- "Kate was helpful, and easy to talk to. The listing was accurate, clean, and accommodating for the six of us." - "Great location with easy access to Pictured Rocks and Marquette. Kate’s place was as advertised and was very clean. Kitchen had all of the necessities. We would definitely stay again if in the area." - "Very easy check-in. Great communication. Convenient location. Nice neighborhood on the lake. Due to Covid-19 we had no issues at all with parking due to having a small business across the street. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch with our morning coffee and being able to hear the birds and see the sun shining on the lake. It was super convenient to have a washer and dryer available and two bathrooms. The beds seemed to vary from firm to medium. There's a small grill and propane available as well.

- "I was super happy with the whole experience at this cabin. Clean, new, and close to everything we wanted to do: hike, visit waterfalls and Lake Superior, go to the Ice Festival, and Eben Ice Caves. These being seperate units, they were super quiet. We didn't hear our neighbors at all. The windows let in the natural beauty right outside the door, and has ample windows for natural light. I read someone comment they thought the mattress was thin, i didn't find that to be true. They may have updated them, but the master bed had a thick memory foam mattress. Had a great time, and definitely will stay again. "

- "We wanted a place near Pictured Rocks National Seaside to stay so we could explore Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Our VRBO hostess helped us for many months before our arrival and made excellent recommendations. We booked kayaking, hiked all over and had an exciting Riptide boat excursion! After each adventure, we went back to the house and enjoyed the beautiful property and the swimming pool with all the floatations and comfy lounge chairs. One night we grilled and had a lovely patio dinner. This whole visit was just what you’d want in a great vacation from before we even arrived to the time we checked out! And the house interior was so nicely designed , furniture comfy and nice big kitchen and great bedrooms and bathrooms. Just exceptional!"

This cottage is located 2 blocks from M28 and the Casino in Christmas MI. Public beach is within a mile and Pictured Rocks is only a 10 minute drive. There are two bedrooms (both Queen beds) and two full bathrooms. The couch does fold out for additional sleeping. One bathroom is a nice full sized master bath, and the other bathroom is small, it has a bathtub/shower, toilet and sink that is clean and functional, but very small. (did I mention it's small? ) The Living room is spacious and has seating for everyone. The kitchen is fully stocked as any normal home would be, including pots and pans, plates, utensils etc.... It includes everything one would need to cook for 6 people. All linens are included, (sheets, pillows, blankets, towels) Paper towels and toilet paper, gas grill with propane, garbage bags, hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent and softener as well as coffee filters for our regular drip coffee maker. We don't provide toiletries.

The home has a furnace and air conditioning to keep you comfortable. Easy access to everything in our area. Cabin is perfect for guests looking to have a home base centrally located to all our area has to offer. Wifi is provided. There is a garage in the pictures that is on the cabins property, (which you park in front of) however, it is not available for your use, sorry. There is not much yard at this property and out front , not much either.

ATV riders will appreciate the close proximity to the trail and gas station. For those looking to hike, bike and kayak, the trails and waterfalls are within 20 minutes and the river is just blocks away. Pictured Rocks Cruise is 10 minutes away.

In response to reviews, I feel it necessary to point out the following:
One of the two bathrooms is very small, please do not expect it to be big, as it is small like stated. It is a fully functioning bathroom, but it is small. Like small.....
The Cabin WILL sleep up to 6, but you do need to tell us you are actually going to be bringing the amount of people you intend to bring. We setup the cabin for the number of guests provided to us. For example, if you say 4 guests, we will set it up for 4, if you say 4 and bring 6, then don't expect accommodations for 6.

The cabin is closed during the winter, it is very possible that you may have a hint of "mustinesss" , especially during the spring. I assure you, that does not make this place unclean, it's just inevitable when you close a home up for 7 months and it can't breathe. If the potential for "musty" offends you, please book something else that will not offend you.

