We truly enjoyed our stay here. The place was super clean. It was well appointed with plenty of pillows, blankets, towels and essentials such as paper towelsn dish soap etc. There was even shampoo and conditioner in the shower and mini soaps and lotions. A very nice touch was the packet of makeuo remover wipes. The kitchen had salt and pepper and a few other cooking basics. It was very quiet as advertised. It is a great central location to many towns and slopes although we didn't ski. The bed was pretty comfortable and the shower was nice and hot. We will totally rent here again the next time we stay in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Heather Bentley

Host profile image
Getting to know people & reading are my favorite hobbies. My husband and I really enjoy Northern Michigan and it’s wonderful walking trails in the summer( a.k.a. snowshoeing trails in the winter). We have five children that love to swim, ski and keep us hopping. Our favorite restaurant is The Barrel Back found in Walloon Lake Village (just three minutes from the rental). It sits above the lake so you can watch the boats or snowmobilers come in depending on the season. I enjoy hosting the rental and hope that guests will find everything they need at the apartment and have a pleasant stay.-Heather
