Great Year-round Activities: This location is very private in the middle of 40 acres all to yourself with a pond, trails, fantastic views, and a great house. Sit in the hot tub or head out to the very cool sauna for a special evening treat under a starlight sky. Premium satellite TV. Sleep under the skylight in the master bedroom. The house is unique with a hot tub in the sun room, a master bedroom with a skylight over the bed, fantastic views and custom black ash woodwork. The front porch features wrap around windows, pine paneling and a great sunrise view. A wood stove/fireplace is located in the central living room. Large windows on both west facing levels have a 10 mile view over the wild forests and valleys of the Keweenaw. Copper Harbor and the Porcupine Mountains (Porkies) are 1 hour away. Spring and fall have the lowest prices but still offer lots to do in town or the area. Tons of snow in the winter with great skiing and snowmoblling conditions from late Nov. to the end of March

More Details and Activities: Sauna, stocked trout pond, hot tub, hiking trails, picnic area, large deck, microwave, dishwasher, all kitchen accessories, washer-dryer, basketball hoop, satellite TV, etc. etc., just bring food for an incredible time in the Keweenaw. This is a very unique property with absolute privacy. There are incredible starry views out skylights in the master bedroom and the hot tub room. Northern lights are common, especially after midnight. Canoe provided for paddling on the large pond. Sit around a campfire and listen to the sounds of the night. Take a walk on the trails through the woods. Go to the University town of Houghton 12 miles away and enjoy fine dining, the great mineral museum, unique gift shops or live music. It's a town of about 15,000 with lots of charm. In the winter there are ski trails, snowmobiling areas, and the sauna outside is an absolutely incredible and private experience. We average over 15 feet of snow per year. Snowshoes are available and so are sleds!

More Guest Comments: See ecologyusa for all my details and guest comments. We just arrived home from our vacation and wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your property. Everything was perfect. We found ourselves having difficulty leaving the farm for other activities. The dogs tried to convince us to stay forever, but they had to settle for an opportunity to someday return. Going to bed with a blanket of stars overhead and waking up to deer grazing in the backyard are luxuries not experienced in Cleveland. Lisa P. We were able to watch a bobcat saunter through your back field one evening and several eagles around the pond in the mornings. D.H. Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at your Keweenaw home. Watching the deer in the morning from the deck and then watching for shooting stars at night was big fun. The weather was near perfect all the while we were there so we were able to enjoy the great outdoors. What a great place to get away from it all. R.K.

Guest Book: Just a quick note to let you know we very much enjoyed the home and property. We especially liked sitting on the deck, canoeing and 'Playing' in the pond, and your skylight over the bed. We also appreciated the fact that we only did need to bring food to make the visit complete. Your cleaning and grounds-person do a great job! Our dogs have never had the chance to roam a large parcel or play in water and they didn't want to leave. As we were packing the car, one actually started walking down the driveway and refused to come back! D. P. Just wanted to let you know we had a fantastic time at your home. It was absolutely beautiful there with the views. The house was fabulous and only took a very short time for us to feel right at home. Thanks for everything and we hope we can return next year. It was probably our best trip to the U.P. S.N. We had a wonderful time at the house! It's so great. The house has such a comfortable feel that we really had a relaxing vacation. Y.B.