One of the bathrooms is small
All in all, please don't review us less because of these things. We don't deserve less a star because you were unhappy about something you should be aware of before booking.
Thank you,
Cory

- "Nice quite neighborhood that was close to all Munising has to offer. Very roomy living area. We all enjoyed it very much. Discounted kayak rentals were a big hit. Didn’t plan to kayak and it was one of the highlights of the trip." - "My 12 year old son and I stayed for two nights. Charming place with everything you need. Owner was helpful when we stopped by his local business. Great value for a small group." - "People around their were nice"

We were worried about being so close to all this boat action but ended up finding the view and all the activity very fun to watch. Everything was clean and comfortable. We were out on the water most days and when the weather didn't cooperate still enjoyed just sitting in the cottage watching the lake."

- "This cabin is very nice, smells like fresh cut cedar, and was perfect for the 4 of us to stay while hiking Pictured Rocks, exploring Lake Superior, and hanging out in Munising. It is very clean and a nice secluded location while also having easy access to town and trails (anywhere in 10-25 min). It is VERY open concept w one bedroom being an open loft and the other bedroom on the main floor being fully open to the kitchen. Our only suggestion would be putting a sliding barn door to add a little privacy between kitchen and bedroom. We made the open concept work but it could be awkward for others. Thanks so much for the great stay! We LOVED the area!!"

- "Great spot to stay for a day. Had a great time exploring the area." - "Finding the perfect place during high tourist season was a challenge. This studio apt was ideal for me. As a solo traveler, I look for safe, clean, comfortable and near where I want to be. All my needs were met. A S'mores kit was even provided! My only problem was learning the trick of getting the locking system to work in the bright sunshine. It took several tries. Once I knew what it was suppose to look like, I had no problems afterwards. The number pad screen was near impossible to see in the afternoon light."

Right on the property we enjoyed views of Grand Island, Sun and Moon rises, strolls on the beach, dinners on the deck, campfire, black bear sighting and the Northern lights! Our host was incredibly gracious with quick responses and helpful guidance. The yard is nicely landscaped and maintained. We appreciated the Adirondack chairs and took those down to the beach. The place was tidy with lots of fresh linens, fully equipped kitchen and grill with tools. While we didn't take advantage of the sauna, the sauna shower was fabulous! Highly recommend!"

- "We previously stayed at Water's Edge in 2017 and enjoyed our time greatly, so much that we were excited to rent this spot again for our follow up trip this year. The property manager Lisa is great with communication and response time. When we arrived, there was delicious local bread and jam for us to enjoy. The views of the water and the surrounding area are unbelievably gorgeous, the windows face east and west for great light and beautiful looks. The weather took a turn for the chilly but we were snug and cozy, the heating worked very well. Location-wise you are a very short drive into town and can access many beautiful national park areas within an hours drive of Munising. I really love how quiet and peaceful the property is."

- "What a great place! The Loft was clean and cozy. The kitchen had everything necessary to cook and serve meals. The bedding and towels were clean and good quality. The location was perfect!" - "We enjoyed our stay at the Loft. We were able to have a bonfire and room to play outside at the cabin. It is located near many great attractions so we were able to go back and forth as needed. The kids loved the spiral staircase. The cabin is pet friendly so if the odor of pets is a concern then be advised as we could smell an odor when entering the cabin, but once we were inside it didn't bother us. We didn't bring our pet but we have an indoor pet. We would definitely like to come stay again and enjoy more of Munising! "

- "The cabin is very close to a very busy road. They have noise machines but we also used a box fan to help cut the road traffic. The trails to get to the falls are very steep and rutted so be prepared if you decide to walk them. There is not a lot of hot water so be prepared to be quick (or quicker than usual). The washer and dryer and the same unit and take approximately 2.5-3 hours per load. The cabin was new and clean. Great communication. "

- "The property was beautiful and the amenities were nice. My only couple of complaints is that the windows were absolutely filthy so gazing at the stars was difficult. The hot water heater has minimal hot water. I think that could be fixed by an adjustment on the temperature dial as we had to have it on for."
