Perfect property for our family snowmobile adventure! Ample parking and excellent location!! Located close to all the amenities you need. About 1 block away from the trails. Would highly recommend!!!
The home was clean and comfortable. It had everything you need. The beds were comfortable and the linens and towels were high quality. The location was great for exploring the Keweenaw and all its beauty. We had a memorable vacation.
We loved our stay! This place was perfect for my family and my sister’s family. We had everything we needed and thought the house was very nice. We loved the location- perfect for anywhere we wanted to go! One of the nicest places we’ve rented on the Keweenaw!

House in very nice condition and very clean definitely as advertised.
This home is amazing. They have thought of every possible thing you might need. We stayed for winter carnival and it’s about 15 min from the bridge. It’s the perfect home base for exploring and enjoying the keewenaw.
