The stay was amazing a bit confused and a few things check out time was not listed correctly on theVRBO app however, there was a time listed on the directions on how to use things in the house and appreciate the extra hour. Thank you also was unsure why we were charged the cleaning fee when we had to put things in the washer and get them started doesnât make sense and the expectation was to clean just should reevaluate that see posted photo.
Property was clean and spacious. We had 7 adults, 2 four years olds, and a small dog and felt very comfortable. The kitchen was large enough for a few adults to work in at the same time and we all slept well in the comfy beds
This home and location were perfect for our group! There were two couples and three singles (as well as a 6 month old) in our group. Everyone had their own room (the basement had a brand new queen bed)! We cooked most dinners at home and even grilled steaks.The location was ideal, a short few minutes to trail 3. We were close enough to downtown Houghton, where we could grab takeout at The Ambassador.Five star review from check in to check out! If youâre looking for a clean, comfortable and convenient location, this house is it!
First, Sandy was a wonderful host. Informative, communicative, and flexible. The house is clean with lots of supplies. Great location,. Great views. Comfortable beds. We will definitely be back.
We came up for graduation and have stayed in many VRBO properties and this was my favorite! Location is a huge factor- so beautiful and quiet-and the interior is so cute. Very cozyđ Thanks Sandy!
The view of Portage Canal was spectacular and the proximity to Michigan Tech and area attractions for hiking and sightseeing were perfect. Great communication with host.
We stayed for a long weekend, and it ended up being exactly that. Although the communication with owners was decent and the house was nice, a lot happened. We came mainly for the location to ORV trails, and that was truly convenient. We were asked to keep all windows closed for window washers to come, which was understandable. However they never came, and it created a very hot house (no ac) to come back to. Kitchen was big for multiple families, but did not have enough serving bowls & cooking utensils for a large group. Beds are all King size, but they are cheap frames that barely stay together. One morning we woke up to a giant pile of poop on the lower screened porch. We took care of it, but it was blamed on the sons dog or window washer's dog. We also had severe rain while we stayed and we had a flooded floor (through the window) in the upper bedroom facing the lake. Maybe a fluke for all of this to happen in one weekend? You decide, but I prefer to have honest & transparent reviews.
We only stayed for a short visit but wished it were longer so we could have gone to the beach across the road. There was plenty if room for everyone. Great location and fabulous view! We consider it for our next trip.
Quincy's Restaurant is right down the road from the
property, they have one of the best deep dish pizzas we've
ever tasted!
The house is big so bring some people with you!
Go to the Delaware Mine Tour.. it's underground!
This was a great location for getting to the Houghton/Hancock area for bars/restaurants and still seeing the rest of the Keweenaw. There was a great beach around the corner with grills and tables. The house itself was very spacious. The kitchen and dining space were well sized for preparing meals together. Our only complaint is that the house was lacking in basic items such as trash bags, kleenex, enough toilet paper for the week, and hand soap. Otherwise, there were plenty of towels, kitchen items etc. Overall, we had a great week.
The property was as advertised and the owners easy to work with. No significant problems. It's close enough to Houghton to have access to anything we needed but up in the woods and a beautiful location.
Great stay during Graduation weekend! Location was good and had beautiful views. Kitchen had all we needed to cook dinners and living area gave us plenty of room to hang out. Beds were very comfy! Be aware that there are no closets in any of the bedrooms. Good water pressure in the showers. Had an small issue with cleanliness in the kitchen but property manager was quick to respond and apologize. Overall good stay.
Property is amazing! House is well appointed. We did need some soap as there was nothing for the shower but there were ample towels, blow dryer and curling iron available. We rented the houses on the lower property as well as we were having a wedding and it was perfect. All close enough to walk to including the lake. Charlie was so easy to work with and accommodating. This place is a gem!
