Everything was clean and pleasant, but would have been much better to have footstools, or even one large footstool so people can put their feet up after a long day. The beds were very comfortable, also.
We have stayed at this property and it does not disappoint. Conveniently located for anything you may want to do, hike, golf, enjoy the beach.
Highly recommend it.
Well stocked and well kept house with comfortable furnishings and fenced backyard. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding area. We hope to be return again someday.
The house was as listed and a great location to snowmobile trails and very convenient having the grocery store across the street! Fully stocked kitchen with everything you would need!
Great vacation home. Well stocked with appliances, dishes glasses and silverware . House is totally remodeled and very clean. Would recommend this place to anyone. Will return next year
The property manager & the owner were very
accommodating. All of our requests were answered within minutes. I would definitely recommend to this property to friends and family.
The property was perfect for 3 adult couples with dogs. The backyard was fantastic with a fenced in yard for the pups to chase each other and spacious enough for yard games. The location is fantastic, just walk 5 minutes down the street right to the beaches. The interior is stunning, don’t let the modest exterior fool you, this place is absolute gem.
This is our 3rd or 4th time staying at Cory's "Da Big House" and we will be staying again! This home has everything we need for a sledding trip to the UP. Close to the trails, plenty of parking, nice beds, and space for everyone. Cory is a great communicator and as usual, extremely helpful! Book it!
We actually had a great time in Au Train on a planned ski weekend that was snowless. Great space for 5 adults, two teenagers and two dogs. The location was actually perfect - maybe even more convenient than right on the lakeshore. Cory took care of two minor issues we had immediately. Would stay again without question.
We had a great time at Da Big House. We had 11 in our group. It’s a beautiful part of the the country. The house was great, and the Au Train beach was a great way to swim in Lake Superior but with warmer water.
My wife and I along with some of our friends decided to go up north to see pictured rocks and the fall colors. We wanted a spacious and comfortable place to stay and this place fit our exact wants. It was so spacious comfortable with amazing amenities. The host was welcoming and responded to any inquires. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice home. My friends and I will most definitely rent this property again for future adventures!
Trails less than 2 blocks away. Fuel across the road. Casino and Foggys are a 10 min away. Can be to the bay to ice fish in 15 min. By far the best place we have stayed in the UP.
The pictures of this cabin do not do it justice. It was so clean, and cozy but with a modern feel. The location is 10/10. We didn’t have enough time during our stay to do everything we wanted to do near this cabin.
We will be renting this cabin again!
This our 2nd time staying at da Big House... and we will continue to stay yearly! Cory, as usual, was super helpful and there when we needed him. We cooked all meals at the cabin, and the kitchen had everything that we needed. Beds were comfortable and rooms were very clean. Location was right off of Trail 418 with plenty of room for trailer parking. You will not be disappointed!
Nice house, very clean and about 10-15 minutes away from Munising. Didn’t make use of the backyard fire pit during the stay, but it’s a nice amenity. There is a small grocery and a restaurant with pizza, pasties and ice cream just down the road that you can walk to. Walking to the beach on Lake Superior is only a 5 minute walk too. Definitely would consider staying here again on a future trip to the area.
This is our second time staying here. We totally love the place! It is an ideal location. Da Big House is perfect for our needs. Gas and store are right across the street. The trail is 200 yards from the house. Cory, the property manager, is very easy to work with. We will be back in the future.
My husband and I were unable to make the trip due to some unexpected health issues--our grown kids decided to take the trip anyway! They loved the house, the location and all the activities! The hosts were great to work with when I had to change our reservation and we are planning on making an even longer reservation for next year!!
It was the perfect place to lay our heads. The place was just the right size. The owners were accommodating to our needs. The beds were so comfortable. The separation between bedrooms was ideal. It was nice to bring the pups! The different exits for dogs was nice. The only downsize was it needs a deep cleaning. It was great location and price for where/what we were there to do! Thank you
Originally a group of seven were scheduled but only six made it.Let me tell you all I was informed by my group that this house and location to trail #418 is simply perfect.Host was a true professional and the home represented a lot of pride.Spacious and comfy home for all walks of life from snowmobilers to adventures. We will book this place again next year.Thank you to Da Big House.
