Good Value

This is a nice, affordable unit. Very clean and comfortable! The views are not majestic, but you won't have to travel far! The nearest laundry, despite what Google tells you, is in Ontonagon. So, grab your laundry, put it in the machine, and head to Roxey's while the wash is going.

Great location and very clean

Recently updated property and very clean. Great location for access to the UP trail system and the driveway is big enough to park your snowmobile or ATV trailer.

Location!

My sister and I stayed here for our annual getaway. We wanted to explore the porcupine Mountain wilderness Park and it was the perfect location for this. The house was clean, A great layout and had plenty of room. Becca, The host was very prompt with questions we had for her. We cooked our meals in the house and had all the cookware and utensils we needed. We had bonfires and beach time (across the road), it was a wonderful trip!

Great for time in the Porkies

This house was a great place to stay while we were hiking in the Porkies. It was super convenient to the park. It was also clean and comfortable, including the bed we used. A great advantage for us since it was unusually hot while we were there, was a good central air system. We stayed very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking pots, etc and was the only house we rented in a multi-stop trip across the UP with a dishwasher. 1/2 bath was near bedrooms and tight, the full bath was at the other end of the house. Not super convenient but not a big deal for a short stay either. We arrived in Ontonagon a couple of hours early but were able to get in the house then. That was much appreciated. Would stay again.

30th Birthday Celebration Vacation

I took my two adult kids away for my son’s 30th to someplace he wanted to visit-Porcupine Mountains. This home is amazing in every way from the lovely outside deck to the inside cozy. We cooked together, had some drinks and just enjoyed being together. When Beeca said it’s close to the park, she want kidding! Lake of the Clouds is right down the road also. The place is away from Ontonagon but it’s a short 15 minute drive. I couldn’t have been happier with the rental and the communications I had with Becca the owner. I look forward to coming back here again !
