Our family stayed here for two nights over the holidays. This is a very clean and cozy home within a short walking distance to restaurants. Great host, home and location.
We have stayed here before, which is the reason we came back. Great location to the event we were attending. Walking distance to stores and restaurants. Host is very responsive. We enjoyed our stay.
The house was very clean and comfortable. The location is great for all of the area activities. Lisa was very responsive and helpful. We will stay here again if we are back in the area.
It was clean and was in a great location. Very clear instructions from the hosts. We loved the fire pit for s’mores and ate outside a few times which was nice.
Fantastic place to stay. Large, clean, beautifully updated home that felt very spacious, even for a group of 10. Located on the main road with direct access to the walking/bike path made for easy access to the stores, pictured rocks tour ferry dock, grand island ferry dock, etc. Highly recommend!

Awesome property, beautiful and spacious interior with walking distance to all.
Loved our stay here! Amazing house, lots of room, clean, in town, easy check in. Excellent VRBO. Looking forward to coming back for a longer stay next time!
A nicely appointed home, in a great location, convenient for exploring all the beauty the area has to offer. We visited all the local shops in Munising, saw many waterfalls, lighthouses, and the Pictured Rocks, visited Marquette, Tahqhamenon Falls, and picked up rocks at Christmas and Grand Marais beaches. A great time, snd hope to visit again in the future.

The rooms and living areas were larger than we expected. The convenience of downtown made driving unnecessary. The inside was spotless and the view from the windows made it comfortable and relaxing.
So many things we loved about this home! The location, amenities, well equipped kitchen, cleanliness, spacious....
We will definitely choose this property next time we visit the area!

We stayed here for our annual trip and it was perfect. Plenty of beds for everyone, wonderful linens and pillows, lots of space to hang out and play games. Excellent communication from the property owner. Walking distance to the boat cruise and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.
