Explore the Keweenaw ! Only 6 Miles to MTU!

The Mill duplex is located just minutes from Michigan Tech in the quaint town of Chassell MI. Apartment A is the perfect destination for business travelers or for couples looking to explore the Keweenaw Peninsula. When you stay at the The Mill, you will enjoy the private bedroom, an efficient yet well equipped kitchen, and a private patio area. Prepare for a relaxing and comfortable stay that won’t break the bank!

In 2025, a portion of all bookings will donated to local youth baseball.

The Mill is our most affordable property and it is perfect for business travelers and couples. The property consists of two 1 bedroom duplexes and is a quick and easy commute to Michigan Tech. The Mill apartments are extremely quaint and they provide enormous value and convenience!

Guests are provided access to the entire apartment and private back patio.

I may or may not be available during your stay, but we have a property manager that lives in the area, and is available.

The Keweenaw Peninsula is a four season destination, and is exciting for everyone because there is always something to do! You can enjoy our pristine fresh water beaches in the summer because we are salt free! Seek adventure on the world’s best snowmobile trails because we get up to 25 feet of snow each winter! If you are looking for a quiet vacation then visit this spring to hunt morel mushrooms! If fall is more your speed, then come for the great weather and breathtaking colors. After all, it doesn’t matter what time of the year you arrive, we always have something wonderful to experience!

If you are looking to steep yourself in rich culture, then the Copper Country is the place to visit! We have roughly 68 museums, attractions and ghost towns to explore! Come catch a play at Michigan Tech’s Rozsa Center, or visit the historic Calumet Theater to step back in time! Visit the birthplace of professional hockey. Watch your Michigan Tech Huskies battle the nation’s top collegiate hockey teams at the John McGinnis Ice Center!

The Mill is located directly off of US41 and provides easy access to Michigan Tech, Houghton and the Keweenaw. The Mill has 1 dedicated parking spot per apartment and additional parking can be provided upon request.

The town of Chassell is genuinely quiet and quaint, but the property is located along US41. Most of the traffic dies down after dark, but some road noise may still be heard. If you are looking to visit your Tech student, you will not find a better and more economical place to stay! If you are looking for eco-tourism, Chassell has many things to offer from a kayak launch, and a skating rink, to ski/snowshoe trails, a boat launch, swimming beach and amazing fishing all year round!

Chassell is also an excellent destination for guests traveling with dogs. With host approval, you may bring up to two dogs under 40 pounds. Please note a non-refundable pet fee applies, and all pets should be disclosed at the time of booking. After your reservation is confirmed or upon request, we will provide you with our detailed pet rules to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay for everyone.

We know our healthcare workers spend long hours taking care of others. As a result, we offer weekly turndown services that provides fresh linens and a light cleaning to all bookings over 2 weeks.

Our stay

The unit is very clean, obviously a new build. Appliances were like brand new showroom features. Very open & spacious. Having a back deck sitting area and fenced in area for our little dog was a plus. We had a question with the thermostat controls and the host Fred came within 15 minutes to show us. The bed was very comfortable. It was in the 80s, we bought 2 table top fans for more comfort. Over all was a wonderful stay. If there’s a draw back, it’s just being on the main road, traffic can get pretty noisy.

Just perfect for us and our pup

We were on the go for much of our week in the U.P., and this was a great place to land at the end of each day. Accommodations were just right - everything we needed, nothing we didn’t, and a terrific location. Our pup loved morning and evening walks on the trails, the lake was lovely, and during a warm week, Fred and Maria were thoughtful about making sure things were cool and comfortable. We’re looking forward to going back.

We really enjoyed the space and found it to be clean, well stocked, and spacious. There is a community park that is walkable from the location which was great for our dog. It is on a main street so you do hear traffic. I will note that the AC didn't seem to be working properly but there was a floor unit and fans available. I don't think that should take away from the rating of the property though, they were obviously accommodating the best they could. I would stay definitely stay again.

Wonderful accommodations

We’ve stayed at numerous VRBO rentals over the years. This place in Chassell was perfect for our 45th Anniversary trip up to the Keweenaw. It is a super clean home. It has everything we needed and more. It’s in a perfectly safe neighborhood. The town of Chassell is small but very nice. It’s close to Houghton and the Quincy Mine which had rock shows we came here for. The backyard and deck area was perfect for our 2 small yorkies we brought with us. The air conditioning worked great as well as the furnace. Both used on our one week vacation in August! It seems like it’s brand new inside. The bed was comfortable. Again there was everything you might need and more. Communications with the owner was great too. There’s only enough room sleeping wise for 2 or 3 people. But I wouldn’t hesitate to book this home again for our next trip if going to the Keweenaw. We even got to see the Northern Lights from the deck out back. My first time ever seeing them and I’m in my 60s. Definitely was a highlight. A wonderful home.
