Overall this was an excellent stay. Host had pretty much everything you could need available at the cabin. He was very responsive to questions. Location was beautiful and relaxing. Lake was nice- not super busy. Cabin was decorated nicely- very modern. My only complaints would be regarding the water- I would suggest bringing your own drinking water. Sulfer smell was over-powering... the water in my glass was actually yellow-ish... didn't feel great about drinking it, but just went to the local general store and bought water bottles. Only other complaint was that the windows really needed washing- lots of cobwebs and spiders... it's such a beautiful view, that took away from it a bit. The inside of the cabin was spotless, though... I would definitely stay here again.

Really enjoyed our stay, especially the view, the beach, and all the outdoor activities in the area as well as spending time in and around the city of Marquette, its parks/harbors/waterfront and Northern Michigan University.

We had a great stay at the Eh-Frame Cottage in Big Bay, Mi. Ryan has put a great deal of thought and effort into his renovation of the cottage. From booking to checkout, Ryan was always readily available to answer any questions or issues we had. It is refreshing to stay at a property whose owners take care of the cottage the same whether they are staying or hosting guests. We enjoyed coffee on the back deck in the mornings, rode our side by sides during the day, and ended evenings with a kayak ride in the pristine lake. The setup of kayaks and fire ring by the lake are a perfect combination for a relaxing evening. We look forward to a future stay when even more renovations are complete. Thank you Ryan for such an enjoyable stay!

Nice cottage off the beaten path

I was a little disappointed with location of this cottage it showed its location address in a different location, but had to have the owner send us a latitude/longitude pin to actually find the cottage. We came up to do some fishing on the lake, but could not dock our boat to his property do to very shallow waters where this cottage is located. The cottage has a nice layout with 2 different sitting areas. The only disappointing thing was the refrigerator was not clean, otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

Ryan has done an amazing job with this remodel. He has included everything but the food in this place. We hardly wanted to leave - so we just hiked near Marquette and enjoyed the evenings by the lake. Met some friendly people on the lake while paddle boarding (we had our own). Learned the history of Henry Ford in that area, the anatomy of a murder movie, snd the Brunswick factory. Very cool area. We likely had a baby moose on the lake near us the first night. Wish we had seen it only heard it’s call. It was me and my 3 teens and we just loved every minute. Thank you again Ryan!

This house was beautiful and the area was amazing. It’s a bit far from everything and the local store didn’t have much we needed. The only thing I could have used was a washing machine but overall we had an amazing time.

This cabin was so clean and comfortable and I have never stayed in a more stocked vrbo. The owners really went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we could possibly need. I would recommend this for families who want to enjoy the beautiful UP.
