We both were frazzled from life and after a 14 hour trip to Eagle River, it was pure heaven! The house was immaculate. It is spacious and very tastefully and minimally decorated to reflect the area and history. The kitchen had everything! Our favorite room was the “library,” with an absolutely stunning view of the lake, sunsets, and town. We opened both French doors and had the most delicious west-east breeze all day and night.(I even slept there 2nights!) The drives to Eagle Harbor and Copper Harbor were easy and scenic, with numerous places to pull off to explore and take pictures. Never once turned on the TV. The books were fantastic The bed was super-comfortable. I even spotted 2 large Yooperlites about 3-4 feet out in the surf one night, but due to my unsteady footing, could not reach them.
The only suggestion I would have (and this coming from one with unsteady walking) is to have non-slip strips on the edges of the steps leading down into the lower rooms. The painted steps can be slippery in sock feet.
We will be sharing our stay with friends and highly recommending this place to others. Thank you for the experience!
