With 5 bedrooms, 3 baths and over 2,300 square feet of living space, the property is perfect for large group getaways or family reunions. Enjoy the perks of the ideal location, just a short walk from the Soo Locks and downtown shops! It's sure to be an unforgettable vacation on the Upper Peninsula!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: King Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Bedroom 4: Queen Bed | Bedroom 5: 2 Twin Beds | Additional Sleeping: Pack 'n Play

This beautiful property is truly one-of-a-kind, with a bright and colorful exterior, stained glass windows, and original 1800s detailing throughout the home.

After a busy day in downtown, enjoy some well-deserved downtime inside. Unwind in the living area while friends try a tune on the upright piano.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all appliances necessary to whip up a homemade meal. Enjoy a quick bite at the kitchen table, or indulge in a four-course feast in the dining room.

When you're ready to retire, get some rest in one of the 5 bedrooms. Those who choose the main bedroom will enjoy the luxury of a kitchenette, electric fireplace, A/C, and en-suite bathroom.

The upstairs queen bedroom also has air conditioning and the bunk room with the two twin beds has a window fan so you can sleep soundly.

-- THE LOCATION --

This property boasts an ideal location right in the heart of downtown Sault Ste Marie! Walk just a few blocks over to visit the local shops, restaurants, and more - like 1668 Winery & Lockside Brewery, the Tower of History, and Soo Theatre Arts.

The Soo Locks are a must-visit while you're in the area. Snag a spot on a Soo Locks sightseeing tour, Luncheon and Dinner Cruise, or Lighthouse Cruise!

Venture over the Sault Ste Marie International Bridge to see the other side of the city, where you'll find the Agawa Canyon Tour Train, Entomica, the Art Gallery of Algoma, the Spirits Rising Monument, and other historical attractions in Canada. However, be sure to have a passport or enhanced driver's license with you before you head across the border.

If you're visiting in the summer season, there's a sand volleyball court in the backyard, or drive 4 miles west to Sherman Park for a day on the beach. Sunbathe on the St Mary's River shoreline, rent a boat to take out on the water, or hop on a local fishing charter!

It felt like home!

We were traveling together for a family wedding. The home was cozy and comfortable and filled with little extra amenities – breakfast foods stocked in the kitchen. The owner checked in several times to see if everything was to our satisfaction. It felt like our home away from home. You have a beautiful home!

Quick tour of the UP

The Soo was where we stayed and went to the falls and Lake Superior lake shore. Honestly couldn't have gotten a better deal anywhere. Staying in a historic house was such a treat and Barbara was reachable immediately by text for or few questions.

Beautiful house

The house was very large and comfortable for our party of 6. The property manager, Barbara, was wonderful! Perfect spot - close enough to walk to the lock, but far enough to be out of the crowd.

It was an excellent experience!

We had a wonderful time. The house was nice and very clean! The kitchen was fully stocked. There was plenty of linens, blankets, and pillows for everyone. The beds were comfortable. The shower in the master bath was amazing. The host was very helpful and was easy to communicate with. The location of the house was perfect, it was close to all the attractions we went to.

Trip to the Soo

Beautiful, well-maintained home! Very clean with lots of extra blankets and towels. Lots of room to park, and the fire-pit was nice for everyone to be able to hang out and relax after a long day. The owner was very friendly and helped to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Definitely would highly recommend to anyone looking for a large place for friends and family to be able to bunk together for a few days or more!

Home vs Hotel

We chose this location because of a nearby training conference. We enjoyed the ability to walk wherever we went and the relaxing and comforting house. The house was great. I loved the décor and the comfort of the rooms. It was more cost effective to stay here than a hotel for our group and it allowed us a lot of time to meet in the common areas. Would highly recommend it.

Comfortable stay on Sault Saint Marie

The property was exactly as pictured. It is beautiful with comfortable beds, updated bathrooms and well-stocked kitchen. Barbara was wonderful with communication and unexpected breakfast supplies. We loved our stay! The only 2 things to mention are that there is no bathroom door in the master suite and we were unsure of the neighborhood at first but it was quiet and walkable to downtown. Well worth it to stay here and visit the Soo Locks.

Vintage 1880

This 1880 vintage home was very welcoming. The bathrooms have been updated and the whole house was very clean. We had four cars and no problems parking. This old house has the old home charm. There were three couple and a single adult. There was plenty of room for our whole party. Great stay

The place was GREAT. Had many amenities, more than most that I've stayed in. The host was very accomodating and very easy to get a hold of. You never had to wait for a response. The neigborhood felt safe and is walking distance to shopping, historic sites and resaurants. The outside grounds needed some work but it is the UP and it has just started to get nice out. I'm sure it's beautiful in the summer.

Amazing house, wonderful experience

It is a beautiful 1888 house which does not feel old on the inside at all! It has a great cozy feel to it. Lots of room, lots of sheets, towels, blankets, and other bedding. The kitchen is completely equipped with everything necessary in abundance. It was very convenient! The host was very friendly through text, going beyond what was needed to be helpful and friendly. I would recommend this house wholeheartedly.
