We had the very best time at this cabin! Rita was amazing to work with and everything from check in to check out was great! The house was plenty big enough for our entire family (13 of us!). The best parts were that there is a huge table that everyone can sit at, the best sectional that is huge and the crystal clear water is right out back. My mom doesn’t get around easily but because we were so close to the water she got to watch the kids play and sit out at a fire with us every night. We can’t wait to come back!

Problems were the gas grill was not usable. Rusted out on the inside. The place was not thoroughly cleaned. We found empty and full water bottles under furniture along with a lot of dust. Large gap at the bottom of the back screen door which let in mice. Could not keep the back door open once we found this out. On a positive note, Location was great. We rented the pontoon boat which was awesome. Fires every night was great.

Great place to stay!

We have stayed at this home before and love the convenience of getting to the snowmobile trails! While the Michigan weather was not in our favor this year we stilled had a great time with friends. The house is well maintained and has all of the amenities you need. Plenty of room and the bonus game room is great for the kids to hang out.
