We enjoyed a lovely little getaway here in October for a fall color tour. It was a great location for travel to Mackinaw, Tahquamenon Falls, Whitefish Point, Pictured Rocks and so much more. We brought our dog, Buddy, with us too! He felt right at home and enjoyed laying on his dog bed watching the river.

We had a great time here! Cute and comfortable cabin! The river was calm and sitting on the back deck was wonderful. The boat ride to the connecting lakes was a little longer than expected, but still a lovely location and took nothing away from the cabin and the experience here.

We were skiing at Nubs Nob for the holiday weekend. The cottage was 15 minutes away so it worked out well. The communication with the property owners was great. We definitely would consider a return visit for sure!

We don’t have a whole lot different to add than the other reviews, and would 100% echo what they stated about the cleanliness, great communication, amenities and wonderful location of this cottage. We were in town for Petoskey’s Fresh Coast Classic soccer tourney, and had a great relaxing stay between games with our kids and dogs. The hosts made the stay effortless, and we really enjoyed the great fishing off the dock + very nice neighbors.

This cottage had everything we needed and more. Super comfy and clean! We appreciated the added little touches and felt totally at home. It was excactly what we needed for a quick family snowboarding trip and we'd love to come back to experience it in the summer months as well. Exceptional property!

This rental was perfect in every way for a get-away with my husband. Beautiful view of the river, comfy furniture, well-equipped kitchen, and adorable decor. It's a super short drive from dozens of interesting historical sites/towns/waterfront areas for exploring. We loved that it was pet-friendly, too - being able to bring our Peanut with us eliminated a lot of the stress we usually have on vacation.
