The Beachcomber was perfect for our family (6 adults, 26-77). Proximity to lake, NMU and town made everything easy. We were attending Grandon’s hockey game at NMU and also able to celebrate his birthday with his roommates by cooking them a home cooked meal. Everything needed was there and home was very clean. Loved decor.

Urban Beachcomber was a fantastic place to stay and Matt was an excellent host. Perfectly located. Easy access to the bike trail. We went all over to town on our bikes. Up to Presque Isle, over to Harvey and all over town. A one-mile walk into town every night for dinner at our favorite Mqt eateries. Thank you Matt!! We will certainly be back.

Perfect location.

Stayed in town for long weekend celebrating my daughter bridal shower at Landmark. Was close to everything I miss about living in Marquette. Town, trails, beach, etc. Matt was a wonderful host, house was well stocked with all things needed for perfect vacay. Three bedrooms all on separate floors allowing for privacy and decorated with local memorabilia. Sauna was a hit. Would definitely stay again.

Great spot for a family getaway

Matt’s place was a perfect fit for our two families. The downstairs level with a bedroom, bathroom, and entertainment room was perfect for a second family to have some privacy. The location was great, would love to come back in the summer to take advantage of the easy beach access! We were especially impressed with the well-stocked kitchen. Highly recommend this property!

Great Family Vacation

We spend a week in Marquette every summer. This property is oerfect in every way.....location, well stocked, plenty of room to spread out and Matt is always in communication with you for anything. Our family enjoyed the shops and restauraunts near by, easy beach access, and quick drive to access hiking, waterfalls, fly fishing. Will definitely book again.

Great location, great property!!!

Close walk to “down town” and steps to Lake Superior, could not have picked a more perfect location for our group. There were only 3 of us but house for sure can accommodate more if needed. Property owner was very on top of everything and checked in to ensure our stay was flawless. 5+ stars, we all would stay again if we find ourselves in Marquette again!

About the host

Hosted by Matt Jones

Host profile image
I am originally from Negaunee MI. but have lived in Marquette since the 90's. I absolutely love the U.P. and all of its outdoor experiences. The thing I enjoy the most about hosting is being able to share my wonderful property with everyone who visits!

Why they chose this property

Marquette's East Side is loaded with historic homes (and newer builds) but the proximity to downtown and the lake are what makes this location so great!

What makes this property unique

Our property stands out amongst the rest for a number of reasons. Location, design, and a lot of traveler influence have gone into the design and setup of this vacation rental. Not to mention the attention to cleanliness I take while turning over this property is second to none.

Truth be told Im a one guy operation. From answering any booking questions to cleaning and maintenance, its all me, and I take a lot of pride in ensuring my guests a 5 star stay while here.
