About the host
Hosted by Frederick Jaehnig
Maria and I each served in the Air & Space Forces for over 20 years and we started Copper County Vacation Rentals with the main goal of providing our guests with clean, comfortable and relaxing adventures. As we return to the Keweenaw full-time we will continue to provide amazing lodging, but we will also look to enhance our experience packages.
Due to our military background we believe in 100% transparency and renting a home from a stranger can be intimidating. We are absolutely certain you will love staying with us and we encourage you to check out our numerous reviews online to make sure that is the case!

Why they chose this property
This Miner is tastefully decorated to pay tribute to the area's rich mining culture. The large parking area, and proximity to the famed Jack Steven Trail (across the street!) make it a great location for snowmobiling, offroading and accessing nature.
What makes this property unique
*Accidental Damage Protection - We know accidents happen and all bookings include a complimentary $3000 damage protection policy to cover the property and to help provide you peace of mind throughout your stay.
