Property Description
The Miner is beautifully remodeled, and centrally located in historic Hancock MI. The the famed Jack Stevens snowmobile trail #17 is located directly across the street, offering easy access to hundreds of miles of groomed trails taking you across Michigan's Upper Peninsula. We provide easy access to Houghton (1.6 miles), Michigan Tech (2.3 miles), Finlandia University (.3 miles), and historic Calumet is only 13.8 miles away. Please note that we are located along Lincoln St (US41) and the snowmobile trail. I would hate to lose your business because of it, but I would rather make sure you are happy with your stay. If you are a very light sleeper, other accommodations might be better suited for your needs. If want to be in the middle of everything, I have no doubt that you will love it!

Houghton-Hancock Repeat Customer We continue to graduate our progeny from nearby MTU, and The Miner has become a favorite place to stay to help celebrate the accomplishment.Always clean, easy to get to, effortless to stay. Everything we can hope for in an area with limited hotel/motel rooms. This time both grandmas traveled with us and they appreciated the one story layout, easy egress and mining-themed decorations!

Cute, cozy, and clean! This place is a gem! Perfect convenient location for an MTU parent, or a great spot to venture around the area. We will definitely stay here again.

Miner to Portage We were originally supposed to stay at the Miner with this owner but they called us as we were on our way from Wisconsin to ask if we’d be willing to go to a different property for the same price. Portage Center is a beautiful place and my family really enjoyed our short stay. The owner was so accommodating and when I communicated with them the day before our trip asking for a late checkout, they were not able to provide that but offered us a refund so we would be able to find a place that would work better for us. We don’t need to do that as plans had changed and we wouldn’t have one of our family members and our pet with us anymore. After letting the owner know that they refunded our pet deposit. Overall it was a wonderful stay in a beautiful updated rental in a busy place right on the road - so if you’re looking for no traffic going by this won’t be the place for you. There is a view of the water from the open concept living space and there is so much open space. The house was decorated in MTU hockey which was so fitting that we were doing preview day at MTU it our daughter

MTU visit Stayed here for our recent MTU visit. Super clean and warm for our January trip. Onsite parking is easy. Great location, nice restaurant across the street and close to downtown Hancock. The Miner’s decor was super cool with the local copper mining history. Will stay again.
