Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the house on Lake Independence in Big Bay! The highlight of our trip was definitely watching the sunrise and sunset from the porch, where we had a stunning view of the water. We also enjoyed capturing photos of the full moon reflecting on the lake in the evenings. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. The house itself is well-equipped with everything you need for a relaxing getaway. From the comfortable living space to the well stocked kitchen, we felt right at home. One of the standout features was the Sleep Number bed, which provided an outstanding sleep experience. We woke up refreshed and ready to enjoy the day!Our host, Jim, was wonderful in communicating with us and ensuring we had everything we needed during our stay. He went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable.It’s worth noting that the photos of the house do not do justice to the real thing – it’s even more beautiful in person!Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better retreat. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape, this is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to return!

Summary: Jim’s home is a gem. It’s spacious and comfortable and has everything you might need. I particularly enjoyed having my meals in the sunroom each day. The lake and property are the perfect setting for relaxing and enjoying being out in nature. The public beach in town on Lake Superior is quite nice, and Marquette is just a half hour away, with lots of great hiking and natural areas in between. I hope to be able to return for another stay some day.

Summary: The house was right on the lake with outdoor seating. Also has a sunroom, so if the mornings or evenings are too cool, you can still enjoy the lake from there. Only a couple of things to be aware of. The listing says 3 bedrooms, it is only 2 true bedrooms. The third is a pullout couch in the sunroom. It also states 2 bathrooms. It is one true bathroom. The other is a toilet and utility sink in the utility room. It served it's purpose and worked just fine for 2 couples. The overall house was wonderful and I would definitely stay there again if we are in the area.

Summary: What a great place to stay. Starting your day looking over the lake from the sunroom could not be better. There is everything you need there to enjoy the lake. My only suggestion would be if you want to do a lot of fishing you might want to bring a boat. Communicating with the owner is a breeze.

Summary: The grounds and lake house are well kept and family friendly. We all appreciated the spaciousness and the comfort of the living room. That being said, our teenagers hardly left the dock. They came in the house only to eat and sleep. Fishing was so much fun. The sandy bottom of the lake was great on the feet. Jim was very accommodating and easy to contact. This is obviously a much loved house. I would recommend bringing all your supplies including toilet paper and paper towels, foil, etc. There is little available in the immediate area. You have to go to Marquette which is 1.5 hour round trip. That is hard to do because once you are at the house, you don't want to leave. If you have a special dish you wish to cook, I recommend bringing your own knifes and pans. There are plenty of utensils, plates, etc, but the knives, pots and pans are very basic. If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable retreat, this is the place.

Summary: Stunning views of fabulous lake from this property. Great water toys and seems like new dock. Communication with the owner Jim was open and easy and he had great tips for the area. Our opinion was the property could use a deep cleaning and organizing of cupboards, updated cookware (fry pans, cookie sheets), new pillows.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home on Lake Independence. The property is nice and quiet, filled with wildlife and beautiful views of the lake. It's a short drive to Lake Superior and to the quaint town of Big Bay. Jim was an absolutely excellent host and stayed in contact with us to make sure all was going well and if we had any questions or concerns. My only 'complaints' about the property would be that it did not have any beach (my fault, I should have read the property description better) and the king size bed was extremely hard. It was supposed to be a sleep number bed but I don't think it was working. Both my husband and I have back and hip/knee issues so it did make for difficult sleep. We did have everything we needed other than paper products - you will need to bring toilet paper, paper towels, etc. But otherwise it was fully stocked. Also you'll need firewood, but there are a multitude of road side stands selling firewood. All in all a great stay and Jim is a fantastic host. If you're game for a good walk through the woods with a few 'sketchy' places to get through, there are beautiful waterfalls in the area.
