2nd Honeymoon Week

My husband and I stayed here for a week while our children (ages 8 & 11) went to camp nearby. Pam and Fritz are amazing, wonderful, and thoughtful hosts! The apartment is nothing fancy, but had everything we needed to make our week fabulous. We have not been 'kid free' in 11 years so this was like a 2nd Honeymoon week for us.Vanderbilt is centrally located in northern MI and we were able to take day trips each day to explore a new town. Pam invited us to play Bingo on Wednesday night and it was a hoot. I highly recommend staying here whether you are a couple or a family, there were enough beds to sleep 5 comfortably. The place was quiet which allowed us to get a good nights rest. Thank you Pam & Fritz! We will be back :)

The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and cozy. Apartment has everything you could need and even had snacks left out for us! Outside property is great, corn hole and firepit available for guest use. Location is perfect to go to nearby attractions (we went to Mackinaw Island, which was a 45 min drive). Most importantly, I felt very safe at the property, which was important as I am a single parent with 3 kids. Hosts were great, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond. Would highly recommend this apartment and would most definitely stay again if in the area.

Mini Vacay in the Woods

10 miles North of Gaylord, perfect location. Fully furnished apartment above the pole barn. Full use of the yard, picnic area and fire pit. Apartment had anything that you'd need, just pack your tooth brush. Apartment was clean, cozy, and comfortable. I highly recommend staying here. Golf Course and a Rail Trail for walking or bike riding, less than a mile down the road. Will stay again when in the area! Pam & Fritz have such a beautiful home, and are wonderful hosts.

Well appointed and spacious

This was by far the best stocked and thought out VRBO we have stayed at. Extremely clean, everything we needed and then some. Even had snacks on our arrival. There is a queen bed and three twins in the bedroom which provided ample room and comfortable sleeping arrangements for our family. A dishwasher, washer and dryer, toaster, can opener.... all of the things others seem to be lacking... were all present! Very peaceful and beautiful property that was an easy jumping off point for Sleeping Bear Dunes, Petoskey, Charlevoix, Macinac, and Lake Michigan. We really enjoyed looking for stones at the beach. Pam ensured we were comfortable and even had games for the kiddos. Fritz set up a corn hole toss that our family thoroughly enjoyed. We didn't get to use the fire pit as we had hoped, but it was ready to go with kindling, firewood and matches nearby. Sheltered picnic area and tabletop grill were also provided. We would highly recommend their VRBO. Also, if you are using Google to navigate, it stops just short of their road. Go to the next dirt road on your left and it's the first house on the left. Signs point you to a nice shaded parking area just to the left of the cottage.
