Loved our stay! The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was perfect- short walk to the beach and to downtown. Laura is a wonderful host! We can't wait to come back in the summer! :)
We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The house has had some wonderful renovations that make it very comfortable and welcoming. The back yard was the hidden gem of the house, a great spot for coffee or breakfast each morning.
The location was pretty ideal, in a beautiful residential neighborhood with Lake Superior literally at the end of the block! Our trip went by too fast, and we would love to come back for another stay soon.
We LOVED the location! Just a walk away from the beach. Close to downtown. It was stocked with everything that you might need. I would recommend this place, to others!
Great location, so close to the beach. We enjoyed several late night and early morning walks to the beachfront/Lake Superior. Only a few minutes from downtown Marquette. Host was very thoughtful and communicative.
Great stay! The house was nicely outfitted with everything we needed. The spacious open first floor, that opened onto the back patio, was just perfect for us to really enjoy our time together as a family. The house is as described, a block from the beach! There is a great pedestrian path that leads to the downtown are as well.
Amazing. We had a great time. Short walk to the beach. Great location to everything in town and short ride to other outdoor attractions. Hard to leave. Highly recommend.
My husband and 19 year old really enjoyed our stay in Marquette. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was nicely stocked and there is a grocery coop at the end of the street that is open everyday. The location was great as well. Half a block from the beach and bike path.
Laura, the property manager, was very responsive and helpful.
The house was super clean, stocked with everything we could have needed and had comfortable bedrooms and living space. Location was perfect in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. Being so close to the trail, the beach and a quick bike ride into town was perfect for us.
We loved our stay here. Perfect location, clean, and everything we could have needed.
Nice that the Beach and the Lakeshore Depot is right across the street and town is right up the hill. We would love to come back next summer.
Laura's house was absolutely PERFECT for our family vacation. The neighborhood was quiet and family friendly. The convenient location was so close to everything we wanted to do. The house was so well stocked; I found that I overpacked on kitchen supplies. Other places that we have stayed have not been as well equipped so I tend to bring my essential kitchen supplies just in case. Not necessary for this house...Laura has thought of everything. The house was very clean. It was spacious enough for our family and the driveway had enough room for both of our vehicles. The only negative thing I can say is that our stay wasn't long enough. We will definitely book with Laura again. Thanks for giving us a wonderful place to stay, Laura!
We enjoyed being close to the harbor and the many scenic areas so near. The house was well equipped and comfortable and was in a nice quiet neighborhood. The host was very responsive to our many questions.
We would highly recommend this property & will consider returning.
Clean, perfectly located, great ownership! The house had everything you would ever need! You even got a gift when you arrive! We will be back ! We didn’t want to leave!
Thank you again for the great long weekend!
We had a great visit hosting our family from out of town. The house looks small from the street but the large open kitchen/dining made a great place i host our family dinner. Well stocked with cookware and supplies. I would definitely come back!!
Four adults and three children enjoyed staying in this home for a winter getaway. The house was plenty big for all of us with two sitting rooms and a cozy fireplace to keep us warm. The owners left us a welcome gift and brochures about Marquette. We loved having a fenced in backyard to play in and the location was perfect for shopping and dining in town. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend the home.
This place is just beautiful and located in a perfect spot for enjoying all that Marquette has to offer. Kitchen is very well stocked to make cooking easy. The views off the decks are excellent. It’s also close to mtb trails & has a killer bike storage room. Highly recommend!
We had a great stay at this house. We were greeted with a nice welcome card and a couple bottles of wine. Perfect location a block from the beach and less than a mile from downtown. The perfect staging area for moving into the dorms at NMU. Thanks for sharing your place- We loved it.
