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!

The property is very conveniently located and the size was perfect for our family's stay. We loved that we had access to the garage for parking. Kim was quick to respond with our questions, and we will definitely stay again when in the area.

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 😊

Wellness Check to MTU graduate son

My husband and I drove up from Battle Creek, MI to visit our son - Dec. 2019 MTU graduate who is working remotely and living in Houghton. The property was simply beautiful. Very clean, comfortable beds, plenty of space indoors and outdoors. The covered patio, yard space and waterfront was simply beautiful. Directions to access house were perfect. The hot tub was a delight to use and the location was very close to both Hancock and Houghton. We shopped downtown Houghton, had drinks at KBC Brewery and dinner at the Ambassador (great pizza) and the Saturday night dined at Bonfire (Continental Fire Co) and listened to a great duo - Kathy and John - we stayed for all 3 sets - they were GREAT! Visited Copper Harbor and loved hiking Hunter's Point - goes along Lake Superior. This is our son's 6th year in Houghton so we've seen/visited a lot of the area but its always nice to see and eat somewhere new. Stopped at the Gay Bar in Gay, Michigan on the drive back. Suggestion/wishes: - The weather was perfect during our visit and it would have been nice to have a couple kayaks available at/near the house to put in. - I felt bad throwing away pop/beer cans but didn't want to bring them home or run to store with returnable - might be nice to have a can in garage to leave them for you to donate to school program, etc. We would definitely return, thank you for sharing your home!
