Stay Like a Local
As longtime Marquette residents, we love sharing our favorite places—from hidden hiking trails and scenic overlooks to local restaurants, beaches, and community events. Our goal is to help guests experience Marquette the way locals do.

We also own the beautifully restored Hewitt Onion Tower, located next door. Guests staying at Four Square House are welcome to request access to the shared fitness room located on that property.

We look forward to welcoming you to our home and sharing a little piece of the Marquette community we

Perfect cozy winter getaway

Our family was visiting Marquette to enjoy some winter festivities, but the home was so comfortable and welcoming that we had a hard time talking ourselves into walking out the front door! Gorgeous and clean home, perfect location to walk everywhere, and seamless communication with host. Accommodating for larger groups who want vacations and/or staycations!Highly recommend

The perfect place in Marquette!

The house is huge and perfect for large groups, or two families and friends like we had. So many places for people to hang out, both inside and outside, as well as a large dining table, a fire pit and all the amenities anyone could want. And it's within walking distance of Lake Superior, Blackrocks Brewing, Contrast Coffee and tons of other places to grab a bite or a drink. I can't recommend it enough!

Perfect house - perfect location!

We had a great time at this house and the owners are great! It's walkable/bikeable to many things. We walked to the NMU football game in the dome, rented bikes next door to bike to blackrocks to jump off the cliffs, walked to downtown for the restaurants and bars, went on a hike and more. There was more than enough room for everyone and the house came with everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed grilling on the flatop as well as normal grill, watching football in the spacious living room, using the sauna and more. Plenty of space to park. The house was extremely clean and cozy. We really enjoyed our stay here and would stay here again in a second!

Beautiful historic property

The house had a fantastic location and beautiful aesthetics. We loved the multiple seating areas inside and the inviting outdoor spaces with a porch and firepit. Both kitchens were well-equipped and beautifully designed. There were a couple of minor issues to mention. The bathroom door on the main floor wouldn't lock, which caused some inconvenience. The AC was not adequate on a super hot day. We also encountered bugs in all of the bedrooms. The cleaning checklist seemed quite extensive! For instance, washing, drying, and putting dishes away took a significant amount of time, which felt like a chore during our short vacation. Perhaps streamlining the checkout instructions could improve the guest experience. Overall, this is a lovely property, and with a few adjustments, it could be even better.
