Enjoy soaking in the peaceful Keweenaw Peninsula during your stay at the Cottage on Pine. Located just 30 miles northeast of Houghton/Hancock, and 20 miles southwest of Copper Harbor. Eagle River is an ideal copper country location from where you can begin your local adventures which can include biking, hiking, lighthouses, intriguing waterfalls, former copper mines and other sightseeing the Lake Superior shorelines.

This classic 2 bedroom/1 bath home is decorated in a contemporary manner where thought was put into each room. The second bedroom has a full size bed as well as a bunk bed that creatively fills the space which was once the closet. Creative use of space rings true here.

This quiet and quaint town is filled with charm and is an ideal location for all your Keweenaw Peninsula excursions. Conveniently located and a scenic drive to Eagle Harbor, Copper Harbor, Calumet, and Houghton. Take a romantic stroll (2 blocks) toward Lake Superior where you will encounter Fitzgerald's Restaurant where you can find real smokehouse barbecue, fine whisky and craft beer. Take in the freshest air and enjoy the beautiful Lake Superior sunsets from the rocky beach. Right next to The Fitzgerald's Restaurant is the mouth of Eagle River where families can spend time unplugged with swimming, skipping rocks, bonfires or just small talking with fellow lovers of the Keweenaw.

Cute Place, Nice Location
Beautiful location; short walk to the beach and pretty centralized in the Keweenaw Peninsula, so it's convenient for seeing the whole area. Not much to do in Eagle River, but we liked how calm town was so you could go see the rest of the area and come back and relax. The house is the perfect size for a small family or group and the decorating makes it feel comfy and inviting.

Great stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our time and the house was in a perfect location for exploring the area. The house has a bit of a musty smell but it's well-stocked and the decor is lovely. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. Great communication with the property managers and just as described.

Great Place to stay in the Keweenaw Peninsula
The cottage is clean, well equipped with essentials, and in a great location to explore the Keweenaw. The host has also done a great job decorating the interior of the cottage. It’s very charming. We loved the fact that it is a block from Lake Superior and Fitzgerald restaurant. I highly recommend this for a stay and would book again!
