We really enjoyed D'Bar! Perfect place to sprawl out and relax. We really enjoyed our stay. Especially nice that they had a full kitchen and dining area where we could cook our own meals. Close to Houghton and only an hour from Copper Harbor. Loved it all.

Our family stayed here during MTU move in weekend. It was nice to be able to cook our own meals and avoid the very busy downtown area while still being a short drive to campus. This was a much better deal than any of the hotels. It has a rustic feel and is nothing fancy, but it met our needs for the weekend and my kids enjoyed having their own rooms. We will likely stay again when we come to visit.

Absolutely loved the suite! It was very clean and came with anything you could think of for a long stay trip. We had only stayed for one night, but it was an amazing night! The owner Donna was extremely friendly and helpful, the suite was very clean, and any information you might need you can find inside. I would recommend this place 100 times over if you're looking for a cozy place to set up base for a long trip. We'll definitely be back again if we're in the area!

Very comfortable and generally clean. Enjoyed having a full apartment with seating area and kitchen. Beds were comfortable. Not as clean as the hotels we had stayed in during our trip as some furniture had significant stains on them which made me not want to use it. Kitchen pans could use replacing. It would have been helpful to have a guide on how to use the two remotes: finally figured them out after some frustration.

Gregory

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The amount of space and places to sleep were great with the kids along. The outside light was burnt out so it was pitch dark when we arrived. The one bedroom also had a light bulb out and didn’t work. There was one window air conditioner and it was in a bedroom so the door had to stay open to cool the main area. Parking was great as we could park next to our room. When looking to make sure we had everything while looking under beds the floor was not clean. The batteries in the tv remote were dead and so we used the box itself attached to the tv which was very annoying. All in all it was ok but not great.

The bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels. The bedding was good. The pans in the kitchen were unusable as the teflon coating was badly disintegrating. I had planned on making breakfast before we left.

Great for All Purposes

D’s Base Camp caters more to adventurers, whilst we simply needed a reasonably priced place to stay overnight for college move-in weekend. With that said, you really can’t go wrong with multiple rooms, bathrooms, and kitchen. Will be looking to stay here again the next time we’re in town.
