We loved the unique spot that had so much history! Loved how spacious it was and the location in a small town, minutes from Houghton. The place was clean and ready to go. The host had maps with suggested areas to check out. We were not on a snowmobile or SxS trip, but the location is perfect for the trails in the area!

We are amazed at how big this property/apartment was and how clean it was. We have stayed in places where it wasn't as clean and this place was CLEAN. It is also spacious and well-stocked with kitchen gadgets and dishes. The bedrooms are good sizes, cozy and there are 3 of them.We only spent time there at bedtime and breakfast as we were just outside of Houghton-Hancock area and wanted to explore Copper Harbor and the Porcupine Mountains. We did have one evenjng where we watched a movie on Netflix. It was really a nice place to retreat to after a day of hiking and beach combing. We had a lovely stay and again, we were surprised at how big this place was and yet it was cozy. If we ever come back this way, we would definitely stay there again. The host, Vernon, was very quick to respond to any questions we may have. We really appreciate this! Definitely recommend!

Great Stay for Snowmobiling

Accomodations were great for our group of snowmobilers. We were able to park 2 trucks and trailers in the parking area. Shelving right inside the door was handy for organizing gear. Open floor plan and bar was great. Would stay again!

Charming and unique loft style apartment in quiet town

We really enjoyed our stay at this charming loft-style apartment in a quiet small-town building from 1910. The space was huge, with an open, airy living area that was perfect for relaxing and spending time together. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out comfortably.The apartment was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. As with any historic building, there were a few quirks—like the bathroom lighting being a bit dim and the beds being average in comfort—but overall, these were minor compared to the character and unique charm of the place.Although the listing mentioned a washer and dryer, we couldn’t find them, but we didn’t ask the owner since we didn’t really need them during our stay.If you appreciate spacious lofts with vintage character in a peaceful small-town setting, this is a great place to stay. We’d happily come back!

We stayed here while in town for our daughter’s wedding. The reception was right across the street at the Fire Hall. Obviously the location couldn’t have been any better! We had our 7 mo old grandson also and when he was fussy we had plenty of space to push him around in his stroller. Vern was a great host, very quick to respond to questions!

Another perfect stay!

It is a pleasure to stay at Vern and Victoria’s property in South Range. This is our 2nd stay, the 1st one was in August 2020, and it was another smooth trip. We enjoyed the addition of the dishwasher! The bed was comfortable, heating was just perfect even with fluctuations in outside temperatures. For the 1st time we even turned the tv on. This is a perfect location for parents who want to visit their student at Michigan Tech! Would certainly make this a three-pet when we visit our Husky next year.

Lots of character

Our family enjoyed our stay in South Range at this very unique rental. It takes "open concept" to a new level, in the best possible way. There was plenty of room for my husband and our four children. The property lends itself to lots of speculation about the past life of the rental, as well as conversations around all the possibilities the space has to offer. The owners were quick to communicate. The rental provided maps and other tips about "must see" things in the area. This is property is definitely a value for travelers.

Historic building makes for great getaway!

Perfect location for jumping off point to the Houghton/Hancock area. Everything was just a described. Loved the mattress topper for the double bed-very comfy. Appreciated Vern for having a slow cooker ready for our use. Vern was also speedy in responding to questions. Protocol for using unit. various nearby items of interest and checkout were very clear. Would certainly stay here again. BTW, this unit would be awesome for a group of guys/gals who love to ride trails on quads/dirt bikes/ side-by-sides as the rv trail is right next to the building! Lots of of hot water for a relaxing shower after getting off of the trails.

Might be okay for a group of local guys, but all others be warned. Hostile, run-down area next to a laundromat and dive bar. Sketchy drunk guys watching/following us. Multiple security loopholes in the access system, any of those loiterers outside could breach if they were bored and wanted to. Shoddily repaired window frames, possibly indicating a past break in. If you look at the reviews, another woman mentions people trying to break in during her stay. Finding the "murder hole" was the last straw. It's not uncommon to find tunnels connecting these old storefronts, and the fact that it had a lock for show but wasn't actually locked, nor was it ABLE to be locked made us wonder what kind of an operation is being run here. (Why would someone place a dummy lock on a door?) Appeared to be accessible to other building tenants. I've slept outside with wolves, I've slept in hostels, in Chicago and you couldn't pay me to sleep here. Even worse, when I contacted the owner and politely asked for my money back, he accused me of extortion (like I would bother extorting someone for a hundred bucks!) and insisted that nothing was wrong with the property. I fear for the safety of anyone staying here, especially since the host seems to be completely dismissive of the safety of his tenants. It's evident from the photos that he's okay with a haphazard approach to home renovation, but it's not okay to take a haphazard approach to safety, especially for women & minority tenants.
