Summary: We had a fantastic stay at this VRBO! The property was exactly as described—clean, well-stocked, and super comfortable. The location was perfect, close to everything we wanted to explore but still quiet and peaceful. The host was incredibly responsive and made the check-in process seamless. We really appreciated the little touches that made it feel like home. Would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at your home, it was just as advertised, clean, cozy, and comfortable. My husband especially liked the recliner chair after a long day out exploring it felt good to relax and chill. We were pleased with the communication! This was a good homebase for us as we had never been to Michigan before and wanted to do a little exploring. Thanks for sharing your place with us. We really enjoyed our time here.

Summary: The cabin was in a quiet area, great water views. It was a great location for our family to explore the Keweenaw Peninsula. The cabin was as described. Great communication from the owners. Would highly recommend and will keep this place in mind on our next trip to the Keweenaw. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
