Our group stayed at the Old Vic for our annual great Bear Chase ski marathon weekend. We have stayed in many houses over the years, but this was by far our favorite. The old Vic is charming! The home is extremely comfortable, clean, inviting, and very interesting. It has an old world charm to it. We loved the location as well. Mary was an excellent host. She communicated extremely well. We had a treat of cookies and some fruit on the counter when we arrived. Everything was simply perfect and amazing. We also enjoyed the sauna as well as plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for the group. We would definitely choose to stay here again and highly recommend this beautiful home.

Our son was getting married in Calumet and this very large home was just perfect “base-camp” for our immediate family traveling into town. We could not have been more happy with the Old Vic. The owners/host have thought of everything. Wish we just had a bit more time to relax and enjoy everything this home had to offer. If we are ever back in the Hancock area, we will definitely stay here again.

This property was a perfect fit for our family of 10 which included an infant. The house was beautiful, well equiped, spotless and truthfully the best VRBO experience we have had. We hope we can stay here again. It was so nice to all be in one house, yet still some private space.

Great house, Centrally located

We all enjoyed the beautiful home with all the sitting rooms and excellently furnished. Close to both downtown Hancock and Houghton - we walked to local restaurants and had a splendid time in the house. The extra parking lot is not really a usable option, but there was ample parking on street and in the driveway for our 5 vehicles.
