Winter Carnival fun!

The house was just what we needed for our visit to MTU. It was clean and roomy…While there we got a bit of snow overnight, the roads were plowed the next morning. We had lots of fun on our long weekend. Thanks for sharing your house with us!

MTU Family Retreat

The place is amazing. Very clean and spacious. Location to Houghton and the Keewenaw is perfect. We had five adults so the three bedrooms were perfect. Open kitchen/dining/living room space is perfect for being together. The outdoor patio and lawn on the water is wonderful. Loved the hot tub. This was our second time staying there and we hope to return again! Thank you for sharing your space with us!

The stay was AWESOME! The location was beautiful, Kim was great and the accommodations were lovely!

Everything was great! Highly recommend!! Great for a weekend get away or anytime anyone wants a nice spot for a relaxing UP vacation. I bet it is pretty awesome in the winter too! There is a major trail just up from it that is a big snowmobiling trail in the winter. It is on the canal which is beautiful and has a hot tub that overlooks it, awesome spot!! Can’t recommend enough 😊

Spacious and a great location

We stayed while moving our son into his MTU apartment. This property was very spacious, comfortable and in a great location. Quiet area. Fully stocked. It literally had everything we needed. We made use of the grill and patio and enjoyed the view of the canal. The owner was very responsive to questions. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again.
