It was the perfect place for our overnight trip and everyone was able to sleep comfortably. Close to town and a quick drive away from Interlochen.

This cabin was clean and cozy and everything we needed for our trip! KimMe was very responsive and helped us with a small hiccup in our check-in. She was on top of it and made sure to get us in our unit as soon as possible. Great customer service. Would stay again!

Very rustic, but clean. We appreciated that it was a quiet setting and welcomed our dog. Kitchen was well-appointed. Internet worked fine. Master bed has a definite slump but we made it work. Directions to operate the heater would have been helpful. We suggest a deadbolt for the kitchen entry door, and also a CO detector (there may be one but we didn't see it).

We've stayed her for 1 night for the last 4 years when we drive our son to camp . It is clean and has all the basic amenities you need for a night or weekend. Owners very accommodating with request for early check-in. Much better than a hotel for the price. Pet friendly.

This was a great location. Clean house close to Crystal where we spent the weekend skiing. We would recommend this to anyone that would be looking for a place to stay and have time for their winter snow sports.

Comfortable Cabin for the four of us.

Great location while visiting our family. The cabin has a great kitchen with everything we needed. It was clean with comfortable beds. We brought an extra fan with us. Host was quickly responsive when we had questions.
