Loved our stay in Escanaba. Close to town. Dog friendly. Loved the fenced in portion for our pup and ability to walk to the water for the sunrise. Bring water shoes for the summer months. Had dinner next door - so yummy!

Very nice and clean place to stay right outside of Escanaba. Beautiful view of the bay with nice hot tub to relax in in the morning and evenings. It was also really nice to have a restaurant right next door with good food. We will be using this rental again when staying in the UP!

Food was very good.

Just what we needed..

Cute little Bungalow.... Waterfront was beautiful, We used the property as a home base to visit Grand Marais, Munising, and Marquette. Took in Log Slide and Sable Falls in Pictured Rocks shoreline park, went up and enjoyed the day at Presque Isle, all while getting our whistle wet at the local breweries the cities had to offer. Topped off the last evening with an amazing pizza at Breezy! Would love to return for another visit.

Very cute place, awesome hot tub area and view

We had an incredible stay at this cozy little cabin on the lake! The location was perfect—secluded enough to feel like a true getaway, but close enough to everything we needed. The views were absolutely breathtaking, especially in the morning with the sun rising over the water.The cabin itself was charming, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. It was the ideal spot for some much-needed quality time with my spouse. Peaceful, quiet, and just the right amount of rustic comfort.Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking to unwind and soak up some natural beauty. We’re already talking about our next visit!

Weekend getaway from the city

The place was clean and well stocked with everything I needed. The fenced in yard was perfect for my dogs to bop around while I soaked in the hot tub. We had a great weekend away from home!

It was a cozy getaway. The location was excellent. Steps from beautiful lakeMichigan the view was incredible. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard and fresh air. The outdoor patio area with the hot tub was an amazing place to take in the stars at night. The food was great next door.

Great Place to Stay!

My husband and I stayed for a little kid-free get away. The location was perfect for us to be able to travel to town, other near by cities, and have dinner/drinks right next door! The hot tub was a main reason we chose this place and it was perfectly set up, with a nice privacy fence. We loved that a couple of games were also provided for us to enjoy as well!

Nicely stocked and good host

Nicely stocked house! We had a nice stay for 3 nights. It isn't a perfect house. 1) The water is STINKY! To the point you don't want to shower or even turn on the hot water. 2) The house is 25 yards off of a highway with LOTS of transport trucks going by. If you are a light sleeper just know this. We closed the bedroom door and that helped but didn't eliminate the road noise. 3) The bed is rock hard! I've never been on a bed this firm! I'm 6'1" and about 195 and I don't think my body even broke the surface of this mattress! I'm not even exaggerating. 4) I love hot tubs. This one is super clean! Most of the jets don't function though. That was a bummer! 5) The shower is tiny and the floor is spongy! It grossed out my girlfriend. Again, everything is so clean and we appreciate the stay. A few things and this could be a perfect place, at least for us.
