Would definitely stay here again!

2 geezer couples up for a relaxing weekend of fall color, hikes, and hanging out. House was comfy cozy, nicely laid out, had everything we needed at an attractive price. In and out easily, good access. Very good communication with Joe. House has one double bed so one couple ended up on twin beds, not a problem for us, we knew going in. Bottom line, enjoyed our stay, house was great.

Perfect stay

From check-in to check-out, the stay was seamless. Communication with the host was simple and quick. The house was just as described and fit our needs perfectly. There were three adults and a dog on this stay. It had every plate, utensil, pot and pan and appliance we needed. There were a lot of the staples you might need, but forgot to bring, in the cupboards. The house was filled with lots of nice touches from a CD with a good selection of music, tv set-up, WiFi, nice decorations and plenty of maps, books and information for the surrounding area. The house is a short walk to downtown Bessemer making it very convenient. When it came to touring, it was a ten minute drive to Ironwood. We were able to reach the Presque Isle River hiking trail in 30 minutes and get to the Lake of the Clouds in the Porcupine Mountains in one hour.The stretch of Lake Superior as you entered the Porkies was easily accessible and quite nice. We will be back in a year or two and will not hesitate to stay here if it is available.

Just Like Home

We had a great time staying at the house in Bessemer. It felt cozy and comfortable. After a day of being out hiking to waterfalls and spending time looking for agates on the beaches, it felt just like coming home. The neighborhood was quiet and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Cozy and convenient

I loved my stay in this cozy house in Bessemer. The house had everything I needed for a week-long stay. It felt more like staying with family than staying in a sterile, sparsely-furnished rental. Everything I could have imagined was provided. The host was very helpful and communicative. I hope to visit again next summer.

Wonderfull little home

The home 2as very clean, organized, a lot of things, like a ninja blender, air fryer, spices, etc. The oven is a little slow to heat up. The stairs are a bit steep and short so beware, but it is an old house. The bathroom shower head is a bit short, and the bathroom upstairs is very narrow, not suited for tall or wide. The yard looked nice, didnt get to use all amenities as we were using this as a base to our other daily activities. The owner was very kind on short minute notices, it was very secure and safe. I would highly recommend this property.

Great place!

We have stayed several times in the UP and this was our favorite property. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and we saw several deer walking around and an old sweet black lab that walks around the block. Host is always available and you can communicate with him at any time. The internet is very good for any remote workers or gamers, you will be just fine. We were able to DoorDash meals which was such a convenience, as we own a restaurant and didn’t want to have to cook. But if you do want to, everything you need is there with a lot of spices available. We will be back!

Cute house

The house was cute and had everything we needed. It was also super clean. It’s in a perfect location as well. My only complaint, which is not the owners fault, is the amount of junk you see in the neighbors yard looking outside the window. Also, the fireplace is great for cold nights.

Excellent home base for skiing

This house was clean, comfortable and came with lots of thoughtful “extras” like a well-stocked kitchen and soaps in the bathroom. It has tons of character, too! The neighborhood was quiet and only a 10-15 minute drive from ski hills. Joe was very responsive to inquiries and made us feel welcome during our stay. We would love to return!

Pure Michigan in the UP

This miner’s cottage provided my family with an authentic UP experience! We were only a few minutes away from Big Powderhorn and Snow River skiing. The location is also close to the Black River National Scenic Byway and area eateries in Ironwood and Bessemer. The property itself provided plenty of room for my family including three teens. The cottage is comfortable, cozy, and just the right amount of rustic to remind you that you are up North. The owner keeps the property well stocked allowing you to focus more on fun than shopping. This property would be perfect for hosting a group of skiers, sledders, hikers, or ATVers. The owner was an active communicator and showed genuine interest in our enjoying our stay. The location is in a quiet neighborhood in Bessemer, MI. Be aware that Bessemer is a small town that is working its way back from it hay days as a mining community. It can look a little worn and rough in places. Many of us have come to appreciate that as the story of the UP and consider it part of the experience. Just be prepared for quaint and rustic vs a glitzy resort vibe.

Great stay.

We would highly recommend staying here for anyone traveling near or around the Porcupine Mountains with pets. This place has everything one wound need and than some, we especially enjoyed the indoor wood burning fireplace during the Fall season. Joe checked on us throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. We especially liked the fact the home had been within short distances to the beautiful waterfalls in the area.

Roomy Cabin Feel

You have a large blended family; so, finding accommodations in a typical hotel, just won’t do. Traveled for a family wedding on my side and all of the family enjoyed this place; not an easy feat with my step kids. We didn’t have much time but enjoyed that they were games available for all ages and a nice roomy open living & dining space. We hope to return here again sometime.

Our home away from home

Where to begin with this property. To start we had been searching for about a good week as well as calling or emailing hotels and motels trying to get rates and quotes for our week. As we were searching, every time we'd come back, we kept coming back to this property. We finally bit the bullet and started taking a harder look at it. This was my initial contact with Joe, the property owner. Joe was more than gracious in answering our questions. Reservation was painless and so easy. Joe continued to answer any and all questions we had before we arrived. The instructions for check in and general rules were very clear and concise. There was a book with the same rules plus some extra things, plus a guide to local menus and establishments. The home far exceeded our expectations. It was cozy, simple, and perfectly suited our needs. Check out was just as easy and perfect after a long weekend. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking in the area. We plan on utilizing this property as soon as we return to the area.
