Nice house in Wakefield
I had originally booked this house for 12 nights. I ended up staying for about 10 nights (my work trip was cut short). Overall it is a nice house. The owners are doing updates and it is on the way to being an excellent house to rent. Initially it was hard getting the information needed to access the house. With help from VRBO that got resolved. After that the owners were very responsive to questions via text message. It’s an old house. So no washer/dryer. Also many electrical outlets are two prongs. A minor inconvenience. I’d stay there again and recommend it to others.

Perfect for our needs!
We came to Wakefield for the hydroplane boat races and this house was prefect for our stay: a large kitchen, air conditioning, and close to the lake and town. We appreciated the many thoughtful touches that have been added to make stays pleasant.

Comfy and Relaxing
This was such a beautiful and comfortable home to stay in! I stayed for 4 nights and during the day ventured out to see some sights and just enjoy the UP. Mike is a great host and was so kind when I called him. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone and would stay again.

Small town charm
This is a cute house in the heart of a small town. It’s an older home that has been updated. Nice furniture, comfortable finishes and a nice sized kitchen that is well stocked. The owner is very responsive and strives to make the stay a good one. If you are coming to the western U.P., this is a good choice.

Great location
House is very clean and comfortable. Location was perfect for us to get together with family. Also centrally located to Bond Falls, Porcupine Mountains. Many local waterfalls nearby (Potawatomi, Rainbow, Gabbro etc). Black River Harbor is nearby too. We also enjoyed having a bar/restaurant within a close walking distance (best pizza ever!!)
