Great Home in the UP

The is place was perfect for what my family of 4 needed during our MI road trip. Plenty of space to spread out, a convenient location in town with restaurants and grocery options, and easy access to outdoor adventures. The property was clean and well stocked. We will be back!

A great place to stay!

It was nice to have a house that was within walking distance to many of the gift shops/stores, restaurants, and Pictured Rocks Cruises. We definitely enjoyed our stay and the house was welcoming and comfortable to stay at. The property owner was very prompt on answering our questions during our stay. We would definitely stay there again!

Lovely accommodations, central location

We headed to Munising to explore the area and found amazing scenery and activities. Lisa’s property was lovely and comfortable and perfect to come to each after each day of sightseeing. Kids loved the huge TV and proximity to DQ. Parents appreciated the clean and pleasant atmosphere, well-stocked kitchen and central location.

Beautiful home and perfect location!

Everything about this house just made our trip easy. All the little things that make a home-away-from-home feel comfortable -- well-supplied kitchen, plenty of towels, lights and ceiling fans that work properly :) The bathrooms are updated and beautifully renovated. And the wood floors and trim/moulding throughout the house are gorgeous! We would absolutely stay here again!

Lovely Home in Munising

The home was just as advertised and very clean. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our family vacation. We especially appreciated the black-out shades in the bedrooms. The house is in a great location, close to many great restaurants and a short drive to Pictured Rocks. The host was very helpful and quick to respond to questions. We had a wonderful time.

Perfect

This home was the perfect spot for our family's trip to Munising. The location allowed us to walk everywhere. We rented E bikes, took a boat tour, hiked, and shopped. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from. The house is incredibly clean and comfortable. We loved the combination of the old charm with all the modern amenities. 5 stars plus!

Great place to stay

The sleep set is good for couples only as all 3 beds are eithe queen or king.. For families with older children there is no proper sleep accomodiations. It might still be good for a same family of 6 , but it is not good for multiple families with children.

Fantastic home for a family trip to Pictured Rocks

Our family had such a wonderful time exploring Munising, the Pictured Rocks, shipwrecks, and Marquette while throughly enjoying this charming and comfortable home. Being so close to the center of town was a huge perk for us - as was being next door to DQ, if we're being honest! ;) This home is very clean and updated along with tons of character and closets! Thank you for being such great hosts, with the welcome treats and the helpful recommendations. We really enjoyed it!

Lovely Home!

We loved our stay! The pictures don’t do the space justice. The space is wonderful and easy to navigate. We had our family of four and my in-laws with us and never felt like we needed more space. DQ next door was a treat, we went every night. The fire detector in the kitchen is very sensitive, I set it off every time we used the stove or burners. We will definitely stay again!!

Amazing stay in Munising!

Our family had an amazing stay! The kitchen is equipped with everything you need! Home has recently been renovated and is stunning, so much attention to detail. The beds were all very comfortable, and there was plenty of space for all six of our family. We LOVED it!!!!! And the Dairy Queen next door was a huge hit! Plus, we were able to walk to all the shops and a few restaurants in the downtown area. So fun! Pictured Rocks was stunning, we especially loved the views from our hike on Chapel Loop.

Vacation

Everything was good, except we did not have use of a grill until the day before we were to leave. I have a suggestion about going upstairs. There needs to be another railing on both sides. It’s hard to go up and down steps if there isn’t railings on both sides. It’s hard for people who have had joint replacements, otherwise it was great. Just a suggestion.

I grew up on a resort in Au Train and met my husband here as his parents had a summer home on 16 Mile Lk. (He's a cheesehead from Wisconsin) We enjoy the outdoors, boating, fishing, side by side riding, hiking, etc... We are new grandparents and enjoy sharing all that we love with them and our family. We hope you enjoy this beautiful area as much as we do. Grateful to call Munising home!
