Great stay
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.

Absolutely gorgeous beach location!
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.

Cute cabin on the beach
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!

Awesome Stay
We looked forward to this trip the past year and it did not disappoint. The location and view is absolutely beautiful. We took full advantage of the sauna to lake plunge daily. The kids loved the beach/water and looking for turtles around the house. Other than food and drink basically everything you need is supplied. We only left 1 time to go into town for the farmers market on Friday afternoons. Great trip!

Peaceful
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.

Spectacular in every way
In late May, we had the beach to ourselves. The sauna and cold plunge into the Lake will be missed, as are the morning firings of the woodstove in the cabin while reading a great book. Location location location! Worth the additional expense for this humble farmer.

This is a truly beautiful property! The home was comfortable and well stocked. A somewhat secluded location perfectly situated on the shore. Communication with Todd was spectacular, very responsive. My only regret is that we didn’t use the sauna more, the post swim in Lake Superior is an experience. I look forward to retuning soon!

Trip to MTU
This was a great property for us and our 2 Tech kids. We were able to cook meals and had enough room in the living room/dining room. Beds were comfy. With the extremely mild winter we even walked the beach! There was a cleaning issue that we found due to the last renter's being inconsiderate but the owner was very attentive and had a cleaner come out to figure out the next steps. We hope to come back in the summer if we can.

The communication from booking to check out was amazing. The property was as described and the view phenomenal. From cool dips in Lake Superior, warming up in the sauna or traversing all the Keewenaw has to offer led to a fantastic family get away. This property is on my list to return to.

The online information was very accurate. But seeing it in person exceeded our expectations. It was a beautiful location and view. We would love to go back when the weather is warmer. We were there the second weekend in October and the colors were perfect, the sauna was a great way to warm up with a jump into Lake Superior. We explored McLain State Park, Tobacco Park, School Craft Park, and Canyon Falls on the way home. There aren't words for how beautiful it was to experience.

Relaxation by Lake Superior
Cute cottage with all that you need for a relaxing disconnect. Love hearing the waves and taking walks along the beach. We were visiting our son who goes to Mich Tech and he stayed with us for a couple of nights. It was fall so the leaves were turning and the drive to and from the cottage was beautiful.
