Cozy getaway mins from Michigan Tech, Ski & Snowmobile trails & Lake Superior
Beautiful, 1100sf, remodeled home away from home with over 120ft x 20ft of winter TRAILER parking! Snowmobile trails are only a few short blocks (equal to 1 city block) away and are easily accessible from the house. You can ride your sled to the Hancock/Lake Linden trail. Most often there's snow on the roads. *(Please note in winter months parking is only in the driveway. No street parking) Boasts all the amenities; Central air and heating, 50" TV with Roku, Wifi, bluetooth speaker, comfortable beds and bedding, all new kitchen appliances. Along with the basics, the kitchen includes a microwave, airfryer, blender, hand mixer, toaster oven and electric griddle... everything you need to make a home-cooked meal. Enjoy coffee from the coffee bar, with a kuerig, traditional coffee pot or French press. An assortment of teas are also provided. Enter through the back HEATED porch with all you need to store your Winter gear. Plenty of wall hooks, 2 boot dryers/heaters, boot trays and helmet hangers. A perfect place for ski equipment as well. A bonus to be able to put on warm winter gear! The enclosed front porch is lined with windows, rattan furniture and a ceiling fan....perfect for morning coffee or a cocktail in the warmer months. A sunny day heats it nicely in the winter months. The two bedooms upstairs have very comfortable mattresses and bedding, luggage racks, dressers and the larger has a closet for hanging clothing. There is a queen murphy bed on the main level in the living area that pulls down for additional sleeping (the same comfortable mattress as the upstairs beds) A pack-n-play is available upon request. There are 2 full bathrooms, one upstairs with a shower, and one with a tub/shower downstairs. I should mention the water pressure is incredible!! Both bathrooms have shampoo, conditioner and body wash dispensers for your convenience. Towels, and wash cloths are also provided. The dining room seats 6 and a high chair is available upon request. All this and only minutes away from MTU (3.2 miles away), 1.5 miles to Downtown Houghton, 1.4 miles to Downtown Hancock, a few short blocks to Mount Ripley Ski Hill and the Hancock /Lake Linden Snowmobile Trail. Only 46 miles to Copper Harbor, 2.7 miles to the Quincy Mine (a great tour), 11 miles to McClain State Park (Lake Superior beach) and if you're lucky you'll experience the Northern lights from many places just minutes away. We hope you enjoy your stay! It's our goal to make every stay a memorable one. All the best, Jodi & David

Our stay in Jodi & David’s house was great! Clean, set up nice and had everything we needed. There is a lot to do and see in this part of MI and we would definitely stay here again.
We (2 couples) stayed here for a long weekend snowmobiling in the UP. It was the perfect home base for us! Location was great, close to the trail and to town to grab meals close by, and the house had enough parking for 2 trucks and trailers, even with massive snow mounds! Jodi was very responsive and helpful when we needed to shift our trip by one day as well which was very appreciated. I particularly liked the entryway with great storage for our snowmobile gear. Kept it warm, dry, and out of the way! The beds were also incredibly comfortable; nice to have after long days of riding. The kitchen had everything we needed more such as hot chocolate, granola bars and popcorn which was such a nice touch!All in all, everything was very clean and comfortable. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and hope we can the chance to. Thanks to the hosts!!

Ashley, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your kind words and we'd love to have you stay with us again. We hope you had an awesome time in Isle Royal! Gorgeous place!
Our stay in Hancock was perfect. The house was spotless. Amenities were great. Host was very friendly and communicated very well. House was very easy to get into with clear directions. It snowed the entire time we were there and while we were at graduation for our son, they came and plowed the driveway. There were even boot driers to use.. Beds were comfortable and had nice sheets. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

This is the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed! Perfect cozy spot for day trips up the Keweenaw Peninsula. The host/ess thought of everything to make us feel comfortable. The shower is small but is perfection with water flow and temperature. A great place to stay.

We are so glad you had a great stay Jeanne! Thank you for your lovely review. We hope you'll think of us and stay again in the future.
The place is awesome and the owner is really sweet I had asked for little extension and she gave me 2 additional hours ( what I asked for). The place is better than what I had imagined. I would stay here again if I visit the place
Perfect stay in this very well appointed home. Everything we could need was already here. Loved all the little touches. Already looking for an excuse to visit again.
Great location to use as a home base while we explored the area and spent time with our MTU Husky. Very clean and well maintained. Quiet neighborhood. Hosts were easy to work with and responsive.
This was our first VRBO stay, my wife and I were very happy with experience,,, won’t be our last.The information provided was accurate and overall great stay.Thank you,Frank

Thanks Frank,
We sure hope you'll stay with us again when you visit the area.
We have stayed at many Vrbo’s several places in the US and feel this was the top or best in class. It is very neat and clean and very nicely appointed. It was extremely well stocked. The beds and furniture and linens were all excellent. We would give this place our highest recommendation and congratulate the hosts on their high standards! We heard they worked very hard getting it ready to put on VRBO & their efforts definitely have paid off.

Thank you so much for your lovely words. We appreciate it immensely and hope you'll stay with us again.
We stayed here during our son's week at Michigan Teck Hockey Camp. This place and the host are amazing! Very quick and easy communication, amazing place and great location. The host is very punctual and friendly, the house was spotless and very well put together with all the amenities we needed. It is close enough to everything you want to do around there without having to be downtown. We will definitely stay here again!

Thank you Ryan! We sure hope to have you again next summer... and so appreciate you leaving the house in such great shape! Have a great rest of your summer!
The house is very pretty and comfortable. I liked having the back porch entrance to leave shoes and coats before coming inside. …and it’s very pleasant to sit on the front porch.Everything was super clean and the kitchen is well stocked. Communication with our hosts was always timely. We will be back for sure!

You were wonderful guests! We so appreciate your kind review. Hope to have you back soon!
What an adorable place! So impressed with the decor, welcome treats, newness, nice towels/linens/furniture, games, etc. So many extra touches! Many rentals have pretty pictures but the units are more tattered, but this one is deluxe and it’s clear the hosts have high standards and roll out the red carpet and take care of their guests through all the maintenance and details. Bravo!
