Feels Like Grandma’s House: Valerie at Whispering Pines #2

Valerie and her husband booked a 3-night stay with their small dog at Whispering Pines #2 in Calumet through Airbnb in mid-August, reserving just three days ahead. She left us this 5-star review:

We had a wonderful 3-night stay. The place is clean, cozy, and feels like Grandma’s house. Bringing our small dog was a breeze with plenty of indoor space, an outdoor grassy area, a nearby roadside park, and no extra pet fee.

The beds were soft with comfortable linens, and opening the doors with the provided fan kept it cool in August. The kitchen is well-equipped with a rollaway dishwasher, fridge, mini-fridge, and Keurig with free pods. Fast Starlink Wi-Fi was great since Verizon cell service is spotty.

The bathroom has vintage charm, and minor wear adds character. There’s an onsite laundromat and seamless email check-in. The location is right off the highway for easy access, yet peaceful and surrounded by trees, a quick drive to Hancock, Houghton, and Copper Harbor. The hosts were amazing and quick to answer. We’d definitely stay again!

During the stay, Valerie wrote to Vern that they felt very comfortable the entire time, and said friends who had visited would be referring others.

Thanks, Valerie! Bringing a four-legged family member? Plan your stay at Whispering Pines #2.
