"We stayed for a mountain biking trip had a great experience location was perfect for riding to and from the highlands bike park"

"This house was perfect for our family trip. The house was meticulous, clean, well organized, and had everything we needed to make our family vacation a blast. It was on its own private beach on Lake Michigan, beautiful sunset and sunrises lots of wildlife to be seen and only 10 to 15 minutes away from the port to Mackinaw. We felt like we were staying at a friends house as the host was extremely considerate to his guests, having very nice soaps, shampoos, and even left us a festive table...

"My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this site. The view of Lake Huron was beautiful. The lake is RIGHT THERE! No steep steps required to get to the water. The house interior has a rustic homey vibe that we just loved. It reminded us of my parents' home. The house was very clean and comfortable. While we were there, we saw a large eagle in a nearby tree. It was visible from the front window. It was perched in a nearby tree for 20 minutes and then flew off. We also met the next-door...

"Clean, comfortable, cozy. The cabin feels like it’s at the end of the world, but it is easy to get to Petoskey and Mackinac Island. We had our two dogs with us and they loved investigating the yard, which is full of naturalized plantings and mown paths. The space was great for my husband and me, but I think it would be tight with any additional adults. This was a great getaway!"

"Overall we greatly enjoyed our time here. However, there were a few issues. First, the freezer melted our ice cream. Second, we were basically told "good luck" about using the oven, which would have been nice to know before we bought groceries. Third, the heat had already been turned off for the season and it was COLD at night. Thankfully some of the beds had heaters, which was great. The fireplace downstairs is just for looks/ambience. It provided no heat to the room when on. There were only 3...

"It was very good but the bathroom could be a bit bigger that was very tiny. We appreciated the grill and the kayaks. Our grandkids really enjoyed them. It was very peaceful and relaxing."

"Enjoyed the cottage. Right on a small bay looking into Lake Michigan/Straits of Mackinac"

"Host was easy to reach with any questions we had. Our family & dog were very relaxed & enjoyed the beautiful weather we had and even had a bonfire. The people in other cabins were very respectful we had children with us. Highly recommend!"

"Easy way to get in and out"

"So much better than staying in a local hotel! There is absolutely nothing bad to say about this place. Thank you for your hospitality!"

"Enjoyed everything"

"Great stay in a great little cabin close to everything! Awesome location close to mackinaw city, the island and Cheboygan but still felt like a trip away from everyone else without being in a hotel along with all the other weekenders."

"Modernized. Clean. Comfortable beds/furniture. Clarify ‘directions’. Name of road not on any street signs. Actually is the highway (add that info!). Drove by x 2 looking for crossroad; property drive RIGHT OFF (two line) highway. Much traffic noise, daytime. Good restaurant across street. Group of cabins on pretty inland lake. One property building is ‘fish cleaning house’, so must be good fishing, here. 🐟"

"Beautiful scenery, the lake in the morning, sunrise, sunset, tranquil."

"We love the decor and location. Many things to explore from dive bars to natural beauty. We shall return."

"The property was as described and cute, cozy, and clean. Walkable distance from town and the river. More sofa seating in the living room would have been appreciated but otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!"

"Perfect location as it was easy for us to get to the sites we wanted to see. We slept soundly and the cottage/home was equipped with everything we needed."

"A sweet, charming cottage on a beautiful lake. Perfect for enjoying cool fall evenings and lovely sunsets."

"We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was very cozy, clean & comfortable. Will return."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely consider staying here again should we take another trip to the area. Highly recommend."

"The property was very clean and well maintained. I think the only thing that I would have liked that wasn't provided was an internet connection."
