About this property

Large Lakefront Paradise on the shores of Lake Michigamme

Large luxury hand-built 7 bedroom custom home situated on 6 acres on the shores of Lake Michigamme. Large living areas can fit several families comfortably. Sleeps up to 20! (Small additional fees apply to parties over 16 guests) we also rent the property next door vrbo #1341493 (sleeps 12) perfect for a reunion or for a large gathering!!! Gourmet kitchen, 3 fireplaces, large covered porch, large deck facing water, hot tub (open June-September) card room, exercise room, sauna, wifi. Main level has beautiful master with lake views and soaking tub. Upstairs has 4 bedrooms and office with jack and jill baths/showers. The views are breathtaking from these rooms!!! Basement has 2 more bedrooms, 2 baths, a large media room, exercise room, sauna and a 2nd master and a bunk room. The home is all done with custom paint/ stone treatments, wood walls, beams, iron chandeliers and custom decor. It is opulent yet very comfortable and livable. The house lies on an amazing rock bluff overlooking the lake with arguably the best views of the lake! There is road access to the dock area as well as a gradually sloped walking path along the lake for guests of all ages. The dock lies off of a large stone patio with a built in fire-pit (for roasting hot dogs and smores!) as well as a large sand box for little ones who'd like to play. The dock is perfect for swimming (over 15 feet deep at the end) or fishing (we've caught perch, walleye, crappie, bass and pike). Or you are welcome to use our 2 ocean kayaks (untippable) to tour the waters. Take a paddle out to any of the nearby islands for a picnic! Make sure you get back to the house in time for the sunsets- because they are second-to-none! The whole house glows orange nearly every night as the sun sets directly out from the large floor to ceiling windows over looking the lake! They will take your breath away! Perhaps this is why Albert Einstein, Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone used to frequent this lake for their get-aways as well!

*A portion of our proceeds goes to help the homeless at home and abroad. Thank you for booking!!!

Wonderful Property!

Our multi-generational family thoroughly enjoyed this fabulous property! There are incredible views of Lake Michigamme, kayaks for exploring the lake, deer occasionally visiting, and cold but beautiful lake swimming, along with a sauna to relax & warm up before and/or after the swim. The home is spacious enough for everyone to have privacy and gather for dinners together in huge living room & kitchen area and the host responds quickly to questions.

Amazing home for family vacation

This house was so perfect for our family of 7 adults, an 8 year old, and 5 month old! It had everything we needed and more! We loved the “poker room” and hooked out switch up to have game night, the sauna was incredible and inspiring me to build one in my basement, the kitchen was incredible and loved they had an extra kitchen in the basement! The owner was great to work and and quick to reply! Our family absolutely loved it here! Music on the Manitou on Wednesday night was a hit! Loved every single thing! Thank you!!

Large facility off the beaten path with solitude

Facility is large and well equipped, many people can spread out here. Even though we liked the property, there were a few drawbacks. The road is gravel and four miles long, thus the solitude. The exterior needed some TLC, their were things lying around the yard and water front that were junky. The deck was cracked and weathered excessivley, the deck chair cushions were ratty looking and wet to sit on if it rained the previous day. The sharp kitchen knives were very dull and nothing to sharpen them on. There were several fireplaces and no convenient dry firewood and kindling, we were advised to use only one fire place. We purchased our own firewood at the Park and made our own kindling, with our own tools. The place was well supplied on other items, including games and reading material. We would consider staying here again, but are looking around.

Family reunion 2022

Beautiful, spacious property. The new (since our last visit 3 years ago) railings and front steps were wonderful -- much easier for our geriatric family members. We never did get the living room TV to work, but we didn't really care since there were so many other things to do. A knife sharpener and meat thermometer would be nice additions to the kitchen, although they may have been there and I just didn't find them. Thanks so much for allowing us to rent --we definitely plan to come back!

Lake Michigamme Get Away

The property, house, amenities and location were perfect. If you are looking for seclusion and nature, this is the place to go. My family loved it. I did not know the hot tub and sauna would be such a hit with my family. It was a memorable and fantastic week.

