We did not have our children with us, but really appreciated the thoughtfulness of the facility for families. We also appreciated how well supplied the home was. We would recommend it to anyone.
We loved our stay! This place was perfect for my family and my sister’s family. We had everything we needed and thought the house was very nice. We loved the location- perfect for anywhere we wanted to go! One of the nicest places we’ve rented on the Keweenaw!

Thank you so much Eric. We hope you and your family had a wonderful time and come back next year!
The home was clean and comfortable. It had everything you need. The beds were comfortable and the linens and towels were high quality. The location was great for exploring the Keweenaw and all its beauty. We had a memorable vacation.
This home is amazing. They have thought of every possible thing you might need. We stayed for winter carnival and it’s about 15 min from the bridge. It’s the perfect home base for exploring and enjoying the keewenaw.
