Great Hidden Gem

We were in awe once we opened the door to this place. Great for just the two of us. It had everything we needed and was very clean. We really liked the box lights for added light effects and the bed was very comfortable too. Nice shower and layout. Easy access to downtown. Parking was never a problem for us.

Nicely updated & convenient

The apartment is in a nice location and has been nicely updated. It's within walking distance to everything in town. Parking is across the street in the public parking area. There is a parking permit provided in the apartment for overnight parking. We didnt have any issue with noise, except for garbage pickup day.

Cute and close to everything

The apartment was very cute and stylish. A great repurpose of an industrial building. We enjoyed being in downtown Houghton and being able to walk to restaurants, stores and bars. Our car was able to be parked in a parking lot across the street from the apartment so it was easy to get out of town to explore the Keweenaw. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Houghton.

Great place to stay, even with noise

This place was great! The decor and apartment are comfortable and well done. The only issue we had was the amount of noise. There is a great deal of street noise being on the road, and parking was always a challenge to find someplace to park nearby until after 11:00pm when most businesses close. The noise is dulled with earplugs which is what we used. But just wanted to make sure it was mentioned so someone else is aware. However, the location and being able to walk all over town once we parked still makes it a great location to stay.

Very Soothing Spot

Stayed here while I dropped my daughter off for her first year at MTU. Was nice to have a relaxing place to stay while she made the transition. Had every amenity we needed, great location, and it’s super cute!

Best Houghton Location!

Cozy one bedroom apartment adjacent to parking deck and almost directly under Keweenaw Brew Company. Easy walk or drive to Michigan tech campus and walking to all downtown stores and restaurants. View of the water through a parking lot, but a very short walk to park on banks of the portage. Highly recommend this location for a visit to the Keweenaw.

Downtown Houghton Weekend Getaway

Me and a couple friends spent a weekend at this property and were very pleased! Very clean, stocked with lots of cooking utensils, bedding, towels. Pretty much everything you could need apart from food. Right downtown and close to our favorite restaurants and bars. It's a small place, but great for a place to sleep, shower, and spend some down time!
