My family of four had a wonderful time at this property! It is conveniently close to both Boyne Mountain and downtown Boyne City. The home itself was comfortable and clean. There was ample room for the four of us. We enjoyed the wooded setting. Highly recommend! We hope to stay here again in the future.

This is an adorable little house that appears bigger than you would think. The 9 of us (6 adults and 3 teenage children). Great use/design of space for square footage. Darling atmosphere, almost felt like an "Alice in Wonderland" theme. One room felt like a Madhatter type theme. Granddaughters absolutely loved. Communication with the property management before - and easy communication with the property manager once on site was flawless. Very happy with the experience!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful review. We’re thrilled to hear you were very happy with the experience and that the home worked so well for your group of 9. It’s great to know the layout made such good use of the space and felt larger than expected. We’re especially happy to hear the charming atmosphere and unique design details made the stay memorable for your granddaughters. The “Alice in Wonderland” and Mad Hatter feel sounds like such a fun way to describe the character of the home. We also truly appreciate your kind words about the communication before arrival and once on site. Our goal is to make the process easy, clear, and stress-free from start to finish, so it means a lot to know that was your experience. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us. We’d be happy to welcome you and your family back anytime.

This was a fantastic house to stay at in Northern Michigan. It was clean and well kept, had all the little things you don't think of that were available for use. Things like pans and cooking utensils were there and available. They were clean and in good condition. Comfortable home and a nice wooded setting. Plenty of sleeping (we had 5) with enough room to not step on each other. Overall this was an excellent place to stay.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this wonderful feedback. It is great to hear that you had such a fantastic stay at the house in Northern Michigan and that it worked so well for your group of five. We are especially glad you found the home clean, well kept, and comfortable. A spotless, well-maintained space is one of the most important parts of a successful vacation, and it is rewarding to know the house met your expectations from the moment you arrived. Your comments about the property being an “excellent place to stay” truly mean a lot. Thank you as well for highlighting all of the “little things” that were provided, especially in the kitchen. Having clean, good-condition pans, cooking utensils, and essentials on hand makes it so much easier to cook meals, gather around the table, and feel at home instead of feeling like you are missing key items. We are glad those details helped your stay feel easy and stress-free. The wooded setting and overall layout sound like they were a great fit, too. A peaceful Northern Michigan backdrop combined with plenty of sleeping space and room to spread out is exactly what many guests are looking for. It is nice to hear that even with five people, you had enough room to move around comfortably without feeling like you were on top of each other. Thank you again for sharing your experience and for recommending the home so highly. We are delighted that your time here was so positive, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another Northern Michigan getaway in the future.
