We had an absolutely great time at dock side resort. The views are stunning, the deer were plentiful, peaceful, cozy cabin far away from the hustle and bustle of any city. We couldn’t have asked for a better host, Sherry is wonderful, helpful and makes you feel like family! We would definitely stay here again!

Tracy's cottage was a clean comfortable place in a very beautiful setting. It was a convenient location for many beautiful waterfalls and for the day trips we wanted to take. The little touches left for us were greatly appreciated. We throughly enjoyed our 40th anniversary trip.

on Lake Superior-Clubhouse Cottage-Cozy Hideaway

LindsayRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We stayed for a weekend ski trip to Mt Bohemia. It was a short (40 minute drive) which was perfect for decompressing after a long day on the hill. We loved the beautiful views of Lake Superior! The cottage was the perfect size for the two of us with all the kitchen amenities we needed to cook all our meals. It was warm, cozy, and very relaxing. Thank for a great stay!

Simply Superior Cottage

KellyRating, 5 stars6 months ago

Great location right on the water. We watched the sunrise right out of the horizon every morning. Was a great place to cook, watch movies, read, rest and relax but was also close enough to go out for a day of exploring in Copper Harbor (hour away). Going to Copper Harbor in fall was amazing & the colors were beautiful the entire drive. 🍁 There are neighbors but we had no issues. Beach was basically empty the whole time so very private. We did some morning (sunrise) & evening (moon) yoga by the beach. Rooms & beds were comfortable, overall great place & we would stay again. I would stay here again.

Kayak Shack Vacation Cottage

LeanaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

It was my first time in the UP for the winter! Dave’s place was the perfect spot for our day trips around the Keweenaw peninsula. On our way to L’Anse it started snowing and Dave checked to make sure we made it and to let us know they were going to plow the driveway in the morning. We would definitely stay there again.

Great place for MTU graduation weekend. It was nice to be in the lake. The house was exceptionally clean. There was no expectation of Kari’s guests to be housekeepers too. Very easy check in and check out. Hope to stay here again for future events!

I am grateful to have stayed in such an amazing place, with my dog, Jax! The host was very responsive and instructions were clear and to the point. It is a very relaxing and quiet area as well, and my dog enjoyed drinking from Lake Superior with ease. Thank you for providing such an amazing place to stay, and I highly recommend others to stay in the area as well! Thank you!

Red Rocks: Unit 2 Lower Level

DawnRating, 5 stars6 months ago

My husband and I needed a last minute place to stay over the past weekend. We wanted to stay in the L’Anise area, since we have a friend that lives in the town, and this was the best option. The unit is clean, has an amazing view of Lake Superior and is very spacious. I was very impressed with the unit overall. I would gladly book again!

Waterfront House on Huron Bay (Lake Superior)

DebRating, 5 stars6 months ago

We loved staying at Kyle’s place! The host was responsive and provided clear instructions and suggestions. The house was very clean and spacious, and had everything we needed. There was plenty of comfortable seating - loved the porch and outdoor space. The mattress was super comfortable, which is important to my old bones after a day of hiking/exploring! We were only two people, but you could easily accommodate a large family or group and have plenty of room! We loved the remote waterfront location, it was so quiet and peaceful. We explored the Baraga County area (recommend the Lake and County tour), easily made day trips east to the Michigamme area and west to the Keweenaw and to Houghton for a MTU football game. We even got to see the Northern Lights right from the yard! It was a great time and we are already talking about coming back!

Houghton Canal Retreat

SusanRating, 5 stars2 months ago

I loved her cozy Airbnb! Felt like I was home 🏡 but a lot colder and way more snow 😊. Very very clean and had everything we needed to cook meals which is not always the case. PLENTY of sleeping room. It was just my daughter and I but wanted to check it out for the summer time and I will try to rent it again for then. Cheryl was super sweet and kind. We had an issue but she was very quick to respond and fix the situation. GREAT host! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!
