AuTrain Beach House on the Sandy Shores of Lk Superior! Min from Pictured Rocks!

The property was beautiful and had a huge stretch of uninterrupted shoreline. The beach was gorgeous and made the stay. The pictures don’t show how much room there is to play and enjoy outside. There was no/limited drainage in the household. The upstairs shower didn’t drain and held water when taking a shower. The water is also very hard. Showering doesn’t seem to cleanse and leaves orange residue on your skin. This isn’t a problem at the neighboring property. Overall, the property was great and we enjoyed our stay!!

We and our daughter’s family, (children aged 6 mos to 14 years), had a great 5 day mini-vacation spending 8-10 hours on the beautiful beach every day. House is a spacious 3 bedroom with extra sleeping accommodations in basement, 2 1/2 baths, fully-equipped & stocked kitchen with 8 seat dining room table & large living room/great room with wall-to-wall windows giving a great view of the beach & Lake Superior. Large fridge, modern electric stove/oven, dishwasher, new washer & dryer all included. Easy access to a virtually private beach via large deck. The gently sloping shore and sandbar allowed even small children to safely walk out into the clear water. Provided beach chairs, BBQ, firepit and firewood are a very nice touch. Saw a number of bald eagles fly right over us on the beach. Only minutes from the Pictured Rocks National Forest with well-maintained trails leading to amazing views of several waterfalls. Well water quality not great but OK for showers. (Water softener and/or iron remover would be nice).

Had a wonderful vacation. Location was perfect and accommodated a large group. Right on the beach with east access.

The property was nice, but appeared ‘more tired, worn out’ than the pictures. The floors all felt gritty and sandy. And the weather was not cooperative, it was very windy, the waves were huge, and we could not spend any time by the water.(No fault of anyone!). But because of the weather, we did have quality time visiting with siblings and spouses. The space in the house was perfect for sitting around the table, or in the living room and chatting. We did enjoy our time at the rental house.

Very clean. Lovely water view. Lake Superior was so calm the days we were there. Brought our paddle board along and was able to enjoy the chilly water this hot weekend. Great place to stay in between Ishpeming and Marquette for the marathon. Love the Green Bay packers fire ring out on the beach ??. Roomy enough for all 10 of us. Would definitely stay here again!

Great family vacation. No issues sleeping 11 people. One was in a pack n’ play. Plenty of space. Great access to beach with fire pit and chairs. Private, sandy beach. Kitchen fully stocked. Beach and bath towels provided. Nice deck overlooking lake also with plenty of chairs. One bedroom was missing a curtain over the window on the door but we improvised and made one. Close enough to drive to everything and far enough away to be quiet. Would absolutely stay again, highly recommend.

Overall the adults were disappointed when we arrived. It was not the same as the posted photos and this property is older and it shows through as a general air of shabbiness. We left a list of 12 things that were broken and needed fixing from a constantly running toilet to a dishwasher soap dispenser that didn’t work to broken legs on the coffee table. The beach was wonderful but the house is so close to the busy highway that the constant traffic noise was loud and prevented us from opening up windows at night if we wanted to get any sleep. A good spot for kids to have some beach fun but definitely not worth what we paid for the week.

We had a great time staying here.

Beyond expectations. We had a fantastic time. The house layout was perfect for the 4 couples. Everything we needed was there. Erin was very helpful through the whole process from check in to check out. We would definitely rebook.

House is right on water, great location! Enough room for all the 8 family members. Thought we will have a gas grill on deck (per pictures) but it was small charcoal grill. Property could be better maintained. T-Mobile signal was spotty, but in house Wifi signal was poor.
