Perfect

We had an absolutely wonderful and comfortable stay. I went with my husband, 15, 14 and 11 year olds. We all really loved the game room. They provided a lot of just in case items, answered alright away, and even left me a balloon and card for my birthday. Great size yard. And the home was simply beautiful and cozy. I will definitely be staying again. I could honestly go on and on with how pleased we were.

Loaded with amenities

Uncle Dave's cabin is not a large place but it is very clean and comfortable and loaded with amenities. The kitchen has spices and other food items and there is an assortment of toiletry items if you have forgotten anything. Then there are the little chocolates on each bed. Plus there is the game room should you run into inclement weather. On top of that, should you have a question from the property owners, you get an immediate response. We were very happy with our stay here.

As advertised - enjoyed our stay

One thing we really liked about the place was the ability to park a boat there as we were there to go fish the Saginaw bay. It had a place to clean fish/game and a man cave - couldn't really ask for more given our goals.
