100% recommend! Fabulous and comfortable house with everything you need. Walking to town was a treat for all the restaurants and shopping. Laura was the best host! Lots of info upfront to plan and offered early check in without us asking. It’s not always possible and it made our travel day so much easier. Will definitely stay again, great house, host and town.

Boyne City Gem!

Our second time staying in this gorgeous home. As good, if not better than the photos, fantastic location, and amazing communication with owner. Will continue to rent any time we are in the area! Both times we have stayed were for a baseball tournaments, so had several other families staying around the same area. All who stopped by the house both years have been envious of the beautiful place we found to stay. 10/10 recommend!

Christmas Ski Trip

The house was nice, clean, welcoming and cozy. Well stocked with everything we needed. The area was nice. Safe cozy quiet street. Our first time in Michigan was a nice one. We were blessed with lots of snow. Had a great time on the slopes and enjoyed some shopping in Petoskey. Thanks for everything.
