We have stayed before and it’s very nice. The only thing is the path to the porch is stepping stones and grass. We had someone with a rolling walker and it was a challenge. But once inside, it was great. We enjoyed it .

I travel a lot and book at VRBO’S and I have to say that this house was by far the cleanest, most organized and comfortable house I have been at ! The price was great and the owners were very accommodating and friendly. My family and I enjoyed watching the horses in the pasture. If I could rate this stay, it would be a 10 ! Thank you again for such a wonderful stay and we will be returning in the future.

House is clean and well maintained. Quite location but still close to everything. The screened in porch is a nice amenity as bugs can be an issue in northern Michigan in the summer. We have stayed here twice now and most likely will again the next time we visit Grayling.

Beautiful rental in a quiet area. Plenty of parking. Lots of room in the home. It could easily handle six people. Big fenced in area for children in the back yard. Screened in back porch area and comfortable front porch. The kitchen was clean and seemed to have everything we needed. Washer and dryer were available if needed. The host was quick to respond. This was our second time staying there and we totally enjoyed it. When we go that way again we hope it will be available .
