Perfect getaway

This property was a perfect weekend getaway spot. It was just enough outside of town, but still easy to find. Everything was clean, and the fire pit was even set up for the first fire! The king bed was super comfy, and with the black-out curtains provided me amazing sleep every night. Would definitely stay here again!

Two thumbs up!

We had a great time, host went out of his way to accommodate our needs. Could use A/C, and be careful on a motorcycle - its on a gravel road, but I highly recommend.

Peaceful retreat in the woods

I booked this house for a three day stay while participating in a trail riding event in the Wolverine area. Since we were away all day, our stay was limited to evenings only. It was neat and clean and worked well for our needs through the weekend.

Enjoyed the stay

My wife and I based out of the house for day trips in the Northern Lower (Cheboygan, Mackinaw Island, Petosky, Charlevoix, Boyne Falls). Good central location for that and the house and property were great for that.

Peaceful property

The property was located in an area which afforded us the opportunity to enjoy the sounds and sights of nature. The beds were comfortable and the property was clean. The kitchen, while a bit dated, was very functional and had everything we needed for our stay. Definitely a property we would stay at again.
