Perfect chill Cabby getaway

We had such a delightful time at this cabin just a couple of minutes from the slopes at Caberfae for closing weekend. The cabin had everything we needed to cook and cozy up for the week. We were also only 30ish mins from crystal for the weekdays. The beds were super comfy and we had a wonderful time. Dory was super fair and a great communicator throughout our stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Ski Trip!

Convenient to Caberfae Peaks resort, staying here meant we could have plenty of space, a kitchen and table, etc. for the whole family instead of staying in a hotel. We were able to ski together, cook together, and spend a wonderful couple days together overall. Hopefully, we’ll be back next winter for more of the same! We definitely appreciated the plowed driveway, btw.; Cadillac area had a ton of snow on the ground when we visited.

Great weekend getaway

The cabin is very cozy, nicely appointed, and has a super comfortable and homey feel. We enjoyed family conversations on the deck and at the fire pit. Dory has done a superb job with decorations and furniture. It is the perfect place for a relaxing family getaway with plenty of outdoor activities nearby.

Wonderful Ski Cabin

We had a fantastic stay at Dory's lovely Cabin while we skied at nearby Caberfae (10min walk!). Communication with Dory was excellent, check-in was very smooth, and the cabin was perfect! Clean, warm, well laid out and the beds were really comfy. Dory was flexible with us on our check-out time, which we really appreciated, and we had a fantastic stay. We will definitely be back and recommend this cabin to anyone!

Would stay here again

This was one of the most well-stocked places that I’ve ever stayed at. Appliances were older, but worked very well and everything was spotlessly clean. Box AC units in every bedroom kept the place nice and cool. Dory was very quick to respond to my questions. She was very accommodating when I asked for a later check-out due to running a half marathon that day. Overall, a very nice place to stay and will be staying here again in the future.
