The property was nice, however dish I went to use I had to wash beforehand. Everything seem to have a residue on it. Not a big problem but just something to note. The host was easy to communicate with and I had a great stay.

We enjoyed the quaint A-frame space. We had a very adventurous weekend and didn't get to spend as much time as we would have liked at the Vrbo, but the time we did have we enjoyed thoroughly.

Honestly it was a great place to stay while salmon fishing, the futon and bed were comfortable. It is a small space, but the price is fair for what you get. Being 6'5", the shower was a little cramped for me but it had all the hot water you needed so there is nothing to complain about! No WiFi, but that was a great excuse to ignore work.

Cozy up north stay

We had a great time! The cabin is cozy and the trails near by are wonderful. The cabin has everything we would have needed, towels, microwave and stove/ oven, Keurig, coffee maker, utensils and cookware, tv and DVD player. We stayed 3 nights and only left for the trails. Will definitely come back.

Cool little cabin!

Cabin was small but very cool set up. Great use of space. Very well kept up and clean. Large grocery store and gas within a mile of the cabin. Really enjoyed the stay. We stayed with my wife, myself, and our teen son and didn't really feel cramped. If you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a tiny house, definitely check it out!

Great location close to gas station, jerky store and fishing spots. Nice quiet neighborhood. Lot of nearby options for things to do. Enjoyed a 2 night fishing trip. Very nice cabin. Love the back porch/fire pit setup. We ended up grilling dinner every night. We were even able to watch the Michigan game at the cabin. The crystal clear night sky made for an amazing view of the stars that you can't see in the city. Awesome place, we definitely plan on coming back. Thank you!
