Lovely UP Getaway
The house was spacious and charming with an EXCELLENT view of the lake. We spent countless hours on the back porch staring at the water. We couldn't be happier with the house!!
Love this place
Great Views, Clean Home, Tons of stuff to do in the area. All around this home and its location made our vacation one we will remember!
Hoosier
Home is very run down. Front door is broken and unusable. Yard and landscaping has been neglected. Furniture is old, broken down and thread bare. Caretaker has stuffed foam rubber under couch cushions in an attempt to make it usable. There are 3 recliners but they are extremely old and uncomfortable. There is plywood under mattress in master bedroom and several layers of foam rubber on top of mattress. Sheets were too small and did not fit bed. The beds on the main level seemed OK for kids but the awful musty smell made sleeping there impossible. When we arrived there were 3 garbage cans full of previous tennants trash and there was food left in refrigerator. Lake Superior is spectacular and the sandy beach was amazing. However by the time we left, the sandy beach was covered with good sized rocks due to a storm that caused some very powerful waves.
relaxation!!!!!
My husband and I really enjoyed our time at the house and was so relaxing....it was so beautiful to look out the bedroom sliding glass doors and see the lake and hear the waves, so tranquil....it would just make you fall asleep at night...we really missed it once we got back home...we are ready to come back already. Looking forward to doing this again next year if not before! Thanks for providing everything we needed!! It was close to everything and got to see alot of neat things like the different falls, glass bottom boat tour, which was amazing to see the shipwrecks under water.

This is just two steps from Paradise. The tranquility and beauty of Lake Superior is breath-taking.Imagine waking up to the most beautiful sunrise every morning, and at night the soft splashing of the waves on the shore, lull you to the most wonderful sleep, you can imagine.
This is not just a vacation resort, it is a place for all seasons, an epitiom of perfect relaxation.

10/25-27/02: This is a great place to stay! You can see the beautiful color of the trees and the lake through the many windows. It was cold & snowy outside, but you are warm and cosy inside.
