About this property

Cozy, super-clean cabin minutes from Lake Superior & the Porkies!

CJ's "cabin" is located in the old mining town of White Pine, the perfect base camp to explore the UP, hike the Porkies, hunt agates on the beach or just relax. Most of the homes in White Pine were built as identical "company houses", but CJ's has been remodeled with raised ceilings and wood paneling for the rustic, cozy feel of a cabin retreat. The master sleeps two on a queen Tempur-Pedic memory foam mattress. The small bedroom sleeps one and the foldout sofa in the living room sleeps two kids or one adult.

CJ's is just minutes from the Konteka Black Bear Lounge and snowmobile trails, and a short drive will take you on beautiful adventures exploring the Porcupine Mountains or to the beach. If you want to Netflix and chill or game after exploring the area, we have 400 Mbps Internet and most streaming services. In the winter, the driveway will be plowed to allow room for up to two vehicles and a snowmobile trailer.

Our mission is to provide you with the cleanest, coziest place to relax - a place that feels more like a home away from home than a rental. You don't have to worry about bringing your own coffee, tea, toilet paper, shampoo, dish soap, dishwasher detergent or bath products; all the bedding and towels are new and we pride ourselves on fast communication to help you with whatever you need.

We only have a few spots left for the summer. August 17-19, August 28-Sept 4, Sept 8-11, and Sept 17-18 are open, but the end dates have been blocked to avoid same-day check-ins as we need a full day to clean. Please contact me if you would like those dates and I will unblock so you can book them.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: For those who have stayed with us before or those of you reading the reviews, the PRIVATE BEACH that came with the house last summer and fall will be available for the rest of this summer and fall in 2025. IT WILL NOT be available in 2026. Located on Lake Superior between Silver City and Ontonagon, the beach is private property that will be your very own for swimming, agate hunting and all that other stuff that makes Lake Superior so great!

Great little place!

We made a last minute decision to get out of the 95 degree temps in Indy and booked this place last minute. What a find! It’s the cleanest vacation rental we’ve ever stayed! Bed is super comfy and plenty of water pressure. Overall the perfect little cabin for a get away. Kitchen has literally everything you’d need (not a lot of choices for eating out close so we cooked a lot) and the temps up there in June are perfect. The pic is from the private beach that’s included.

Wonderful home

This was a fantastic home. There was absolutely nothing that I would change about this place. Its central location around several of the local landmarks, as well as the guest book with recommendations, made for a great trip and way to learn about the surrounding communities. The host was very easy to reach and extremely helpful. The house was immaculately clean and comfortable, but the private beach was one of the biggest highlights. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Charming, well stocked, relaxing stay

My daughter and I were very happy with the entire rental. It was extremely well stocked. I appreciated the attention to detail with anything we may need. It was clean, comfortable, cozy, quiet and the communication was excellent. I can’t say enough good things about our stay. We had fun exploring in nature, hiking and were very happy to find our very first yooper rocks! With the help of CJ letting us borrow some flashlights. Thank you!!

Very nice, clean and comfortable!

We enjoyed the added bonus of the private beach, and found the drive to the hiking trails in the porcupine mountains to be short and easy. We were fortunate to hit the peak of fall colors and the scenery was absolutely gorgeous. I especially liked all the waterfalls. My husband especially liked touring the Quincy copper mine.

About the host

Hosted by CJ Skoviak

Host profile image
As a native of of White Pine, I'm excited to open up our home which is just a few miles away from Lake Superior and the Porcupine Mountains. From agate hunting to skiing the Porkies, jumping off the Bonanza (Greenwoods to the locals) waterfalls to snowmobiling, I've had many adventures in the U.P. I'll never forget... and hope you do the same!

Why they chose this property

Part of the charm of White Pine is the "cookie cutter" suburban layout of matching homes. This company house, however, has been completely remodeled inside with raised, wooden ceilings for a more individual, rustic feel, and all the beds have brand new sheets, blankets, comforters and pillows. No musty bedding or towels! The driveway will be cleared for snowmobile trailers and trucks in the winter.

What makes this property unique

We pride ourselves on being super-clean!
Brand-new bedding.
New bath towels.
Heat, AC, ceiling fans.
Keurig Coffee, Tea.
All the amenities you will need.
