Loved our Walloon stay!

This Walloon cottage was perfect for our family and our dog! Great location in Walloon - easy walk to everything in Walloon Village. Loved the hot tub and the fenced yard. Well set up as rental - had everything we needed - even beach towels and a s’more kit for the fire pit.

Great cottage

We went for a quick weekend getaway to break up the winter doldrums! Great cottage in a wonderful location. We did a couple of activities at Boyne Highlands and hit a couple wineries. We had a beautiful walk downtown and around Walloon Lake. The cottage has a large yard that would be awesome in the summer! Would definitely stay again! We had everything we needed for a terrific stay!

Cozy space

We stayed here a few nights to go skiing at Boyne and it did not disappoint! The space was cozy and inviting and we loved that firewood was provided! Only 10 minutes from Boyne, it was the perfect place to come back to, soak in the hot tub, and relax by the fire. Our pups also loved the spacious, fenced in back yard to run and play!

End of Summer Family Vacation

Larissa & Adam were excellent hosts! Their communication and ease of check-in and check-out were top notch. The rental was extremely clean and we appreciated all of the ammenities provided (start-up for cleaning/paper products, well stocked kitchen utensils and cookware, clean bathroom!). Larissa checked in upon arrival as well as throughout our stay to ensure we were well taken care of. This cottage is located just a short walk to downtown Walloon Lake. It was a very easy walk to the public beach and park (even with two littles under the age of 5). The location is also excellent for easy access to major grocery stores and plenty of restaurants. We had a wonderful stay!

Weekend Get Away - August 25-28

We wanted to get in a long weekend in northern Michigan as summer was winding down and we had a great time in the village of Walloon Lake. The cottage had all the comforts of home and more. Larissa checked in to make sure we settled in ok and was available with any questions we had. Loved our time there! The Mielens

Checked all the boxes

This little cottage was perfect for us. We were able to bring our dogs and have the freedom to let them roam around in the fenced in yard. The home is walking distance to the few shops/restaurants that Walloon has to offer. The hot tub was perfect for the chilly nights we had and gave us something extra to do with our downtime. It was also so nice to have such a quick drive to both boyne city and petoskey. Highly highly recommend this stay. The hosts were so helpful, communicative, and left a sweet welcome letter upon our arrival. We have definitely added this to our “must revisit” list.

Cozy cottage

Overall our stay in Walloon was great. This house, while cute, was not worth the price gauge that we faced. There was a list about 10 deep of issues we faced in 3 short days. Pictures are definitely not as they seem. Outdoors are not well kept, jacuzzi and lights were dilapidated at best, we weren’t informed of a few non working things before arrival. While the owner did their best to accommodate during their busy weekend it still did not live up to the cost. Sadly, they were unwilling to compensate for any of the inconvenience we faced. This home should be valued as an extended stay hotel especially given the one tiny bathroom. If you have more than 2 kids good luck.
