Remote & Peaceful Getaway w/ Games in Eckerman

Reviews

• 5/5

  Central location for our family of 4 to stay while visiting the area (Tahquamenon Falls, Soo Locks, Kitch-iti-kipi, Munising/Pictured rocks). If you find this available, definitely consider booking. There are so few options in the area unless you are camping. Two things to know, the home is right off of one of the main highways (so there is a bit of road noise) and because you are remote, there is a very slow DSL Internet connection (15-20 Mbps download/1-2 upload), with no cell coverage for AT&T, T-Mobile or Verizon. Good news is if you drive 5 mins in either direction, your cell coverage will improve (though just generally spotty in the UP area). And while we picked up groceries in St Ignace, there was (kind of randomly) a McDonalds and Pizza Hut about 15 mins down the road. The home was huge and there is plenty of room, 2.5 bathrooms, and the mini split AC was in the family room and worked exceptionally well (we kept the basement door open) with no issues in 85 degree days. Each bedroom also had a radiant baseboard heater (which we didn’t use). Would absolutely stay here again!

  My small group of 3 stayed at this property in July. Check in was very easy. The home is comfortable and clean. The kitchen is outfitted well and the bed that I used was very comfortable. The location is very rural but makes for a nice mid way location to St. Ignace, the bridge, Tahquamenon Falls, etc. We actually even saw shooting stars from the back deck. I would not hesitate to stay again if in the area.

• Spacious with home-like feel

  4/5

  The home was nice and open and provided room for all 7 of us. It felt very home-like and comfortable. The home was well stocked with necessary items. The only issue was the AC was not working and we were not informed of the issue until a couple hours prior to check in.

• Perfect place for a friend’s reunion

  5/5

  Property was great for six friends regathering after ten years to go snowmobiling. Perfect location to the trail… short run into Hulbert for fuel, food, and beverages. House was well equipped and all the amenities we needed.
