Great place that accommodates snowmobilers. Plenty of parking for trucks and trailers. Easy access to all the trails..

Lighthouse
Lighthouse was a great place. It was clean and in a great location in relation to snowmobile destinations. It does share a parking lot with the AmerInn hotel and parking wasn't ideal. Trucks and trailers were parked in front of the house and I had to park 2 trucks and trailers on the far end of the parking lot. Hopefully this can be addressed for the future. Also....I had emailed and tried calling the property contact on VRBO asking some simple questions for about a week and no correspondence. The only correspondence I received was an hour before checkin to tell me how to do so. Which I assumed would've been sooner. I was worried I didn't have place to stay all the way until check-in
If you’re interested in Lake Superior sunrises or sunsets this is the place for you! The views were unbelievable.
We stayed here as a family of 6 and everyone had a great time! We enjoyed swimming in the lake and throwing rocks in the river. The only downside is I believe the house is owned by the Americinn behind it. I didn’t realize we would be on the hotel property so there were hotel guests walking right in front of our place (front yard) to go to the water and talk on the phone. Based off the listing I thought it would be more secluded.
I would definitely stay here again and recommend it for anyone that is looking to visit the Porcupine Mountains /Lake of the Clouds. We had the best time!!
Great Location: We loved the house, we loved the location right on a point on Lake Superior. Beautiful sunsets!
Poor Location: Also next to a hotel. Hotel guest made them selves at home on the property; in the backyard, they used the picnic table, came up on the deck, one person even tried to come inside the house thought it was a museum. During our three days at the house had to deal with 20-30 people each day wandering onto the property. My wife and daughter were startled one morning when they went out on the deck to have a cup of coffee only to be greater by 4 strangers setting in the chairs on the deck! I would pick a more private location on our next trip and recommend the owner put up a private property sign.
