We stayed for my daughter’s wedding and it was perfect! Hosts were readily available if needed. They had lots of little treats and anything you needed at the house. Scenery was beautiful. I only wish we had more time to enjoy the views

Everything was very clean and neat. There are two properties so we got confused initially. But owners were responsive and helpful.

The Pere Marquette State trail is a nice trail to ride either way. We have two reverse recumbant trikes that require some set up and the garage made it so much nicer to leave them ready for riding all weekend. It's too bad the bridge over the river on Harrison Avenue South of Ludington Drive is not there. It would be easier than the 1500 feet to Bever Avenue to get to the trail. The water by the screened in porch was a nice relaxing feature. The Deerfield Nature Preserve by Mt. Morris was very nice to hike along the river. very quiet.

This property is very beautiful and smells as amazing as it looks. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again! The driveway was a bit hard to find at night but with the pink trashcan being at the road, we never missed it so that was very helpful! The river in the back and the yard is beautiful. We were able to watch the deer drink from the river each morning! Check in and check out are very simple and the host provided every amenity possible (Paper towel, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, snacks, doggy treats, air mattress, lots of extra blankets and pillows). And the gas fireplace is so cozy. I can't say enough good things. Thank you to the host for allowing us to book! We will be back for a much longer stay very soon!! *Also very close to a Dollar General and grocery store in Clare, MI.

This cabin is spacious, clean and perfectly decorated. We were visiting for a family wedding and had 4 adults staying at this property. We had plenty of spaces to relax and the beds/baths were clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend this property!!!

Great place!

Overall we really enjoyed our stay! The house was nicely decorated and the owners arranged things thoughtfully.Unfortunately the weather was hot and it rained a ton but that’s the one thing you can’t plan for. Haha The AC unit was having a difficult time keeping the inside of the house comfortable but again, that’s because it was so hot outside.

Nice place

Beautiful decor! The keypad on the front door wouldn't lock and the only doors that locked was the sliders. Nice coffee bar but only enough coffee for one pot😭 the toilet seat for the primary bathroom was broken. We would have liked more big bowls and a hand mixer for making mashed potatoes.

Amazing house!

We very much enjoyed our stay. Myself and family needed a place to stay to visit our grandma in the nursing home. They were great with us, made sure we would be comfortable. Even got us an extra air mattress since we needed extra space for our big family. The pictures dont do this property justice! The house is gorgeous and theres plenty of room for everyone. Never had one issue our entire stay. Great place for your family! Would recommend and stay again if needed.
