Cozy Stay Close to Trails
Heather is a fabulous, responsive host and the location could not have been better for our stay during the Marji Gesick. The house is cozy, clean, and comfortable. Quiet neighborhood and within walking distance to a cute lakefront park. While the listing states there are 2 bedrooms, access to the second bedroom and the bathroom requires passing through the first bedroom, so it is not a truly private space, which is something to consider depending on who you are travelling with.

Excellent place to stay
It was a well kept clean and fully stocked kitchen with appliances and cookware. The crock pot was especially a good idea as we could have warm good meals at the end of a long day. It's centrally located for easy access for things to do.

Great place!
My sister and I stayed for a short trip to explore the UP. The house was very clean, had everything we needed, and was in a great location. We would love to stay again in the future.

Great stay and great area!
The house was super cute and very clean. We felt very comfortable during our stay. It was great to have the streaming services, too! The kids loved watching a little TV while we got ready in the morning and at night. There was a lot to do in the area. The neighborhood was quiet. We will definitely book again next year!

we loved this place
we were in the UP for NMU orientation as well as a bit of a family vacation. We decided to stay outside of marquette so we could explore the area a bit more. This place is close enough to marquette that you can easily get there, but also far enough away that you can see other things. It is centrally located and close to grocery stores and restaurants. The hosts were excellent and provided us with everything we needed included recommendations for dinner, etc...Being able to bring our dogs was an essential for us and not only were they welcome but there were dog treats, dog bowls, and a tie out for them. Inside the house is nicely remodeled and the beds were super comfy. We also loved the couch and chairs in the living room. This was a great place to stay.

Peaceful and relaxing
The property had all the amenities we needed plus extras we didn't. The host was so kind as to supply a slow cooker for us. One less thing to pack. PERFECT location to hiking and biking trails. We definitely are planning a return visit. Having air condition was a huge benefit because the weather was extra warm.
