We enjoyed our stay at the house! It was very clean and it had plenty of space for my family. Having bedrooms downstairs was great for myself and my parents who came on the trip. It was close to MTU which was nice. We enjoyed spending time on the covered porch. We will definitely keep this in mind for our next trip! Our host was super nice and communication was excellent in describing how to get there and where to park which was very helpful.

Great place! Our kids loved the games and the sleeping areas. We appreciated having a w/d and stocked kitchen. Easy check in and no issues. Plus, the bay was very warm for swimming.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute house in Chassell. The host, Aaron, was super friendly and proactive with communication. The house was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and the location was a convenient jumping-off point for hiking and kayaking activities around the Keweenaw Peninsula. Highly recommend!
