Excellent time in the U.P.

This was a great property and wonderful for the entire family. When we arrived, the house was very clean and was stocked with every amenity we could ask for. There was so much to do at the house and in the area. The house is far enough away from town to be secluded, but close enough to everything that you can get to everything in the area within just a few minutes. The kitchen had everything needed to cook meals if desired. We had persons from age 7 to 81 and all enjoyed the home. Thank you for such good hospitality!

Nice Getaway

My husband and I were looking for a quiet place to stay and this was the perfect retreat. Not too far away from Houghton or other things to do in the UP, but definitely off the beaten path. The home was well equipped and had everything we needed. There is plenty of space for a larger group. I would highly recommend this location to anyone.

Perfect place for a long weekend!

This was the perfect place for us to get away and “unplug” with family and friends for a long weekend. We were able to relax in the hot tub, play games in the basement, enjoy being outside and play board games to our hearts content. The host was very kind and let us know all the details we needed to know ahead of time so check in and check out was a breeze. They were also very responsive with any questions or small things that came up while we were there. We were very sad to leave and would come back here anytime we are in the area for another recharge!
