Summary: As brewery owners, we attend the Fall Beer Fest in Marquette every year and are lucky enough to bring friends along. Not only is The Onion Tower absolutely gorgeous, but also spacious enough to house us all comfortably without feeling like we're encroaching in each other's space. I have many years worth of memories laughing with friends both in the living room by the fire and in the sauna. Also, the bed in the basement bedroom is the most comfortable ever - we even ordered the same mattress to replace our bed at home! We plan to be back again next year and for many years to come. Amazing hosts, location, and home!

Summary: We rented the Hewitt Onion for 3 families including six kiddos and it was perfect! Plenty of room and Wendy had a fun scavenger hunt game for the one rainy day we had. The kitchen is well stocked and having the host next door was great for any random questions.
