Sandra’s place was extremely comfortable all around and very accommodating for our fur baby Doodle that made his first trip to the UP with us. Parking a trailer for the snowmobile was a breeze and connecting to the trail system was super easy. Highly recommend and will definitely be staying there again!

Fabulous UP Get Away!
We had a wonderful time at the Charming Hilltop Cottage! The attention to detail was greatly appreciated and enjoyed...from the fully stocked kitchen to the treats and beds set out for our pups! The front sun room is comfortable and lovely, as is the large living room area. The location is also a plus; conveniently located near Sunday Lake, Presque Isle, and multiple hiking trails. A truly glorious get away!

Comfy cozy inviting cottage that had everything we needed. The extra’s for our fur buddy were delightful. All the amenities and then some! A well thought out place to welcome guests. Clean, neat, and a warm environment to relax and enjoy. Sandra was super helpful and quick to respond when needed. We enjoyed the sleeping porch and backyard especially.

Cozy cabin
The cabin was perfect for us! The owner made it cozy and welcoming for us and our dog, Bo. He loved relaxing in front of the fire :). Very close to attractions and restaurants in the area: Club 28, Iron Nugget, Cold Iron Brewing, Roger Randall Bakery, Root Beer Waterfall, Potawatomi Waterfall and Snow River Resort are things we checked out :) When we come back up, we will definitely see if this place is available.
