Ripley, the Quincy Mine, and the Houghton County airport. If the location wasn’t enough, you’ll love our place because it’s super cozy, and you get the whole house - so it’s private, too!

Cute & perfect home that’s very conveniently located for a visit to Michigan Tech / Houghton area. Definitely would stay here again! Only suggestion I’d have is to upgrade the keyed door lock to a coded lock.

Nice place, close to MTU campus

My wife and I had stayed here for Michigan Tech career fair. It's very close to the campus at a very reasonable price. House is small but perfect for a couple or a small group.

From the friendly and informative welcome book to the smores supplies, this rental feels like home. Everything about this cozy house was a lovely surprise! Clean (like bare feet and white socks clean!). Plenty of extra linens (fluffy towels!). Fully stocked kitchen (pots, pans, glass storage, ice cube trays, coffee, coffee filters, spices). Every detail has been well thought out. There are even extra toiletries in case you forgot something! The location is amazing! Walking distance to MTU and trails. There is never enough time to experience all the beauty and adventures of the area. We will be back!

Quiet cabin close to Houghton

This is a very well maintained and rustic cabin / small house in a quiet neighborhood just a mile or two from the bridge in Houghton. We could walk to the ski trails and had easy access to US-41 and downtown. The cabin was clean and very well cared for, had window A/C in the upstairs room, and had plenty of room for two. The neighborhood is full of trees and was quiet without being isolated. We would certainly stay again if we come back to Houghton.

Cool Miner's Cottage!

The location was perfect for our vacation in the UP! We loved the history of the house and the setting in the quiet neighborhood of Houghton. We didn't realize the sole bathroom was downstairs and the sole bedroom upstairs. We re-read the VRBO description and looked again at the pictures and feel that fact wasn't at all clear. Also, there wasn't any soap for the shower, and we were only furnished with one handtowel and two washcloths for our entire six-day stay.

Wonderful hosts, helpful and responsive, great location very close to the mich tech trails. Kitchen very well stocked, with good quality cookware. We really enjoyed using the fire ring for smores, and grilling our dinner on their backyard gas grill. Even though it is not far from MTU campus, the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Great base for adventures in the Copper Country

We thoroughly enjoyed our five nights here!The house is the ideal base for adventures in the Copper Country: a big open upstairs with two comfortable beds and plenty of room, a comfortable living room, a nicely equipped kitchen, and a wonderful patio with a great gas grill. The bathroom is about as good as can be in an older house like this – small but functional.We were pleasantly surprised at how well supplied the kitchen was: all the necessities, but also coffee, ingredients for s’mores, and more. A great touch!Check-in was easy – a message from the owners with the lockbox code, and a key on the lockbox. The owners had prepared a very nice guide to the house and the area. The street was nice and quiet, but the location is just a few minutes’ drive (or a lovely half-hour walk) to downtown Houghton.

Ski, Bike, Ski

We had a great stay at the property. The house is exactly what is described and located in a great location. We skied from the nearby trailhead and snow shoed from the house. We also downhill skied at Mt Ripley and skied and fat tire biked in Calumet. The house has a ski bench in the garage and you can store bikes there as well. Kitchen is well supplied and we made all our dinners at the house. We really enjoyed our stay. also, as a Lake Superior sailor I enjoyed the nautical charts on the walls!

Great stay in Houghton

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was the perfect size place for a family of three and located right near downtown Houghton. The guest book had great suggestions for restaurants and fun places to go with children. We highly recommend pizza at the Ambassador and visiting the Chutes and Ladders Park.

Great location!

While it may not have privacy for parents if staying with kids, the property is charming. A historic home i imagine from the mining era. It had everything we needed to host our son and his friends for a Resurrection Sunday dinner and was only a block away! Short drive to downtown and walmart and onyl 15 minutes from the church in Dollar Bay we went to. Will definitely stay again if theyll have us!

Quaint and close to Tech trails

It was a nice place but we only slept there . We were visiting our son and had friends staying elsewhere and that is where we spent the majority of our time. There is only one bathroom and it is located on the lower level as far away from the upstairs bedroom as you can get. It was not an issue for us, but I can see how it would be for anyone who uses the bathroom at night. The back yard is inviting if you have accommodating weather and the trails are outside your back door. Very convenient. There was only one hand towel for the bathroom. I suggest having the same number as wash cloths and bath towels. It was nice to have coffee and breakfast/energy bars. We did use those. Thank you. I would say based on VRBOs we have stayed at previously in the area, this one may be a bit overpriced.

Perfect little vacation house

This was a great home base for our visit to Houghton and the Keweenaw Peninsula. Very simple but had everything we needed. One thing to note: the bathroom is small with a small shower (just want to warn anyone very tall or otherwise large). It was nice to be able to have more space than a hotel room for our stay, to be able to cook some meals for ourselves and to have a place close by to come back to for our toddler's naps.
