Random Point is a quiet, isolated oasis on a private, 300 ft beach cove on Lake Superior with a trout pond and 10 wooded acres. Both rentals and the outdoor sauna have stunning views of the Lake. This enchanted location is 5 miles from downtown Mqt with easy access to the University, restaurants, shops, hiking & biking trails. We offer two lodging experiences: the main home which is this rental and the apartment above the detached garage or you can rent both. (airbnb dot com/h/randompointapt) The space This is the U.P. at it's finest. After turning off the main road, you will meander 1/2 mile down a paved and gravel driveway through the woods and down toward majestic Lake Superior. Upon arrival, you will hear birds, the wind through the trees, and the water lapping (or crashing!). We adore this place because of the peacefulness and isolation, yet convenience to town. The house is accessed via a short walking bridge over a constantly-running stream. This stream flows out of a spring-fed trout pond. This house was built by our parents. It is now a multi-family-owned treasure. All of the siblings still use the property periodically. This means that unlike a hotel, we are sharing our HOME with you. The goal is for you to feel welcome and at home. Our parents loved to share this special place with many people. You will see family photos on the wall. Two closets hold family items and are not to be used by guests. Otherwise, please make yourself at home and enjoy! * The main living space is on the 2nd floor (which means amazing views, and also stairs to get up. There is a chair lift for those who need it). * You will have a fully stocked kitchen to prepare all your meals. Fully stocked means high-quality pots, pans, appliances, oil, spices, coffee, and tea. * Sleeping set-up: Bedroom #1 s on the 2nd floor, and has a king-size bed, with French-door access to a deck overlooking Lake Superior. Bedroom #2 is on the 1st floor, has a queen-size bed, also with French-door access to a deck overlooking the lake. There is a large loft running the entire length of the house which s accessed via a sturdy ladder, and has two, single mattresses. * All linens are 100% cotton. And there are plenty of comfy pillows. * Vaulted ceiling, and lots of windows. * Water: The tap water is perhaps the best water you will ever taste. Comes fresh from a well and springs on the property. (tested regularly) * Two outside decks (one with a roof) with outdoor seating and grill. * Wi-Fi and cable TV. The system was recently upgraded so you have very good internet access. Cell reception is spotty. Texting works fine, but phone calls may be challenging. * TV in the livingroom. The downstairs bedroom also has a large-screen and surround sound for optimal movie-watching. (But the Lake may be more entertaining:) * Short, sandy trail down to the beach. Shallow, sandy cove for swimming. There is currently a beautiful, small sandy beach. Please know that Lake Superior is very dynamic. We have had a huge beach and we have had a rocky beach. Literally, because of the high water, the beach now changes week to week depending upon water and wind movement. We can not guarantee what the beach will look like. Talk to Grandmother Gitchee Gumee (Lake Superior) about that. * We do NOT provide kayaks or any watercraft. You may bring your own. If you do, please bring life jackets as well. *There is a beautiful, new sauna that is shared between the two rentals on the property. It seats 6-8 people and has large picture windows with stunning views of Lake Superior. * A/C * You will likely be overwhelmed by Lake Superior expanding in front of your house. However, you may also be enchanted by a spring fed pond resting alongside the driveway with Blue Heron, Mallard Ducks, Kingfisher, and Bull Frogs. Yet of more interest to some are the Brook and Rainbow trout hidden within the pond. We have provided fish food pellets and feeding them is a delight. Access to trails: 1 mile to Sugarloaf 2 miles to Hogsback, North Country Trail and Noquemanon Trails 4 miles to Little Presque Isle and Harlow Lake And many, many more....! Guest access Guests may use the entire house except for two closets which are labeled accordingly. Guests may NOT use the garage nor any items in the garage. Other things to note There may be guests staying in the apartment above the garage. Please be considerate of each other as far as sharing the beach and the parking area.
