Really great spacious house with a friendly and helpful host. We stayed here so that we could ride our bikes to the Noque North Trails. Prime location, ample parking, and a solid kitchen for cooking big meals. Will definitely stay here again.
This property was perfect for our family of six. There is access to mountain bike trails literally feet from the front door. The owner was easy to get in touch with and quick to answer questions. We would stay here again!
We had a great time in this well-equipped house. Our group was 2 couples, a baby, and a single and this house suited us perfectly. Would definitely stay here again!
Nice property in a quiet, middle-class subdivision. Comfortable and clean, with extra towels and sheets available. Laundry room was large and outfitted well. Kitchen/dining/living room grouped for great socializing. We would rent again if the situation arises.
The property is in a great location. The house is very clean and comfortable with plenty of room. The kitchen is well stocked, and some toiletries are provided. The laundry room is spacious. Laundry items are provided along with an ironing board and drying rack. We will stay here again when visiting Marquette.
This house was awesome and I would book it again clean quiet street and the hosts even left some beers out for us Marquette is a pretty special place and you can tell these guys take pride in it. Thanks for the hospitality and we will be back for sure
This was the third time we have stayed at this property- so obviously I think it's a good choice.
We love the location, the multiple bedrooms and bathrooms and the communal kitchen.
Thanks!
We were in Marquette from Boston for the marathon and to connect with family from Minneapolis. The house is spacious, comfortable and clean with a good kitchen and nice grill. Parking was easy and access to the Superior Dome and downtown Marquette were convenient. Notably, 2 of the bedrooms in this split level are downstairs where the floor was a bit cool, but there were area rugs in each room.
My son & his fiancé love Marquette and wanted to be married on the shores of Lake Superior. We chose Kelly’s place as our “home base” for the weekend. It was a great location for all of the weekend activities. We appreciated all of the provided amenities from comfortable beds & pillows, to washer, dryer, iron, toiletries, etc. We hope to stay again!
This was a lovely home, perfect location, and wonderful hosts! While we were there the refrigerator decided to stop working and within just a few hours a brand new one was delivered! You would have thought this was a big deal, but it Ended up being almost a non-issue. So appreciative of how quickly and completely the hosts responded. We would definitely stay here again!
The VRBO was perfect for our stay, had everything we needed and was very comfortable.
The only thing that would have improved our stay would have been a little better water pressure from the shower head. This was not something that would prevent me from staying here again.
thanks for the great accomodations
Our group visited Marquette to attend NMU/MTU football game. We were very happy with the house - plenty of room and clean. All the necessities that you would need for a weekend. Thank you for being a great host!

We had a friend’s wedding and the location was perfect. We were able to go out to dinner and the bars easily and come home to a lot of space to hangout. Each room had a fan, towels, and extra wedding if needed. Lots of extra towels in the linen closet. They supplied toiletries. They allowed us to check in early since we were traveling from so far away. I would stay there again if needed.
This was the second time I have stayed at this property - and I was equally impressed this time. We had a group of five women who were in Marquette for hiking, skiing, etc. The layout of the home proved perfect for this type of group. The individual bedrooms afforded sufficient space and privacy and the large kitchen and open living area gave us enough space to gather, eat and hang out. I just discovered the bike/hiking trail literally next door to the property and was thrilled! I plan to return!
