Description from owner
Description
Enjoy your next vacation at this beautiful riverfront property. With stunning Lake Superior views, it's the ideal place to unwind and get away from it all. Located on the banks of Sand River in Northern Michigan's pristine Upper Peninsula, where clean air, water, wildlife & beautiful scenery abound. The property is open year-round.
Welch's Riverview Retreat is a 3000 sq. ft. home on a 1.8-acre riverfront, Lake Superior view lot. Decks offer a stunning Lake Superior and Sand River view. The home also features unobstructed views of the Sand River Bridge, which is on the National Register of Historic Places.
This is a great space for family and friends, with plenty of room to play. If you're seeking a sleek, modern space, this may not be for you. We are in a non-urban region, and as such, the home has more of a country feel to it.
The water in this area has a high iron content which adds a slightly amber color. It also discolors tubs, showers, toilets, etc. We have a high-end filtration system in the basement, however, you may still see evidence of the iron, which would be much worse without the system. It is nothing to be alarmed by and is completely safe. Those familiar with the area know that the bay in Marquette was once referred to as "Iron Bay" because of the huge presence of iron in the area. In addition, this is not a city water system and water pressure is impacted if multiple people are showering or laundry is being done at the same time. We recommend staggering showers for best results. Thank you for understanding, it's one of those things that go along with being outside of town.

Response from the owner Dear Wulpi1, First, I want to thank you for your feedback. While I wish, you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it’s apparent in this case, we fell very short. I am sorry for the issues you encountered. What you have explained should not have occurred and I am investigating what happened. If you give us a chance to earn back your trust, we will offer you a discount and I can assure you that Welch's Riverview Retreat will be ready for you. I would be happy to make your reservation personally and and see to it that you enjoy the experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of. All the best, Jennifer Welch, Owner
