Blue Harbor View

Built in 1880, Blue Harbor View was recently renovated and has the best of both worlds.

This sparkling clean two-bedroom home retains historic charm and is full of good energy. Light floods the space through large windows with expansive views of Lake Superior, the sunrises are epic. Get cozy with throws, pillows, and colorful artistic elements from around the world.

Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world.

The southern shore on the Upper Peninsula feels more like an ocean. The sandy beaches are ideal for a lunchtime picnic or a hike. It is the perfect spot to get your fill of fresh air kayaking, boating, or sailing adventures. Hire a local fishing charter, and then cook your catch in the well-appointed kitchen.

Our digital guidebook will help you make the most of your time for a carefree, luxurious urban escape.

We have tips on where to buy fresh veggies and meats, nearby attractions, and much more. Blue Harbor View is only a short four-block stroll from the vibrant downtown scene. Enjoy the community's shops, superb dining, and beautiful stone architecture.

The swing chair on the front porch in the late afternoon shade is a great place to savor the day over a glass of fine wine.

There is high-speed Wi-Fi, a laptop desk, and ample outlets. The big-screen smart T.V. is an at-home theatre experience.

You will feel pampered in the spa bathroom.

Step onto the heated floor and sink into a deep tub for a refreshing soak in bath salts. Or take a luxurious rain-head shower with warm towels waiting. Anticipate a restful night in comfortable beds with new mattresses and premium linens.

Marquette is a recreational paradise surrounded by forested parkland.

Spectacular fall colors, winter skiing/snowshoeing, or magical spring waterfalls draw visitors year-round. There are hundreds of miles of trails, forests, and lakeshore to explore. Two local favorites are Presque Isle Park and Sugarloaf Mountain.

Connect with family, or look forward to a getaway weekend with friends at Blue Harbor View.

Hiking Trails

Make your stay laid back and quiet or fill it with over-the-top outdoor adventures. View cliff diving, visit swimming beaches, and hiking trails along the Lake Superior shore are minutes away.

Experience a pristine Lake Superior beach at Little Presque Isle a few miles north of the city. Walk Wetmore Landing trails that straddle the forest and shore filled with the scent of pine. To engage with Lake Superior for first-time visitors is a magical experience.

Climb the Heights in Season

Climb Sugarloaf, Hogback, and Mount Marquette
Sugarloaf Mountain is located about six miles north of downtown and is a local favorite. With century-old trees and rock outcroppings, it is a gorgeous hike. At the top is a stunning view of Lake Superior and Marquette.

Climb to the top of Mount Marquette—or drive. Either way, the view of the city below and the lake is expansive and not to be missed.

Hogback Mountain is a strenuous climb. Wear hiking boots. In some places, you’re climbing on rock. Another spectacular view.

Fall in the Upper Peninsula

The Upper Peninsula is a favorite destination for fall color-seekers. The first reds appear in August but by mid-September, the U.P. is a show of reds, oranges, yellows, purples, and greens. It is breathtaking.

Take a day trip to the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park for scenic views overlooking the Lake of the Clouds. Stop near the park entrance for a short hike to Manabehzo Falls.

Tahquamenon Falls might be the most visited of the over 200 waterfalls in the U.P. The Upper Falls, one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi, has a drop of nearly 50 feet, more than 200 feet across, and a water flow of more than 50,000 gallons per second.
