Ski brule rental

This was a great house rental (year 2). The house is beautiful and very clean. Super close to ski brule, which was our reason for coming to Iron River. Great house for a group. Love the open concept kitchen, dining, and living room. Highly recommend

Beyond Expectations!

Worth every dime! Our group of Misfits decided to splurge on our annual Iron River deer camp. Most comfortable rental any of us had prior experienced. Every intention to make this our permanent UP rifle camp moving forward.

Thanksgiving get away and ski race camp

We came over thanksgiving for a ski race camp. We really enjoyed the family room with views of the lake. The walk around the lake was great. Close proximity to brule. My only complaint was the drawers for kitchen items were very disorganized and dirty. Had to rewash everything.

Great ski trip

Stayed at this property for a ski weekend at the local resort. It was a great location (10 min drive both to the ski resort and the local town). We appreciated the opportunity to have a peaceful and beautiful place to stay that was away from the ski resort crowds. Our kids loved the games that the host had making s’mores in the firepit near the lake. The house is beautifully done. There was a maintenance concern (beeping fire alarm) during our stay but the host promptly addressed the issue. Great stay and we hope to be back!

Amazing Place

We had such a great stay in this beautiful house. It was like a home away from home! There was a great living area to spend time together and comfortable sleeping. We will definitely stay here again when in the area.
