This home & property was the perfect place to stay while visiting Marquette. If youâre on the fence about booking donât hesitate because itâs worth it.
We stayed here as a family with young children as well as many friends and this house had everything we needed and more! We loved that the backyard was spacious and fenced in. The location was top notch, close to downtown Marquette which has so many fun shops and cool breweries. Itâs also a quick hour drive to pictured rocks which was totally worth it! Overall, a great location, a cozy home to come back to and an awesome backyard to enjoy with lots of fun things at every corner. We definitely recommend this spot and look forward to coming back next year!
This was our second time staying here. Everyone in our family absolutely loves this house. Itâs so well organized, very nicely furnished, and so thoughtfully provided with everything you need, from the super well equipped kitchen, to the comfortable beds, nice towels, soaps, shampoo and conditioner etc. in the bathrooms. The back yard has a great deck with nice furniture and a beautiful view of the river. None of us wanted to leave!
Our two families had the best time at this Property! It was the perfect location for all our hikes and dinners out in downtown Marquette! Would Highly recommend this home! And i know our group will be booking again next year! Our older boys loved kayaking and bike riding on the trails! The host of this property was very accommodating and got back to us very quickly with questions. 5 stars all the way around!
We had a nice stay. This was the most thoughtfully laid out place we have stayed at. There were plenty of towels, kitchen items, spices, etc. which is usually not the case. It felt like someone just opened their home and said please respectfully help yourself to our home. The place could be cleaner and kept up better, but it was very accommodating for our large family. We loved the kayaks and bikes!
The house was very clean and bright.The temperature was unseasonable HOT (90). The host had placed two window AC units in top floor windows. The host had top notch bathroom/shower products.Childrens toys were a great addition to exterior playground.Boats and bikes were put to extensive use.
Excellent home for an extended family stay in Marquette
This is a very nice home and property just a few minutes from downtown Marquette. Itâs easy to find and access; and itâs a convenient location for going wherever you need to in the area. The home sleeps 8 very comfortably, but you could sleep 3 in a King and 2-3 or 4 more in the trundles (if youâre on friendly terms ). And thereâs room for two more on the couches, if the hosts allow that. So I suppose 12 could squeeeze in there, if needed. There is a crib room, as well, next to one of the bedrooms. One note to be aware of: there are no bedrooms on the main floor (except perhaps the couches). There is a half bath. So our 91 year old did need help up the stairs to a bedroom. It was still worth the effort. Valerie is an attentive host and outfitted the home with every single thing a large family needs. Just bring your toothbrush, practically. Our family really enjoyed using the bikes on the nearby trail and the kayaks on the lagoon and out into Lake Superior. We also toasted marshmallows in the fire pit and enjoyed the hot tub. The backyard is beautiful, with chipmunks, cottontails, squirrels, birds of all kinds. Really a nice place. Marquette doesnât typically need air conditioning, so the home is cooled by the weather. Itâs heated of course and thereâs a nice gas fireplace in the living room. We enjoyed it on the cold day. The house is very open and has an airy feel - due to all the well-placed and large windows. Lots of light! Very good, pleasant feel to the house.
We rented this place to house my daughter and her wedding party. Since the ring bearer was 3, the space was amazing for him! The rest of us enjoyed the beautiful view and many walks along the path that is right there. It was perfect!
We stayed at the home, to be close to NMU and attend our Sons graduation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, even the Grandma and Grandpas felt comfortable in the home! They really were interested in the homes history! We loved the view, the hot tubâŠgreatly stocked kitchen, and the full baby set up( but our granddaughter last minute, could not make the trip with her mom and dad, those were definite draws to our choosing the home!
The house was great, welcoming, clean, great views and bonus fresh snow to play in. Grandsons age 10 and 7 enjoyed skiing with Grandpa and parents while Grandma played with 2 1/2 year old in yard and house. There were TOYS and a good crib and fresh snow.
We had a wonderful stay at Valerieâs property in Harvey! We enjoyed the brand new hot tub and quick access to the snowmobile trails! 5 stars and we certainly will try to be back soon!!
My husband and I stayed up in Marquette for a long weekend. We pulled the trailer with our side-by-side and had space in the driveway to do that. The house was very clean but does have a little bit of a musty smell on the main floor and downstairs. The master bathroom is awesome! It even had everything you needed in the tub like shampoo and soap. The king size bed in the master bedroom is extremely soft, which we struggled with a little bit as we are not used to that! We would have loved a television in the bedroom as well, but it didnât make or break our stay. The kitchen is updated and has everything you need. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here. It is a beautiful location and if we wouldâve brought our kids, they would have enjoyed the very cute playset. Thank you to the owners for providing this space to people!
The property was very sufficient for our needs and wants. The hot tub was a lot of fun. The veiw and privacy on the back yard was great. I hope we have the opportunity to stay here again.
The home was exactly as described and offered a lot of amenities that made the experience great when we weren't out exploring Marquette and the surrounding area! Great place to book with a large group of friends and family!
The stay was amazing. We had everything we needed and had a great time as a family. The property was even closer to downtown Marquette than I thought which made access to it along with lots of trails and beaches super easy. We enjoyed Harborfest, strongly recommend the Marquette Farmer's market, had an amazing kitchen to cook in, and this property was perfect if travelling with an infant. We had our 11 month old daughter with us and the crib room was perfect for her. It got dark enough even for naps during the day which is crucial as parents know. Highly recommend the property, I can't say enough good things about it.
We stayed here in fall of 2022 for a visit with our NMU student. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy family time with distant college students. The kitchen is one of the best stocked of all the places weâve stayed, making it easy to do home cooked meals.
House is quiet and the view of the water from everywhere in the house makes for a great way to start and end the day. Access to the Iron Ore Heritage Trail is great for walking and biking. Loved it!
