Cabin is just the right size fr a small family vacation! Hosts were amazing! My only complaint is that it didn’t have air conditioning n the main floor. Room air conditioning units upstairs…

Welcoming. We were very close to all the activities we needed to get to and still had a peaceful place to unwind. Especially loved the fire pit and the ripening blackberries we found. I can imagine how perfect the property is for winter fun!

Family vacation to Pictured Rocks

This property was perfect for what we needed. A home away from home, just off the beaten path. Quiet and peaceful. It was a great “home base” for our Pictures Rocks adventures. Thanks again!
