The house was freshly remodeled, but the neighborhood felt sketchy and a bit unsafe. As soon as we pulled up we noticed a man sitting in his running car playing loud music and just staring at us. The surrounding houses were in bad shape and there is no privacy in the front or back yards. We parked in the back even though there was a construction sign blocking the alley, which made us feel a little better. It also smelled like wet dog as soon as we walked in. I understand that it is pet friendly, but it wasnât the best welcome. So unfortunately, we would not recommend the Blue Jay.
As described! Safe neighborhood, nice access to Iron Range activities. We were here for biking and had the shuttle drop us in Marble and we biked back; next day biked past Embarrass and shuttled back. Perfect! Ate in two nights and it worked great. I canât overstate how clean it was. OhâŠI brought an air mattress because, well, sleeper sofa, but the mattress on the sleeper was great! Highly recommended
Alena & I are both from the Iron Range, we have travelled extensively throughout the USA as well as some more limited travel in the Caribbean and Europe. We love the vacation short term rental home option for our family. We know that options on the Iron Range can be limited so we wanted to give visitors another option.
