We loved this quiet little cabin in the woods! A perfect getaway and base of operations for getting to see the beautiful Keweenaw Peninsula. The cabin is quiet, clean, and very comfortable. We arrived early and met it's wonderfully welcoming owners. We would HIGHLY recommend this place!

We had a 10 out of 10 experience with our 6 night stay! We were allowed an earlier check in the with great communication with the hostess. The place was immaculate, cozy, excellent WiFi, great outdoor space. Private which we avidly loved. We grilled out a couple nights, had a bonfire, cooked smores (complimentary by the hostess) We will be back in the spring 2026 Thanks again Helen. You were so wonderful to work with. Wish you all the best!
