Property Description
A true piece of majestic grandeur on Lake Superior near the Porcupine Mountains. A stunning home nestled in a coastal boreal forest with full access to a private nature sanctuary and beach at the mouth of the Mineral River on Lake Superior! Eight hundred feet of frontage on the Mineral River, great for paddling and fishing and 400 feet of beach on Lake Superior, perfect for summer days with kids. No other homes are within sight anywhere on the property. This truly feels like your own private wilderness. There are newly constructed boardwalks and nature trails, making the beach and property easily accessible.
Located a stone's throw from the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park with a beach that continues for a quarter mile onto public land. Don't miss a stay at the most stunning accommodation in the region.
Guests will have full access to the entire house. Upstairs rooms have views of Lake Superior through the forest! This nature-themed eco-lodge has everything needed for a great vacation in the U.P. with a spectacular beach and access to the Mineral River, private nature trails, and boardwalks. A great place for kids and adults with 5 separate rooms with guest accommodation, plus common areas, 3 porches, and a gas Weber grill available for use. A 1/3 mile nature trail/boardwalk system through the enchanting forest and across swale wetlands was completed in spring 2020.
The kitchen has a large island with three chairs for additional dining, an electric stove, a large microwave, a dishwasher, and a full-size fridge. The cupboards are fully stocked with dishes, dish towels, pots, pans, utensils, and silverware - pretty much everything you would need for meal prep/cooking, including a coffee pot. Eco-friendly dish soap will be provided. An upstairs bunk bed with some toys for kids makes it great for families. A closet with games and additional toys and two spacious living areas downstairs are ideal for low-key social events and family gatherings. However, large gatherings, such as weddings, are not allowed on the property due to possible impacts on the driveway, septic, and beach.
Bonus: a shipwreck sits just offshore within easy reach of experienced kayakers and paddleboarders.
This is very private! No houses/neighbors can be seen from the residence or anywhere on the property. The house is a short walk (100 ft) from your own slice of sandy beach in a coastal boreal forest which is contiguous with the most beautiful beach in the Porcupine Mountains with natural sand dunes. Only minutes from Lake of the Clouds and countless beautiful hikes and waterfalls in the state park, the Ottawa National Forest and beyond! There are plenty of restaurants and a few stores about a mile away in Silver City, yet when you are here it certainly feels like the wilderness with the continuous roar of Gitche Gumee. The nearest snowmobile trail is less than a mile away.About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About customRules:No pets unless approved by owners.

Unfortunately, we never received arrival information and the host was unreachable/non-responsive until after our check in time and we had to drive to an area with wifi to reach out to Expedia/VRBO for resolution. While on the phone with customer support to initiate their cancellation process in this situation, the host returned my call (******* had shared their contact info when we tried to get check in information earlier in the day). That said, after waiting nearly 2 hours to get in with groceries for the stay, we were finally able to access the house. If you are looking for a place to stay for outdoor enjoyment - the beach, river, natural area - this property delivers. For our stay, however, we found cleaniness of the property to be an issue. Both bathrooms had mold issues on the enclosure, abundance of spider webs throughout the house - window sills, ceiling corners, light fixtures, etc. And although I appreciate not being wasteful, much of the re-usable items left from previous renters were well past their expiration date (e.g. items in the fridge, medicine in the bathrooms, etc.). We also found some of the kitchen items, like the cooking pots and knifes, in need of updating. We resorted to cutting tomatoes with a steak knife and the non-stick pans were well past their non-stick performance (scrambled eggs were not a compatible choice for the condition of the pans). The property also does not have any window blinds for privacy (for post beach changing, etc.)

Lovely home with spectacular setting. The weather was great, too, and we swam in Lake Superior and played and paddled on the river every day. Plenty of room for 6 adults and 4 kids. A great place to make memories.

We enjoyed the stay a lot. Lake Superior never disappoints. More prestay communication with the manager would be good but otherwise it was an excellent experience.

Peaceful Setting - Great View
Perfect location to visit Porcupine Mountains. We really enjoyed being able to photograph the Northern Lights over Lake Superior right from the property.
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
