the house with all of the necessities (and more). We were able to keep our boat right at the house on the majestic lagoon of Lac La Bell. The house is located in a beautiful spot where we could mountain bike, boat, fish, swim and explore the whole Keweenaw Peninsula. From watching the sunrise on the beach, to seeing the sun set from the lake Superior, we packed each day into an adventure of fun memories. We can't wait to return to this wonderful house. (PS. Bring plenty of mosquito repellent.)

UP adventure
Our first trip to the UP was a blast. Kelly was an awesome host. The home is well stocked for things we didn’t bring but needed like Benadryl cream for bug bites. Great location, clean and comfortable and if you know me - I’m picky about where I stay. We hit the atv trails, fished and enjoyed the beach. We are already planning a trip back.

Amazing location, beautiful, well cared for, spotless, cozy more than comfortable home. Kitchen is extraordinarily well stocked, with all the extras you might need. Kayaking was pure bliss, beds, extremely comfortable. Wildlife galore. Hands down, Best VRBO we’ve stayed in. Kelly easy to communicate with, very thoughtful welcome touches and unexpected delicious treats. If you come in bug season, bug head nets make any outside activity much more enjoyable. Thank you Kelly for the mountains of smiles and memories. A great place to stay, rain or shine!

This property was perfect for our family getaway. We stayed three nights and the experience could not have been better! The property was gorgeous and the accommodations were very well-maintained. The owner did a great job of making sure that all the essentials, as well as the small things were taken care of and provided for. I would highly recommend to stay if you are looking for a quiet secluded getaway with mini activities to do for both kids and adults alike! We will definitely be back!
