Our stay was pretty close to perfect. Everything was clean, and beautifully decorated. The wi-fi worked great, the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and we even had a friendly little cat visit us outside regularly. It was a little smaller than expected, but not a huge deal. The water pressure in the shower needs to be addressed, as it is pretty low. The walk to the river is a little longer than expected as well, but the walk was nice, as the area is beautiful. Overall, it was a great place, and we enjoyed our stay.

This was a great stay! The cabin was Beautiful, clean and cozy! It had everything that made our stay feel right at home. Very close to town without having that “in town” feel. Other reviews mentioned it not being in the best neighborhood…I thought it was a cute neighborhood, no problem with neighbors or anything. Would definitely stay here again!

We were pleasantly surprised to find this gem, conveniently located between Burt Lake & Petoskey in Alanson, MI. The house has plenty of space for vehicles, even room for vehicles plus a trailered boat! * The house is super clean and modern, perfect for a small group or family. Sleeping was comfortable for 5 or 6 people; but really not more than 6 people since there are only 2 beds in 2 bedrooms. The couch was super comfy and pulls out to sleep 2 plus a very large comfy chair to match! * The kitchen is modern with every convenience needed, I felt like I was at home! * No firepit or nor grill outside, but plenty of parks in the area. After a long day out-and-about, we didn't even have the energy for campfire. It was nice to be in an air-conditioned comfortable house! *** Most Definitely recommend this house & owner! The owners were very welcoming with notes around the place to answer any questions upon our arrival, along with a book of details for things in the area.
