From the moment we arrived, we could feel how thoughtfully this space was designed. It was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed—including a perfectly equipped kitchen that made it easy to cook together. Even the furniture was impressively well-chosen; the thickly padded folding chairs had a surprisingly La-Z-Boy-like comfort, making meals and laptop time genuinely relaxing.Waking up to the serene lake view and kayaking out to see the Huron Mountains reflecting on the water was a highlight we’ll never forget. The location is just secluded enough for peace and privacy but close enough to explore the area. We took advantage of the nearby waterfalls, great local hiking, and even played some pickleball at the nearby courts—you could also play tennis there if that’s your thing. The local ice cream shop and historic Thunder Bay Inn added a special small-town charm to our evenings.What made the experience extra special were the hosts. Paul and Gina were friendly, helpful, and full of great local tips. We really appreciated the waterfall guide and the chance to chat about their other unique rental properties.Between the natural beauty, the charming caboose, and the warmth of the hosts, this was easily one of our favorite getaways. Whether you’re looking to relax, paddle, hike, or just recharge, this is the perfect spot. We’ll definitely be ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5f9bf132-abb3-495b-948b-fda89c507865-1753350716277.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bbca16b5-dfea-4c8c-9b55-35ea78458d69-1753350716437.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d374b05f-4a14-41d2-abda-a9ac5893307c-1753350717726.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/50a825eb-32c5-48b8-bd18-cdbe2ba6f7a5-1753350714554.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### randy a.

Our hosts were so friendly and greeted us when we arrived, made sure we had everything we needed. We hiked around Sugarloaf Mountain, and visited the beach on Lake Superior which was awesome. Overall very cozy and beautiful location if water and woods are your thing. Close enough to Marquette to enjoy that area too. Eat at Crams cafe before heading home, it was delicious! ##### Ami B.

The location is perfect and there's a really nice park right down the road which has a nice beach and beautiful pine forest, which we unfortunately only realized on the day we were leaving. We were exploring a lot, driving around so we didn't spend too much time other than at night when we were exhausted from traveling around all day, but we loved everything about this place. The property is really nice and in an amazing spot. I think the only thing I would change is to replace the cabinet with the dishes with a love seat or something. Definitely a unique place and we would definitely stay here again in the future. ##### Jeffrey W.
