Our stay at Kingfisher Cabin was great! The cabin itself was clean and comfortable, and the Wi-Fi worked well. It was a bit surprising to see the river so low – I remember seeing the news about the Midland flooding a few years ago and didn't realize the extent of the impact. While the riverbed being exposed was unexpected, the view was still nice, and we really enjoyed watching the local wildlife. The bedrooms were a little chilly, but it wasn't a big issue. The location was fantastic, with easy access to Midland and lots of other great places to explore in the area. We would definitely stay here again!
We came to attend a wedding. We are a nature-loving, birding family. We loved the location. Close to our event and also to bay city state park. Loved it. Clean. Perfect.
Very clean and cute decor. Stayed for 2 nights as had a medical procedure at the hospital. Very easy access to freeway. Doug and Kim really take it to the next level with all the thoughtful extras. Very nice property!
Very nice and clean. Prompt responses from Kim and Doug. Everything was as advertised. We enjoyed our stay and would come to this property again. Thank you!
We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin has nice beds, towels, dishes. And if you have a pet it’s very peaceful. Its location is convenient, very close to the highway. The only thing we noticed was that the AC doesn't reach the far bedroom, but we picked up a fan and that worked pretty good. We also happened to be there on a very hot humid weekend. There are beautiful views from the kitchen and living room. The cleanliness is terrific very clean!
We were staying here visiting our son and celebrating our anniversary. This is a nice little cabin. It was extremely clean and several small touches that were very pleasing. The decor is very cute. We had everything we needed plus some. If you are staying in this area definitely check this listing out. You will not be disappointed.
Had some business in Midland and this place was perfect. Their attention to detail was impeccable, from large towels to lovely candles for a fireplace. Their place made our work like a little getaway.
