Great place to stay for access to the park. Fireplace was a bonus though we only used it once because it was warm out. Nice relaxing stay for a couple of tired hikers. Cabin was very well stocked with everything you'll need. Super clean. Very happy!

Peaceful Stay
Close to the Porcupine Mountain State Park and Lake Superior. It was a comfortable home base for exploring the area. Quiet at night, even with the windows open. There were lots of helpful amenities available in the kitchen and bath area.

Convenient for families
Our stay was fine. Despite the heat and humidity, we were comfortable. Our only disappointment was the lack of ATV trails, although we did attempt, they were not maintained. Maybe it is better for snowmobilers.

Cute little home in quiet neighborhood close to porcupine mountains
Everything was as expected and as described in the listing. Easy to find. Clean. The owners were easily reachable and very responsive to my question. The kitchen was well stocked, beds comfy, lots of games available to play. I was happy with my stay.

Five star five star five star! This home is what you expect on the outside for the area but absolutely perfect inside. WiFi worked great and appreciate the fully stocked home. Games movies and decorations are icing on the cake. Absolutely would return. Perfect spot for exploring porcupine mts and surrounding areas and parks. Big enough for the five of us and more. Washer and dryer were the cherry on top!

Brief stay
This property was very clean. Temps during our stay were in the mid to upper 80’s. Unusually warm for the Upper Peninsula. Although this property did not have air conditioning there were fans to use. Overall we had a very pleasant experience.

Best UP trip
This Home is exactly how described it comfortably fit me and my husband, my father and my stepmom. We had quick access to many places around the area, porcupine mountains, several beaches, several inland lakes, and streams to kayak and all the rock hunting my little heart desired. The cute little coffee bar in the kitchen was a great little addition not to mention having a washer and dryer is awesome. The kitchen is really stocked with everything you need. What a great week and a beautiful place thank you for sharing your home with us.

Enjoyable stay
Property was clean with all the conveniences one would need for a comfortable vacation(to nitpick iron/ironing board would be a good addition to the amenities)
Had an enjoyable stay as a family of 4 and would highly recommend for families
A number to message for faster communication would be nice .
We had an amazing time. Home was perfect, owner/manager responded immediately when we had any questions. Everything was perfect

My wife and I were looking for a place to stay while we explored the Keweenaw peninsula and this house was perfect! It is close to a lot of amazing things to do and see and was very clean and well kept. We wish we would have spent more than three nights to be able to take in more of the U.P.!
