Quiet location with sufficient amenities. We struggled getting good sleep as the beds were too firm or didn’t have enough cushion. Also, I’d bring along your own pillow if you side sleepers.

An awesome place to stay while the snow comes down! I really enjoyed being able to squeeze in some snowshoeing while on my work trip. The locals were getting tired of the snow, but it was a beautiful throwback for me. My grandparents live in a similar house, so it was like going to stay at their place. Thank you very much for having me! I loved staying here!

From the friendly and informative welcome book to the smores supplies, this rental feels like home. Everything about this cozy house was a lovely surprise! Clean (like bare feet and white socks clean!). Plenty of extra linens (fluffy towels!). Fully stocked kitchen (pots, pans, glass storage, ice cube trays, coffee, coffee filters, spices). Every detail has been well thought out. There are even extra toiletries in case you forgot something! The location is amazing! Walking distance to MTU and trails. There is never enough time to experience all the beauty and adventures of the area. We will be back!

Wonderful hosts, helpful and responsive, great location very close to the mich tech trails. Kitchen very well stocked, with good quality cookware. We really enjoyed using the fire ring for smores, and grilling our dinner on their backyard gas grill. Even though it is not far from MTU campus, the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to stay here again.
