We love staying at this property. It’s right on the lake and has everything you need. The owners live next door and if you need anything or have questions they are happy to help.

The house was great. Clean, with lots of amenities and right on the water. Very nice large dock to fish off. The hosts were great and very prompt to answer any questions we had. Lots to see around the area and great restaurants. Bed was comfortable and the shower was nice as well. Definitely recommend.

This home was a little gem for our family, it offered the perfect get away. It was quiet, beautiful sunsets. Our kids loved fishing of the doc. The location was great! The hosts were sweet and easy to communicate with. We are looking forward to next summer already.

Toured Houghton to Eagle River to Cooper Harbor and places in between. This home on the lake was the perfect place to stay while enjoying the fall colors.

Beautiful home on a beautiful lake. The kitchen is large with lots of counter space. The bathroom is also spacious, especially that walk in shower! All the beds were comfy too. There is a very nice secluded beach only a short drive away (White City).

We loved our stay at this property! Very nice place, ultra comfortable and nice and quiet. Timm and Becky are great hosts and they provide everything you could need. The location was ideal for the adventures we had planned and close enough to restaurants and businesses for convenience. We highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit this area of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula!!

We stayed here during the fall color tour that we as a family of 3 take every year to the U.P. This place is awesome! It’s cozy, clean and it really was a home away from home.The drive around the lake may take a little time, but relax and enjoy the scenery because this place is worth it.

We came to town for a wedding, and thought we'd rent a home versus a hotel room. Very nice home, very clean and you can't beat the lake view. The owner Timm was very accommodating as well.

My best friend and I needed a quick weekend getaway, it was just what we needed. We even stayed an extra night and they were so swift to accommodate our request. Kayaks were great, lake was great. We’ll be back!

Inside of the cabin was beautiful and spacious. Everything we needed was there. Really enjoyed kayaking. Wish they would have been more communicative, they did not reach out until the day before our stay which made me nervous
