Perfect cozy stay

This was a perfect cozy place to spend a long weekend. The place was very clean and we had excellent communication with the owners. It was the “off season” for being near the lake, but it is very handy to get to the nearby dunes and beaches. We would stay here again.

Perfect for a winter weekend retreat

I wish we were back at this place sitting in front of the fire and going for walks. Terry was a great host and I’m hoping we can go back soon. I’m sure it would be even more wonderful in the summer in the screened in porch!

Sensational Sawyer Host

Fantastic amenities and top notch linens. The host made everything perfect for a relaxing weekend. The Warren State park with a beautiful beach and dunes are so close. The local restaurants have amazing menus of gourmet meals! Dog park down the road in Halbert, Swedish Bakery, Sawyer garden center and the host has it all detailed in her home care binder. It’s a really low key area with less traffic and Great restaurants. We highly recommend this home.

Fall Getaway

We loved our stay here. The neighborhood is quiet with friendly neighbors. The pine tress and wildlife are beautiful. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace one evening. The back porch is very nice and we always appreciate finding places where we can bring our dog. The Red Arrow Roadhouse has great food. Terry is a wonderful host.
