AS ADVERTISED-(and even more beautiful)

We stayed here for three nights and traveled to a family reunion in Three Rivers daily. The cabin was a welcome refuge after long days of visiting in the heat. Only five adults stayed in the cabin, but it could accommodate 12 or more I would imagine. We have a lot of experience staying in VRBO‘s, in this one was well appointed throughout. Very well decorated, one of the best ever. It was super quiet, we didn’t even lock the car on nights two and three because it was so secluded and secure. If the reunion is in the same location next year, we might rent this cabin for three families instead of just our own.

Very nice and very understanding

It was supposed to be a gathering of siblings and spouses each traveling from a couple hours away. A getaway for seven turned into a fun weekend for four. One missed because of illness. Two missed because of a family death the day we were supposed to stay. Owners were very sympathetic and understanding of the situation. The four who stayed had a good time and we hope to book again for a more complete siblings weekend.

Another amazing weekend in Centreville Michigan!

This was our 3rd straight Fourth of July Holiday at this amazing cabin on the Prairie River. Our whole family had a wonderfully relaxing weekend playing in the river, sitting on the hugh deck, and sitting around a camp fire in the evenings. John was very accommodating and willing to change our dates for us. We will be back!

We were all very pleased with the property. The house was very accommodating for 5 adults! We enjoyed the deck and the porch for relaxing, the dining room table for eating and playing games, the kitchen for meal prep and coffee and the bedrooms for comfy sleeping. The home was clean and well stocked right down to shampoo and soap. We would highly recommend this property!

Riverside cabin

Quiet, relaxing cabin with wildlife all around. We felt safe. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony overlooking the water, sitting on the front porch, and around the fire pit. Abundance of birds, rabbits, deer, and many other animals for us to watch. All this, yet near restaurants, stores, and community activities. The property was exceptionally clean and had all the amenities that met our needs.

Highly Recommend!

It's the end of my husband's "Birthday Month," so I really wanted to surprise him with a quiet place where we could just chill from our busy schedules. This was the place! It was only the two of us, so we had tons of extra space that we never used. The property was well taken care of and very comfortable. It's the first time that we've been away for 4 or 5 days that my hubby didn't say he was ready to go home. In fact, he told me that he wished I would have booked it for a few more days. Loved the deer and other wildlife we saw while there. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. We definitely recommend staying here and we would certainly stay here again if we are ever in the area.
