GREAT place!

Our family really enjoyed staying at Furnace Lake Overlook. We particularly enjoyed the outdoors, as there was plenty of property for the kids to enjoy, a beautiful view of Furnace Lake and cozy spaces where to sit outside. The host was superb and proactive, and provided us with the baby items we needed. The location is excellent!

Perfect Vacation

This property is fantastic! If you choose this gem you will not be disappointed. Close to many fun things to do and beautiful sites. Back at the home there is a gorgeous over look out onto lake that can be viewed when swimming in the pool, out on the deck, and yes, even from in the house! I loved looking up at the stars while unwinding at the fire pit and pond at night. Thank you so much so sharing your home! We will be back for sure!

Furnace Lake Overlook

We wanted a place near Pictured Rocks National Seaside to stay so we could explore Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Our VRBO hostess helped us for many months before our arrival and made excellent recommendations. We booked kayaking, hiked all over and had an exciting Riptide boat excursion! After each adventure, we went back to the house and enjoyed the beautiful property and the swimming pool with all the floatations and comfy lounge chairs. One night we grilled and had a lovely patio dinner. This whole visit was just what you’d want in a great vacation from before we even arrived to the time we checked out! And the house interior was so nicely designed , furniture comfy and nice big kitchen and great bedrooms and bathrooms. Just exceptional!

Great location to explore UP

The house was located on M-28 close to restaurant, gas station and convenience store. 10 mins from Munising, 30 from Marquette. It was set back from the road though so it still feels quiet and peaceful. Great view of the lake. Pool was heated and kids enjoyed it swimming even past 9pm. Amenities were provided for and the cupboard was full. Will stay again if I’m the area.

Great stay

I will start by saying communication with the property manager was excellent. Super communicative and very pleasant to work with. The property was exactly as described and more. A couple things that we found to be excellent that are not called out on the description 1) parking is expansive for snowmobile rigs-huge!!! 3 rigs and room for more. 2) the picture window in the heated garage was awesome. We spent most of our evenings in the garage looking out the window with a great view of the lake (frozen of course!!). 3) the open floor layout and bar area was amazing to sit around and talk about the awesome sledding for the day. As far as concerns or issues, we didn’t have any. Overall great experience and very appreciative of the 4 days of great accommodations and sledding. Easy access to trails and we put in about 700 miles in 4 days. Good times ! Thank you Danielle!!

Quiet and convenient to Pictured Rocks Lake Share

It is very nice and quiet location, we only stayed from Friday evening to Monday morning. The location is quite during the weekend since no other residents near by and it hide away from the road providing extra peaceful surrendering. We enjoyed the staying and house comes with lots of amenities including Stream TV and lots of cooking supplies. It is a good place to do home away during the weekend or holidays!

Beautiful house equipped with all you could need, and more. Great host making sure to warmly welcome you and answer any questions. The photos don't do it enough credit. Confortable with plently of space. Easily accessible (even in winter I'd guess) as just off the main road not "out in woods" as some places are in the UP. Very handy for visiting.
