Absolutely delightful home. Ideally situated just steps from a gorgeous beach and perfectly appointed with all the necessities. In truth, though, we spent most of our time on the nice deck and around the backyard firepit. And of course Lake Superior and the spectacular sunsets!

The property was amazingly well-stocked with necessities and kitchen ware, pantry supplies, beach accessories. The location was in close proximity to town and easily accessible to Lake Superior beach walks. The owner was easy to contact with questions. It met our needs very well.

Just like our family cottage What a comfortable and lovely cottage! Reminded us of our 100-year old family cottage in Wisconsin--and just as satisfying, as was our long beach walks. Thanks for the hospitality!

Short Walk to the Beach Make sure you read the description of this 3 bedroom cottage very carefully. The upstairs bedroom with updated bathroom was spacious and nice. The bedroom downstairs has limited space but clean. The main living area is small with seating for maybe 3 people but there is a big dining table to enjoy. There are a lot of books and games to choose from. I was disappointed that there was not a 3rd bedroom but instead pullout couch on the enclosed porch. I should have read the description more carefully. The kitchen has it challenges with very low counters but it was well stocked. Pans were on the thin side. My husband and two adult sons did appreciate the backyard with chairs and firewood provided. While you are very close to the lake, there is not what I would call a beach view. We did enjoy the short walk to the beach in the evening and saw a gorgeous sunset. We also enjoyed a short walk to Roxey's in the evening for dinner a couple of times. I took a walk on the beach one foggy morning and had it all to myself. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and really enjoyed the quiet small town atmosphere along the lake.

Ontonagon Gem Older cottage but cute and well kept. Good for families as separate bedrooms and bathrooms are private. Good location, within easy walking distance to downtown. Close to Porcupine Mountain State Park. Would recommend.
