Very nice place - had a few older ladies with us and it was easy for them. The only issue we had was we couldn’t get the tv to work well (was in and out) but we didn’t contact the host about it as it wasn’t that important. Would highly recommend for location and value!

We were very happy with our stay here. It was very well stocked with lots of extra towels, etc., and the kitchen had everything we needed--including a tray of condiment packages in the fridge! Beds were very comfortable, and we loved the location right next to the rail trail, park, and lake. Check-in and communication with the hosts was easy, and we would definitely stay here again.

This is a great option when staying in the Keweenaw. This property is clean and a great size for our family of four. Our one and only criticism would be the mattresses, they are very hard and uncomfortable.

A great place for family.

We had a sister reunion, and this was the perfect place. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. The kitchen was stocked pretty well with utensils, pots and pans, along with place settings, etc. The location was great. The view was awesome of the Bay and the walking trail was nice. We will definitely stay again.

Great place!

New, clean, super easy to access. Even though it’s right by the park and there was plenty of traffic from the ice fishermen, it’s quiet in the townhouse. Perfect location for spending time with our Tech student 😁.

Great place for families

This is a nice property for families. The beach and playground and right outside and even with the crowds from Strawberry Festival it was quiet inside. The layout is great and gives everyone their own space. Really convenient check in and check out and very minimal tasks to complete prior to leaving. The finishes also made it super easy to clean up after our kids.

Super clean!

Always a pleasure to stay at this property. Communication from booking to check out was wonderful. Furnishings are beautiful, townhouse is clean and very spacious. Be aware, the bed in the master is very firm which doesn’t always suit everyone .

Awesome modern property!

We’ve stayed at this property before, just a different unit. We were excited to find this unit because we were previously told this property was being changed to long term rentals. Always love this property because the units are like new, modern, and always clean. We hope to stay here again next year when we come for our annual trip!

Meeting Our Needs

This is our second stay in this townhouse. The townhouse is near our family but it allows for our own space and cooking facilities. We thoroughly enjoy watching all the activity at the Chassell Township Park. The location provides many safe places to walk.

Great weekend

Overall everything was great. A couple notes. We could not get the WiFi to work and the entrance to the street is very hard to see. Very cute space, loved the complimentary tea and coffee. Check out was super easy and the location was perfect for visiting MTU. Will definitely consider staying here again!
