Serenity has pretty much everything you need and appears as advertised. If you're looking for a quiet spot in this area, it's one I'd recommend, especially if you need pet friendly. Everything was clean upon our arrival and we enjoyed our stay.

Family Ski weekend & stay at Serenity
Serenity was the perfect place to stay for myself and two teen boys who enjoy the outdoors. We skied Crystal mountain during the day and enjoyed walking up and ending down in the quiet peaceful woods surrounding this property. On our way out of town we stopped at Platte River Point Beach for scenic hike along Lake Michigan where we discovered some beautiful stone picking where the Platte River flows into the lake. We stopped in Copemish for brunch at the Copenmish Kitchen & Coffee. A true mom, pop & kids run kitchen. No frills just good quality ingredients with homemade love. We love supporting small local businesses ❤️💯. #grateful

Hidden Gem
Oh my! What an amazing property hidden back in the woods with deer visiting at dusk and early morning! While this property isn't huge, it is cozy and is beautiful! It also has THE best appointed kitchens I've ever come across at a rental. It made cooking Christmas Eve dinner a breeze. I highly recommend this property and would stay here again without hesitation when I'm up North again!

We really enjoyed our stay here it’s very pretty in the fall time with all the colors. It’s close to some fun areas to explore such as Esch beach, lake platte beach at sunset so pretty, sleeping bear sand dunes, Glen arbor (cherry republic), town of empire (chocolate store), and some cute places in honor Michigan such as the pizza diner. Also, we enjoyed fishing on platter river for some salmon and trout. Overall, peaceful setting and very clean house. Thank you for allowing us to stay here we enjoyed it.

Peaceful, pretty, and secluded
Lovely property - tons of fall color and very quiet and secluded. We loved that we could get away from the world after a day of sightseeing. It was a nice area to walk our dog. Very nice cottage with tons of helpful furnishings and supplies. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking gadgets, and there were tons of towels and bed linens. The bathroom was roomy and the king-sized bed was welcome! The wifi was reliable and very fast. Highly recommended!

Private escape
Serenity Woods is just that. Serenity in the woods. Wonderfully quiet and secluded, we really enjoyed our weekend in the woods. My wife commented that it was very cute and cozy and just right for our two night stay. And I concur. It had everything that we needed for the weekend, including a comfortable king size bed, a nice sized bathroom as well as a nice living room and kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay at Serenity Woods and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
