5 Bedroom House in Harvey, Marquette
Welcome to your private waterfront retreat on the Chocolay River, where you can kayak to Lake Superior, bike to downtown Marquette, relax in the new (2025) hot tub, and experience the best of Michigan's Upper Peninsula from one unforgettable location. Just minutes from downtown Marquette, this peaceful riverfront setting offers easy access to restaurants, breweries, shopping, beaches, hiking, and everything the Upper Peninsula has to offer.
Set on 100 feet of private river frontage, the backyard is designed for making memories. Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered porch, spend the afternoon kayaking, prepare dinner on either the Blackstone griddle or propane grill, then gather around the fire pit or relax in the hot tub beneath the stars. Kids will spend hours playing on the custom pirate ship playhouse while adults enjoy the peaceful river views from the expansive 530-square-foot elevated deck.
Outdoor recreation begins right outside your door.
