Cozy Cottage Valentine’s Stay

Our stay was absolutely magical - sipping hot cocoa beside the crackling fire while nestled on the couch, surrounded by charming wooden interiors. Despite heavy snowfall, the convenient location made our trips to Boyne Mountain effortless. A perfect winter retreat!

Quiet Little Cabin

Definitely more a cabin than a house. Very cozy and homey. If you have a small family and don't mind it being a bit cold, this is a wonderful place to stay. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Relaxing Getaway

We enjoyed the little cabin in the woods. It was comfortable, clean, thoughtful hospitality, and lots of amenities. It was a perfect getaway that was 30- 45 minute drive from Gaylord, Boyne, and Mackinaw.

Close to expressway but out in the country!!!

Very nice stay here. 4 of us went up in a little bow hunting excursion. Slept us all comfortably, good heat, nice shower and very clean. It’s less then a mile to the pigeon river forest which is where we were headed. Very accommodating, we asked to switch our dates and thankfully it wasn’t an issue. Very pleasant hosts. We will be booking again next fall!

Cozy little house

We had a great time at this little rental. We were greeted with goodies and drinks and the house was very well stocked with all our needs. We would absolutely recommend this place. When my daughter and I left my granddaughter said “can we please come back here again”. She is 5.

Cozy Cottage as advertised

We definitely enjoyed our stay at this rental. The pictures showing the property are as advertised. Very comfortable bed and the kids enjoyed the bunk beds! The WiFi never had any issues. We spent a night by the firepit looking at syars. Cozy!

28th Anniversary with the family in northern Michigan.

Awesome little cottage! We were impressed by the warm hospitality and attention ention to detail. The accommodations was clean and tastefully decorated with an old school lodge feeling, providing a cozy and comfortable winter retreat throughout our stay as a matter of fact I ordered some flannel sheets like the ones we slept on there as soon as I got home! Vessnesa and Dave ensured we had everything we needed, and their prompt communication made the entire experience seamless. The location was fantastic, offering easy access to the main roads and northern Michigan attractions. Overall, we had a wonderful time I can't recall the last time my family sat at the same table for dinner and that made it worth everything! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable northern experience!

Up North Serenity!!

We had a great, relaxing stay!! We had hoped to see more elk than we did but it was all good!! The fall colors were starting to turn and pretty where we spotted them!! Only one downside we struggled with the Roku tv setup, probably because we're not that tech savvy!! Thank you Dave & Vanessa for letting us stay at your cabin!!

Nice and clean.Loved that there were drinks and snacks on our arrival. Nice clean towels and everything you need for your stay! Plenty of space to park a boat or whatever toys u bring. Boat Launch a few hundred yards down the road. The cabin is within 30ish minutes from Mackinac bridge, Petoskey and Indian river. Terrific central location! Would definitely recommend. Thank you to the hosts.😊

Cabin livin’

Loved the cabin. My wife and I and our two grandsons enjoyed our time together in the cabin. We used it while visiting family near by and we are already looking forward to our next stay. Everything we needed was provided by our hosts. The cabin is on a peaceful and quiet lot and offers plenty of things to do like a wood burning fire pit, gas grill and gas fire pit on the front porch. I highly recommend staying if you are looking for that cabin experience.

Summer stay

We ended up having 5 ppl stay. 2 couples and my 15 year old nephew. The house was very clean and well stocked. The host is very responsive and the check in instructions were very clear and easy. The 2 driveways accommodated 2 trucks with large trailers and side by sides. We drove to the trails from the house. The beds were very comfortable, definitely some of the best we’ve slept on in a rental. I would rent again!

Great get away place!

We enjoyed our stay at this cozy cottage. It was very cozy…had everything we could possible need. From kitchen pots and pans to bedding and enough towels. It was very clean. Only problem was the bathroom……shower was a little small and was a little small to be able to fix our hair and do make up. I would recommend maybe mirrors in the bedroom. But other than that it was awesome! Thank you for a great time at your Cozt Cottage!

Very Nice Stay

The cottage was exactly as advertised. It had everything we needed except food. The available snacks were a nice welcome! Lost of clean fluffy towels and beds comfortable. The only drawback was the camera inside the cottage. It just felt strange even though is was not on. Maybe relocating it to the sun porch would be better. Definitely would recommend to others.
