About the host

Hosted by Matt & Holly Marenger

Host profile image
Hello, we are the Marenger's. My wife Holly, and our 6 children have made the Au Train/Munising area our annual destination since the early 2000's. Our love for the northern U.P. and the crisp, clean waters of Lake superior eventually led us to the vacation rental business. We live south of the Munising area and operate our sporting goods store that we opened in 1985 when we were nothing more than high school sweethearts. We also own and operate a drive thru coffee shop there as well, however, thirty some years, six kids and a grandson later, we decided that our hearts are with making memories, Thus, we are now in the vacation rental business. Our hope is to provide properties that fit the needs of large families, or groups seeking to enjoy the presence of each other in the most peaceful, beautiful settings possible.

Why they chose this property

There is no property like this absolutely perfect piece of land. Our gorgeous Hiawatha Log home is meticulously maintained and positioned on a pristine piece of sand beach on Lake Superior.

What makes this property unique

Many benefits come with this rental, our favorite is the perfect private sand beach, as well as the modern rustic atmosphere inside the lodge. Lake side fire pit, beautiful gazebo overhanging lake superior shore line, board walk paths throughout the property, private sitting areas along the lake shore, all new mattresses, linens and bedding for your cozy night sleep.
