We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! The property was clean and very comfortable throughout. We especially loved spending evenings by the fireplace on the back deck. Beautiful location and a great getaway, we'd definitely come back!

This is our second time staying here, because we loved it so much the first time! All the things I said in my other review still hold true... clean, open, well maintained, beautiful view, extremely responsive and kind owners. Highly recommend! Also it is perfectly located near Harbor Springs (downtown), Bay View, Petoskey and Boyne.

Charming and comfortable

We absolutely loved our stay! This lakefront cabin easily accomidated our family, which included adults and teens. We were about 10 minutes from the slopes, and even less to stores, which made it super convenient. The kitchen is one of the most well-appointed we've ever stayed in. Overall, we found this house to be comfortable, efficient, convenient, and charming. Hopefully we will be able to stay here again in the future.

Absolutely incredible - great cabin!

I rent cabins / lake houses at least once a year in the area and this was by far the cleanest / nicest cabin yet. Pictures are accurate…it is as nice as it appears. And there is a working fireplace which is fantastic for winter weekend trips like ours. There are two queen beds on the main level (one has an incredible view opening up to the lake with its own doorway out to the patio. Upstairs would be great for a bunch of kids…there’s an area to hang out, play games and watch tv and then the bedroom is a kids’ paradise with a bunch of twin beds and a ladder up to a loft style bed where a bunch of kids could sleep. AND for people who enjoy a really nice big kitchen! All fabulous. And maybe it is trauma memories from some of my previous rentals but I cannot say enough about how clean and ‘new’ everything was. The only ‘downside’ is that you can’t really walk anywhere from the cabin because it is on a sort of main road (but you wouldn’t know it when you are inside)…and I’m a walker so that is my only ‘too bad’ about it. But honestly I highly recommend it. So centrally located too…close to harbor springs, Petoskey state park, Petoskey, Boyne. Etc. we will be back! the corner of w
