Our snowmobile trip was so nice because of the Penny House! Both driveways are deep enough for trucks and trailers with ramps. The garage was useful for grilling and sleds if the need arises. One block from the trail that skirts the highway. The house is bright and fresh. The hostess was wonderful, and very responsive with messages. Would recommend to anyone visiting the U.P.

Great place to stay! The garage would be really nice to use in the winter snowmobiling or working on anything really. It was nice to have dry wood available to have a bonfire. The house was very clean and neat with plenty of room to park a truck and trailer. Only thing you need to be aware of is that it is on the highway and you cannot legally ride a SxS the 1/8th of a mile to the trail per the county sheriff. We trailered to the co-op 1/4 mile down the road which was easy enough. Lots of people just roll the dice, but we didn't want to take any chances. Would definitely stay here again.

Great house that was the perfect size for our family (2 adults, 1 teen, 1 kid). Conveniently and centrally located in the western UP. Loved it!Note: A/C is 2 window units on the first floor. Worked great for a house this size. Fans were provided for upstairs bedrooms.
