Pictured Rocks Cottage provides you with Wi-Fi and internet streaming TV.

In the winter, hop on your snowmobile in the driveway and you can be on public trails in less than a mile. For hikers, the North Country Trail passes by the front door! And you are less than a mile from downtown Munising with plenty of food options and local breweries.

A few ants in the house, not unusual for an older home. Close to busy factory, noise all night, but not enough to keep us awake. Well stocked kitchen. Great hot water.

We enjoyed our stay in Elise and Randy‘s cottage. It was comfortable, extremely clean, had comfortable bedding, and there was great water pressure with plenty of hot water. It was also very well stocked. We did not need to communicate with the hosts while we were there because all of the information we needed was already provided which made the stay stress free. We would stay here again if in the area. One note: the stairs to the second floor where the bedrooms are and to the basement where the full sized washer and dryer are located are narrow and a bit steep. They could be troublesome for someone with mobility issues or those traveling with young children.

Cozy spot for our Pictured Rocks vacation. It's a bit of a challenge for tall people because of slanted ceilings/walls and a low shower. The house is very well stocked. Kitchen was great. There is a beautiful dock across the street with amazing views of the bay and the house has a great porch. Unfortunately there was bridge construction going on that inhibited easy access to town. Without that, however, the access would be easy.

Great Cozy Home

We loved this home, filled with fun vintage decor! The beds and couches were very comfortable. There is a full bathroom downstairs and a half bath upstairs. The bedrooms are upstairs and the only thing to be aware of is that the stairs are a bit narrow with shallow steps, but we did not have any problem with that. We had a wonderful visit!

Beautiful property and location

We truly enjoyed our vacation at this beautiful property! The house was exceptionally clean, and we loved the way it was decorated. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, town, and restaurants. As a family, we hiked nearly thirty miles over the course of our time there and had fun putting together two puzzles. The pictured rocks, hiking trails, and cool weather made for a great trip! We hope to come back soon.

Cozy Cottage if you’re looking for old time charm. Good water pressure, close to town, well stocked kitchen. Had an unexpected family emergency and had to leave a day early, but was not offered even a partial refund for the last day.

Munising getaway

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. It was a very peaceful setting, and the view of the Lake Superior Bay was very much enjoyed! Everything we needed was in the kitchen, and the mattresses were very comfortable. Extra supply of towels were provided too. I would highly recommend this home for a stay to explore the beautiful area.

A perfect place

This little gym has it all! The location is ideal for seeing the sites that the northernup has to offer. The house itself is so comfortable and filled with things you never thought you would need, but one of using. To sit on the front porch by the apple tree in bird feeders and watch the sunset is a gift

Nice Old House

The house was older than I had realized when I booked it and it had some fun quirks like varied old style hardwood floors and some cool big timber supports visible in the basement that we really enjoyed. Fun for us to stay in. Visiting in September we needed neither heat nor air but house was just a little cool at night and there was a wonderful assortment of throws available that were perfect to use. House was well stocked, comfortable and everything worked fine. The bedrooms were upstairs as was the 1/2 bath. It would have been more convenient if the full bath had been upstairs instead of downstairs but not a big deal for a few days. The bed we slept on was very comfortable. My only caution would be that the stairs are quite steep going upstairs and there was no railing on the stairs to the basement, something to be aware of if you have balance or mobility issues. Would book again.

Perfect location to everything pictured rocks!

The house was very cozy and filled with really nice artwork, collectibles, and comfy beds and couches. We utilized the fire pit and had a roaring fires a couple of nights, and utilized all the extra blankets available to us as it got plenty cold at night! Absolutely perfect location for all the hikes and water activities in pictured rocks national Lakeshore and vicinity. Would highly recommend this place, we were very comfortable and had plenty of room for four of us..
