This place was perfect for us! Greg did an excellent job communicating with us. The place was very well stocked with everything we could possibly need. We were there to ski, but now we can’t wait to come back in the summer! It is right in Crooked Lake woh lots of summer amenities. We were with our two teenage boys, and we had plenty of room especially with all our ski gear. We’ll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Greg Fedirko

Host profile image
I moved to Petoskey in 2019. Within the first year of living here, I quickly discovered there are few places that are comparable to the lifestyle and beauty of northern Michigan. The lifestyle here cannot be described; only experienced.

As a result, I strive to coach visitors on how to enjoy a high-quality experience while having a comfortable stay.

In the summer, I enjoy spending time on my kayak, bike, or on the golf course. In the winter, I can be spotted on the ski slopes. Since I live in the area, I am easy to contact and usually available when needed.

If you do not already have an agenda, I encourage you to ask me for things to do in the area, and I will personally give you a list of many things to do geared towards your interests.

I hope to be your excellent host and that your experience has you wanting to come back.
