A Blue Gem

My family of 6 found this home to be very comfortable, clean, and accommodating. Close to beach access, the store, coffee, restaurants, and boat launches. The host was great to communicate with, and very friendly. We came for the Forth of July, and the parade and fireworks did not disappoint! I’ve been visiting IR since I was a baby and it is my favorite place to always come back to. While providing plenty activities of its own, only a short drive from Petoskey, Cheyboygan, Mackinaw City, and just a few hours from Pictures Rocks, it is situated in the perfect spot.

My family and I came here on vacation. It was the first time being out of the country for me. My husband and I chose this home due to it being in a nice quiet area. We both live very busy lives full of noise and many people. This trip was also a trip for me to meet my mother in law for the first time and for my husband to see his mom who he hasn’t seen in almost 20 years due to travel. I would always come back here in the future.

2 Night Stay

We stayed here and commuted to Mackinaw city for the day. This older home has nice cozy feeling. The beds are comfortable and my wife loved the soaking tub. The host was prompt at responding back to the question that I had about the grill onsite. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies. The only complaint was we arrived at 9:30 pm and the outside motion light wasn’t bright at all we had to due with cell phone flash lights.

Incredible Indian River Home!

We booked this property to stay in while in Petoskey for a soccer tournament. This was our first time staying in Indian River. The house is in a nice quiet neighborhood and only minutes away from restaurants, grocery stores and shopping. The property was very clean and exactly as described. We were happy to see coffee and keurig pods - especially since we had to be up early for a game! My boys liked being a short walk to multiple fishing locations. There was also a nice selection of games. The host, Mike, was very responsive and great to work with. We can’t wait to come back again!!

GREAT Location for Anytime Getaway

We appreciate Indian River's central location for trips to surrounding towns as we build our new home in Cheboygan, MI.Maison Bleu is an ideal place to stay. It is conveniently located near dining options, a coffee shop, and a grocery store. The bed and living room seating were comfortable. We also loved the creative vibe throughout the house.Mike was a responsive and gracious host. We're already planning our next visit.

Weekend getaway

Nice house and area! True to what listing showed. Close beach access was great! Only thing I would have preferred is window coverings on kitchen window and back door. Property is close to the road and I prefer window coverage especially at night. Just a personal preference for me.

Property was beautiful and well kept. Very clean. Only negative was there was only one small window air conditioning unit for the whole house. The portable one in the closet made a god awful screeching noise and the ceiling dans clunked like they were gonna fall off the ceiling. Made for a pretty warm week. That’s the only complaint we had.

Wonderful home in a perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is remodeled nicely, and was very comfortable. Mike was great, responding to a few questions that we had very quickly. Mike has though of just about everything as far as making the place feel like home and have everything we could possibly need during our stay. The location was perfect. Indian River is 25 minutes from Cheboygan, Mackinaw, and Petoskey. That means plenty of places to wander and explore and great restaurants as well. We also enjoyed wandering the quiet and friendly neighborhood. It's a short walk to the city beach and to the shops and restaurants on main street. Thanks, Mike for making our stay and our Northern Lower Michigan vacation so relaxing and fun.
