At Coles Creek Overlook, reviewers consistently praise it as a roomy, group-friendly cabin with plenty of spaces to gather, a well-stocked kitchen for cooking together, and helpful hosts who communicate quickly, making trips easy for families and teams.
Guests like the wooded setting close to Houghton and Hancock, noting it works well as a base for day trips around the Keweenaw. The home is consistently described as very clean and well maintained. Amenities such as a sauna, a basketball court, ample parking, and open hangout areas are appreciated. One reviewer noted the house can run warm during hot August days and another mentioned mattresses could improve; overall, expect a low-stress stay close to nature.

Check-in was smooth and easy. The hosts were very quick to respond and easy to communicate with regarding any questions. The kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed and had 2 ovens for cooking plus a blackstone outside. Having our 3 families together we had plenty of space for sleeping, cooking and we loved the basketball court out back for the kids to play on.

Our group had a great stay. Our only complaint was that in mid August, the house got pretty warm on the days that the weather was hot. Overall we were very comfortable and our group loved the sauna!

It's a great place to stay especially for a group. We took turns cooking our evening meal and the kitchen amenities and size made it very convenient. I could even say amazing. Having two indoor gathering areas - upstairs and downstairs as well as the dining room table really worked out nicely. Great outdoors also. And, again multiple gathering areas. Most of our group was in our 70's but I could see there would be plenty of things to entertain young children as well as young adults.

Perfect weekend with the family! Great location to explore so much nearby and still feel out in the woods. Views from the deck are gorgeous, kids loved having basketball and the stars were unbelievable! Lots of room for bigger groups to spread out and have their own space too. The upstairs loft area is separate enough for some piece or for the kids to enjoy without being isolated. Both Sarah and Bruce are extremely kind and responsive. A all around!

My dad went to Tech and his soon-to-be college age grandkids wanted to tour the university. The house had a basketball court, a sauna, and a perfect set up for playing cards and game. It was stocked with every last thing that we needed. Thank you to Bruce and Sarah. They were the perfect hosts! All 13 of us loved it!

Our whole family of 16, ages 1 through 70, enjoyed staying at this unique log cabin. So many fun spaces in the house to play and talk. Close to town so grocery shopping was quick and easy. So many fun places to go. We just enjoyed every day of the week and the host was so prompt when we had questions.

The house was great. Plenty of beds for everyone to have their own. Plenty of room for relaxing during down time. The house was clean and well cared for. A lot of room for parking trucks and trailers. Host was very prompt to respond to any questions we had. Everything you needed for a stay and to make meals was available. I would recommend this house to any large groups looking to stay in the Houghton area

Super nice and clean cabin! We’ve book this cabin to celebrate New Year with family. We were hoping to rent snowmobiles and go to ski to Mt Ripley , but unfortunately there wasn’t snow, and even though we had a great time in that place. The cabin was big enough for 14 people, it was clean, stuffed with all necessary equipment and spices and coffee and tea, even shampoo and conditioner:) Also there was so many games for kids. Sauna was a great bonus. The property was in the wood , so we went with kids for hiking. Checking and checkout process was super easy. I highly recommend this cabin and host. We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to come back again for snowmobiling:)

Nice log home with short drive to Houghton and Hancock, with McClain State Park beach being about 20 min drive. Creek on property has many small brook trout but did catch a 10". We also visited Porcupine Mountains, Calumet, Hungarian Falls, and Copper Harbor. Jogged on the path along canal each morning. The property owner was great to work with. Overall a great property and good location for exploring the peninsula..

We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to come back again for snowmobiling:)
Super nice and clean cabin! We’ve book this cabin to celebrate New Year with family. We were hoping to rent snowmobiles and go to ski to Mt Ripley , but unfortunately there wasn’t snow, and even though we had a great time in that place. The cabin was big enough for 14 people, it was clean, stuffed with all necessary equipment and spices and coffee and tea, even shampoo and conditioner:) Also there was so many games for kids. Sauna was a great bonus. The property was in the wood , so we went with kids for hiking. Checking and checkout process was super easy. I highly recommend this cabin and host. We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to come back again for snowmobiling:)

Check-in was smooth and easy. The hosts were very quick to respond and easy to communicate with regarding any questions. The kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed and had 2 ovens for cooking plus a blackstone outside. Having our 3 families together we had plenty of space for sleeping, cooking and we loved the basketball court out back for the kids to play on.

This was our second time staying here and it was again a great choice. There was enough beds for everyone in our group and the kitchen was stocked with all the pots/pans/appliances we needed. Communication was great with the host.

Bruce and Sarah have a lovely home, it felt like our own! The place is very clean and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen was stocked well (minus our own groceries) and there were plenty of towels too for our group of 14. WiFi was fast and check in was a breeze. Thank you - Would love to stay here again!!!

It's a great place to stay especially for a group. We took turns cooking our evening meal and the kitchen amenities and size made it very convenient. I could even say amazing. Having two indoor gathering areas - upstairs and downstairs as well as the dining room table really worked out nicely. Great outdoors also. And, again multiple gathering areas. Most of our group was in our 70's but I could see there would be plenty of things to entertain young children as well as young adults.

Home away from home is the best to describe this place! It was big enough to accommodate our large group of 14. The only thing i would underrate this place for is the beds….they could be upgraded. Other than that everything was great! Two ovens were awesome too for cooking for such a large group!

My dad went to Tech and his soon-to-be college age grandkids wanted to tour the university. The house had a basketball court, a sauna, and a perfect set up for playing cards and game. It was stocked with every last thing that we needed. Thank you to Bruce and Sarah. They were the perfect hosts! All 13 of us loved it!

This was a great place to stay with a medium/large group. All kitchen appliances and pots/pans that we needed were all provided. Hosts were excellent and great at communicating.

The house was great. Plenty of beds for everyone to have their own. Plenty of room for relaxing during down time. The house was clean and well cared for. A lot of room for parking trucks and trailers. Host was very prompt to respond to any questions we had. Everything you needed for a stay and to make meals was available. I would recommend this house to any large groups looking to stay in the Houghton area

This place is absolutely wonderful. We came up with 3 trailers,and 5 trucks. More than enough room to park. The house is great. Plenty of space for a group. The beds are the best mattresses I’ve ever slept on in a new place. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The house was so clean and comfy. It was very peaceful to hear the creek all day long. We all took advantage of the sauna it was a great way to relax at the end of trail riding, fishing, hiking and exploring. We look forward to staying again in the future.

Bruce was excellent host. We asked about extending our stay due to possible travel problems and he was very accommodating. Bruce also coordinated a time for a plow to clean driveway after 6-8 inches fell. Definetly would recommend to anyone visiting copper country for snowmobiling or playing hockey!! 5 stars across the board.

It was a lovely return to this cabin for our group! We love the vibes here and the space works great for us. Very romantic with some fresh snow falling during our stay. Great plowing to allow for space for cars.
