We loved this home! It’s very nice with an exceptional view! We spent a lot of time out on the deck enjoying the view! We cooked, color toured, and played games. We had plenty of room for everyone! The host was super! Thank you for a great weekend!

Beautiful house in perfect location!
This home is lovely and in the perfect spot for a visit to MTU or a Keewenaw adventure! Our family group of 7 enjoyed everything about this home... the beds were the most comfortable we've ever had, the view is spectacular, the home is well appointed and very comfortable! Would recommend to anyone, and will definitely book again!

Beautiful spot
I grew up in this town… one of my HighSchool friends grew up in the house next door, and I loved going to her house and looking out over Houghton/Hancock. This place was a great stay. Loved the view, a great launching point for keweenaw exploration with the family. We all really loved the house, and plan to stay again in the future.

Beautiful view
Close to Michigan Tech's campus and the multitude of Keweenaw Peninsula's trails, water falls, and views made this location perfect for our adult family of five. Great space for community on the deck or in the open floor plan living space, we also had our own room to relax in. Clean space with everything we needed (sans TV), and just a breathtaking view of the canal and Houghton.

Happy in Hancock
Unbelievable view of Portage Lake Bridge from a spacious deck and home. Plenty of room to spread out, cook and be mesmerized by the beauty of the Keewenaw. Great anchoring spot to go out to explore. Many beaches and parks close by. The winding, maze of hilly roads keeps your brain sharp. Would go back!

Best View in Town
The property was dynamite. Clean, convenient, quiet and a spectacular view of Houghton, the lift bridge and the canal. Could easily sleep a dozen or more. Great workout / sauna area and the deck would be perfect in summer. Only missing a TV and a pool table, but still outstanding.