Beautiful Up North Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Lake Michigamme cabin. Everything was as described. There was plenty of room for our party of 11 adults and 2 children and everyone had plenty of space. Although my father-in-law was not able to walk the path down to the dock, he was easily able to walk the "road" that takes you down to the same location just not along the side of the lake. Fishing was excellent off the dock with plenty of Rock Bass, smallmouth and a couple of Walleye. The kitchen was furnished with everything we needed and we were able to make large meals with ease. All members of our party are already asking when we are going back as they had such a good time.

Great Vacation Home

The house was large enough to hold 18-20 adults comfortably. Plenty of room for a larger family gathering. Well stocked kitchen. The host/owner Rebecca, was a great communicator and everything was as described. ( except for the hot tub that was advertised in the VRBO description wasn’t on the property). Overall a very nice place to stay and I would highly recommend it.

Family and friends riding the trails

Beautiful property and plenty of room for the 12 of us. The lake was so nice to look at, unfortunately we didn’t have time to enjoy it. Some of the furniture could be updated. The hot tub was really big and a few of us jumped in one night after a long day. Kitchen was stocked well and plenty of games to play. A few of the guys enjoyed the basement media room to watch a few games on.

Family reunion

We very much enjoyed our reunion at your home on Lake Michigamme. Your home is large and beautiful. There were 18 adults and one infant. We never felt crowded. Everyone especially enjoyed the kayaks, lily pad and that marvelous hot tub. We also enjoyed the most perfect warm weather; most unusual for the UP in late August.

Lakefront oasis

My friends and I spend a weekend away every year and this beautiful cabin was the nicest place we've stayed so far. So many amenities with the lakefront, hot tub and sauna yet totally excluded and serene. Was the perfect escape for our group. Would highly recommend to others.

Say “ya to da UP eh!”

The house was beautiful and well equipped. We had so much room for our family to spread out and enjoy the house - especially on the rainy days. We appreciated the relaxed vibe and the use of the games and toys and things we had forgotten. It was so nice to be back in the UP where my siblings and I grew up. Thanks Rebecca!

2nd Stay in the Feely Lake House

Amazing property and location. Great getaway if you're looking to unwind and get away from the world for a week or so. The lake is beautiful, we brought our boat this trip and the ability to dock it right at the house is great! Rented jet skis as well. Fishing is hit and miss, first trip we caught walleye, pike, rock bass and croppie, enough to feed 24 people twice. Last trip was not as good, plenty of rock bass and croppie, only 1 walleye and 1 pike. Quite a few things to get out and look at, plan on at least a 45 minute drive to any of the destinations listed in the guest book. I would recommend this property to anyone and will most likely stay there again. Great job on hosting Mr. and Mrs. Feely, and amazing property.

Great family vacation

We stayed here for my parents' 50th anniversary. It was beautiful and more than enough room for the 17 of us, ranging in age from 7-70. The kids loved the deep water off the dock and loved playing on the swim mat. Adults appreciated that there was more than enough room for us all to spread out in the house. We would definitely stay here again.

UP Family Reunion

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at this beautiful lakefront home. There was plenty of room for all of our family members to finally spend time together. The adults and kids all enjoyed the "lilly pad" in the water, and we found the dock system perfect for our jet ski and boat. Sunsets were beautiful, especially while enjoying the hot tub!. Rebecca was an incredible host, quickly responding to our many questions. We have already made our plans for next summer to return to this incredible lakefront home on Lake Michigamme.

About the host

Hosted by Rebecca Feely

Host profile image
We built this home as a vacation get-away for our family. We have found it hard as our kids get older to enjoy it as much as we would like. We feel like the right thing to do at this point is to share our amazing place with all of you.

Why they chose this property

My wife was raised 30 miles from here and we have always come to back to visit the area. We have lived all around the country and have never seen an area so beautiful and so pure as Michigamme. We chose to build here to give our children the joys of making memories in God's country!

What makes this property unique

This location is remote, yet convenient, which is hard to find in a vacation rental. The air and water is so clean and fresh, soak in the peace and tranquility! You can spend the week at the house and be refreshed or take a day trip or 2 to amazing locations in either direction! There is so much to do and so much to see- you will want to come back for more- we promise!!!
