Super cozy little spot for a rustic getaway. Property manager was super friendly and communicative. Perfect distance to lake Michigan whilst being affordable.
It was nice having a place so close to the race track. Bed are comphy, nice and clean, air condition units, it was perfect for us. The kitchen table and couches need updating, other than that it was perfect.
My husband and I had a great time staying here while visiting the area. It was clean and we found the beds to be VERY comfortable! My only suggestion would be a more comfy couch upgrade. We would definitely stay here again!
The property was great! Very clean, had everything you need as far as dishes, cooking utensils, towels, sheets etc. Very quiet peaceful neighborhood, with a nice lake right down the road. Perfect spot for a family or a couples get away! Would definitely stay there again!
Went to see my srep son graduate high school. We very much enjoyed everything. Nice firepit. We had a small problem figuring out the television but the host was there within 30 minutes to fix it.
Everything was great, i would go again.
This little house was what we needed. A place to sleep. Location? Really depends on what you’re looking for. We were only in the house to sleep, otherwise we were out and about. If you’re a beach goer, you’ll have to travel. If you’re hunting or fishing, this is a good place. Just, DO NOT CLEAN FISH IN THE HOUSE!
Clean, well stocked, good host…we would be happy to use this place again.
The property was great! Very cozy! Had everything we needed for our weekend away from home. Check in was effortless, Communication with the owner was easy. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be visiting again!
Reasonable price, clean and quiet. A small town, rural setting it was all I needed for a weekend stay. Was an excellent location as home base for nearby adventure be it forest trail or beach. Tracy was a gracious and friendly host, quick to respond. Overall a positive VRBO experience.
Easy transaction with owner. Comfortable and clean cabin in a great location for kayaking the Pine River. Also try the Kozy Kitchen breakfast. Delicious!
Very comfortable updated cabin with fabulous host!
Everything we needed with extra towels and toilet paper. Shower worked well with great pressure. Air conditioner in bedroom and main area was great with the hot weather. Very nice 55 in tv with cable ( Traceys husband came out within minutes to get it working again after I hit some wrong buttons 😳). Priced right. Very cute!
Very cute cottage in a perfect location for our weekend plans between Traverse City and Manistee. Property was clean and well stocked. Nice kitchen and bath and comfy bed. Plenty of parking space for our camper that we were hauling to Traverse. Tracy was very accommodating and easy to work with. Quick responses to our questions. Thanks for the great stay!
If you're looking for a relaxing getaway, this is the place! Tracy was unbelievably accommodating and was quick to respond at a moments notice should we have needed anything. As a family of three, this was perfect! Clean, well stocked & plenty of firewood! Not to mention, the check-in process was smooth. Definitely will be back!
Stayed here for a week and really enjoyed it! Clean with all the necessary amenities. Fire pit is awesome.
