We like to stay out in the country so this place is great. I like being able to walk the GSD on the gravel road with little traffic. We have stayed here in the past and probably will in the future. TIM

Amazing Fall Experience
We stayed here as our base location while we hike around the Porcupine Mountains as well as visit Copper Harbor. The place is beautiful, especially with the Fall Foliage. We had everything we need. The washer/dryer, dishwasher, and fast wifi are a huge plus for us. We would definitely want to stay again.

Cozy cabin
Not fancy but very comfy and cozy. Typical up-north cabin. It rained and snowed most of the weekend we were there, but we were comfortable and warm watching Netflix and making meals. Hosts were very responsive and helpful. Kitchen is well stocked, and they have lots games and plenty of blankets, etc. Would definitely come back.

Spent 3 nights at Sandy Hollow. They supply everything you could possibly need for a great stay. We were gone exploring most of the time so we really weren’t there a lot. Quiet, on the lake and perfect for a relaxing getaway.
