"I almost hesitate to give this a five-star review, because I don’t want the secret to get out – this is the best place to stay in Houghton! Our son is a student at MTU, so we are in the area numerous times a year. We have stayed at various other properties (both Airbnb’s and other hotels), but Independence Stay has become our go-to spot. The property is always immaculately clean, modern, and well-maintained. The staff is friendly. The rooms are comfortable, with just enough kitchen supplies...

"Easy check in and check put, pet friendly, location to MTU and Houghton."

"Clean and cozy, owner was great to work with!"

"we have stayed here for a few years each fall and love the home friendly atmosphere. The beds have always been comfortable, and the washer and dryer are a big plus. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay this year. The owner is very prompt in responding to your emails."

"Very welcoming host! Great location to explore Copper Harbor; we loved it!"

"We loved our stay. Jason and Misty were very helpful woth recommendations and the views were spectacular!"

"Wonderful property. Had everything we needed. Great & specific welcome book with details. "

"The Cabin exceeded our every expectation. It was cozy, very clean, updated and very well decorated, great new bathroom. Heat worked quickly and efficiently. Kitchen was very well equipped. Everything was wonderful. We wished we had booked it for more than one night!!!"
