The lighthouse is perfectly appointed. The kitchen has everything you need to make a meal. The sheets are dreamy. Fresh flowers on the table. Couldn’t ask for a more perfect setting or stay. Can’t wait to return.

It simply does not get more romantic or luxurious than the eagle river lighthouse. Virginia Cole is more than reliable, she is proactive, making sure that every little thing is right with your stay from the minute you decide to book until the morning you must sadly check out. You may have some sticker shock but you get what you pay for and more at the Eagle River lighthouse.

This property is exceptional. Spacious, gorgeous inside and out. Tremendous view, eagles providing entertainment as if trained. Incredible sunsets over the lake, beautiful sunrises over the hill. Beach to the front, river to the side and waterfall out the back take your pick. While the Keweenaw never disappoints this property takes the experience to the next level.

This is the best VRBO I have stayed at! Me and a group of 6 did a new years snowboarding trip out there and it could not have been more smooth. A huge reason for that was Jan (our host) they gave tons of recommendations for the area, and always answered our questions no matter how small within a few hours. It was also spotless, had a fully stocked kitchen, a great amount of space, and one heck of a view ! We will most certainly be returning for another snowboarding trip or even in the summer to take on some hiking!
