Holiday houses in Champion

My husband and I totally enjoyed our time at the Love Shack! The host provided clear and precise instructions on preparing for this off-the grid opportunity. The great news, we had a heater that let us warm for the November weather. Plus, the bed was super comfy! We will be back!

If you're going through a tough divorce and the world seems like it's crumbling around you, have I got the place for you. Admittedly, I clicked "reserve" immediately when I saw the sauna, but the lack of a kitchen doesn't really matter when there are so many amazing restaurants nearby and you have the sauna to come home to. Beautiful hiking on the property, Joy and her husband are gracious hosts, and if they'd have me, I will definitely be booking again. Oh and did I mention the sauna?

What a lovely, peaceful lakeside retreat! We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The house was very clean and well appointed. The furniture and beds were very comfortable. The views from outside and inside the home were amazing. Every morning was spent on the Adirondack chairs with a cup of coffee watching the sun rise on the lake. For the bird lovers, we saw a kingfisher, a bald eagle and a pileated woodpecker. For the hikers, it was a short drive to Pictured Rocks, Porcupine Mountains, and countless waterfalls. We were able to view the northern lights from Presque Isle, which is just a short distance from the house. Mark was a great host, and quick to provide any information we needed before and during the trip. We will definitely be back!

Great host, place was clean, and as described! Would definitely stay again. Apple Maps guides you past the home, but the host was proactive and turned on some blue lights on the eve. Easy to find! Comfortable home.

Sure! Here's a polished version of your review that reads smoothly and warmly: --- We stayed here in mid-June and absolutely loved it. The place was cozy, clean, and very comfortable. Although the weather was a bit chilly and rainy, the heater kept the space warm and inviting. One of the highlights was the beautiful balcony overlooking the river — perfect for enjoying a barbecue while taking in the peaceful view. There’s also a set of stairs that leads you down to the riverbank, where you can sit and unwind right by the water. The cabin was well-equipped with everything we needed for cooking, including pots, dishes, and utensils. A thoughtful touch was the candles they provided — we lit them in the evening, and they added a warm glow and a lovely scent to the entire space. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we’d definitely come back again!

This cabin was the perfect place to relax, unplug, and reconnect—with nature, ourselves, and our fur babies. We truly appreciated how thoughtfully the space was designed, from the smart use of every corner to the well-curated amenities. Some highlights that made our stay especially memorable: swaying in the hammock, sounds of birds chirping in the morning, cooking with the quality stainless steel pans, the unique Korean microwave and fridge, cozy evenings by the fire, grilling outdoors, and sipping tea while watching the sunrise and hummingbirds at the feeder. We only wished it was warmer so we could’ve used the kayaks. We already hope to be back again in the near future

Dan was quick to respond to our booking request, even called to check in with me about our stay. He was friendly, helpful and wanted me to know he was available if i needed anything. The house was clean, warm, and had a comfy home feel. Perfect stay for our fall color ride we on.

Overall, I give Bob and Linda’s lodge 5/5. It was exactly what I was looking for: an authentic off-grid UP experience. It’s clean and homey, and Bob and Linda are top notch hosts, going out of their way to make your stay a good one. If you’re looking for a great off-grid experience, this is it. However, it may not be for everyone. For example, we visited in October, and we had to heat the lodge through fireplaces as there is no central heating. I personally enjoyed that but can imagine others not wanting to deal with it. The lodge has an open concept floor plan, and I recommend guests consider sleeping arrangements carefully. While there are a ton of beds, there are few doors, and most sleeping areas don’t have one. So it may not be the best if you have people going to bed or waking up at different times.
