The cabin was cozy, cute and everything we needed. We saw waterfalls, hiked,Delaware mine, good food. Thimbleberry margaritas in Calumet and just plain relaxing. We didn't take advantage of the lake but it was nice to look at.
Beautiful cabin. It was very clean and comfortable. The owners were amazing! We will definitely stay there againagain!Everything we could possibly need was there.
We had a wonderful weekend filled with beautiful hiking, relaxing atmosphere on the lake, and delicious food. We also met Tom who gave us excellent local recommendations of places to visit. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality!
This place was amazing and the host are great people and let us know what to do around town and even let us know about some good spots to see definitely recommend it we will be back!
I highly recommend staying at this cabin! It's clean and a very nice spot just to relax by the lake awesome sunset views and star gazing from the chairs they have setup on the dock! My kids had a blast swimming every day and the hosts Tom and Kierstin are the best very friendly people and they made sure we had everything we needed and they even did some extra stuff for us that they didn't have too. Thank you both for the best vacation my family and I have had in years!
We enjoyed this cozy cabin on Portage Lake near Calumet. It was nice to have access to a boat for fishing and kayaks which we took advantage of. Good leaping off point to explore the rest of the Keweenaw Peninsula.
Kierstin and Tom have done a fantastic job remodeling this small cabin on their property on the lake. Great location, peaceful surroundings, and amazing hosts- what else can you ask for? Highly recommended!
Cabin is super clean, cute decor and very thoughtful in regards to what it has for guests to use. Felt very comfortable staying there. Owners are friendly and helpful if needed.
My dad and I stayed for 3 nights while visiting my son at Michigan Tech. It was a lovely, quiet area. The cabin was clean and I loved the old with new look. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom is very small but clean. The property was amazing to exercise my 1.5 yo chocolate lab. She was able to chase a ball up and down the lane and in the lake. We enjoyed our stay very much. One thing, bring soap. Otherwise, very well stocked.
This was the cleanest vrbo I've ever stayed in! It was spotless. Adorable back porch and a beautiful dock out on gorgeous water (with comfortable chairs to sit and enjoy the sunsets). A lot of cute touches like lights on the pier and a fairy garden. Loved the wood interior. Well appointed with all we needed. The dog had a great time too! Tom and Kierstin were delightful. Super friendly and had good suggestions on places to eat and things to see. Would love to come back!!
We loved the mix of old and new in this property. We didnât get to enjoy the relaxation since we used it as a home base for our wedding down the road, but we would definitely come back because it had everything we would need!
The owners were perfect hosts, helping us find activities that were exactly what we were looking for. When hanging out at the cabin, we enjoyed the lake, kayaking and relaxing campfires. The cabin was amazingly clean and had everything we needed. We couldnât have asked for a better location or hosts! Thank you, Kierstin and Tom!
Being from the area originally, and still have a family camp on Bootjack, Tom and Kierstin have the perfect place to stay. We were more than happy to settle in and enjoy the place. Highly recommend!
The hosts were amazing! They are very easy going, gave us great information about the area and things to do. The cabin itsself was very nice! Super clean and cozy it also has a great lake view! Everything was great. We definitely recommend for a relaxing vacation, we cannot say enough about this rental. Its a great choice for a UP adventure!
We enjoyed the cabin as a great home base while visiting family in the area. We had both extremes of hot and cold for temperatures during our week there, which left us grateful for the heaters, but wishing there was a second window AC unit in the master bedroom (with the only unit in the second bedroom). We otherwise found it very relaxing and thoroughly enjoyed the sunsets!
Our stay at the cabin was wonderful. Tom & Keirsten thought of everything! We used the lovely remodeled kitchen daily! It was nice to make a pot of coffee in the am! Bed was comfortable, living room very cozy, it was nice to be able to watch Netflix after a full day of sightseeing! Location was excellent we were able to visit, Houghton, Hancock, Calumet, Copper and Eagle Harbor! Cannot wait to come back!
Tom was born here, left for college and returned in 1995 with his wife, Kierstin, who was born and raised in Alaska. They each have their own businesses in the area along with the cabin rental.
We accept dogs. Plenty of room. Just ask they do biz on the road side, not the water/grassy side as it kills grass and always picked up after. Always keep them leashed or tethered as other dogs are in the area. Trees available for runners.
