We had a wonderful stay. The place was spotless, the beds were very comfortable, and Jen provided clear instructions for an stress-free check-in/check-out. First time here and we will be back. Well stocked, everything you need is right in the house. Highly recommend. Home away from home!

The house is beautiful & property was very clean. The outside area was disappointing - no chairs/firewood, no grass area had been mowed so there was no usable green space for the kids to play. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We’re very sorry that there wasn’t any firewood and also that our chairs were no longer there. We’ve now purchased more chairs.

This property more than exceeded our expectations. The property was clean and inviting and felt like home. The host was very easy to communicate with, and we were greeted with a welcome basket. We spent a holiday weekend exploring local attractions, all within 15 minutes of the property. In our down time my children enjoyed the game and craft closet. We spent a full afternoon at the pool which was also kid friendly. Highly recommend! We can't wait to come back.

We had a wonderful 5 day visit with our daughter and her family. The home was nicely updated and decorated and was extremely clean and comfortable. There were lots of little extras which was nice in case we didn’t think of something or forgot to bring it along. Our host Jenn was very responsive to any questions and checked in from time to time to make sure everything was good. Our granddaughters loved the outdoor area and fire pit. There was plenty of room for them to play and discover nature. Everyone had a great time!

What a gorgeous place! This house has everything you could want and more for a Northern Michigan experience. We loved the "local, northern themed" goodies. Quiet, private, wooded location but still close enough to surrounding attractions, dining etc. Very clean, comfortable, up to date appliances and decor. We wish we could have stayed longer. Would be perfect for a couple small families.Communication with Jennifer was pleasant and she responded quickly.We didn't end up using the pool/hot tub pass but that area is also nice.Plenty of parking.We will be checking availability for the next time we are visiting the area for sure!
