Country Heaven

The house was close enough to Houghton (8 minutes to downtown) for all the great restaurants and shops, but far enough away where you are surrounded by woods and secluded. Perfect location to get away and enjoy nature.

Cozy Get-a-way

Our whole family of 16, ages 1 through 70, enjoyed staying at this unique log cabin. So many fun spaces in the house to play and talk. Close to town so grocery shopping was quick and easy. So many fun places to go. We just enjoyed every day of the week and the host was so prompt when we had questions.

Bruce and Sarah have a lovely home, it felt like our own! The place is very clean and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen was stocked well (minus our own groceries) and there were plenty of towels too for our group of 14. WiFi was fast and check in was a breeze. Thank you - Would love to stay here again!!!

Great Stay at Coles Creek

Nice log home with short drive to Houghton and Hancock, with McClain State Park beach being about 20 min drive. Creek on property has many small brook trout but did catch a 10". We also visited Porcupine Mountains, Calumet, Hungarian Falls, and Copper Harbor. Jogged on the path along canal each morning. The property owner was great to work with. Overall a great property and good location for exploring the peninsula..
