A great location, cozy backyard, and the kitchen was nicely equipped. It is worth noting that grown adults cant stand up straight in the loft portion, but perfect for elementary or middle school ages kids. Nobody goes on vacation to hang out in your bedroom anyway. We had a wonderful stay!

Perfect UP Cottage
We had 3 adults and one toddler staying here and had so much space! We were impressed with how many people could wind up fitting into this cottage. It had all the amenities we would need, and we loved being able to use the charcoal grill and fire pit. The view of the river is really nice. Instructions were clear provided by the host on how to get in and for check-out. We had a couple questions and the response time was great. The location was a perfect spot for us to go to a few different places in the UP. We’re saving this one for the future in case we have another UP trip! Highly recommend this home!

Fantastic Cabin
Great location for exploring the Marquette area. The cabin is spacious and comfortable. The kids loved the loft area. The spot by the river is beautiful. We liked it so much that we are hoping to come up this winter to explore some of the cross country ski trails in the area.

Fabulous Summertime Vacay!
Cabin was spotless, welcoming, great floor plan, well stocked with essentials, easy access to Au Train River, and so close to Lake Superior! All beds met our standards (we can be picky about beds). Clean, comfortable & nice linens. Fans & extra blankets for when the weather fluctuates. We enjoyed our family games at the “game table” and our fires at the fire pit! An overall great UP experience!

Quiet Riverfront Retreat in the Beautiful UP
We had a relaxing and enjoyable week. The Riverfront Cottage is beautiful and was fully equipped for our stay. Located on the gentle flowing Au Train River, allowed for kayak trips up and down stream. Close enough to easily visit Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Hiawatha National Forest along with Munising and Marquette but set off the main roads for a quiet stay. We will return on our next stay to the north central UP area.

Wonderful family vacation
We had two families of three stay and had plenty of room! The kitchen is full of anything you may need, including a Keurig and a regular coffee maker. It was great to be able to sit and look at the water every morning (but don't go in....lots of leeches!) It was close to everything we wanted to do while there. Thanks for the great stay!

A slice of heaven!
We were incredibly happy with our stay at Mike & Colleen's cottage. The listing is even better than it looks in the pictures. It's wonderfully cozy without being cramped, and spacious without feeling empty. The kitchen is well stocked with the basics. If you're coming with a large group, and plan a lot of home cooking, make sure to bring a few extra bags, tupperware, etc. It looks like the stairs down to the river had been redone recently - they're very nice and an easy walk. The view from the back yard is wonderful. Access to the lake, Au Train, Munising are all super convenient. We highly recommend looking into a pontoon rental to check-out Pictured Rocks. We got perfect conditions on a half day rental, and even got to explore a sunken ship from the 1800's! Mike and Colleen are great communicators. The house was perfectly clean and easy to access with no unwanted surprises. Good luck and enjoy your vacations!

Annual February Snowmobile Trip
The cottage is as beautiful in person as it was on line. It's a very clean and cozy place to stay if you are ever in the Au Train area. The owners take great pride in this property. This was our first time staying here and we will will be back next year.

Great "Home Base" in UP
Thank you for sharing your second home with us! We had a wonderful time traveling everywhere from Pictured Rocks to Marquette to Porcupine Mountains. It's truly amazing all of the beautiful sights in the UP. Your location on the river was a great home base, too. Everything was warm, inviting, and comfortable. We certainly hope to be back! The only "critical" feedback I would give is regarding air freshener and scented detergent. Our family is sensitive to strong scents (they can cause headaches), so we would've appreciated unscented detergent and no air fresheners. I'm sure your home smells lovely "au naturel!" Just something to consider. :) Thank you again!

Our family was stopping through the UP on our way to Wisconsin and after a sub par rental the week before this home was exactly what we needed. It was exactly how it shows in pictures (maybe even bigger and better!). My kids and I were so happy and comfortable to land here for 24 hours...

Wonderful Winter Get-Away!
This property was perfect for our family of 6 children - college age to elementary school. We had plenty of room to be together or separate in different groups in different places in the cabin. The location was convenient for all of the winter hiking activities that we did. The waterfalls were amazing! We did not snowmobile, so I can't comment on that, however, there were several properties nearby that had snowmobiles. The cabin was very clean when we arrived and toasty warm! The few Christmas decorations made it feel cozy and festive. The whole cabin had a very comfortable feel to it. We very easily were able to stay at the property all day and hang out reading and playing games - it felt like a home. The kitchen was easy to work with and we could fit 8 at the dining table. This is the property we would choose for our next vacation to the U.P. ! Thank you!
