We loved the mixture of the historic origins of the building and the top notch upgrades in the baths and kitchen. Would recommend this property with two thumbs up!
We had an awesome time at the Lighthouse! It was well stocked with all of the extra things we could need, the vibe was so mellow and relaxing, and the spaces were perfect for a getaway!
We really enjoyed our stay at the lighthouse. The location was great. The kids found Yooperlite rocks on the beach nearby. We had everything we needed and the house is beautifully decorated. We would definitely return.
The lighthouse and the property were beautiful, clean, and well-maintained. We loved the sun room and the herd of deer that came right up next to the deck to graze. The town seems relatively empty this time of year and many businesses were closed, but we didn’t mind the quiet and had a very relaxing weekend. Would definitely stay here again!
Well-equipped kitchen & comfortable beds in lovely historic home with great views of sunsets on Lake Superior. Very quiet setting in small UP town provides easy access to upper reaches of UP. Helpful books provided by owners assist visitors to plan hikes, activities, and learn about Keweenau Peninsula. Thanks for a great place to stay for our first visit to the Keweenau & UP.
The Lighthouse is perfect in every way! The host went above and beyond to make sure that we had every comfort imaginable, including local bread, syrup, and fresh flowers. The Lighthouse is extremely clean, very well maintained and perfect for enjoying the natural beauty of the area. The bed linens, pillows, hand soaps and towels were exceptional and made for a wonderful nights rest. We highly recommend this outstanding property!
The place is immaculate. Even the potted plants are perfect. Not a dead leaf or flower...We used the Master Suite and I loved the shower. The bed was perfect. Bonus gift of breakfast makings. The sun room was so relaxing and cozy. Fire pit was great for the evening. Make sure you bring food as there are no stores anywhere. Wish we didn't live so far away. Would love to return. The lighthouse part was a fun addition too.
I loved everything about our stay. The property is beautiful and totally as advertised. The interior is premium with so many additional touches added. The fresh flowers, quality soaps, and the little welcome goodies really made it all feel very special. There are no negatives for me. My husband who prefers a "few" more people around felt a bit isolated but if that's what you are looking for then this is a must book. I felt like it was a great location to explore the area.
I hope to return one day so I can see the Northern Lights from such a beautiful setting.
We splurged on this rental, and it was quite worth the cost. Such a beautifully appointed home. The bright white furniture in each room of the home gave the place an open and airy feel. The kitchen had everything we needed, including cinnamon bread and pure maple syrup for making delicious french toast. We spent time on the shore and enjoyed the short walk to The Fitzgerald for dinner. Our only suggestion would be to upgrade the one small Direct TV in the home to a larger smart TV. Perhaps a second in the bedroom as well.
Beautiful property!
Very nicely remodeled and comfortable spaces! Perfect for 3 couples color touring in the Keweenaw. Beautiful sunset and northern light views over Lake Superior. Nice touches with fresh flowers, and local treats! Will definitely be back!
We both were frazzled from life and after a 14 hour trip to Eagle River, it was pure heaven! The house was immaculate. It is spacious and very tastefully and minimally decorated to reflect the area and history. The kitchen had everything! Our favorite room was the “library,” with an absolutely stunning view of the lake, sunsets, and town. We opened both French doors and had the most delicious west-east breeze all day and night.(I even slept there 2nights!) The drives to Eagle Harbor and Copper Harbor were easy and scenic, with numerous places to pull off to explore and take pictures. Never once turned on the TV. The books were fantastic The bed was super-comfortable. I even spotted 2 large Yooperlites about 3-4 feet out in the surf one night, but due to my unsteady footing, could not reach them.
The only suggestion I would have (and this coming from one with unsteady walking) is to have non-slip strips on the edges of the steps leading down into the lower rooms. The painted steps can be slippery in sock feet.
We will be sharing our stay with friends and highly recommending this place to others. Thank you for the experience!
Historic Lighthouse is thoughtfully furnished, to the smallest detail.
Property managers Virginia and Jan are quick to respond and very accommodating.

This is our third annual trip and we plan on continuing the family tradition. Wonderful space - large and open without losing the feeling of warmth and intimacy. The surrounding area is beautiful, quiet, and travel is easy. We love this place!

Kitchen very well appointed .
So many lovely sights in the area, peaceful and quiet
