Property Description
The Miner is beautifully remodeled, and centrally located in historic Hancock MI. The the famed Jack Stevens snowmobile trail #17 is located directly across the street, offering easy access to hundreds of miles of groomed trails taking you across Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
We provide easy access to Houghton (1.6 miles), Michigan Tech (2.3 miles), Finlandia University (.3 miles), and historic Calumet is only 13.8 miles away.
Please note that we are located along Lincoln St (US41) and the snowmobile trail. I would hate to lose your business because of it, but I would rather make sure you are happy with your stay. If you are a very light sleeper, other accommodations might be better suited for your needs. If want to be in the middle of everything, I have no doubt that you will love it!

Houghton-Hancock Repeat Customer
We continue to graduate our progeny from nearby MTU, and The Miner has become a favorite place to stay to help celebrate the accomplishment.Always clean, easy to get to, effortless to stay. Everything we can hope for in an area with limited hotel/motel rooms. This time both grandmas traveled with us and they appreciated the one story layout, easy egress and mining-themed decorations!

The Miner
Great spot, centrally located to access fun spots all over the UP. Cold AC and comfy beds! Only downside was road noise as it’s right on the main drag in Hancock.

Wonderful place!
We didn’t spend much time at the cabin but had everything we needed and more. The beds were comfy and all the decor is so cute. We loved it and would rent again. The road is a little noise starting at and 5:30am.

Well equipped stay, great property
We had a great trip to Hancock and look forward to visiting the area again. The Miner is a great property, best equipped VRBO or AirBB I’ve stayed at ! The only thing that didn’t work well for us was the noise. We are early to bed and early to rise. The property is on a very busy street and the trail was more active with snowmobiles than we expected. The property is awesome but if you’re looking for a quiet spot this isn’t for you.

Hancock's Gateway to the Copper Country
This was my second stay at the Miner. Love the location (I lived in Hancock as a student), easy getting to MTU's campus and on the way out of town toward the Keweenaw. What more could you want?
The Miner is clean, comfortable, warm (can be important in the UP) and spacious. I'm in Houghton/Hancock frequently - looking forward to staying here again.
