Great large family gathering
The house is spacious and set up well for our multi-generational gathering. Our kids/teens take over the basement and that leaves calm for conversation and cooking on the main and upper levels. The kitchen is well-stocked although the dishwasher is on its last legs (still worked fine for us). The location was convenient for everything we wanted to do. Thanks for a great stay!

Spacious, comfortable and quiet
The house has lots of space - perfect for a large family or group. Nice, quiet neighborhood and cute yard. Owner was VERY responsive to all of our questions and requests, which was appreciated. The house could use some updates and perhaps a deep clean, so I wouldn't call it a "five-star property", but it was nice overall and met all of our needs; We were pleased with our stay and would definitely stay here again, so that is why it earned a five star overall rating from us.

MTU Reunion
This property was ideal to accommodate our large group of friends and children for a reunion of MTU classmates. The house is HUGE so no one felt crowed. The basement had lots of fun games to keep our teenage children occupied. Some of the furniture has definitely seen better days, but everything was very clean. It was easy walking distance to both downtown Hancock and Houghton. I would definitely request to stay again if staying in the area with a large group.

Good location to visit the area
Overall the house was decent. Very spacious and sprawling. There was no possible way we would have been able to fit sled trailers there, although told we could, 3 trucks didn’t even fit comfortably. Cleanliness could have been better. Bathrooms were “old dirt” dirty. Kitchen was pretty bad especially the fridge/ freezer. Biggest disappointment was no functioning hot tub. It had been broken over a year but still listed as an amenity. That said, we would possibly stay again- but not if planning a snowmobile trip, which was our plan until no snow showed up!

Perfect for a large group
We had 19 family members up for the December graduation at MTU. The size of this home was all we could have hoped for. Parking made for a lot of shuffling of vehicles, but we knew that going in, so it was workable. The amount of kitchen equipment and tableware was absolutely astounding!!

A Family Gathering
Family from near and far convened at this house for a few days to share meals and reconnect. The three large common areas and two dining tables made conversation and sharing meals easy. The downstairs pool table and games were a hit as well! Quiet neighborhood and plenty of parking made the spot ideal. Thanks!

Fifth visit!
This house continues to be an excellent place to stay with proximity to Houghton/Hancock and the Keewenaw. While the house is starting to show signs of maintenance needed, the space is amazing for our very large group that spans three generations and the host is very responsive and friendly. We will keep coming back!

Family wedding
Highly recommend for larger groups. We were in town for a family wedding and the property was just what we were looking for. Centrally located, plenty of places to sleep or play. Loved the pool table and games in the lower level. Kitchen stocked with everything you could need along with multiple tables to set for a large group. Owners were extremely easy to work with and allowed our small dogs. Will stay again.

Great stay!
It was our fourth time staying at this property with a large group of family friends. The house is ideally set up for kids to self-segregate to the basement and the adults can have calm and quiet upstairs. We love that there are so many bedrooms and the house is extremely convenient to so many local things to do. We plan to go back for sure!

Spacious, quiet & homey with amazing views
We rented this house for our son's graduation from Michigan Tech. The house was plenty spacious for our group. The basement game room was a hit and where we spent most of the time. The upstairs bedrooms were nice as they are away from the noise. We were a little disappointed that the hot tub was still not working as it was winter. We didn't let that ruin our celebration of our graduate. The kitchen/dining room was very spacious. The large island made preparing & serving food very easy. If we find ourselves in the Houghton/Hancock area again, I will most certainly check this place again!! Check in and check out was a breeze and the communication was very quick. Thank you so much for this amazing experience.

Great spot for large groups
Wonderful house near town that can accommodate large groups well, and the hosts were responsive and accommodating. It was very clean and was a great base camp for a large group of friends that came to visit the Keweenaw. Unfortunately the hot tub was not working during our stay, but the fix was being worked on.
