Discover Lil' Casa Marquette!

In a neighborhood just off the beaten path, sits Lil' Casa; an inviting and peaceful southwest-style home in beautiful Marquette, Michigan.

Centrally located and minutes from Marquette Mountain, NMU, the hospital, grocery stores, as well as all the biking, boating, and snow activities you could dream of! This is a great location to launch your next seasonal adventure, visit your student at NMU, attend one of Marquette's many community events, or just enjoy a good night's sleep.

Just up the road to the east toward the fit-strip is an awesome view of the surrounding area, Hogsback MT, Sugar Loaf MT, and Lake Superior can be seen in the distance. A short walk through the fit strip and adjacent cemetery (which local legend has it was designed by the same landscaping pioneers as Central Park and the Biltmore Estate gardens) leads you towards the city center.

If you like getting around by foot or bike, you'll love that you are only steps away from the Marquette Bike Path System for easy access to the Presque Isle nature area, downtown Marquette, and the Lower Harbor.

In the back of the house, you will find a deck along with a fenced-in backyard offering a private outdoor space to enjoy your coffee in the morning or relax in the evening after a day out and about. Enjoy a peach or two off of the tree or pick some red raspberries from the abundance of bushes. The back fence is lined with lilac bushes on one side and grape vines on the other (the grapes are ripe and ready to pick in October). There are many flowering plants and bushes throughout the outside space including irises and Lilly of the Valley.
Experiences local flare with a visit to the farmer's market (Saturday & Wednesday evenings), Beer Fest, Artofnh the Rocks, dog sled races, and other community festivals and shenanigans.

Going back home

Went back to an area where I went to college with my husband for a friend’s wedding. The house was a perfect location in the city to go to the venue, plus have fun in the city going to the old haunts 😊

Always just right!

We are repeat guests and spend several days in Marquette each year, usually in September. Bethney is a great host - always proactive and kind. And the house is squeaky clean inside and has a great fenced in back yard for our dogs - so it works for the whole family. We'll be back again!

lovely home in great location

What a lovely home and property! We had a great time. The gorgeous garden and flowers were a definite plus. The home is very nicely furnished and was perfect for us. The location is great (quiet but close to everything). The host made us feel very much at home (and even left chocolates). We hope to return again!

A Get-Away Gem

Our stay was all we expected, and more. Check-in was so easy and it's a great location! We loved the yard and fenced backyard overflowing with beautiful fruit trees and blooming flowers--our pups loved to explore the fringes and chase the chipmunks! Very clean and very comfortable. We will definitely put this on our re-do list! My only request would be for Cable TV to be available.

Great Little Place!

I stayed for 17 days to visit my NMU student. I found it to be a very convenient location to the Dome, campus, dining, trails, and I brought my dog along and he enjoyed the fenced-in backyard. The house was clean and had everything you need for an extended stay. I plan to stay again and highly recommend!!!

Nice, Clean, and Reasonable

We enjoyed our stay here! It was freshly cleaned, had towels and fans available to us (A/C only in the bedroom), and felt homey for our short trip to Marquette. The only thing we wished it had was a washer / dryer, but didn't plan on it when packing so no biggie. Would definitely go back, thanks Lil' Casa!

Marquette

We was looking forward to the hot tub that was included in the listing when we booked it. Really disappointed when we got there and there was no hot tub. Little honesty would have been great. Overall nice location and the inside was very clean. Outside needs a lot of work including the front porch entrance. Will book it again in the future!!
