This place is tucked away off the main road right on the Little Bay de Noc. We had everything we needed right down to firewood for the firepit. Stacy, the host is a sweetheart ❤ if we ever are in that area we would definitely stay again.

Relaxing Weekend Getaway

We had a great weekend getaway! Stacy made everything super quick and easy. This was our first time renting a place instead of using hotels. I have to say we will definitely being doing this again. The cottage was so cozy, we had a nice fire and played a few games that were in the cottage. We went to see the Mackinaw bridge, and some waterfalls around the area during the day. I couldn't have asked for anything else!

Great Host at Simple Pleasure

Stacy, our Host was very upfront about a change that had occurred to the property due to an unseen event of having a Septic put in. She was very good at communicating this to us. The property outside had been disrupted but had been finished as good as it could be. The cottage was extremely clean with everything we needed. Enjoyed our visit and really appreciated our host, Stacy!!! Giving her 5 STARS!!!!!

Everything was excellent!!! I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a family vacation or like me on a work trip. Stayed 3 nights and would have loved to stay longer and not have to leave for work. Stacy was great to deal with. Bird watching paradise. Everything you need is there , just bring your food , and cook it on the charcoal, the gas grill or the oven. Had firewood there, kayaks, canoe and a couple paddle boats. Great stay!!
