Everything was absolutely perfect! The picturesque cabin offered stunning views of the lake, and the sauna and hot tub were a great way to relax. It’s only a 15-minute drive to downtown Houghton, but the cabin is very secluded, making it a perfect getaway. My family and I will definitely be back in the near future!

The cabin was very homey, in a beautiful setting, and the host was very helpful and welcoming. We were impressed with the welcome basket and hand written note. Communication was excellent and the check in process was easy. The house had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. It was the perfect place to stay for our son’s graduation from Michigan Tech!

The hosts were incredibly responsive and kind - they truly thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. We were welcomed with a thoughtful treat basket, and the house itself had every amenity you could think of. The location was absolutely picturesque, and we even got to enjoy some local wildlife. It was such a peaceful, restorative trip all around. 12/10 would recommend and can’t wait to visit again!

Awesome stay!We had an amazing stay at Calm Waters Cabin during our snowmobiling trip to the Keweenaw Peninsula. The cabin was the perfect home base for our trip. After long days out on the trails, it was exactly what we needed to come back to and relax.The location is fantastic for snowmobiling, with easy access to trails and plenty of space for gear. The cabin itself was comfortable, spacious, and stocked with everything you could need. We especially appreciated how quiet and peaceful it was.Shelly was a wonderful host—she helped with our travel plans and made the entire stay smooth and easy. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Calm Waters Cabin for a winter getaway or snowmobiling trip.

We stayed here for our snowmobiling trip to the UP. This log cabin is beautiful with all the amenities. It is on the lake. The hosts are very gracious, nice people and made themselves available if we needed to contact them for anything. They have very clear instructions within the cabin and the email communication to the point of our stay, and communication as needed throughout was perfect. I highly recommend staying at this cabin if you're in the area for any vacation, winter or summer. Fabulous.

The location was perfect for respite from the hustle and bustle of city life and it was only about a 15 min drive into Hougton and Mt Ripley and about an hour (even with snowy weather and slick roads) drive to Mt Bohemia.Shelly was quick to respond when we had questions and couldn't start the fireplaced. She even had her son come out to fix it for us within a couple hours!The cabin was cozy and equipped with extra blankets, all the cooking utensils we needed to make dinners.The dry sauna was a perfect was the end a busy day of snowshoeing and skiing.
