Clean and comfortable

Only two areas of concern: Master bath shower needs a new shower head. In the book of directions to guests was a book with disturbing remarks. A person’s name and prostitute, other people with inappropriate details.

Perfect for our family!

Our experience was great! We’ve been vacationing in the area for over a decade and needed space for our family, which now includes significant others. The house is well kept and offers a good amount of space. Easy to get to wonderful location, and nice amenities. Will stay again!

Great red cottage!

Definitely enjoyed our week in Walloon. The property was clean and one of the best stocked kitchens I’ve ever rented. And the knives were the best! I love to cook so knives are important.

Clean, comfortable and great location for day trips

We chose this location so we could take day trips to explore Michigan. The house was very clean, comfortable and relaxing. We texted the owner with a question and he answered right away. There is a small grocery store and restaurant a short walk away which was a great convenience.

Perfect stay

The house was super clean, dog friendly, and had plenty of space for our family to spread out. It was a great location between Boyne Mountain and Nubs Nob. We had everything we needed to cook & eat and were well stocked with paper goods and bath towels & bedding. The property owner was very responsive up front and to follow up after check out. Perfect little rental for the weekend. We would certainly recommend and definitely stay again!

Great Place with lots of room

This is great home with lots of room. We brought our 10 month old Bernese Mountain Dog who also would give the property 5 paws ;) We have stayed many times in this area over the years for a long weekends (although I usually book through that other vacation rental site, lol) and this has been the best place so far. The home is located on the main road through Walloon Lake right next to the hotel/lake and post office. The Christmas lights were still up outside the hotel, which I enjoyed looking at when it was dark at night from the living room window. The house is a half hour or less drive to Boyne, Nubs Nob and The Highlands ski areas. Petoskey is close by, and the Wal-mart & Meijer are on the side town closest to this house. There were plenty of towels, washcloths and extra blankets in the house. While I didn't do much cooking while there, the kitchen seemed to be well stocked with all sorts of items one might need to cook with. The kitchen table seats 8 people, which I noted as it seems most tables at rentals are non existent or small. Wi-fi worked great. The home was very clean, and while our puppy was very interested in all the new smells, I didn't have to worry she would find things to eat that she shouldn't. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Golf Get Away!

We had golf plans in Vanderbilt MI at Black Bear. We opted to look for a VRBO instead of a hotel in Gaylord. This was perfect since none of us had been to Walloon Lake. You could walk to dinner and drinks. The place has 2 full baths and for 2 couples that was ideal!

Great Location. Easy Access To Other Northern MI Locations

Property was exactly as advertised. The inside was well decorated and had a spacious feel due to the Great Room. Nice large flat screen TV and new refrigerator. The owner is currently making other improvements, including a first floor laundry and bedroom upgrades. His willingness to accommodate pets is a plus. We plan to return at a later date with our daughter and her dog. The quiet town and scenic lake make this a winner.
