About this property

Santa's Shack Triplex - near Pictured Rocks

Pictured Rocks Family Rentals welcomes you to Santa's Shack Triplex! This home is actually 3 separate units combined into one for large groups. We can sleep up to 19 during spring, summer and fall and up to 15 in the winter. This includes a separate bunk house in the backyard that sleeps up to 4 on a set of 2 bunkbeds, only available May through October. There are 3 bathrooms with a tankless water heater so hot showers for everyone! There's also a hot tub on the back patio.

Our home is located in Christmas, less than 5 miles from Munising, the beginning of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. We offer a Studio unit that has a king bed, a bunk bed, a kitchen and a bathroom. The lower level of the main house has one bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a queen size sofa sleeper in the living room, as well as another kitchen and the laundry room is on the same level. On the upper level, there are 2 bedrooms. One has a queen bed, and the other has a queen bed, and a twin over full bunk bed. The upper level also has a bathroom, living room, kitchen, and offers a deck off the kitchen area with a gas grill and patio set. The bunkhouse is a short walk into the backyard and has 2 sets of bunk beds in it and it's own Roku TV for entertainment. Below the upstairs deck is a private hot tub, another patio set, and another gas grill. The backyard has a fire pit along with a picnic table.

Come on up and stay with us with your large family or group of friends! The way our home is set up, you'll have room to separate when you want a little more privacy but all can still stay together :) We are only a couple blocks from snowmobile/atv trails with room to park a few trucks and trailers. Pictured Rocks boat tours are less than 5 miles away, Au Train Beach and Sand Point Beach are about 10 minutes away, Grand Island Landing to explore Grand Island is about 3 miles east of us. In Munising, there's numerous waterfalls, mountain biking/hiking trails, kayak tour companies, restaurants, bowling alley, ice skating rink (during winter only), there's something for everyone! Foggy's Steakhouse and Christmas Kewadin Casino are both within walking distance from our home. The White Pine Lodge is right in the backyard which has a gas station, convenience store and hand dipped ice cream for an after dinner treat. Bay Furnace Park is a short jaunt where you can check out the old ruins from the blast furnace where pig iron was made in the late 1800's.

About the host

Hosted by Danielle Kolbus

Host profile image
I met my husband Kevin on a "girls" snowmobile trip in February of 2011. I was visiting from Byron in the lower peninsula and he has lived in the Munising area for most of his life. We got to know each other and fell in love via technology (Facebook and phone calls/texting). We were married on Grand Island in July 2012. After living after apart for the first 11 years of our relationship, I was finally able to move up here in March 2022. We love living near all of our properties and being able to work together to give our guests the personal attention and service they deserve. We love sharing this beautiful area with all who come to visit!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for it's great location being close to Foggy's Steakhouse, casino, gas station/party store, close to our trail system, and, of course, being close to the amazing Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. We love the flexibility this home offers! It can be 3 separate units, all combined together, or a combination of two units to fit all sizes of groups and up to 19 people. Once we puchased this home, we immediately added a tankless water heater, and later added a hot tub.

What makes this property unique

*sleeps up to 19, all in beds except for 2 on a sofa sleeper
*walking distance to casino, Foggy's Steakhouse, gas station
*5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, unlimited hot water
*year round private hot tub
*2 blocks from atv/snowmobile trails
