Da Big House Perfection
This is our 3rd or 4th time staying at Cory's "Da Big House" and we will be staying again! This home has everything we need for a sledding trip to the UP. Close to the trails, plenty of parking, nice beds, and space for everyone. Cory is a great communicator and as usual, extremely helpful! Book it!

XC ski weekend without snow
We actually had a great time in Au Train on a planned ski weekend that was snowless. Great space for 5 adults, two teenagers and two dogs. The location was actually perfect - maybe even more convenient than right on the lakeshore. Cory took care of two minor issues we had immediately. Would stay again without question.

Da Big House was a great stay.
The kitchen was well stocked for sure. We had plenty of towels and toilette paper. When we called for additional paper products and towels they were delivered promptly. There is plenty of room for up 10 I'd say without using the futons for sleeping. There are a couple of futons but who really wants to sleep on one. The living room furniture could use an update but it was adequate. I read past complaints about the floors being dirty. Just to let you know every time you come back in the house you are bringing lots of sand with you so just sweep the floor daily. There were 6 of us, all adults, and we really enjoyed our stay at this house.

Amazing up north getaway
My wife and I along with some of our friends decided to go up north to see pictured rocks and the fall colors. We wanted a spacious and comfortable place to stay and this place fit our exact wants. It was so spacious comfortable with amazing amenities. The host was welcoming and responded to any inquires. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice home. My friends and I will most definitely rent this property again for future adventures!

Hidden Gem
This property was absolutely perfect in every way! The beds were super comfy with an abundance of pillows and extra blankets. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, silverware, pots and pans, and several different types of spices, along with coffee and filters. The living and dining room/kitchen area was open-concept and great for visiting, meals, and playing games and watching TV. The deck had a sitting area and grill and the backyard boasted a fire pit with plenty of chairs. We rented for the Northern/Michigan Tech football game and it was awesome for some much-needed extended family time. There are plenty of ORV trails right near the rental and the beach is a super short walk. There is a cute store with many different types of foods (fresh soups, breads, pizza, etc.) and even a deck of cards since we forgot ours right across the street. A true UP hidden gem! We will definitely be back!
