Nice Cottage on the UP
This home was compact, but very clean and had many thoughtful touches like well-placed night lights, a good bread knife, etc. The hosts checked in with us to be sure we had no problems and we were doing fine. The home is on a highway, so there is a bit road noise, but it is located so that neither Copper Harbor or Houghton seemed too far to go. The house book had some good recommendations for restaurants and we had a nice meal at Fitzgerald's. It was great to have the ability to do some laundry while we were there. We were there in early May, so some things were not open (Slim's,for example), but then we did not have tourist crowds and traffic to deal with, so we still had a good stay.

cute little house
We enjoyed our stay at this cute little house. It's very tastefully decorated and had everything our family of 5 needed. It's conveniently located about halfway between Houghton and Copper Harbor, where we spent most of our time. Also, Slim's Cafe across the street serves a great breakfast.

UP vibes
The property was nice and clean. You could travel anywhere im 30 minutes. Very nice for small number of people. I would recommend a mew sofa bed. The springs are felt and it has lost it's integrity to support a good night's sleep. For people with disabilities especially those wheelchair dependent, it may not be the best proper property. The hallways are narrow and zig zag. Someone would need to assist and if it is a wide based wheelchair definitely cannot make it to the back of the home. Maybe pictures of the hallway would be helpful for people when viewing the property. Also doorways measurements vould be helpful as well. Every situation is different so be sure to ask for more information. The property owners are great and helpful.

Agate hunters
We visited many beaches looking for agates and pretty rocks. We ate at Petersons for our favorite whitefish. We had delicious bloody marys at Schutes Bar. We had scrumptious pizza in Eagle River. We fed a few mosquitoes and froze a few feet in beautiful Lake Superior. We stopped to see the monks and bought great bread at the Wood'n Spoon. We had a wonderful time and hope to come again.

Nice location
Great location for our small group of four. We snowmobiled and enjoyed being able to leave right from the yard with easy trail access and parking room for a trailer. Slims cafe is a hidden gem. We enjoyed their fresh cinnamon buns and pasties to go. Great spot for breakfast and the service is great! Glacia Tavern is right next door and has a great selection of beverages and great food. Be sure to call ahead for a reservation. Houghton is about a 20 minute drive and offers some great places to visit. We checked out Keweenaw Brewing for some great craft beers. The Embassador has some of the best pizza and is highly recommended. Overall I would rate this place 5 stars. Second time here and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The Trail House was awesome! It was spotless and there were enough blankets on the bed along with extra options for more if needed. This might sound crazy, but the heater in the house kicked butt! Entertainment options were fantastic! The only suggestion I would make is to add a hook directly outside the shower so the person inside the shower can have a ready towel available. Thanks for a terrific stay! Your tip on the Glacia Bar and Grill next-door was fantastic! That food was to die for. Hope to see you again someday.
