Exactly what I wanted for a few days in a quiet plays with dark night skies. Made a fire and grilled every night before stargazing. (I visited during a meteor shower.) Very easy to find, right by the National Forest visitor center (give it a visit, they have great recommendations). Comfortable, clean, and exactly as described.

I've spent about three weeks in the Little House now over the past two years. It's very private and still right off a main road with easy access to western U.P. and northern Wisc. I'll be back. The hosts are very responsive if you need any thing.
