We found that the house and location to be wonderful. Just what we wanted. The house was particularly well-cleaned.

We took several short hikes on our trip but none better than the one out the backdoor!! The house had everything we needed for our stay. Check in and checkout were simple and fast. I hope we get the chance to stay here again!!

We are a family of 4 including kids age 1 and 5, looking to explore sleeping bear dunes for a week and visit some of the other surrounding area. The location is perfect for exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. It is completely secluded with no neighbors nearby (you can just faintly hear cars from the road). The house was exceptionally clean and could have accommodated an even larger family than ours. The master bedroom suite is a loft that is open to the downstairs, which worked well for us with kids going to bed before us. We tried hiking to the lake, and the huge property is beautiful for nature lovers. We did get lost briefly on the trail due to down trees in the path and overgrown brush, so we had to turn around. I called Tammy and she was very responsive about this and explained that the owners usually maintain the trail but this year was an exception. Still, it was beautiful walk and awesome to have the property to ourselves. Note for anyone with kids that this place is great but does not have any toys and no high chair or crib- so plan to bring your own stuff. Also know that unlike many cabins in the woods, there is no outdoor fire pit. Tammy was very responsive to all of our questions. For example, I couldn’t find the brush to clean the Weber charcoal grill, so I texted Tammy and she came over a few hours later to drop one off. Overall a very pleasant stay. We would definitely stay here again!
