Wonderful

It was well meeting good place to stay. It was convenient to being so close to Marquette, and I suppose the only downside would be the traffic driving down US 41.
The whole property seemed to be nicely updated-paint, furnishings, appliances, etc. The Birchy is also conveniently located. We would definitely stay at The Birchy again.
Great host communication and nice comfortable bed. Bathroom could use a bleach clean but not “dirty”. Loved staying here and would definitely come back!
This place was perfect for the type of traveler (like me) who doesn't need a ton of frills, but a nice, comfortable home base while you see the sights, for a reasonable price. Being dog friendly helped a ton, and my dog loved having the Iron Ore Heritage Trail right across the highway. Will definitely come back!
Cute collection of cottagey-style rooms right by the water. Ample parking, spacious and clean room with comfortable beds. There was a fire pit guests could use as well as several Adirondack chairs and a few hammocks
Amazing stay. Daughter was so happy to have her own room. Planning next trip already. Great location when visiting my hometown. Nice outdoor area. Great for pets.
The room was really nice, surprisingly quiet being on the highway. Town was close for anything you wanted. Wish there were extra garbage bags in the room. Loved the balcony!
Easy check-in, great views of Lake Superior, clean room and bathroom, comfy bed, AC worked well, happily surprised there was a fridge, and a quick trip into Downtown Marquette! 5/5
