Quiet and Relaxing

The property was perfect to relax and enjoy time with family after shopping and visiting local attractions. The town is very cute and owner of Jasper’s diner was very kind and welcoming. The food was amazing. We will definitely return.

Brown Bear Cottage

Wonderful stay! Everything was very clean, and a lot of nice touches (soap and shampoo/conditioner available, laundry soap, everything needed for a great stay). All of us had a great time.

Home away from home!

We felt very comfortable in the cabin. Kitchen facilities were appreciated, beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed sitting on the porch during the evening. We wouldn’t hesitate returning.

Weekend getaway

Place was as advertised. Nice lake and if we go back next year we plan to look it up again. No issues at all so almost no contact with host but prompt reply when we checked out just to say thanks.

Long weekend

We come up for the weekend to go to crossroads village and Frankenmuth. The kids loved all the games in the house each night we sat down as a family and played games together. Was perfect for our family.

Mother/Daughter Frankenmuth Trip!

Perfect spot to unwind! Cute cabin in a small, quaint town! My mother and I explored Frankenmuth (an east 25-30 minute drive) for a day and a half. Otherwise we enjoyed some down time at the cabin and local options. Innovation Brewing (approx 25-30 minute drive) was a great local spot!

Mini vaca

The home was cozy. The only complaint is that the fitted sheets, toilet, and shower were not clean and the town isnt cery welcoming.

Quick Get Away

Fun few days. Comfortable cabin on the rustic side. Cement floors, sulfur water. Nice bedrooms, 30 minutes from Frankenmuth/Birch Run. Not on the lake, close though.

Nice place!

Overall our stay was awesome. House is beautifully decorated. Loved the cement floors and the plank wood ceiling! Especially loved the new deck, to hang out and spend time with family. I kayaked through Otter lake through the channel to the connecting lake (unsure of name) and this was a total highlight! So peaceful and relaxing - the channel was lined with wildflowers in the water. So pretty! We did have to pay $5 for parking to swim and I also paid $7 to use the boat launch to be able to kayak (I was told there were other ways to launch but locals denied this), however this was totally worth it to me. The sand bottom and clear water was awesome. We had bonfires every night, lots of Adirondack chairs for everyone to sit around it.

Girls weekend

A cute little place that served our needs perfectly! Nice porch area and nice small town. Street in front is kind of noisy but not too bad. We had one small problem upon checking in but Tiffany was very quick to respond and took care of it right away. Would stay here again for sure!

Nice stay

Property was as described. Located right in town. But it’s a cute little town. Lake was a nice view out back. We had a little trouble with the key pad lock. If you pull the door too tight it doesn’t want to lock. But once we figured that out we didn’t have as much of a problem. Overall the cabin was cute and had everything we needed. We would stay again.
