    5 / 5
    We stayed for a week in mid-July, and were very pleased with this property. I cannot say enough about how amazing the pristine Great Sand Bay beach is! Swam almost everyday and made a little fire with s’mores. Sunsets were beautiful! The house had everything we needed, and the decor was really cute. The Eagle River location is great whether you head back south to Houghton/Hancock, or want to spend some time up in Copper Harbor. I can also see this being a perfect rental for a snowmobiling trip with the game room downstairs for entertainment on a winter night after adventuring in the snow.…
