Great Place!

We had a wonderful time at the cabin! Cabin was great for a weekend getaway with friends, and the game room was definitely a hit! Kitchen is very well stocked which made it easy to cook at home, and the lake was gorgeous! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing weekend.

Phenomenal Rental

This property is THE perfect place for any group. We catered a wedding in Gladwin and rented this for me and my staff to stay. The owners have thought about everything. Just bring your clothes and food and you are good. We will be back for sure!

Wonderful property

My family and I stayed for a weekend. We didn’t get to enjoy all the amenities this property included (we were in town for a wedding) The pictures of this place don’t do it justice. It was absolutely beautiful. We would definitely love to stay again in the future, this time use it as a more relaxing experience instead of just a place to sleep.
