Beautiful and relaxing get away

We appreciated how nice, clean and comfortable everything was. We fully enjoyed touring the harbor, the Quincy copper mine, and hiking several local trails. We were fortunate to hit the peak of the fall colors, and the scenery was absolutely gorgeous!

Good central location

This property was located within easy drive of points of interest in Calumet and Hancock, plus Copper harbor and points east of CH including the Keweenaw Rocket Range. The small kitchen was convenient for easy meal preparation. At one point, I lost the key for a period before I located it again. The owner was able to provide me with the spare while I located the lost key. The owner was very responsive and saved the day!

Cute Cottage

Very cute cottage, just right for the two of us to relax, and enjoy the area. It did have a musty smell, which wasn’t too bad after we had bought air freshener spray and some scented candles. Otherwise great area, would like to come back and explore the area more.

Thank you Rodney for the prompt responses to my questions. We enjoyed exploring the area.

The place was clean & cozy. Unfortunately, the area by the porch stairs are an accident waiting to happen. Maybe you should consider moving stairs to the side towards the parking. Fix broken windows and window shade for the door. Last thing, the frying pans need to be replaced. We brought one at the dollar store to use. Sorry for the negative response. I hope it improves your rental. Sept 22/25 2024

Perfect little cabin

This cabin is in a great location, right next to The Great Gitchee Gumee and between Copper Harbor and Calumet. A perfect location. Eagle Harbor is a quaint little town with opportunities to fish, be at the beach, walk, shop, and eat. Rodney was very easy to communicate with before and during our stay. There IS internet access. We were able to connect and stream on our devices.

Week of remote work and play

We rented this place for a week. Our plan was to work in the morning and explore in the afternoon WiFi is so so in Eagle Harbor but communication with the owner ahead of time helped get us set up. Eagle harbor was quiet and beautiful! We did holes, biking and kayaking in the Keweenaw Peninsula. House was perfect for our needs! Owner was great

Cozy and great location

The cottage is cozy and has everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved sipping our morning coffee on the front porch overlooking Eagle Harbor. Just a few steps away is the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse, which is a great place to see the stars. We even caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights! The 6.3 mile hike up Mt Baldy is close by and worth the effort! We hope to come back!

Another peaceful visit!

This is our third visit to this lovely cottage. This charming spot is completely peaceful and restful with everything needed to relax and enjoy the Keweenaw peninsula. Eagle Harbor is close to Copper Harbor but not as busy. Enjoy walks to the Eagle Harbor lighthouse and museum only a stones throw away. We also love to walk down and enjoy the incredible sunsets over Lake Superior.

The cottage was clean and perfect for our vacation. The town is lovely and the people seemed really generous and friendly. Thank you for sharing your space with us. Owner was accommodating at a last minute booking and change that we needed to ask for. This area of Michigan is worth the drive. Gorgeous and just what you need to get away.

Cute little cottage

It was really cute and comes with anything you may need besides food and a washer! It’s so nice cozy and relaxing. The view is awesome. Short distance to the light house and we got to see the nothern lights. Great stay. However the bridge is under a lot of construction so it was bad timing for us and the places we wanted to go to took way longer which sucked. Great communication with Rodney and over all a great place to stay.
