We had a fabulous stay. The home was cozy, set in the country on a large wooded lot. It was a quick drive to sleeping bear dunes and close to Glenn Arbor. Gary was a responsive host and easy to communicate with. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to visit the area. Hope to stay here again.

We loved being 6 minutes form Esch Beach and Treat Farm Trail, two of our favorite places in the area. It was clean and quiet, with cozy cabin vibes. Someone did a lot of custom woodwork in this rental! It was nice to have a yard and trails behind the property to explore. The host was friendly and available via text for questions. Thanks, Gary! I hope we get to stay there again soon.

Wonderful vacation house

This house was perfect for enjoying Sleeping Bear lakeshore and surrounding area. We had all the activities close by and had the wooded, private property. We enjoyed biking, hiking, a Lake Michigan beach, and shopping small towns.

Great get-away location!

The house was very comfortable and well kept. Fantastic location. Just a short hop, skip, and a jump to some of the best beaches in the world. The walking trails on site are super, too. We could not have asked for more!

The home had all the amenities we needed to prepare meals. I especially appreciate the option for pour over coffee. The bathrooms were clean and could only be improved by adding a few more wash cloths. The bed linens were clean and comfortable, and it was nice to have different pillow options to suit individual preferences. The overall design of the home was beautiful and thoughtful. Gary, the property manager, shared that much of the interior wood came from the property which is pretty cool.

Fabulous Stay

This is a darling house. It has all the amenities needed for a great stay. It’s super close to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. Our family had a great time at the park, then come back to a wonderful place where they could spread out and rest from all the climbing. I would stay again in a heartbeat. Additionally, Gary the owner was very helpful and responsive. Excellent stay!

A delightful cabin

We came to visit the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. We brought bikes with us and enjoyed several wonderful days. The cabin is spacious, well-maintained and very comfortable for a family of 4. It is attractive and quiet, a bit off the beaten path but central to the three main park areas. It has a lovely hike on the property.
