Sleeps 20+!!! Pet Friendly! 4 Bedrooms + Bonus Room + Bunk House. 40 Acres!

I purchased this unusual "enclave" (try to find right angles in the house, there aren't many) in December 2023 and since have added over $90,000 in renovations and furniture, including a new bathroom, outdoor grille, 4 picnic tables, beds and sheets, furnace, washer, range, 3 TVs (biggest one is 80"!), kitchen utensils, sectional couch, wall hangings. Almost every furnishing in the house is brand new except the cool old stuff on the walls.

We can sleep 20 on beds and one futon. You could squeeze 4 more on the sectional couch and blow up mattress for 24 total. Plenty of extra blankets and pillows in the cabin.

NEW AS OF MAY 2025: POOL TABLE ROOM OFF THE GARAGE IS COMPLETE! WOOD BURNING STOVE FOR WINTER USE!

Please read details to make sure your party is comfortable with the sleeping arrangements - 3 beds are somewhat "open air" and 2 beds are in the Bunk House!

The house has 4 bedrooms, a bonus sleeping room downstairs which stays naturally cool in the summer, and a separate bunk house on the bluff that sleeps 3. Each of 4 bathrooms has either a shower or tub or both.

Bunk House has heat and electricity, microwave and fridge. Sink has SEASONAL (about May to October) water. NO TOILET SORRY!

There is 1 fireplace and 2 wood-burning stoves and all the free wood you need.

(Please ignore the extra 1/2 bath VRBO adds to the header above, multiple phone calls to them and they never fix what they say is a programming error on their part!)

WHAT'S CLOSE?

9 miles from skiing at Norway Mountain which isIS OPEN! The view is SPECTACULAR if you want to eat or just get a drink there.

20 miles to Pine Mountain golf and skiing and the world-class professional ski jump.

7 miles from one of the UP's first iron mines which you can tour seasonally. (https://ironmountainironmine.wixsite.com/ironmine)

4 miles to some pretty good pizza, wings and fish at Kraemers 3 Lakes if you don't feel like cooking. Self service beer fridge if Nick , the very nice owner, is cooking your order.

22 miles to gambling at the Island Resort and Casino.

OUTDOOR WEDDINGS: (We've already booked 2 for 2025!)

The front yard is a gentle bowl shape that is great for staging chairs/guests at a slight elevation so they can see the bride and groom. You are welcome to set up a gazebo/tents on the property. Lots of parking near the bunkhouse. In case of rain you could get a small group on the covered back porch.

And...you have 40 acres to roam including Hamilton Creek on the NW side of the property (just follow the red tiles I've laid down as a path.) There are many walking paths you can explore and you can't see any other properties from the house. There are 5 old farm implements and the vestiges of a 1920s era car on the grounds. No hunting please, my nice, protective neighbor just behind me will call me if he hears gunshots! Snowmobiling/dirt biking is fine but please download the free app REGRID to see exactly where my property lines are if you choose to roam!

And...I have Starlink Internet so knock yourself out and stream almost anything you want on the 3 new TVs or your own devices.

DOG(S) FRIENDLY AT NO EXTRA CHARGE!:

If you want to leave your pooches outside for a bit but are afraid they'll roam, there's a fenced in corral off the bunk house to keep them close. Max 3 dogs. Please keep them off couch and beds (if there is excessive hair on either my cleaners will charge me - and you - an extra $100!) Dyson vacuums and lint brushes provided if Fido jumps on them.

2 night minimum stay,
