Beautiful place in an amazing location! Great place for a base to go exploring around the peninsula, and to sit back and relax listening to the waves crash on the sandy beach. Awesome hosts, and will have to return at some point in the warmer months!

Cabin was the perfect cozy place for a winter getaway. It was great to come back to after enjoying all the snow and winter sports. The view of the lake was beautiful. We loved the wood fired sauna and stove. Beds were comfy. There were a fair amount of annoying big flies which was unexpected in January with subzero temps. Overall a great stay with everything we needed

Cute cabin on the beach. Perfect get away for anyone looking for a little lake therapy/wanting to be surrounded by the sounds of waves. The sunrise on the lake and sunsets over the pond were breathtaking. I recommend for anyone looking to explore the Keweenaw!

We had a great stay here. Perfect timing for the fall colors! House location is great for spending time by the water and on the beach they have but a little bit of a drive to places. Hour from copper harbor and half hour from Calument. For fall is was nice and quite at the house and beach. We would go back.

The cottage is very nice with large picture windows across the back facing Lake Superior. It's nice being on the leeward side of the Pennisula as it got pretty cold and snowy. This was easily remedied by putting a few logs in the cast iron fireplace. Very relaxing with a lot of privacy. You can walk over a mile in either direction on the fine sand beach. We will defiantly go back!!

Our cousins from Florida had never experienced Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and this cottage was the perfect “home base” for our trip. We had lovely weather that allowed us to keep the windows open and enjoy the sound of the waves on the beach. The sauna was used every night and is a great way to end each day. The hosts were extremely easy to work with and I can’t say enough about how welcoming their beach side cottage is. We hope we can be back to enjoy it again in the future.

We so enjoyed our stay. The property had everything we needed for a relaxing beachside getaway! A well stocked kitchen, comfy furnishings, books galore, board games, kayaks, beach chairs and the most beautiful stretch of sand in the Midwest!

Quiet, peaceful — just what I was looking for. The cabin has all the amenities I could hope for. I love being able to sit at the table and gaze at the lake from indoors in case the weather doesn’t allow going out on the beautiful deck. The host is immediately attentive to any needs without being at all intrusive. Lovely location and cabin.

We loved the cabin! The location is pretty remote, but so peaceful and quiet! Walking the beach and using the sauna- so relaxing! The adult bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs- which was the only downside for us older folks. Loved our stay!
