We enjoyed a two nite stay at this location. It was nice and clean and easy to access. The location next to the lighthouse was also unique. The only issue we had was that the bathroom soap was nearly empty and the heater did not put out a great deal of heat.We would stay here again if we return to the area.

Great Place to Stay

These cute and cozy little cabins were the prefect place to stay and a wonderful hub for adventures in the Keweenaw. The owners were so nice and made it easy to get ahold of them if there was any questions or concerns. The property had a lot to offer and is in such a great location. Eagle Harbor is such a wonderful little town.

First time in northern Michigan

This is a sweet little cabin that worked for us for 2 nights. The location was really great for us as we loved being close to the lighthouse and Lake Superior. We really enjoyed the small town feel and peacefulness of this area and it had some beautiful drives close by and some great hiking by Copper Harbor.

Great cabin. Well stocked with everything we needed. The washer/dryer attached to the cabin for the cleaners was being used during our stay and it was obnoxiously loud. Sounded like uneven loads in the washing machine. Thankfully we were hiking during the day. The location next to the lighthouse was wonderful.

Nice place

We enjoyed our stay. Only issue we had is that there was no place to sit inside or right outside the cabin to relax. Suggest replacing King bed with queen to allow for a couple of chairs.

Loved the location. Loved the little Cabin. Truly felt like home. We thought a more private beach area was available... And a private grill or place to grill. But it is what it is. The lighthouse location was beyond beautiful. The area was spectacular.

Beautiful oasis

Loved it so much. Small and wonderful. Loved its proximity to the lake and the lighthouse. Worked wonderfully for us. It was clean, safe, quiet, remote tho we were able to find Vegan treats at the Genny and in Houghton. And, weirdly, tho I'm fairly meticulous the cleaner noticed I'd left one of my favorite blankets behind and returned it to me (for a fee) which was kind.

It was a very cute quaint vintage cabin. Parking is an issue. It was very easy to find. It does not have air conditioning, which was not an issue for us. It comes with many fans to put around the room. It is a small space and has a lot of items in the small space which makes it feel even smaller unfortunately, it was not as clean as what we have been used to. Bathroom was extremely small and shower is extremely tight for a 5’10” 175 lb man.

Yes, you are correct — these are small, vintage cabins with space for only one parked car, and they are priced accordingly. I’m sorry to hear the cottage wasn’t cleaned to your expectations. If you had reached out during your stay, we would have been happy to send someone over right away to re-clean it for you. For the future, Eagle Harbor — Harbor View (the cottage closer to the Lake Superior views) is a bit larger and offers a separate bedroom along with a full kitchen, rather than just the coffee pot, microwave, and mini-fridge setup. I’m disappointed this stay wasn’t the right fit for you. You were wonderful guests, and you are always welcome to call our office before booking. We’re more than happy to walk through the details and help make sure you’re in the best space for what you’re looking for. Sincerely, Cara Owner, Freshwater Vacation Rentals
