Ski & snowmobile weekend

Spent a long weekend with family. Property is very clean with plenty of amenities. Only downside is the shower is difficult to use if you are taller than 5’4”. Would stay again if coming back to this area.

Great place

Perfect place for 5 guys in their 40's to ski the nearby hills during the day and relax in the hot tub at night. Everything very clean and the hot tub was big. Will stay again as the kids get older and I bring the family to the U.P.

Cozy and close to ski hills

We enjoyed our stay here and found all the amenities and items we needed were at the cabin. Hot tub was well maintained and got used a lot. We had a great time enjoying the lake effect snow at the nearby ski hills.

4 wheeling getaway

We stayed at this cozy little house to do some four wheeling in the beautiful forest area up North. The hot tub was a welcome delight at the end of the day for our tired muscles. We would definitely stay here again.

Ski Getaway

The property was exactly what we were looking for and the check in process was a breeze. The house is very clean and comfortable as well as adequately stocked with everything you need. We were up north for a ski trip and the location was perfect for getting to Snowriver resort and shopping in Ironwood. We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic house for ski weekend!

Loved the house! Perfect space for everyone. Comfy beds, big screens in every room. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook a big meal or just grab a snack. Close to Snowriver and Rt 2 so accessibility is good. Very clean and well maintained. Will definitely look to return.

Great stay for a ski trip!

4 of us planned a snowmobile trip but due to conditions we were not able to use the trails. We switched last min to a Ski trip and the location could not have been better! We did a day at Snow River and a day at Powederhorn. Both were only 10 min away from the house! The hot tub was the best after a long day!!

Wakefield House

The property was beautiful! Big beautiful trees in the backyard and the yard was so pretty vibrant green yet. The house itself was beautifully decorated and felt a little like home! It reminded me of my grandparents house in Ironwood. Loved Our Stay! Neighbors were very friendly, it turned out they knew some of my family from Ironwood Michigan. Thank you again for making us feel welcome and for letting us stay on your beautiful property.

About the host

Hosted by Dean Rossey Jr

Host profile image
As a family of five, we started coming up to Blackjack and Indianhead Mountains in 2016. Our family loved it so much we decided we wanted a place of our own and decided to but. We wanted something, we could come up to and have it feel like home. We also wanted something that our kids can enjoy as they get older.

Why they chose this property

We seen this property and knew it was for us. With 4 bedrooms it was the perfect space. With a few updates inside and a new deck and hot-tub we knew it would be a hit . As a fire and water restoration contractor, there will be things that I will do to make a great property, even better over time.

What makes this property unique

This house is unique in the fact that is has 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, still with a cozy home feel. We hope you come to our house and enjoy the comfort and relaxation that we feel when coming here.

Thank you for choosing us

Dean and Ellen
