Beautiful Place, Beautiful Town
The Big House is amazing! It truly is a BIG house, with many rooms and a ton of space. Everything was in perfect condition and very clean. There were even fresh flowers throughout the house! Each morning Jon and I enjoyed a cup (or two!) of Keweenaw Coffee, which we greatly appreciated! The Big House offers everything you could ever wish for in a rental house! We truly had a wonderful time at the Big House and hope to be back soon! Thanks!

Amazing gem next to Lake Superior
This a very warm and inviting home that sits next to Lake Superior. Fantastic bedding, kitchen, bathrooms. Each bathroom was stocked with toiletries and plenty of towels. Appreciated the local coffee supply for early morning wake up! Communication with owners was easy with prompt response. I cannot stress how immaculate the home was. This is a perfect rental for a group of people. Easy walk to water and Fitzgeralds. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Absolutely perfect!
This was the second year in a row we have stayed at The Big House, and cannot say enough how amazing it truly is. It is extremely clean, has everything you need, and Jan is attentive and very timely to you if anything is needed at all. Beach chairs, towels, even a fire pit for smores at night with the kids, and sunsets over Lake Superior, you have it all. The house is beautiful, with tons of charm and character. This is our go to destination to stay anytime we will travel to copper country. If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, this is it.
