The kitchen and grill were great, we cooked a lot during the week we stayed. The house was a good size for two couples, my two aunts and an adult cousin and two dogs. We had 4 vehicles and a trailer with a Razor and 4x4. Great location for all the trails, sight seeing and getting to restaurants and stores. Everything was clean, but it is time to refresh the couch and some of the mattresses. The owner responded quickly when the dishwasher stopped working and got it replaced same day. It was a fun trip!

This place was probably 5 stars a few years ago and could be again with just a little attention. Would love to come back if a few improvements are made. The couch is completely shot. Just take a seat over the fold out bed. You sink in probably 2ft. The water heater is full of sediment. Lots of bubbling noise, no longer efficient and lacks hot water capacity because of it. Needs to be flushed or probably just replaced. The side door mat has so much mold on it that its gross to walk on. Please just toss it. Better to walk on the concrete. We also felt like the place was due for a really good cleaning. Some of the glasses on the top self had dust and flies in them. We set something ontop of fridge and couldn't believe the dust. House has a great layout and plenty of space. Loved the kitchen, the large dining table and large coffee table. Backyard was great but had 2ft weeds when we arrived. Once mowed a few days later it was great.

Pros: Very spacious home. Has central a/c. It works well. Mudroom is nice. DW works well. Large wood dining table seats 8. One bathroom is updated. Beds for our 3 couples to sleep comfortably. TV worked well. We could sign into our Direct TV account easily.Cons: Pans are small & low quality. For a place that sleeps 12 you need to be able to cook larger quantities. Griddle cord was there but no griddle. Not enough TP for a place that sleeps so many & it was VERY thin/low quality. The only can opener there does not work. We had to get a tool from the car to open cans to make our dinner. The hot water heater is very noisy. The house smelled wet, especially towards the back bedroom. Back bedroom bathroom shower and toilet are not good. Very small shower, low/old toilet. TP holder barely attached to wall. The couch is in poor condition & broken. It needs to be replaced. The coffee maker takes 30-40 minutes to brew a full pot. The water in the fridge door comes out EXTREMELY SLOW & the filter light is on. The house is showing signs of wear and tear and lack of attention to upkeep. Some updates & repairs are needed. The listing doesn't say there is central a/c, dish soap, DW pods, hand soaps, PT or TP but these items were there. Communication with the host was ok, not great. I did not get a response when I asked why the date for the second payment changed after booking. Another response took 2 days. Overall a decent place to stay but I probably wouldn't book again for that price.

Our travel plans changed last minute and we were glad to find this place to stay that was convenient to so much we wanted to do in the UP. It was just a few minutes to groceries and restaurants and also provided us with great access to the National Lakeshore. The property is huge with lots of space for the dogs and privacy. Beds were comfortable and the rooms were very spacious. Thank you for letting us use your home!

4th of July Holiday

We had a great time visiting family for the 4th and would recommend the property to anyone! Check in was easy and the place was in close proximity to town and all the 4th of July festivities. The place also had enough space for all of us and we really enjoyed our stay.

Just Ok

Property showed photos of outdoor furniture that wasn’t available upon arrival. House smelled wet towards the middle of our stay. There seems to be an issue with the exhaust on the hot water heater creating a sound that sounded like fire works going off all night. The dishwasher didn’t work upon arrival so the dishes inside were dirty. We finally found the breaker box and reset the breaker to get it to work. The inside of the house seemed to be infested with mosquitoes and we were bit all night long in our sleep. The couch should be retired. Two of the seats are like sitting directly on the floor. For the cost of this place I would have thought it would be of nicer quality.

We stayed for four nights and our stay was exceptional! The pictures in the description do not do it justice. It is bigger brighter newer and nicer than it appears. Everything you need is there, icemaker, curling Iron, blow dryer, bedding, towels, dishwasher, washer and dryer, coffee maker, coffee filters, soap. Though it is not desolate, you feel as though it is. No neighbors in sight, very quiet and peaceful. Approximately 10 to 15 minutes from town. It has a Fire pit with plenty of chairs, small patio with gas grill and round picnic table. Two car attached garage with mudroom between the garage and the house. The only negative I could see was the garage could use a little tidying though there's plenty of room for two cars. And the coffee pot is slow as molasses! 5stars!

UP adventures

This house comfortably accommodated our multi generational family vacation. It was close to the trails in the Hiawatha Forest for our off road adventures and close to the highway for our tourist adventures. The yard was large as was the fire pit with enough chairs for us all to gather. The indoor space was large and open allowing us plenty of room to visit and dine. The mudroom was a great place to drop our gear so we didn't bring the outdoors in. My favorite part was the large dining room table that allowed us all to dine and play games together.Overall we had a fantastic family vacation and would definitely rent here again.
