Your Superior Vacation Destination | House in Ontonagon
3 Bedroom House in Silver City, Ontonagon
Experience the best of Michigan's Upper Peninsula from this stunning 3-bedroom waterfront retreat, uniquely positioned where the Big Iron River flows into Lake Superior. With panoramic views from a sprawling second-story wraparound deck, the Silver City Light House offers front-row seats to one of the most spectacular settings in the Great Lakes region.
The Space
This thoughtfully designed home sleeps 8 guests comfortably across 3 bedrooms and 4 beds, with 1.5 bathrooms. The heart of the home is the main living area that opens onto the magnificent wraparound deck—your private observation platform for freighter watching, sunset viewing, and taking in the endless blue expanse of Lake Superior.
Location Note: The Silver City Light House is conveniently located adjacent to the AmericInn by Wyndham Silver City, with private parking accessed from the hotel lot. This prime location means you're steps away from the hotel's restaurant and amenities while enjoying the privacy and space of your own vacation home. The property does boast a large yard for activies and a private fire pit to finish out the evening.
Your Million-Dollar View
Perched at the convergence of river and lake, you'll enjoy dual water frontage that's rare even in the UP. Watch the Big Iron River wind its way to Superior's shore, catch the evening light dancing across the waves, and witness the ever-changing moods of the world's largest freshwater lake. In the distance, the Porcupine Mountains create a dramatic backdrop to this stunning shoreline setting.
While the home offers a sense of peaceful seclusion with generous distance from foot traffic, guests should note that per Michigan law, the Lake Superior shoreline is public access. Hotel guests and beachgoers may occasionally walk along the beach, though the natural layout provides comfortable separation from the property.
