When you arrive, you will find a large off-road parking area, perfect for multiple trucks or for your toy hauler. As you enter, we hope that the feeling of home is what you are welcome with. We did our best to hold true to the mining and rustic history of the area while we restored this home. 

Our main goal was to create and inviting space that would bring family and friends together to create memories. We hope you grow to love the area and the locals as much as we do.

You will have access to the main and upper levels of the home. The basement is locked at all times and the door has a chain lock on the main level for guests comfort.

We focus on spotlighting local businesses and fill the home with many items created right here in the Keweenaw. Some of the items included are: 

- Roasted Coffee Beans (filled in our fresh grinding coffee maker)

- Jam/Jelly (a jar of our favorite flavors from locally found items)

- Drinks/Snacks/Soaps (a variety of items that we place in our welcome basket for you to enjoy during your stay)
