Cozy home minutes from Porcupine Mountains and Lake Superior

Come enjoy year-round fun in our newly updated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home situated on 4 acres. A large yard and driveway provide adequate parking space for trailers. We welcome well-mannered, housebroken dogs! An outdoor fire pit with seating is provided in the summer months. Within the home, you will find a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, crockpot, coffee pot/K-cup, and dishwasher. Cups, plates/bowls, and utensils are provided. There is a washer and dryer in the house for use. The home has 2 queen beds and 2 twin beds. Bed linens and towels are provided. There is a dining table that seats 6. The spacious living room has a couch, loveseat, chaise lounge, and recliner. WIFI, Amazon Firestick, Roku TV, and a DVD player are provided. At just 3 miles from the Porcupine Mountains, our location is the perfect distance for allowing you to enjoy some of the beauties Upper Michigan has to offer. In the winter, hit the slopes at the Porcupine Mountains Ski Area downhill skiing/snowboarding, XC skiing, and snowshoeing. If you prefer your skis to have motors, access snowmobile Trail #1 right from the driveway. Summer is the perfect time to explore the biking trails at the ski hill or take a hike and view the many waterfalls in the area. With public beach access less than 1/4 mile from the home, a short walk could lead to spending the day playing in the water, searching for agates, or relaxing to the sound of waves. While you wind down for the evening, take the hassle out of making dinner and grab a pizza from the Porcupine Mountains Outpost. They have delicious ice cream for dessert too or enjoy making s'mores around the outdoor fire pit back at the house. Don't forget to try your hand at Yooperlite hunting at dusk. Whatever you choose-Adventure Awaits! We hope you make many lifetime memories!

The home was very clean and well equipped for our stay. It is tastefully decorated and has comfortable furniture and beds. The home has a great location for visiting the Porcupine Mountains being just minutes from park entrance. The owners have a binder of helpful information, restaurants and suggested attractions. The kitchen has everything you could need (Crock Pot, pans, dishes, etc.), Wi-fi worked great, and check-in was easy. We would stay again.

Accommodating host

Clean and spacious accommodations close enough to Lake Superior to hear the waves and just outside Porcupine Mountains State Park. Host promptly replied to all inquiries. Pleasantly surprised by small things such as soaps and shampoos that made things more convenient.

Lovely porcupine mtn property!

We could not have asked for a better vrbo experience and stay! The house was very clean and comfortable and check in/out was a very easy. The house is about 5 min from the porcupine mountains which made for quick trail access everyday. The owners put together a lovely and helpful binder w local information and maps. We would definitely stay here again and would 10/10 recommend to anyone else looking for a place to stay in the area.

Absolutely perfect

We travel to the UP for a large family reunion in Ontonagon and we stayed at Erin ‘s place for the week with our dog. Everything was picture perfect couldn’t have asked for better accommodations. This was the absolute best space for our family and dog and Erin was so accommodating. Would recommend this place for anyone needing to stay in the UP and we will definitely make it our go to for future reunions

Worth a return trip

After 50+ years married, my wife and I still enjoy being together away from home and seeing beautiful places. This property was comfortable, well-equipped. and very private. Plenty of space for many more than two old fogeys. Very close to the state park. Our only complaint was that it rained hard every day during our stay. If we decide to return to the area, we would enjoy staying here again.

The house very spacious for the 6 of us. Well stocked. Communications was fast and resolved issues. One thing I would recommend, BRING FANS! (a few) While there IS an air conditioning unit in the living area, it doesn't make the bedrooms and bathrooms cooler. We had fans blowing towards every bedroom and also an oscillating fan in the living room. Getting to places was pretty close. Restaurants and falls are wonderful!

Erin was an excellent host. Stayed in contact with us when we needed it. The property has a nice yard just enough off the road. The house was very nice and clean on our arrival. My mother(78)and i are rouckhounds and my father and boyfriend put up with our rockhounding shenanigans. They all enjoyed their stay. I would definitely recommend this property.

Family trip

This is the second time we have stayed at this property, and we really like it. Though it may be dated, it is well-maintained and spotless. It has all the amenities, and the large private yard is perfect for our dog. It is also in a prime location near the Porcupine Mountains and Lake Superior fishing.

We only stayed 2 nights, but the location fit our needs as we wanted to explore the Porcupine Mt. State Park. We used the kitchen for a cold breakfast and stored our picnic supplies in the fridge. We did not do any cooking but ir looked like the kitchen was well stocked if one wanted to do so. Great place to stay
