West End Stay & Play - Vacation Rentals

Located in the heart of downtown Ishpeming, our vacation rentals make a great homebase for all of your outdoor adventures. The RAMBA trail network has 80 miles of singletrack trails for mountain biking, trail running, and hiking, and the main trailhead is one mile away. We are located two blocks away from the finish line of the Marji Gesick and Polar Roll Ultra. Access to snowmobile trails is just a few blocks away on Hematite. Cross country skiing is available nearby at the UP Nordic Ski Complex or Al Quaal in Ishpeming, or Forestville in Marquette. 


Local favorites like Congress Pizza, Velodrome Coffee Company, The Ish Creamery, and Rare Earth Goods Cafe are just a short walk away. Main Street has three antique stores to browse, and history buffs can check out the Cliffs Shaft Mine Museum and U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame and Museum, both in Ishpeming, and the Michigan Iron Industry Museum in nearby Negaunee. We are also located a short drive from Marquette Mountain and the NTN North and South Trails in Marquette.
