Anniversary Vacation

Property was gorgeous. Loved the views of the river while drinking my coffee on the deck or hanging out in the hot tub. Close to downtown traverse but also quiet and very private. Kitchen was well stocked. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Only complaints would be that the property was a little dusty and there was a lot of dog hair on the futon and blankets. Also, air did not work well when it got very humid one day. This was minor though. Would definitely stay here again

Cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location, setting, and relaxing views was amazing, I think we might have been one of the first of the season though because the water had a very rotten egg smell and we could not shower because the hot water was very rancid smelling. but the cabin was clean, well stocked for supplies and was so very cozy and welcoming.

I Want To Keep This Place As Our Little Secret

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing rental! Probably the best location that we have found in Michigan, so much so that we started looking for riverfront property as soon as we got home so that we could have a place like this to escape to whenever we wanted - but so far, this place has been one of a kind! It's not a big place, but it was cozy and more than accommodating for the two of us to feel right at home. The kitchen was well-appointed, and the bed was comfortable. The only thing that we had trouble with when we arrived after sunset was finding the light switches, but it makes for a fun game to find what they are hidden behind (in the daylight). The pairing of the hot tub and the river was perfect, and what's more, being able to bring our pups along for this adventure was a wonderful addition.

Idyllic spot to unwind and relax

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We just completed our second stay and can’t say enough about how lovely this location is, how comfortable and relaxing. It’s a perfect combination of modern convenience and old charm on a wonderful spot. There is no beating sitting on the porch, taking in the woods and Boardman River flowing by within a few feet of you.
