The ages in our party ranged from 18 months to 70 years and this amazing rental provided both privacy for individuals and plenty of large spaces for meals/activities. Everything needed for a large group can be found here as Paul has crockpots, pack 'n play beds for infants, games, movies, washer/dryers, and tons of seating indoors and outdoors. The beach truly is soft sand and there is a fire pit that is perfect for s'mores and sing-alongs. The remote location in Big Bay, MI is perfect for disconnecting...and reconnecting with family. (Wifi actually is a bit spotty and our AT&T service did not work here). The property owner was always accessible but not intrusive. We loved our time at Tranquility Haven and would not hesitate to recommend it to other families/groups! You will not be disappointed in this one. ##### Denise B.

The house was large enough to comfortably accommodate our party of 18 with ages ranging from five to 75. The main house kitchen was well stocked had a very large stove with gas burners and a flat cooktop that made breakfast for 18 (relatively) painless. The older cousins took over the basement bedrooms along with the pool table and their own bathroom and television. The little ones loved digging in the sand just outside in the backyard on the shores of Lake Superior. Everyone gathered around the fire pit every night to watch the sunset and make S’mores. The owner, Paul, could not have been more helpful. He pointed us in the right direction to explore the best nearby spots and was even gracious enough to being us a set of jumper cables when one of our vehicles wouldn’t start. I can wholeheartedly recommend this property. We had a great week! ##### amy t. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles G.

Aug 2, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect, secluded location for large family trip! We stayed at this location from July 23-July 30 with a group of 24 people (16 adults and 8 children - age 6 and under). The location is amazing: secluded, private and right on the water. You'll want to plan accordingly because you are 45 minutes away from Marquette, where the grocery stores are. The house is large, with various rooms and living areas. It was perfect for our group to feel spread out and have privacy when we wanted it, yet big enough to all be in the same area at the same time. There are a ton of items available for your use in the kitchen or stored in closests (fans, cleaning products, pack n play, high chair, sippy cups, etc). Some items were broken or missing pieces, such at the pool sticks, puzzles and games. We brought or purchased some of our own stuff (cornhole, fishing poles, pool sticks, board games) though so we were fine. Water pressure was lighter than our liking and there were several light bulbs out throughout the house. We found the stove in the main kitchen area difficult to light as well. We rented the pontoon boat for the week, but only ended up taking it out two days during our stay. Perkins Park is a great place to hang out as a family and be able to use the boat. Paul was amazing to communicate with before and during the trip. I was concerned about paying in advance for a non-refundable trip, but Paul eased my mind and explained why they list the house that way (to protect themselves from last minute cancels). We spoke again just before the trip and he gave recommendations for grocery stores, pizza place (Vango's was amazing!), logistics for how to enter the home, etc. He was a pleasure to work with. Some of the decor and finishes in the home are older, but that wasn't important to our group. The outdoor area with the firepit (firewood is included) and being right on the beach was so convenient and enjoyable. It was nice to be able to go down to the water and back up to the house without having to load everyone in the car and drive. The sunsets and sunrises were breathtaking. We had an amazing time. I would certainly travel to Michigan and enjoy this rental again as well. If you have a large group and want to be under one roof, I high recommend this location! ##### Britany L.

Jul 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect UP Getaway for a Family Reunion My husband and I rented this amazing place for our family reunion with our children, their spouses and our grandkids, as well as my siblings and some of their families. It allowed for the perfect set up for people congregating together, having their separate places to retreat to when they needed some yet quiet. The location on Big Bay was amazing! The bay water was very comfortable for swimming and shallow for our little ones for quite a ways out. The winds from Lake Superior were not as strong, so they made it comfortable for hanging out on the beach, laying in the hammocks or sitting on the amazing deck space. We were able to find many hiking trails with beautiful waterfalls close by! The house itself was very well equipped and comfortable for serving meals. Paul, the owner was very approachable and accommodating, as well as very resourceful. We certainly hope to return sometime in the future! ##### Charla L.

Great communication with the owner and we never even had to leave the property to enjoy ourselves ##### torey b. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Veronica B. Aug 26, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect spot for a family reunion This house offered all the space our family (20) required. Given the ages, we could all comfortably gather at the sandy beach right outside the front door. In the evenings, the fire pit was perfect and we marveled at the vast, brightly lit starry skies. As for the vrbo proper, all the beds were so comfy. The kitchen was well-stocked. The only two drawbacks were that all the knives were quite dull and the large commercial size grill was not clean. Many of us agreed that spending a lifetime there would not be enough to read all the books on the shelves. The main living room was perfect for gathering for meals and games and the selection of vhs videos was perfect for buying a little bit of time with the little ones. Overall, if you have a large group who wants to take in the beauty of Lake Superior, this is the place. ##### Veronica B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily D.

Everything about our stay was perfection and the resort is absolutely breathtaking! Paul is the most accommodating host and our entire stay was an outstanding experience resulting in many fun family memories. The beach was perfect for our wedding and the fantasy beach house could not have worked better for our reception meal. This is truly a one in a million gem of a rental and I recommend it 100%! ##### Emily D.
