Great host communication throughout. Easy check in, house exactly as advertised with a well stocked kitchen. Location between Boyne and the Highland and close to restaurants made it perfect for our ski weekend. Would definitely stay again

We unfortunately, had to cancel our stay. I was planning on doing the Walloon lake triathlon, but the air quality was terrible. Shyla was a great host, I let her know. We will definitely re book with her.

Perfect for 2 family’s with 3 littles. Awesome location for skiing around Petoskey, steps away from the roller rink, and restaurant. Toys and books for the kids were a hit and nice distraction while we unpacked. Great spot!

Great location

Very happy with the house for our work trip. We had business in Boyne City and stay in the area 3-4 times a year. This location is within a 10 min drive to Boyne and walkable to “downtown” Walloon lake. Centrally located between quite a few up north travel destinations. Will definitely try and book again if they are available!

Amazing stay

Hostess was very helpful and communicated very well. The house was very nice inside and out and accomidations, (water, ice, condiments, snacks, shampoo)were also very nice of the hostess to leave us. Location was perfectly between petosky and Walloon Lake so you get the best of both cities.

Snowmobile Weekend

Everything about your place was very, very, nice. I can tell it is mostly intended for summertime. However, there are some beautiful trails near there and details on how to get to them would help. It's very doable, but letting customer know that they can stage and access them less than 10 minutes away would be helpful! Very pleased with the property itself!

Very nice place

Super clean. Clear instructions. Owner was very responsive. We'd stay again. .....except there were lots of earwigs because of the extraordinarily hot weather. Also because of heat and lakes shallow beach , son and kids got swimmers itch. Not Vrbos fault , of course, but be careful out there.
