Weekend Getaway

Was nice and quiet visit, loved being on the beachfront. If it was cold enough the fireplace would've been used, instead we made use of the firepit outside. Definitely would visit again, only a 40 minute drive away from Escanaba and a nice county drive into the peninsula.

Wonderful and secluded for. Wonderful and secluded for the Week!

Such a special time staying here. We had a lot of days where we didn't even move because we rested so well. The accomodations are great for two people. I don't know how more than that might be able to shower each day because water situation but we had no problems. We grilled out and enjoyed the beach and beautiful outdoors all week.
