Quick sledding trip

Property was great, however access to the main trail 3 for sledding was rough. We ended up taking sleds directly to trail.

Football Weekend

This was a wonderful location for us! We were up for our son's football game. We loved the closeness to the stadium and the house was great. We made good use of the fire pit outside. Thanks for a great weekend!!

Freshman move in weekend

Shared house with another family from our area. Plenty of room for both our families. Living room and kitchen were plenty big enough for us all to spend time together. Beautiful fire pit outside. Parking was easy. This place made us feel at home on a weekend with high emotions. It was also close to campus and quiet.

Wonderful home close to MTU!

This was a perfect “home base” for moving our student into the Elements apartments. The location was perfect, the home was clean and comfortable, and the owners had everything set up for us. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great place to rent with a family group!

Great size kitchen and dining area, nice large yard. Not too far from many great beaches and must see spots in Keweenaw Peninsula. 5 bedrooms were all well kept and clean. We also enjoyed the firepit one night too. Would stay again.

Fantastic. Room to spread out and close to everything

We had 7 people stay in the house for a week's summer vacation. 3 Married generations (grand parents, parents, daughter & husband) and an 18 year old. Plenty of room to spread out into the bedrooms, but great common areas in kitchen, dinning, living room, and outdoor fire pit patio. Kitchen was fantastic: well stocked with pots, spices, etc. Double oven and large 5 burner stove helped with a big group. Separate coffee bar area on other side of kitchen helped remove from congestion in the kitchen. Entire house was well stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, soap, etc which helped avoid an emergency run to the store for supplies. House is well maintained. Close to everything but still has an out in the country feel. Stores less than 10 minutes away. Downtown Houghton is 10 minutes and Copper Harbor 1 hour. Would stay again if we come back to this area.

5 day houghton get-away

there were 3 couples in our group, everyone had a great time. due to lack of snow could not leave from house, having 2 driveways made getting in and out a breeze. the couple that stayed in basement said,"was a little chilly", used an electric heater from trailer to take the chill away. Awesome house will stay there again!!!
