We were pleased with our accommodations and pleased it was so close to the beach. We had all the necessary items for a great stay. We visited with family who live in the area and had room to spread out a little. Enjoyed a visit outside in the beautiful weather. We would stay again!
This house was perfect for what we used it for. Close to the beach, close to Porcupine Mtns and other attractions. If we go back to that area, we would stay there again!
This house had a great location for us. Short walk to a great beach on Lake Superior. Short walk to Syl’s Cafe and easy drive to the Porcupine Mountains.
Perfect for us. Clean lovely home and very quiet neighborhood. Close to restaurants downtown recommend Syl’s and within walking distance of Lake Superior beach. Plenty of towels and other amenities. Would highly recommend and hope to return!!
We both loved our stay, but I think our cat was the one who enjoyed himself the most! Not only was this home cozy, accessible, and convenient, it was the perfect amount of adventure for our kitty. The backyard and surrounding neighborhood were fun for him to explore. This was our first getaway as a family and we could not have had a more positive experience! Would definitely recommend!

Really enjoyed our stay in this quaint older home. Only a couple of minute walk to the beach and close to everything in the cute village of Ontonagon. House had all of the amenities we needed and was pet friendly as well. Highly recommend.
Charming clean and cozy. This place is a sweet home we have stayed at more than once and will continue ! Love the location that is close to walking to town or to the beach. If you want a small town feel than this is the place for you.
Super cozy and well maintained... short walking distance to down town... i love to cook and the kitchen was Way better stocked with cookware than most rentalsrentals.... hope to be black soon
Great place for our UP adventure. Loved how close the house was to Lake Superior coastline, and the place served as a great ‘home-base’ during our activities and travels. We had 4 adults, so the bed situation was fine. Could’ve used AC during our stay given the heat, but it was peak summer. The downstairs toilet is a trip to behold. Consider this a 1.25 bathroom property :)
