Great place for two families with 4 adults and 7 kids. Plenty of sleeping spaces, and gathering spaces for playing games and watching movies. Used the garage as a fun gaming spot with getting eaten by mosquitoes. Close to munising and pictured rocks. We even got fresh eggs from the host!

Hickey Creek was a very nice location for our family trip. The kids really enjoyed the game room in the basement. The steps inside the home were very steep for my dad.

It was an amazing weekend. The house had plenty of space and plenty to do. The hosts (John and Wendy) were amazing. They were fast to answer any questions we had and the banana bread upon our arrival was such a great gesture. We will definitely be back

Family Wedding Weekend

We were here for a wedding (Three couples.) Plenty of space and fully stocked kitchen. We enjoyed the pool table, the card table downstairs and especially the bar! Perfect place for a weekend stay in about 15 minutes minutes from Munising. It’s so funny

Snowmobile Weekend

Great location close to the trails. House was very clean and well maintained. Heated garage was awesome for snowmobiles and gear. Large parking for easy of use with trailers. Really one of the best places we have rented for snowmobiling. Host was friendly and easy to work with! Even made us banana bread and chili. Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed.

Cousin UP Trip

House was very well stocked, lots of space for our family group. Our first day, it was 91 degrees so the AC struggled to keep up but pretty good considering. Next day in the 50's. crazy weather. We had a very short stay so we weren't able to use the downstair game room -just not enough time! Looking forward to returning.

Lots of family (common) room, we could all gather in one room or break into smaller groups without interference. The back porch is a quiet heaven, absolutely beautiful. The basement is a kids/man retreat. Would recommend 5 stars if Lions flags were hung over the GB ones. GRIT- GO LIONSPs we left something behind and John was wonderful and fast at mailing it to us! 10/10

Wonderful stay at Hickey Creek Lodge

We were 7 adults and 3 kids. Really spacious and well equipped house. John and Wendy have really gone all out to make it a fun place. They had a loaf of freshly baked banana bread to welcome us into the house. So heart warming. Out of the 6 days, got rained out for 2 days so stayed indoors and enjoyed the pool table, table tennis and board games they had. Plenty of space to hang out.Well equipped kitchen, made all meals at the home. Big capacity washer and 2 dryers that worked really well. Lots of linen and towels. Location was perfect to go to all local attractions. The only downside for us was that the mattresses were too soft.

Family vacation

The place was beautiful! The only thing I could say bad about it was the beds and the directions to get there were wrong! The room with the two twins the beds were horrible! And a couple of the other beds were like slanted. We didn’t have the greatest phone service up there so when the directions on the VRBO site were wrong it was frustrating trying to get a hold of the host to get the right address. But the place it’s self was great and the hosts were super responsive and we had banana bread waiting for us when we arrived. We also had asked about the horse shoes and they brought them right away! Unfortunately by time my message was sent about the horse shoes we didn’t have time to play. We all enjoyed ourselves so much and would definitely go back!! Lots to do with family and friends at the house and in the area!
