"Clean room. Love the location "

"I almost hesitate to give this a five-star review, because I don’t want the secret to get out – this is the best place to stay in Houghton! Our son is a student at MTU, so we are in the area numerous times a year. We have stayed at various other properties (both Airbnb’s and other hotels), but Independence Stay has become our go-to spot. The property is always immaculately clean, modern, and well-maintained. The staff is friendly. The rooms are comfortable, with just enough kitchen supplies...

"Clean and cozy, owner was great to work with!"

"Rooms were quiet and having bathrooms for each room is amazing for big/extended families."

"Shower head needs cleaned or replaced.a few light bulbs needed replaced. Over all a nice place to stay."

"Clean and cozy. Tim and Jen were very nice. Rustic. Quiet, away from town. Perfect get away. Close to several water falls. Good base camp for the Porkies and the Keweenaw Peninsula. "

"Great location where you can walk to downtown Houghton and Hancock easily. Multiple bars and restaurants less than a mile away. Clean, comfortable rooms with great beds and great kitchen set up. Great views in the rooms that open to the deck. The available services including laundry, gym and sauna are great. "

"We had a wonderful time - enjoyed the beach and the property! The master bed was very comfortable and we found everything we needed in the kitchen. Would stay again if we were in the area. "
