Www.lakesuperiorrental.com. You won’t be disappointed.

Nestled on the southern shore of Lake Superior, Jarven Hytti is a luxury experience at an affordable price. The private setting provides beautiful views of the lake and its pink-sand agate beach. Not your typical north woods cabin, the architect-inspired Finnish style beach house is spectacular. It comfortably sleeps 8 persons. And, the two modern ,tidy bathrooms comfortably accommodate its guests. A modern, fully-equipped kitchen , a large family room with a stone fireplace, comfortable bedrooms and fireplace on the deck all add to the cozy , functional, vacation home. Luxury linens and native dwarf lake irises round out a truly wonderful getaway setting. Off the beaten track, near the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness/ , Jarven Hytti is the perfect base camp for your upper peninsula / Lake Superior adventure. Spring and summer . Get cozy in front of the fire.

SUSTAINABILITY, THE WETLAND AND THE SHORE
JärvenHytti was designed with the input and approval of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and the Army Corps of Engineers. Every effort has been made to protect the adjacent wetland ( with its natural flora and fauna ) and the shoreline.

DOGS WELCOME. BUT, PLEASE REMEMBER THE DOG FEE. IT REALLY DOES REQUIRE MORE CLEANING TO MAKE JÄRVEN HYTTI SPIC ‘N SPAN FOR THE NEXT GUESTS.

Occasionally renters ask “why an additional nightly charge for each guest over the first two?” We are sure you understand , as with any household, additional residents add to the costs of operation. Scavenger services( charged by-the-bag), septic service( more pumping) ,laundry (sheets and towels) , utilities ( water, electricity) , cleaning services, general wear-and-tear and other overheads increase with the number of occupants. While most rentals are to groups of two, it would be unfair to price the basic nightly rate to prorate the additional costs associated with larger-group stays. Thank you for understanding.

Amazing Property
This was probably the most beautiful property we've stayed at. The house was spotless, and had everything you could possibly need for your stay. Being 50% Finnish,I really appreciated all the Scandinavian decor (with a bit of Paris thrown in). We enjoyed the outdoor (and indoor) fireplaces. The property was just beautiful and situated on Lake Superior with wonderful starlit, dark sky views. We will definitely be back!!

Superior Stars
Location,location,location! Cozy Lake Superior beach front home. Great for rock hunting, hikers, beach goers and relaxing. Close to Lake of Clouds and hiking trails. Nightime is for star gazing and if you bring a light for finding yoperlite rocks you may get lucky on your night walk. Great pet friendly place.

Awesome Stay!
It was great to be back in Ivan's lovely cottage on the lake! We've stayed in many VRBO properties and this is the best...well-built, clean, comfortable and fully stocked. After skiing every day we enjoyed relaxing by the fire and making meals in a spacious kitchen. Perfect location!
