Beautiful property, exactly as advertised. I did a lot of sightseeing while in the area but this is a property where you can get away and just relax for a few days without going anywhere. Quiet and safe.
Cozy family farmhouse, it reminded us of my grandpa’s cabin. We liked the spacious kitchen, the games and books available, and the framed historic memorabilia. We had a great stay and would recommend it to other families!
We had a wonderful time as a family here. The farmhouse was clean and cozy. There were also several amenities on the property that kept us active and busy during the entire stay - swimming, hiking, s'mores, kayaking, etc. This was a great place for our trip to the upper peninsula!
The house and property are wonderful, and very clean. It's so quiet there, such a refreshing change from living in the city. My husband and I spent our 2nd anniversary here and we absolutely loved it! I will say if it's going to be hot keep in mind there is no air conditioning, and the house can get pretty warm during the day. Overall a restful and beautiful stay!
The house was outside of Houghton with a short 10 minute drive to town. House was quiet and comfortable. Nancy was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. We highly recommend!
We enjoyed a wonderful stay in Chassell as we visited with our son who is attending Michigan Tech in Houghton. So nice to visit with in him the comfort of a quaint, clean and comfortable home versus a hotel room. Everything was just perfect. We would love to stay here again in the future
If you’re looking for a quiet and secluded place, where you can hear birds chirping and dew on the grass each morning, look no more.
Nancy was super responsive to the texts, helpful with the information about the area. The place was clean and perfect after full day of adventures in the UP. We would stay there again.
We stayed 2 nights on a multi state trip, using this location as a rest point… and we really enjoyed it. We spent an entire day on the pond using the paddle boat and other water equipment. At one point I just laid on the paddle board in the middle of the water and relaxed! The kids enjoyed swimming, we walked a few trails, and had a bonfire. The only thing I wish it had was a washer and dryer but we just bagged up dirty clothes to wash at our next location in Minnesota…and the listing was clear about not having one… it’s just the only thing I’d change.
My husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary here over the past week. It was everything we had hoped for and more! The farmhouse was cozy and clean, with all the amenities we could possibly need. The property is meticulously maintained as well as most of the trails that we really enjoyed walking. I highly recommend you experience this place for yourself as there aren't even words that can do it justice!
This farmhouse is wonderful. Make sure you take notice of the fixtures and pictures and all the little things that remind you of your childhood. Also, go into Chassell and visit Timothy at the General Store. If you engage him in conversation he is a wealth of information. Nancy the owner is great with her prompt communication.
Enjoyed family meals with our son in the cozy farmhouse! Hosted a bonfire to meet our son's college friends. The property is gorgeous and the fire pit was ready and waiting with a box of dry kinder available.
We had a very nice visit with our son at Michigan Tech, the house is out in beautiful UP nature, even had some deer visit the house, twice! Nice, comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay again!
We enjoyed our stay very much and the setting is very relaxing. My wife said it reminded her of going to Grandma's small farm when she was a child. Will consider staying again.
We enjoyed the quiet and peaceful of the area while visiting family. The river was beautiful with a view of it just outside the back door. Great hosts and accommodations.
We stayed here with our 8 year old daughter while visiting our son at the college. It was an easy scenic drive back and forth from the college, while also being a nice escape for my son from campus life. House was welcoming and well stocked, had everything we needed in the kitchen to make him a home cooked meal for him. Our daughter loved exploring the farmyard and trails. Great family home!
We loved walking the grounds from the lake to the fields. Spent a lot of time under the shady trees. Upstairs bedrooms can be toasty, we brought fans after seeing the weather report and used them. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need!
Easter Stay at Vintage Farmhouse on the Pike River
Upon arrival Nancy had oranges and peeps in a bowl on the table. Very nice touch! The house was awesome along with the 40 acre farm with walking trails that we took full advantage of. The Pike River runs through the property which was another cool feature. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked with coffe maker, blender, dishes, utensiles, baking dishes, pot and pans and even has a full range of spices for us to use. You won't be disappointed staying here!!!!
