Wonderful house and location. Perfect location for exploring the area.
Was an Amazing stay, would recommend staying, this place is right next to really beautiful waterfalls, and other scenic places, might go back soon honestly. There was some wasp nest which im deathly allergic to, but that was literally the only downside but other than that it was amazing
Nice place and clean, close to ski resorts
We had everything our group of 3 needed for a quick weekend getaway to the UP. Great location, easy to find and close to a the ski hills. Comfortable beds, large gathering space to hang out and make food. We enjoyed our stay!
This home met our needs and the communication with the property owner was wonderful- including some tips on local areas we were seeking out!
Perfect spot to stay and ski / snowmobile. Highly recommend!
Nelson's Nest was perfect for our 4 day stay. The location was perfect and gave us quick easy access to Indian Head and Black Jack Mt. The check in process was as easy as can be and communication with the owner was seamless. We arrived much earlier than expected and they allowed us an early check in. Kristy even made sure the the heat was turned up and ready to go!
Amazing host, she helped meet all of our needs and made our stay fantastic.
Great location in western UP between Bessemer and Ironwood; close to Lake Superior and Porcupine Mountains. Kitchen equipped with all necessary utensils; cooked most of the time. Very relaxing time. Woods across the street and in back. Quiet street. Would return to this rental if in western UP again, especially in winter with all the ski resorts in the area.
