Great Property/Great Stay
Came up to the area for a weekend of golf at Forest Dunes. The home is beautiful. Everything was well appointed and thought out. Beds are very comfortable and fire pit area was awesome to sit by and enjoy a beverage and talk. The owners were great and made it very easy to work with. I highly recommend this property.

Great Home
I have stayed at a couple of the homes at the Uncommon Ranch, and they have all been great - this one being no exception! Would definitely recommend to family, friends, and anyone that would love a beautiful home nestled deep within the woods and nature.

Blissful Goodness
My 15 year old son and I wanted to enjoy the upper (lower) Michigan outdoors se located this rental and jumped in the car from Kansas City. We didn’t know what to expect when we arrived but the place completely blew our expectations out of the water. This beautiful and well kept cabin is nuzzled within trees and makes you feel complete and one with nature.
The supplied pictures are great but you must see this place for yours to truly appreciate it. The enclosed screened in porch was a great place to entertain. The full sized porch on the other side was a fantastic place to sit all day and watch for wildlife. There was so much for us to do in the area but we also loved just being in the cabin and on the property.
The beds are so very comfortable, neither one of us had trouble sleeping, our trouble was getting out of those fantastic beds. Oh, and the showers! Amazing simply amazing showers.
We had zero problems or issues while staying here. We will absolutely be back to stay again, I forever rate other locations against this one, by far the best experience my son and I have ever had.
