Location was excellent for skiing with family at Boyne Mountain
I needed a new rental quickly because of a power outage at another rental where I’ve traveled to regularly over the years. Lindsay made it so easy to book quickly so I didn’t have to cancel my fishing trip to northern Michigan. The place was immaculate and had everything I needed. Communication was top notch.
