Very nice house with a great location that is centrally available to many different adventures in the area yet the house itself offers a little seclusion from close neighbors and provides for a quiet restful vacation. Very clean and provided everything that we needed.

Felt like an old friend right away. Very accommodating. Stayed for a few days of fishing on little bay and it was perfect. Right down the road from the boat launch. Place was clean and well stocked. Very peaceful.

Very nice home that met our needs on our fishing trip. Very clean, new appliances, excellent location for fishing trip but yet close to Escanaba up to Rapid River for those that are just wanting to see the area. Definitely would stay again!
