The treehouses are amazing! We had absolutely everything that you could think of. The owners had thought of every detail. It was so relaxing and so nice to get away and be in the trees. We loved our stay and plan to be back.

An excellent spot for peace and quiet. Reading a few books among the trees was exactly what we needed to unwind. Not too far from Traverse City, Arcadia, Frankfort and other places of interest. Very clean and well appointed. Had everything we needed and then some.

Absolutely heavenly!! Impeccably built and meticulously appointed. Immaculate inside and out. The owners have thought of absolutely everything. The location is secluded but not at all creepy (I would have felt comfortable by myself) and convenient to so many great places to find adventure. We had tickets for two shows at Interlochen during our stay, but honestly it was hard to leave the cottage. We left completely rejuvenated. Best place I’ve ever stayed.
Absolutely perfect!

Beautiful and peaceful place

Spent the night here after a slushy day at Crystal Mountain. Was super clean, well stocked, and obviously well thought out construction. Easy communication with the host, and was stocked and ready for us when we arrived. I highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful Stay

Everything was perfect! The treehouse was well stocked with everything we needed and more. Incredibly peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful views all around. Comfy beds, super clean, great shower, which is a must after a day of exploring/hiking :) We enjoyed the fire pit at night and the quiet mornings on the deck surrounded by trees. We hope to return someday!

Mini Honeymoon

We stayed 3 nights in August immediately following our wedding. We LOVED this rental. The natural surrounding was just the escape we needed. We spent our days exploring the Lake Michigan beaches and in the evening made dinner and spent time by the fire. We loved that the rental came with all sorts of amenities. We definitely plan to book again.

Absolutely stunning property! Spotlessly clean and every amenity you could possibly think of. The only thing I’ll note,which is not a complaint, is that the driveway is extremely long and dirt and might be a little difficult to navigate if you have a car that’s low. I had a truck, but I’m sure my minivan could’ve gotten through. again not a complaint. Just something to note. Can’t wait to see this place when he’s finally finished building the rest of his cabins. I’ll definitely be back.

Perfect!

This was the most amazing place we have ever stayed. It’s perfect. Very clean and well appointed. We went for our anniversary, what a wonderful place to reconnect with each other. We never wanted to leave. Already have plans to return next year. You will feel so close to nature, but not far from Traverse City or Interlochen. Priceless!
