3 Bedroom House in Christmas

Pictured Rocks Family Rentals welcomes you to Santa's Shack Whole House!

Conveniently located right behind gas station and walking distance to Foggy's Steakhouse and Casino. Christmas trailhead is only a couple blocks away. Home has tankless water heater so no cold showers!
This home is 2 separate listings that we have combined into one to offer a location for larger groups that would like to have at least 2 bathrooms and more beds for their stay. This rental does not include Santa's Shack Studio unit located on same site. We added an on demand water heater so nobody has to dread taking the last shower in a large group, lol. The home is heated by natural gas wall heaters that do get hot to the touch, so please be careful with young ones. This home has 3 bedrooms. Bedroom 1 is upstairs with a queen bed. Bedroom 2 is upstairs with a queen bed and a full on bottom/twin on top bunk bed. Bedroom 3 is downstairs with a queen bed and a private entrance to bathroom 2.

Summary: Our family loved our getaway to Santa’s Shack whole house! There were seven of us, and we all had our own bed with plenty of space to hang out as a large group or individually. The house was fully equipped to meet all of our needs, and the hot tub was a great addition! It was easy to find, and located with quick convenient access to restaurants, waterfalls, hiking trails, and the casino. We would definitely stay here again. Danielle even allowed us to show up early due to the storms approaching which we were so grateful for! Renell

Summary: Great house, we had "whole house" which included a ground level unit that had 1 bed room, full kitchen, bathroom and living room with pull up sofa bed. There was an upstairs with another full kitchen, loving room, bathroom and 2 bedrooms. Kitchen and bathroo s were well stocked. Hot tub was great!

Summary: Danielle was very helpful with our arrival. We were running later than expected so she went and turned lights on so we were able to find our way much easier. Danielle always communicated before and during our stay.

Summary: We had an outstanding week in this comfortable house. It is close to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Marquette, to name two options. We were only limited by our energy- there was so much to do! And when we returned after a day of exploring, we were able to soak in the outdoor hot tub and prepare food in the well-appointed kitchen. The beds were comfortable too. When we had questions, the owners were quick to respond. We'll be back!

Summary: This location was perfect for the UP marathon and many beaches and activities. Great for big crowd. Only suggestion would be to remove Teflon pans and replace with steel which are much healthier to cook with.

Summary: The house was very comfortable for the 8 of us. The upstairs(unit 2) is beautiful and very spacious. There is a ton of natural light. We were able to make all of our meals with the supplies that Danielle had provided. The deck is very large and accommodated all of us easily. The only negative was it faces the back of the hotel next store and the main road. The bath is very nice and Danielle has added some extra supplies in case you forget something. There is a part of the bathtub that moves and is too flexible under foot. The stairs up to the unit are quite steep. The downstairs(unit 3) is less impressive. It’s been updated, however it’s dark and much smaller. We tried to use the pullout bed, but the mattress was disgusting looking and very uncomfortable, so 2 of us ended up on the couches. The downstairs bath is very large, but it has multiple levels. You go up 2 steps to the toilet and two for the shower. It’s very awkward and could be dangerous depending on who is renting this space. When you step out of the shower the step bows and the shower floor is slippery.
