Great beach at the log cabin

We loved the cabin -very clean-comfortable-well equipped- nice touches- and the beach was wide and gorgeous to the south for miles. Please let us know if you add AC and we will come back in the summer sometime. Thanks for sharing your log cabin !

Another Great Stay!

You will not be disappointed! Read the reviews - the best sunsets on Lake Michigan and such a fantastic house. We love the area and visit twice a year. Barb's house is just perfect for us, clean, well-appointed, and responsive. We look forward to our next stay. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, Comfy Cabin

My 3 siblings and their spouses and my wife and I, ages 60-77 came together to celebrate birthdays, our second year in a row. We love this place! Lots of room for big meals, time around the fire and long walks on the beach. It has everything we need for a late winter get-a-way! Thanks Barb for all the extra touches. We hope to be back again next year.

Wonderful family retreat on Lake Michigan

Our family of 6 adults and 2 dogs had a lovely 3 days at this spacious, cozy and comfortable retreat. Beautiful views, stargazing and sharing stories, songs and warm drinks in the ample living space. It was great that we had enough room for everyone to have their privacy for sleeping. The kitchen was well stocked, the decor eclectic and thoughtful, the flannel sheets and towels fluffy and new. Barb was an excellent host with good communication. We will certainly be back. Thank you!
