Great location and lots of things for the kids to do!

Cabin was nice and clean. Only thing I'd recommend to improve the experience was the downstairs bed was a little squeaky getting in and out of.

Absolutely gorgeous cabin and location! We walked in the chalet and our son said - “This feels like home!” All 3 of our kiddos enjoyed squeegeeing the shower.We thoroughly enjoyed kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, and seeing the box turtles. We could’ve stayed at the resort and not gone anywhere for the duration of our stay. We would love to return and stay longer!

Amazing Rental - A!

If you are looking for the perfect location in the Atlantic Mine/Houghton area we 100% recommend this property! Close proximity to Michigan Tech, trails, fishing, etc. Cabin was beautiful, clean, has everything you need for your stay (minus food, lol!), the property has fantastic trails for hiking, wildlife, and kayaks, paddle boards and canoe available, a small beach and great atmosphere. Will definitely book here again!!! There are multiple cabins available along with a dining hall type building as well as picnic tables and large deck area and would be excellent to book for an event, wedding, family vacation, etc. Thank you to the owners, you have a great property!

Perfect Space for Gathering

The location was perfect for accessing MTU campus for Winter Carnival activities while also providing a great open space for late nights of board and cards games as well as movies. The kitchen had everything we needed. Definitely hope to return in the summer and enjoy the outdoors more!

Upper Peninsula Vacation

Great time! Cabin had everything you could need. The huge sliding glass door looking out to the lake was very nice. Just sitting on the huge porch, listening to the water and watching for wildlife was exactly the vacation we were looking for.

We booked this 4 night stay originally for just my wife & I as part of our two week upper peninsula vacation. When my daughter s family (of 5) asked if they could join us our host said there was room for air mattresses and they had a futon. We fit and we loved our Chalet by the lake! Our back porch was just steps from the lake, and what a beautiful place to sit and enjoy her morning coffee.I was pleasantly surprised by the beach, swim platform, and kayaks. It cooled off the week we were there, but it was still used by our grandkids.The place was very clean, had all the amenities listed, a great fire pit, and had a building right next-door that had a nice bathroom since we had seven people sharing one bathroom in the chalet. The building had a nice shower too.An unexpected bonus was the hiking on the property. The trails were just beautiful.Our host responded quickly to every question. I highly, highly recommend this host and our cabin.

Great Stay!

The cabin was clean and tidy with all of the usual things you would need in the kitchen and bathrooms. I really appreciated the good internet and wifi signal in the cabin. The hosts were very easy to work with and I have NEVER had a smoother checkin and checkout experience. I appreciated the binder with information and the snowmobile map on the fridge with the best way to get to the trails.Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Carl & Michelle Treankler

Host profile image
The story begins with my husband's son attending Michigan Tech. After his first year he wanted to live off campus. Advising him to find a property that he could fix up and then possibly sell after he graduated, Carl's son began the hunt; but with many dead ends. When we told the realtor to open it up to see what was out there, this magnificent property came to light. Sitting on 220 acres, with a 10 acre lake, it was 'love' at first site. My husband purchased the property and 3 months later brainstormed the idea of starting an outdoor bible camp for high school kids, church groups, or sport teams. Already being a big supporter to Camp Luther, in Three Lakes, WI, Carl started the plan to make this area their base camp. With an old barn that hunters used stayed in, an old homestead, a 600 square foot cabin, and a double wide home residing on the property, it became clear there was much work to be done. Having the vision of creating something great, we began the construction of a pavilion, addition to cabin, and complete gut out of the barn. With these projects done, new ones continue to begin in transforming the property into a premiere camp for kids. Future projects consist of a welcome center, and additional camp sites, 3 more cabins.
The barn stands alone as it is a quarter mile away from the camp. Looking out from the upper deck on the barn, you can enjoy watching the geese fly in on the pond that also lies on the property. A great spot to watch some wildlife. The newly renovated double wide has been turned into a Love Palace Home, hence why we call it the LP and sits right on the private lake called Love Lake. The 2 newer built fish cabins (Walleye and Brook Trout) are tucked in a wooded area about 100 yards from the lake. The new rental, The Chalet is our previous house that was remodeled into a beautiful, warm home that will serve as a residence to our Camp Director in the summer months.

Bookings are on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE basis!

What makes this property unique

6 Miles from North Entry to the Canal and Lake Superior
5 Miles from Snowmobile/ATV Trails (Can ride shoulder of road for trails)

The Renters Beach! During the summer months when we host campers for the Keweenaw Base Camp, this beach will serve as our renters only beach on the lake. While the campers will enjoy the beach by pavilion, our renters can enjoy a private, sand beach with park style grills, picnic tables, and their own paddle boards/kayaks for rent.
