The cabins at Expedition Inn make a great base camp for exploring the UP. Owner was extremely helpful as well as knowledgeable about the area.

Great bear chase stay
Absolutely loved the place. It was perfectly suitable for us doing the great bear chase. Location was excellent.
Two things I would recommend to make it even better would be a grab bar in the shower. And the shower curtain could be washed.
The cabin was the perfect stay for enjoying the quiet and snowy up north woods. It’s walking distance to the snow show trails and short drive to mt Bohemia. We loved the proximity to calumet Main Street for good food and coffee. The cabin is modern and cozy. Would definitely reserve again!
Our little cabin was just adorable and perfect for my boyfriend, myself and our boarder collie. It was very clean and I loved how secluded it was. We had a nice little fire in our fire pit on our second night there. We will definitely be back!
We absolutely loved our stay. It was so nice to be able to travel with our dogs. We also got to enjoy the Northern lights from our fire on our final night. We will be back for another stay!
Dusty inside cabin. Debris on patio and an entrance door.
Had issues locking the door, with the code. Took several attempts to get it locked. Frustrating as hell!!!!

Great place with the ability to enjoy a fire too!
We really enjoyed our stay. It was clean , almost new, and everything we needed. We enjoyed the fire pit with grill both nights of our stay and felt this was an important part of us choosing this accommodation. The kitchenette was not stocked to do any cooking so we bought plates and silverware. After letting the owner know of our need however, plates and silverware showed up the next morning!!
Nice, affordable, private, and very clean modern cabins. Perfect as a base camp, 40 minutes from Copper Harbor. We enjoyed the mountain bike trails as well in Calumet, where the trail head is a short bike ride away from the cabin. I would highly recommend staying if you enjoy silent sports like cross country skiing, hiking, or mountain biking. the cabins are also a five-minute car ride to some great beaches on Lake Superior.

Great location, quiet, virtually on the trails and pet friendly.
This property is 5 star plus !! Modern studio style cabin, plenty of room from neighbors,,
Just outside of town for anything you may need, walking trail and c.c. ski trails on site,,
Communication from property outstanding,,I rolled in late Sunday,,with combination to door and walked into a cabin that didn’t have a spec of dust. Patio with table and chairs also raised fire pit/bbq. Personally I would ask to light up it was mid August when I was there the woods is your front yard. On site owner John is a local with a wealth of local knowledge and an answer to any question. This is the best place I have ever stayed in the U.P. ,,,5 star plus !!!
