Amazing northern Michigan getaway
This house was fantastic. It slept all 16 of us comfortably and we didn’t have to fight for beds. The game room was a game changer and allowed us to have fun without having to go outside in the winter. The house was so well stocked with absolutely everything you could possibly need. The house is close to Boyne mountain and Mancelona so we had plenty to do up north. Scott, our host, was amazing as well as he was very responsive to our needs and he was very polite when communicating with us. Excellent rental!!!

Great Family Weekend
I really wasn't sure what to expect but was very happy with everything! It was perfect for our family and everyone had a great time, from the youngest @ 1yo to my husband and I @ 58yo. There was something for everyone! The game room was used all day long and lots of basketball was played in the driveway! The firepit was the perfect way to end the day. The whole family sat around the bonfire, ate s'mores, talked, and laughed a lot. We will always remember this wonderful weekend! Scott was a great host!! He sent messages checking on everything and when there was a potential issue he called immediately. Thank goodness it was all okay but I knew by Scott's actions that we had nothing to worry about. I highly recommend staying at this house and with Scott as the host you can't go wrong!!
