Winter Carnival fun!

The house was just what we needed for our visit to MTU. It was clean and roomy…While there we got a bit of snow overnight, the roads were plowed the next morning. We had lots of fun on our long weekend. Thanks for sharing your house with us!

MTU Family Retreat

The place is amazing. Very clean and spacious. Location to Houghton and the Keewenaw is perfect. We had five adults so the three bedrooms were perfect. Open kitchen/dining/living room space is perfect for being together. The outdoor patio and lawn on the water is wonderful. Loved the hot tub. This was our second time staying there and we hope to return again! Thank you for sharing your space with us!

Spacious and a great location

We stayed while moving our son into his MTU apartment. This property was very spacious, comfortable and in a great location. Quiet area. Fully stocked. It literally had everything we needed. We made use of the grill and patio and enjoyed the view of the canal. The owner was very responsive to questions. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again.

Better than expected!

We were all very impressed by this property! The pictures honestly don’t do the property, especially the outdoors, justice. It was spectacular! Large back patio with nice furniture, a grill, and hot tub. The yard is large and well maintained. And the views are stunning! We will definitely check here first if we return to the area!

Great location near Houghton and Michigan Tech!

We really enjoyed staying in this house for 3 nights while attending my son's graduation from Michigan Tech. It was a quick drive to campus, Houghton and Hancock. The house was well-appointed and very clean. Plenty of sleeping space and a beautiful view of the Portage. The owner was very responsive when we had any questions. Definitely would recommend!

Great spot outside of town but close to town. Portage lake is beautiful and sunrise from property is exquisite. Hot tub was warm and very clean. Grill was both clean and full of gas. Home was very clean and great notes related to the house and community. Very happy with our stay and location.

Really excellent house!

We recently visited Houghton for a college visit with out son. This house was perfectly located, with a beautiful view of the river, great patio space and nicely set up. The house was extremely clean, the check in process was thoughtful and well managed and the host communicated everything really well. Everything was within a quick drive and it was nice to have the extra space to stretch out during our stay. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this if you’re visiting the area.
