The Penny House: CLEAN with garage, one block from trails & stores

Cozy 3 bedroom, 1 bath house completely remodeled top to bottom with all amenities you would need. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed in the lower level of the house, bedroom 2 is a full size bed in the upper level of the house, and bedroom 3 has 2 twin beds in the upper level of the house. The house has two air conditioning units (Seasonal). Fully equipped kitchen and washer/dryer. One car long garage to park vehicles, ATVs, snowmobiles and water crafts. The garage is especially useful in the event of unexpected mechanical issues where working indoors will keep you out of the elements. The house is near 585 miles of ATV trails, 3000 miles of snowmobile trails, 30-45 minutes from multiple ski hills, Porcupine Mountain National Park, Bond Falls, Agate Falls, and hiking trails. The house is a block away from the snowmobile and ATV trails, grocery store, gas station, restaurants and bars.

Great little getaway

Great place to stay all around. Room was cozy and exactly as pictured. Took advantage of the lodges pool/hot tub post ski and kids had a great time at the small arcade, ice rink, or just wandering around the village. Ski valet was great and not having to get up early, deal with parking and lug everything to the mountain was worth the price of staying here vs saving a bit off mountain.

Splendor in the North.

The Penny house is an adorable place to stay in a little area of heaven. I have stayed all over the UP in my years of snowmobiling but this was by far my favorite. Clean and welcoming. I will definitely be back. Thank you Sandy
