MTU Visit

Wonderful place to stay to visit my MTU student. Clean and comfortable, and amazing views across the Portage Canal. Will look to book again on another visit.

Beautiful getaway!

Precious Gem. Great big windows looking out over a deck and lake, the perfect tree... it was great to come "Home" to this rather than a hotel room! The solar lights in the tree was a neat touch, the propane firepit was nice to have, the gas fireplace was well used... Hosys were very attentive to my wants and needs. Would definitely stay there again!
