Wonderful Place to Stay

We had a wonderful experience at this vrbo. Excellent, private location, quiet, clean, and plenty of room. We had four people in our group and we had plenty of space to spread out. If you’re looking for a place to stay I highly recommend this home.

4th of July weekend

The absolute best. During our stay, never saw a vehicle driving past the house, nestled on a beautiful lot with dense trees in the back yard. Yet so close to town and Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. We biked to both on separate days. Tastefully decorated, clean and very comfortable. Easy to get access when we arrived and we were greeted with a nice note and homemade cookies. This is a home that has something to offer each season! Thank you for the wonderful experience!!

Great stay at Pictured Rocks Lodge

This place was ideal for our short trip to the Michigan Ice Fest. You can rent snowmobiles locally and ride right to the house. They have gas on-site to keep the snowmobiles running. There is a lot of room, and this place can easily sleep ten. I would stay here again. We had no problems during our stay,

Remote Paradise

We ( 7 guys ) rented this as a snowmobile vacation. Having never been to the UP or this town we were skeptical about the place. The house is amazing, clean, easy to find and perfectly located for snowmobiling. The heated garage was a nice surprise to thaw out your sled at night. The town was small, friendly, food was great no matter where we ate and the whole experience was outstanding. We would highly recommend this property and area for snowmobiling!

Great pictured rocks location

Just away from the business yet minutes from major sites. Loved the king bed in the master. We figured out the brand but could not figure out what model it is. Would really like to know. My wife and I both liked it, which is rare. House has everything you need.

Great choice!

This home had everything we needed and more for our 4 night stay. From toiletries, to cookware, to cleaning supplies and entertainment and more! More than enough blankets, sheets and towels. The home was clean. Furniture and beds were in great shape. I slept on the master bed. Firm but just what i needed. The bunks are in good shape. The patio furniture and grill was an added touch to this home. The garage is huge! The mosquitoes were pretty horrible around this time of year so my kids had a great time playing in the garage because of the size they were able to run laps around! All cookware was available from baking trays, to more than enough plates, bowl, and utensils. The washer is big and worked great. The location was secluded which is just what we needed to get away from city life. Dumpster on site was convenient since we went through so many meals with a 12 person party. Our favorite room in the house was the living room. Sofas were in great condition. With the dining table near the living room made the space open and comfortable for gatherings. John and Billie Jo were great hosts. Very quick to respond and explained everything as the house was. We can tell the owners take pride and care in their home. We will definitely stay here again if revisiting the area. Thank you for the memories!

Munsing trip

The house is at a very good location with close proximity to Munsing and many local trials and beaches. It is in a beautiful secluded setting with a great yard for a fire at night. Inside, the home is a bit dated, but everything was veey clean. We appreciated the number of beds and the stocked kitchen. We enjoyed our time and recommend it.

Exceeded our expectations

Very responsive and accomodating property owners in the months, weeks and days leading up to our stay. Check-in was a breeze. Marion is a sweetheart, we were welcomed with a nice note and some homemade cookies :) The property and home were far more than we expected, even though the description sounded like just what we were looking for...it was that and so much more! Quiet and secluded, yet conveniently located close to town, waterfalls, the beach...perfect! The kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, utensils, pantry items, etc. The whole house is absolutely lovely, clean and comfortable. We made ourselves at home very easily. Nice front porch for hanging out in the morning with our tea or coffee, enjoying the view, peace and quiet. Great back deck right off the livingroom equipped with a grill, table and chairs, perfect for eating outside in the evening after a day of exploring. A spacious backyard with a firepit and beautiful view of dense forest. Garage is huge and clean. I could go on and on; basically, our family is definitely making this our "Michigan Home", as my 3 year old granddaughter kept calling it (lol) whenever we visit the area. We will be booking it as soon as we can again for next year. We all said, this is the kind of place that makes you feel at home and you really enjoy being at instead of just being a place to eat and sleep in between adventures. We made lots of unforgettable memories there and look forward to more in the years to come!
