Wonderful place to stay in Big Bay!
The Big Bay getaway was a wonderful experience overall! On arrival the place was spotless and check-in was simple. I found there were plenty of supplies (pans, dishes, towels) and anything else one would need to enjoy a relaxing stay. There were also some great amenities. The backyard is cozy and relaxing with the fire pit, string lights, and grill. You also must try the sauna! Not only is it relaxing, it's a staple of any U.P. camp experience. The location of the home is also convenient. It's within walking distance to the Thunder Bay Inn restaurant, local churches, the Big Bay Pathway, and the park. I would definitely recommend this home if you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and convenient place to stay in Big Bay!

Northern Michigan Parents moving our daughter in.
It is a bit out of Marquette, maybe 30 min. It is a great place if you are okay with the drive. Personally, I had no issues, it was very nice and the owner very responsive. We had no issues while there. It is in walking distance, about a block, from the restaurant and and local bar. It was quiet and the back yard is super nice! Thank you for a great stay!
