Welcome to Little Bear's Place at the foothills of the Porcupine Mountains (the Porkies)! Little Bear's Place is cozy home close to many attractions.

Great backyard with a table and chairs in the spring, summer, and early fall. Spectacular star gazing in the back yard on a clear night. The Northern Lights (aurora borealis) appear multiple times during the year across the road on Lake Superior. A family friendly restaurant with a bowling alley is ten minutes away in White Pine.

Very cute house! Nicely decorated! Great location to the Porcupine Mountains! Becca was great with communication and checked in with us to make sure we settled in good. It was the perfect place for us to stay and the hiking was fantastic!! We will be back
This is a nice, affordable unit. Very clean and comfortable! The views are not majestic, but you won't have to travel far! The nearest laundry, despite what Google tells you, is in Ontonagon. So, grab your laundry, put it in the machine, and head to Roxey's while the wash is going.
My sister and I stayed here for our annual getaway. We wanted to explore the porcupine Mountain wilderness Park and it was the perfect location for this. The house was clean, A great layout and had plenty of room. Becca, The host was very prompt with questions we had for her.
We cooked our meals in the house and had all the cookware and utensils we needed. We had bonfires and beach time (across the road), it was a wonderful trip!
I took my two adult kids away for my son’s 30th to someplace he wanted to visit-Porcupine Mountains. This home is amazing in every way from the lovely outside deck to the inside cozy. We cooked together, had some drinks and just enjoyed being together. When Beeca said it’s close to the park, she want kidding! Lake of the Clouds is right down the road also. The place is away from Ontonagon but it’s a short 15 minute drive. I couldn’t have been happier with the rental and the communications I had with Becca the owner. I look forward to coming back here again !
This house was a great place to stay while we were hiking in the Porkies. It was super convenient to the park. It was also clean and comfortable, including the bed we used. A great advantage for us since it was unusually hot while we were there, was a good central air system. We stayed very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking pots, etc and was the only house we rented in a multi-stop trip across the UP with a dishwasher. 1/2 bath was near bedrooms and tight, the full bath was at the other end of the house. Not super convenient but not a big deal for a short stay either. We arrived in Ontonagon a couple of hours early but were able to get in the house then. That was much appreciated. Would stay again.
Clean & cozy spot near the porcupine mountains, nice they have a fire pit & the host is very quick to respond. Cute house with a bear theme. Comfy beds, nice area of Silver City. Defintley will be back. Loved all the hiking in the area.
Recently updated property and very clean. Great location for access to the UP trail system and the driveway is big enough to park your snowmobile or ATV trailer.
