Very good

Great location for color tour and other local attractions property is great for 4 to 6 people, very comfortable, clean and as advertised in all respects
The property was in the woods, with a nice fire pit and free wood. There was access to 3 pools and a golf course, we never used any of that though. Good location. Air conditioning upstairs was loud. No air in the bedrooms, only main living quarters. Plenty of kitchen appliances and pots and pans. Overall would recommend for the price.
We came up-north to go to the Cherry Festival, Sand Dunes, and Torch Lake. The house was perfect. It was centrally located and just perfect. We had bonfires at night and did game night at the kitchen table. There were extra towels in the bathroom and our dog was allowed, that is a bonus for me.
Great house, reasonably priced close to Torch Lake. House was a bit smaller than pictures made it look, but overall it worked great for our group of 7. Clean, cabinets well stocked with dishes and cookware. Charcoal grill on deck, fire ring. Beautiful atmosphere tucked in the woods.
Convenient location near the ski hill and just a few minutes from downtown. Host was very responsive when additional requests were made for towels. All the basics were available in the house and kitchen, but will need to bring additional items above the basics you might want (storage containers, bags, tin foil, etc.). Good stay overall! There is a real wood fireplace with wood provided, but it does leave the house a bit smoky smelling. Enjoyed our stay and would return.
Overall the property was good. The only problems were the dog hair should have been vacuumed off of the comforter in the master bedroom. The pillow cases in the master had makup smudged on them and the cable box in the master had an error code an inoperative. Had a firestick with us so TV wasn't an issue. Other than 5hat we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again. I know it sounds like complaining but these things needed to be brought to your attention. Thank you all and again enjoyed ourselves
We had a great stay with our family. It had everything we needed and plenty of room. We would definitely stay here again when boating on the chain of lakes. Thank you!
Great accommodations and easy access to golfing. There were 3 of us so it was a very good fit with the 3 bedrooms. Only suggestion to host is it would be nice to have a leaf blower available to clear off front porch and rear deck. Will stay here again.
The house was perfect for our weekend in Bellaire. We had six adults, 3 couples in 3 bedrooms. The weekend was very hot but the house was cool and comfortable.
Great location for visiting local towns- Bellaire, Alden, Traverse City. Nice trail to walk up to the top of the ski hill- beautiful view! Enjoyed our stay.
Very nice place. Easy pool access. Comfortable beds and furniture. Staying here again in August and looking forward to it. I just wish it came with the private beach access.
My family and I were searching for getaways near Ohio and stumbled across this cabin. It was perfect in everyway. Had everything we needed if we wanted to stay in and was within around an hour to everything we wanted to see in Northern Michigan. Property management was very on top of things and answered all of our questions quickly to ensure we had a worry-free stay.
The property had plenty of room for our family. We enjoyed the area of the home and the pool area is excellent. The property itself could use a little spiffing up outside, the entrance was full off cobwebs and old dried up leaves. There was a big branch on the roof that hung over the entrance that was a little concerning. The upstairs air conditioner did not work well and made a loud weird noise, however the lower level one worked very well. We wished that there would have been information left about area dining, stores and activities. Overall our stay was pretty great and we had a nice time. Thank you!

Served our purpose
Pros: reasonably priced, good location for day trips to other areas of Michigan, private and quiet, pool was fine however not sure if it was heated, timely return of deposit.
Cons: carpet very dirty and heavily stained, coffee pot required pre filled packets like at hotels and only provided with 2, 2nd coffee pot dirty and likely not safe to use, however did not try, spiral staircase could pose a hazard for older guests or children, hot water heater is not sufficient for back to back showers.
I wish there would have been instructions to show the tv in the bedroom. None of us could figure out how to use it. Otherwise, it was a great place, nice and clean and we felt at home. Thanks again.
The only complaint I have is the upstairs shower, if you are a child or a small size adult (and I mean small size)then the shower is ok but it was definitely not made to fit an average size adult. Everything else was great , all appliances worked great and the kitchen was stocked well with all needed utensils and pots and pans. Communication was excellent when ever we had a question. Almost forgot the back patio light never worked, a electrician was sent out but couldn't fix the problem.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Heat wasn't adequate, no firewood, dirty pots, not clean
It was very disappointing. We arrived Friday evening and the heat was not adequate to heat the bottom floor. We kept our coats on. The listing stated wood was provided. The wood rack had one piece inside and none outside. The kitchen had cheap pots and pans. We tried to use the sauce pan and it was very scratched and crusted with food. There was a used tissue between the nightstand and bed in the first bedroom. Was it ever cleaned? It would have been nice to have local information, map of the area, matches, pot holders, garbage bags, ice in the ice trays, fire wood and mattress pads on the beds. And to top it all off--the pool had no water so we couldn't swim. Overall, terrible place to stay.

Disappointed
The photos of this rental made this place look amazing. Not the case when we arrived. Very dark inside the house. House is located among many trees. In the winter with snow on the ground and no leaves the house will have more sunlight.
The furniture was very warn that needs to be replaced and visible stains on the pillows.
The house needs deep cleaning, sticky floors, cobwebs and spiders everywhere. The deck off the back was nice but all the furniture was dirty.
The pans need to be replaced, Teflon coming off on every one.
The screen door on the doorwall needs to be fixed. There was a review from 2020 stating the same thing and hasn't been repaired.
We had enough towels for a couple of days. I called the property manager and they delivered enough for the rest of the week in a timely manner.
The TV situation was ridiculous. Passwords for the services should have been already on programmed. Didn't want to use my own passwords on someone else's system. Happy we had brought our own firestick so that we could watch tv.
The internet password provided in my email was incorrect. We found the password on the router.
Upstairs shower is very small 3x3 ft. Downstairs is full size shower and tub.
This house needs a list or a book to explain all the details of the house. Ex: how to use the heat, a/c, trash location, how to get more linens, internet and tv passwords, pool instructions, list of restaurants and things to do in the area.
We left one day early because we just couldn't take it any longer.
I hope this review helps the property owner to improve this rental. This rental has great potential but needs to be updated and cleaned.
We really enjoyed our time at this place. It had everything we wanted for a much needed kid free weekend. Great place to sit and relaxing watching football or Hallmark movies. Couches should be replaced soon. They are well used. Kitchen and table work for our needs. Enjoyed lots for games and food. House was clean although it really needs a deep clean with washing curtains and such. Only issue was really our fault. We ran a hair dryer and a heater at the same time. Bad idea we lost power in some of the house for a little time. Fire place was great for the first weekend of snow. We would stay here again.
