Perfect stay for our family of 4. Excellent location on the ATV trail!
My family of four and I were looking for a place to stay for our UTV trip and this was the perfect spot! The location is excellent for easy trail access, yet it’s still a very quiet neighborhood. It’s also close to restaurants or places you’d need to go in town. The home was so clean and very tastefully decorated and remodeled. We just loved it! The vintage stereo/record player and the sauna were awesome perks. They have everything we needed for our stay. Melissa was very communicative and helpful. We would love to stay here again and I truly hope we do, as we love riding the trails in this area. I can’t thank you enough for letting us stay in your beautiful home, Melissa. It was so lovely!

Wonderful cozy home with a professional and communicative host. Loved all the small touches around the house and the well equipped kitchen. The back deck and fire circle were quiet and a great way to unwind at the end of the day.

We stayed for a month!
What a little gem this house is. The perfect size for two people, a pup, and visiting friends. The house is located close to the Iron Belle Trail, where we road our bikes into town or to the local gym. The house is cozy and smartly decorated. The host was incredibly responsive and kind. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to explore the western U.P. and Ironwood!

Great destination even without snow!
We enjoyed this cozy, comfortable, and well decorated home which is conveniently located in Ironwood. Even though there wasn’t enough snow to snowmobile as planned, we stilled enjoyed the weekend by cross country skiing, bowling and hiking in Porcupine park. Michelle was extremely helpful in providing recommendations for things to do and places to eat. Thank you, Michelle!

Clean and comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated that it was spotless and had higher-end furnishings. Comfortable beds, soft towels and smelled wonderful. Michelle was very quick to respond to questions and the extra touches made us feel very welcomed and special. Top-notch hospitality. She cares about her guests and it's clear that she's committed to providing an exceptional experience. Most well-stocked kitchen of any rental I've stayed in. Lovely deck with tree-lined view. Fantastic value for a luxurious stay.

This is our second stay at this site and we will definitely return next year. The house is so comfortable whether you're relaxing on the front porch, back deck, living room or preparing a meal or just morning coffee. We love that we can get on the Iron Belle so easily. When we on our way home we realized my husband did not have his keys. Michelle intervened with the cleaning crew and the 'lost' keys where found and mailed back to us. We are forever grateful.
