Wonderful place to stay. The home and property were beautiful and clean. Perfect spot to be away from the city atmosphere but close enough to go enjoy it if you want to.

This house has everything you need for your stay. Upon entering it was very clean. The kitchen is well equipped with high end appliances. Beds were very comfortable. Added benefits like hot tub, kayaks and fire pit made our stay even more enjoyable. The host Melissa was so quick to answer every question we had. She even made recommendations on things to do, places to go and restaurants in the area. Of all the VRBOs we have stayed in over the years we rate this as one of the best with 5 stars. Would certainly stay here again if we are in the area.

Will definitely book here again. Pictures are accurate and the house was the perfect size for three couples. Host was responsive and very flexible with check in time. We are boaters and was able to dock our boat easily.Great fishing right off the shore.

We can't begin to explain how wonderful our stay was. Initially it was the location as it was very near where our event was held. But then......the place was immaculate and adorable. The welcome greeting and treats were definitely a hit! Our host was so helpful and patient, even when I had a question which she had already answered. My adult children thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. The location was perfect and only a few minutes from town. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks for a great time.

Great stay! Quiet, clean, and stocked with everything you could need. Loved the location—super close to a great trail and an easy day trip to Petoskey and Mackinac Island while we were there.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay here. Our hosts made sure we had an open line of communication in case we needed anything, but everything there was as advertised and we had not one issue. The house was clean and welcoming, the view was amazing, the hot tub was clean and easy to use, and we could not have asked for a better experience.

Very cozy and clean. We stayed in the winter, so we couldn't utilize the river. The outdoor hot tub was amazing. We watched swans and ducks on the property. It was a very peaceful place to unwind. Melissa was amazing. Would definitely recommend.
