About this property

House in Bessemer - 3 BR/1.5 Bathrooms

Our cozy miner's house is nestled right between the #2 Snowmobile/ATV and Iron Belle bicycle trails, and is less than a 15-minute drive to Big Powderhorn or Big Snow ski resorts. Mountain biking opportunities abound all over the area. Prefer waterfalls, beaches, or whitewater? Got that too. Reach Lake Superior in under 30 minutes. The smallies are always biting on the Gile Flowage, less then 20 minutes west. Choose your own escape!

Ready to make dinner? You will find everything you need in our comfortable-sized kitchen, including a variety of cookware, a coffeemaker, all staples, a vast array of spices, and refrigerator. An island provides extra counterspace and adds additional seating. The dining room table seats 6.

Sit around the fireplace on one of the two couches in the living room while you watch cable TV, or stream entertainment to your own devices using high-speed internet.

Re-charge for your next day in one of our bedrooms on the second floor: a master bedroom with a queen bed and walk-out balcony (when not snow covered), a second with two twins, and a third with a bunk bed for the kids. Supplemental electric baseboard heat will keep you toasty on cold winter nights.

The 1st floor bathroom has a walk-in tub/shower and a second 1/2 bath is conveniently located between the bedrooms. Linens and towels are provided.

Play in the woods and have easy access to shopping and restaurants in Ironwood, Hurley, and Bessemer. You'll love it here!

Rustic and Wonderful

Joe, your home was the perfect basecamp for our ski trip. It was super-centrally located and what I would call “rustic and wonderful”. The atmosphere was so welcoming. I would 100% come back the next time I'm in the area and would have no issues recommending Joe's home to others. It is simply perfect.

Character building ski patrolling with friends

A very welcoming, interesting, charming and cozy home. Comfortable for our group. Excellent directions and communication with the host. The home was warm, water pressure in the showers was excellent, no shortage of hot water for the five of us showering. Well equipped kitchen for all of our needs. Beds were comfortable. Everything was very clean. Wood burning fireplace was a welcome relaxing spot on this very cold weekend.I learned of the pet charge after booking. It is not unreasonable, less than boarding our precious pet. I believe that the nightly pet charge should be listed in the booking information.All told, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this host to anyone who wants to visit the area.Thank you for hosting us.

Ski 906 Week

We were a group of 3 guys on our annual ski week in the 906. Wanted a good location central to hills we had in the 2025 plan. We did Porkies, Whitecap, BRB and JCS while in Bessemer. This property was perfect. Easy to check in and check out. Very comfortable to relax after each day on the hill. Comfortable. Well equipped kitchen for meal prep. Great value for this price and it was just what we were looking for, We'll be back. Joe the host is super chill and communicates responsively. If you're looking for good, clean comfortable 3BR house in the middle of western UP hills - this is your place

Great proximity to ski hills.

We chose this house over one on a particular resort because we ski at more than one. It works well in that respect. It was on the edge of town, right in between Big Powderhorn and Snowriver. The house fit our needs perfectly. Host checked in after first night to make sure everything went well with our first night. Definitely recommend.

2 geezer couples up for a relaxing weekend of fall color, hikes, and hanging out. House was comfy cozy, nicely laid out, had everything we needed at an attractive price. In and out easily, good access. Very good communication with Joe. House has one double bed so one couple ended up on twin beds, not a problem for us, we knew going in. Bottom line, enjoyed our stay, house was great.

Perfect stay

From check-in to check-out, the stay was seamless. Communication with the host was simple and quick. The house was just as described and fit our needs perfectly. There were three adults and a dog on this stay. It had every plate, utensil, pot and pan and appliance we needed. There were a lot of the staples you might need, but forgot to bring, in the cupboards. The house was filled with lots of nice touches from a CD with a good selection of music, tv set-up, WiFi, nice decorations and plenty of maps, books and information for the surrounding area. The house is a short walk to downtown Bessemer making it very convenient. When it came to touring, it was a ten minute drive to Ironwood. We were able to reach the Presque Isle River hiking trail in 30 minutes and get to the Lake of the Clouds in the Porcupine Mountains in one hour.The stretch of Lake Superior as you entered the Porkies was easily accessible and quite nice. We will be back in a year or two and will not hesitate to stay here if it is available.

Just Like Home

We had a great time staying at the house in Bessemer. It felt cozy and comfortable. After a day of being out hiking to waterfalls and spending time looking for agates on the beaches, it felt just like coming home. The neighborhood was quiet and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Cozy and convenient

I loved my stay in this cozy house in Bessemer. The house had everything I needed for a week-long stay. It felt more like staying with family than staying in a sterile, sparsely-furnished rental. Everything I could have imagined was provided. The host was very helpful and communicative. I hope to visit again next summer.

Wonderfull little home

The home 2as very clean, organized, a lot of things, like a ninja blender, air fryer, spices, etc. The oven is a little slow to heat up. The stairs are a bit steep and short so beware, but it is an old house. The bathroom shower head is a bit short, and the bathroom upstairs is very narrow, not suited for tall or wide. The yard looked nice, didnt get to use all amenities as we were using this as a base to our other daily activities. The owner was very kind on short minute notices, it was very secure and safe. I would highly recommend this property.

Great place!

We have stayed several times in the UP and this was our favorite property. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and we saw several deer walking around and an old sweet black lab that walks around the block. Host is always available and you can communicate with him at any time. The internet is very good for any remote workers or gamers, you will be just fine. We were able to DoorDash meals which was such a convenience, as we own a restaurant and didn’t want to have to cook. But if you do want to, everything you need is there with a lot of spices available. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Joe Janczy

Host profile image
We like to spend our time outside which is why we bought this place. We take full advantage of what the Western UP has to offer--we ski, bike, camp, fish, ATV, and hike. Now that we are empty nesters, we are contemplating a full-time move to the area, but will continue to rent out our Bessemer home.

Why they chose this property

It has easy access to everything. You can play on the trails or in the forest, or check out the beaches and dip your feet in the cold water of Lake Superior at Black River Harbor, Little Girls Point or even the Porkies. Grab your golf clubs and play 9 at the Gogebic Country Club or Eagle Bluff. You can trailer the boat and take it over to the Gile Flowage, head south to the many lakes near Mercer and Manitowish Waters, or head east to Lake Gogebic. You can do any of these and still get back in time to do some shopping at the Super One and get dinner served. Rather go out to eat? There are many wonderful restaurants, some sit-down like the Iron Nugget, Rigoni's, the Ore House, Kimball Inn, or the Liberty Bell Chalet, and plenty of more casual dining experiences like the Pit Stop, Dairy Queen, Tacconelli's or Mike's Restaurant in Ironwood. Catch a little TV, sleep comfortably, make some coffee, maybe a little breakfast and get in another round of what the Western UP has to offer in the morning.

What makes this property unique

Easy access to nature with the convenience of living in a town near shopping, restaurants and bars.
