We absolutely loved it and we are so happy we stayed here. A beautiful private piece of property on the Betsie. The home had all the amenities and more. It did not disappoint in any way and we totally recommend staying here, we’ll be coming back next time we’re in the area.

Beautiful cabin home on the Betsie River. Very roomy with 5 bedrooms and the game room was a hit with everyone. Spent the weekend river fishing for steelhead and ice fishing- then games and cards at the cabin. The weather was beautiful and we were even able to enjoy an outdoor fire at the beautiful fire pit in the backyard.

Booked this for a family getaway for the holidays and we all loved it! There ended up being 17 of us (including children) and we had plenty of room for sleep and activities. We did not have snow but we’re still able to enjoy some amenities at Crystal Mtn nearby! My family members were already asking me to book this again for next year!! Highly recommend.

The property was everything that was listed and then some. Very convenient to surrounding area activities. The owners went out the way to make us feel welcome. My family is looking forward to coming back.

We do a fall trip up north every year with a group of 5 older couples. This house was perfect! Had both indoor and outdoor fires and the fall colors were amazing. House was clean, well-stocked with everything we needed for our stay plus more. A lot of extras we have not seen at other rentals and greatly appreciated. Plenty of room to spread out and we all loved the game room. Already booking for next year. You won’t be disappointed!
