I had mentioned this after our last stay there needs to be a wagon handy for hauling wood, blankets, flashlights & adult beverages to the lake’s edge for a picnic or bonfire.When we were loading the car to leave (just before 11:00), housekeeping staff (actually a young girl) reminded us that they needed to get in to set up for the next guests. We KNEW checkout time & were on it. No need for the pushAgain, we marveled at your perfect setting & lovely rental.

Cabin@Sunset Place is truly exceptional. Forget the magnificent view of Lake Superior (although we couldn't get enough of it) as this cabin is spacious, well-appointed, with all the features and style that one would expect. The amenities everything a visitor would need and Michael has thought of everything – including all the fixings for s’mores! Unfortunately, it was too windy to enjoy a campfire on the beach. We originally booked the cabin for three nights and are so happy we were able to extend our stay one additional day…it was well worth it. We are already thinking of our next trip to the UP and would definitely stay here again. Communications with Michael were prompt and thorough. Five Stars! Thank you.

Our family stayed in this beautiful log home for a week. The home itself fits seamlessly in its surroundings and the view of Lake Superior was superb. The access to the beach allowed beautiful kayaking opportunities as well as beach fires in wonderful Adirondack chairs to relax watching stunning sunsets followed by dark skies, shooting stars and a surprise northern lights show. The accommodations are wonderful with the best well thought out amenities we’ve ever experienced; spices, oils, tools for cooking and mixing cocktails. The list could go on and on but I think you get the picture. A great place to base out of while exploring the beautiful pinnensula. Thanks Mike for your great place!

The stay was AMAZING. Being right on Lake Superior, even in the dead of winter, was breathtaking, and the house is the perfect get away for a group of friends. Highly recommend!

We had the best weekend at this property! It was absolutely beautiful, both the cabin and the view. It was very clean and well cared for. The check in directions were super simple and the host was great with communication. This house was also the most stocked and prepared property I have ever stayed at. I don’t expect anything when staying at a rental but this house had everything you could think of that you might need! We were so sad to leave and can’t wait to go back!

I cannot say enough great things about our stay at this home. Host was great about communications ahead of the trip. We had a welcome basket of s’more supplies waiting for us, which our kids promptly devoured. House was spacious and clean. Kitchen was well stocked with foil, wraps, baggies, and needed spices. Coffee machine was stocked with initial supply of coffee, and the kitchen utensils were high quality. Two pro tips – Turn on Wi-Fi calling on your phone if you have no service. Grab a bag of ice in town and place it in the icemaker in the freezer. I’m not sure when we will be back to the Keweenaw again, but if we do we will 100% stay at this property.

Phenomenal property and host! We spent 9 weeks here from Feb-April, and believe it or not it was a dream winter stay! Lake Superior is a woman of so many faces, and to see her from deep winter through her Spring thaw was so incredible. This log cabin was so well equipped, and so comfortable for this amazing adventure. Highlights were warm fires in the stunning fireplace and walks on the lake in the snow or sand. Great neighbors. All around fantastic! Thanks Michael!

Beautiful and Peaceful Lake Superior Property

Property has EVERYTHING you could possibly need and more including, and best of all, a beautiful beach and sunsets! Location was great. Very close to Houghton and Hancock but also convenient for exploring other areas of the Keweenaw Peninsula including Copper Harbor and the Porcupine Mountains.
