Nice Cottage on the UP
This home was compact, but very clean and had many thoughtful touches like well-placed night lights, a good bread knife, etc. The hosts checked in with us to be sure we had no problems and we were doing fine. The home is on a highway, so there is a bit road noise, but it is located so that neither Copper Harbor or Houghton seemed too far to go. The house book had some good recommendations for restaurants and we had a nice meal at Fitzgerald's. It was great to have the ability to do some laundry while we were there. We were there in early May, so some things were not open (Slim's,for example), but then we did not have tourist crowds and traffic to deal with, so we still had a good stay.

cute little house
We enjoyed our stay at this cute little house. It's very tastefully decorated and had everything our family of 5 needed. It's conveniently located about halfway between Houghton and Copper Harbor, where we spent most of our time. Also, Slim's Cafe across the street serves a great breakfast.

UP vibes
The property was nice and clean. You could travel anywhere im 30 minutes. Very nice for small number of people. I would recommend a mew sofa bed. The springs are felt and it has lost it's integrity to support a good night's sleep. For people with disabilities especially those wheelchair dependent, it may not be the best proper property. The hallways are narrow and zig zag. Someone would need to assist and if it is a wide based wheelchair definitely cannot make it to the back of the home. Maybe pictures of the hallway would be helpful for people when viewing the property. Also doorways measurements vould be helpful as well. Every situation is different so be sure to ask for more information. The property owners are great and helpful.

Agate hunters
We visited many beaches looking for agates and pretty rocks. We ate at Petersons for our favorite whitefish. We had delicious bloody marys at Schutes Bar. We had scrumptious pizza in Eagle River. We fed a few mosquitoes and froze a few feet in beautiful Lake Superior. We stopped to see the monks and bought great bread at the Wood'n Spoon. We had a wonderful time and hope to come again.

Nice location
Great location for our small group of four. We snowmobiled and enjoyed being able to leave right from the yard with easy trail access and parking room for a trailer. Slims cafe is a hidden gem. We enjoyed their fresh cinnamon buns and pasties to go. Great spot for breakfast and the service is great! Glacia Tavern is right next door and has a great selection of beverages and great food. Be sure to call ahead for a reservation. Houghton is about a 20 minute drive and offers some great places to visit. We checked out Keweenaw Brewing for some great craft beers. The Embassador has some of the best pizza and is highly recommended. Overall I would rate this place 5 stars. Second time here and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The Trail House was awesome! It was spotless and there were enough blankets on the bed along with extra options for more if needed. This might sound crazy, but the heater in the house kicked butt! Entertainment options were fantastic! The only suggestion I would make is to add a hook directly outside the shower so the person inside the shower can have a ready towel available. Thanks for a terrific stay! Your tip on the Glacia Bar and Grill next-door was fantastic! That food was to die for. Hope to see you again someday.

Perfect stay! Northern lights!
We love the western Keweenaw beaches and this was the perfect location for a getaway to a lot of beaches within an hour. East & west! We were so fortunate to see the Northern Lights twice during our week stay! The house is very clean! Pics don't do it justice. Sun comes in the living room to welcome another day! Nice natural light in the kitchen too. The deck is very nice overlooking a nice "wilderness" setting. Restaurants! 2! One across the street open until 2. Bar & grill "next door" open in the evenings. All there was left to do was kick back and enjoy everything Keweenaw!

Awesome stay
The trail house is a perfect stay for a getaway in the beautiful Keweenaw peninsula. The house is super clean, provides enough space for 4 adults and is in a perfect location. Close enough to everything you need and away enough to get some quiet time also. Check in and check out is super easy. The beds are very comfortable and the communication with the host is excellent! Thank you Bette for all your patience and willingness to answer all our silly questions:) Trail house has everything you need and even a beautiful porch with BBQ to sit out at night and look for northern lights. We had to smile a little about ourselves, I guess we are spoiled trolls ( living below the bridge) and we dearly missed our AC. But after a day we got kinda used to the cozy 82 degrees in the house. We were mighty thankful for the fans provided! Thank you! Without a question or second thought: we will be back!

Economical and had everything we needed
We were looking for a place on the Kewanee Peninsula, in or near Copper Harbor, to serve as a home base for our mountain biking trip. We needed something with two bedrooms, cell service/WiFi, a washer and dryer, a full kitchen, and ideally, some nearby eating establishments. The Trail House met all of those needs. It's about 30 minutes to Copper Harbor and it's located on a fairly busy roadway, so this isn't the place for you if you're looking for something with a view on the water. However, it has a peaceful backyard and a small propane grill on a sizable deck -- and as other reviewers have pointed out, it's directly next door to a restaurant/tavern with decent food and across the street from a breakfast spot with outstanding cinnamon rolls made fresh daily. For a basic-yet-comprehensive base of operations at a great price, the Trail House hits the mark.

This house is so cozy and was sparkling clean! Nice little deck out the back. We came to bike Copper Harbor and although it rained everyday, we still had a blast. Only about 25 minutes to Copper and Houghton, so perfect location! Perfect size for 1-2 couples or family with 2-3 kids. Comfy beds with cleans sheets. Cleanest VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. Dinner restraint next door and breakfast place across the street. Would highly recommend and would stay again!

Quaint house & superb location for snowmobiling
My boyfriend and I rented this place with the intention of having another couple stay with us to go snowmobiling, but it ended up being just the two of and the place was perfect. Tons of room for parking a SUV and small trailer and could easily fit another vehicle. We were able to drop the sleds there and cut through the backyard, which is a neighbors property but the owner informed me they had their ok for us to cut through. Trail 3 was right around the corner and took 1 minute to get on the trail. House was not too big or too small and had extra soap and plenty of towels etc. Owner greeted us upon arrival because she happened to be in the area and was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Also SUPER conveniently located across from a breakfast place, Slims cafe which had the best cinnamon bun I’ve ever had in my life, and also a bar/grill located two house away which also had excellent food. Will definitely come back again and recommend!
