Written By Dean .

Thank you for choosing to stay at our lovely cottage on Lac La Belle. We hope your visit is wonderful and that you choose to stay with us again in the future. Please keep reading for information about your stay…

General Expectations

  • We ask that you treat our home as your own.

  • We love the Keweenaw, if you’re staying here we assume that you do as well. Our cottage is located in a special place, the people who live here have a sharded understanding. We ask that you please be respectful to our community and the land around you.

  • No smoking indoors, this is for everyone’s benefit. If you do smoke outside, please be mindful of where the scents may be traveling.

  • Use at own risk. This is a lakefront property with a dock. Extreme care should be taken in and around the water, especially with children. There may be hidden debris in the water, no jumping/diving from dock.

  • The dock and lower patio areas (fire pit) are shared amenities with the main house. Please be respectful of all guests

  • Lac La Belle is a relatively remote location. There is limited cell phone reception in most places. Help and/or emergency services may be delayed significantly. Please prepare accordingly.
