Wow! Pristine residence with beautiful views, great location, and it has everything you'd need. I never use a rental's tub, but this place was so well kept I used the soaker tub four times! This home is even better in person than the pictures show. We will definitely be back! Host was wonderful to work with!

An absolutely wonderful house! House decor and design elements are beautiful while still creating an extremely welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. Location is excellent as well, walking distance from shops and restaurants and you can watch the sun come up over Lake Superior from the front porch. Will absolutely be keeping this house on the list for a return visit in the future!!

Was a great trip. Good location and the place was ideal for two couples that are willing to share the one large bathroom. The home was stocked with all the essentials, including good coffee, beach towels, etc., which made our stay very convenient. Susan was very responsive before and during the stay.

The home was exactly as pictured. It was very clean, and stocked incredibly well!! We loved starting the mornings with our coffee around the fire table in the back. Downtown was a short walk away and the beach was a 5 minute car ride. We loved everything about the house. A second shower would have been a bonus, but we didn’t have a problem making it work with one. We will definitely stay here again!

Loved our time in Marquette!

I cannot say enough good things about this property. It is even better than it looked in the photos! The house is completely charming, clean, well-stocked with everything you need. And the VIEW! We loved being able to see the lake out the giant windows. The house does sit near a busy road, but we loved the fact that we got such gorgeous views while still being right near downtown. We walked to restaurants, stores and coffee shops, and thought the area was lovely. We stayed with two of our teenage children and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Especially enjoyed having access to the washer and dryer since we had been traveling for a week prior to arrival and needed to do some laundry. Susan left us some delicious pastries upon arrival, which were much appreciated. Very, very happy with our choice to book her place!
