Property was clean and spacious. We had 7 adults, 2 four years olds, and a small dog and felt very comfortable. The kitchen was large enough for a few adults to work in at the same time and we all slept well in the comfy beds

The stay was amazing a bit confused and a few things check out time was not listed correctly on theVRBO app however, there was a time listed on the directions on how to use things in the house and appreciate the extra hour. Thank you also was unsure why we were charged the cleaning fee when we had to put things in the washer and get them started doesn’t make sense and the expectation was to clean just should reevaluate that see posted photo.

Epic Snowmobiling Location

This home and location were perfect for our group! There were two couples and three singles (as well as a 6 month old) in our group. Everyone had their own room (the basement had a brand new queen bed)! We cooked most dinners at home and even grilled steaks.The location was ideal, a short few minutes to trail 3. We were close enough to downtown Houghton, where we could grab takeout at The Ambassador.Five star review from check in to check out! If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable and convenient location, this house is it!

Great house for visiting MTU

Great stay during Graduation weekend! Location was good and had beautiful views. Kitchen had all we needed to cook dinners and living area gave us plenty of room to hang out. Beds were very comfy! Be aware that there are no closets in any of the bedrooms. Good water pressure in the showers. Had an small issue with cleanliness in the kitchen but property manager was quick to respond and apologize. Overall good stay.

What a great property in the woods overlooking the portage. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed for the weekend. Charles was very responsive to any questions. Our stay was in the winter and it was beautiful. I can't imagine how nice it would be in the summer.

Family wedding

Property is amazing! House is well appointed. We did need some soap as there was nothing for the shower but there were ample towels, blow dryer and curling iron available. We rented the houses on the lower property as well as we were having a wedding and it was perfect. All close enough to walk to including the lake. Charlie was so easy to work with and accommodating. This place is a gem!
