• Cozy Cottage Getaway

  5/5

  This was an annual anniversary vacation which because of an injury we would be staying inside more than out and that includes watching movies and get a lot of reading. My fault i never thought that because no TV was mentioned that it wouldnt have one but no tv. A laptop is available but its such a small screen so we used a desktop monitor hooked up to laptop so it worked out. The cottage is well appointed and is dog friendly, the kitchen is beautiful. The cottage does have a musty smell so the scented candles help. The bed was a log framed bed which was beautiful but difficult to get out of. The hosts were so wonderful, truly caring hosts. This is a wonderful cottage perfect for a quiet getaway.

• Cute cabin…full of charm!

  5/5

  This cabin was just what we needed for a week away from the hustle and bustle of home. The owners have thought of everything needed for a restful retreat. The location is perfect for day trips to the UP, State Parks, and surrounding areas. There are so many unique gems in the area as well when venturing out and about. Highly recommend!

• Decent Home, Musty, HIGH FEES

  3/5

  This "old cabin-like" home is conveniently located on the Tunnel of Trees. Arrival and entering the home proved easy. The cabin has all the necessary items for a stay including books and good Internet. Pet friendly, the cabin has a good yard for small dogs. Some might consider the cabin quaint. There are scented candles provided. You will need the candles.

  Having owned many old homes, it's easy to see the home simply has a lot of deferred maintenance. Its best years are well behind it. The smell is overwhelming and musty; the odor never left during our stay but did diminish with candles and open windows. We tried to use the split unit for air upon arrival but it never worked. With moderate effort, we were able to open windows. With windows open, lots of noises enter the home, but at night the noises abate.

  With all the deferred maintenance, you can easily tell this cabin is for one thing and one thing only, generating revenue. The additional fees on a 3-night stay calculated to a whopping 36%, several hundred dollars. This fee includes a night mandatory damage fee. The fee structure does NOT include taxes.

  VRBO seems to be the middle man for money only. There are no instructions from VRBO on how to enter the home. The application simply says the owner will contact you. The owner did provide directions, but they should be available through the application on your phone.

  Don't recommend.

• Great Getaway on the Tunnel of Trees

  5/5

  This property is perfect for enjoying the nature of upper Michigan. Located right on the Tunnel of Trees, a historic highway with a ton of history, you have the option to explore south to Harbor Springs or go north towards the Mackinaw bridge and the upper peninsula. It’s a peaceful place with beach access, and great for bird watching. The kitchen is incredible and well appointed. Great communication with the owners. Great place!
