Fully equiped apartment. Our quiet retreat is perfect for couples.

Located on 5 wooded acres in Marquette County, yet close enough to the city of Marquette (4 miles away) to bike ride in for dinner. Our quiet retreat is perfect for couples. The apartment is located in the lower level or our home and was completed in 2017. It has a private entrance, parking area and separate patio with barbecue grill.
A comfortable King size bed is located in a carpeted bedroom, which has a beautiful view of a perennial garden and forest. The living room and full kitchen are tastefully decorated with original artwork. comfortable furnishings, and TV with DISH network. A birch tree theme bathroom has a tile floor and quartz vanity top.

Our location provides easy access to The Iron Ore Heritage Trail, a non-motorized county wide trail network, and the Noquemonon South Mountain Bike Trails. Miles of sand beach are just minutes away. Visitors can kayak, canoe, sail, and fish on nearby lakes and rivers. Lake Superior is only one mile away. Marquette Mountain ski area is about 4 miles away. Blueberry Ridge cross country ski area is about 4 miles away.

Quiet, clean, and beautiful scenery
Lynn and Eric were fantastic hosts. We were visiting for our 2nd wedding anniversary. Quiet, clean, and beautiful scenery. It was easy to find and close to downtown. We spent our time hiking and exploring Marquette, and really appreciate Lynn and Eric’s help when we ended up in a bind. Highly recommend!

Quiet stay
Lynn and Eric were attentive to my needs and let me enjoy their cornacopia of flower beds on the hillside gardens. The patio was my favorite place to enjoy the forest with my morning coffee and evening wine. The home was very clean and organized. I would stay here again.

UP retreat
This is a nice enough little apartment but it had a few inadequate little things wrong. For instance the shower is not very good for a handicapped person. Not set up right . Even with the shower chair I had a hard time showering. The living room couch was not very comfortable with sinking down in the cushions. The kitchen was very nice .the best part about this place was the garden and the flowers. We did get to see quite a few wild animals overall it was a very nice place
