Bachelor Party Trip

The place was an excellent spot to stay, and was relatively close to all our other activities. Beds were comfortable, place was well stocked with most things you would need (but probably left at home).We had a great time.

Perfect Location & Spacious Living Space

The property is in the perfect location, about 10 minutes or less from everything we need and our vacation destination. The cabin was clean and very tidy. Everything was as described, and it exceeded expectations overall. The living area was very spacious, giving six of us plenty of space to do our own thing while still being able to spend time visiting with each other.

Perfect Location

My group of 5 ladies came to Manistee to run the North Country Trail Festival of races. We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was beautiful and 11 m and 11 mintes from the race. Also, plenty of fresh towels, bedding and kitchen implements.beautiful

Great Stay for Family Ski Week

My hubby and I, two kids, our teenaged niece and my mother loved our 6-night stay here for a ski week. The location was less than 30 minutes from Caberfae Peaks and Crystal Mountain, and also less than 30 minutes to Manistee for great restaurants. We had so much room to play games, cook, and relax. The elevator was really nice when we were bringing all of our gear in and out. The barndominium was also very clean and had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. Good communication with the owners on their lovely and quiet property. Thank you for a wonderful week of fun and memories!

Great time

Darren was very helpful if we needed anything. The area was very quiet and woodsy. The house was spotless and beautiful. The wifi was a little slow sometimes.

Nice Spot in the Woods.

My friends and I stayed here for a trip and the cabin had a ton of space. There was a nice teail behind it for an easy hike, and the cabin was a short drive to good hiking spots like Misty Acres and Arcadia. We were also close to some fishing spots and off-roading. The hosts also provided your basic stuff like towels, coffee, etc. Only downside was that we wish we stayed an extra day or two. Overall, we will stay here again if we plan another Michigan trip.
