Perfect chill Cabby getaway

We had such a delightful time at this cabin just a couple of minutes from the slopes at Caberfae for closing weekend. The cabin had everything we needed to cook and cozy up for the week. We were also only 30ish mins from crystal for the weekdays. The beds were super comfy and we had a wonderful time. Dory was super fair and a great communicator throughout our stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Coziest cabin and so close to the slopes

Loved this cabin! The host was super responsive and so helpful! Plenty of firewood provided and loved the wood burning stove. Lots of room for all your things. And the upstairs bedrooms are so cozy. Literally two turns away from Caberfae.

Ski Trip!

Convenient to Caberfae Peaks resort, staying here meant we could have plenty of space, a kitchen and table, etc. for the whole family instead of staying in a hotel. We were able to ski together, cook together, and spend a wonderful couple days together overall. Hopefully, we’ll be back next winter for more of the same! We definitely appreciated the plowed driveway, btw.; Cadillac area had a ton of snow on the ground when we visited.

Cozy cabin for northern ATV ride

I stayed at this cabin/home with 2 friends for 2 nights during a recent ATV ride in the area. We were able to unload our ATVs in the yard and drive to the trails. It was perfect for getting back and relaxing after a long day of riding. As its description says on the listing, it offered all the comforts of home. I will look to book here again next time I'm in the area.

Great weekend getaway

The cabin is very cozy, nicely appointed, and has a super comfortable and homey feel. We enjoyed family conversations on the deck and at the fire pit. Dory has done a superb job with decorations and furniture. It is the perfect place for a relaxing family getaway with plenty of outdoor activities nearby.

Wonderful Ski Cabin

We had a fantastic stay at Dory's lovely Cabin while we skied at nearby Caberfae (10min walk!). Communication with Dory was excellent, check-in was very smooth, and the cabin was perfect! Clean, warm, well laid out and the beds were really comfy. Dory was flexible with us on our check-out time, which we really appreciated, and we had a fantastic stay. We will definitely be back and recommend this cabin to anyone!

Excellent communication without being overwhelming. The birdseed for the feeder was an unexpected touch. I would happily stay here again.
