Cozy Cottage on River
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!

Excellent Way to Start 2024
Stayed at this awesome place NYE 2023 (Dec 31 – Jan 2, 2024) with my GF. Views of the river's wildlife complemented the interior’s holiday décor. The area has numerous attractions during the winter – including downhill skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing. We had a lovely time. Highly recommend during the winter/cold months.

Wonderful cottage and location!
We decided to stay at the cozy cottage based on the beautiful photos with the listing. When we got to the cottage we were very pleased to find that the cottage was even cuter than the photos showed! It had everything we needed for our 3 day stay and the backyard was the perfect spot to relax in the late afternoon after sightseeing all day. It was very clean and comfortable. The owners also knew we were celebrating our honeymoon and left us some chocolate and Prosecco which we found to be so thoughtful. Highly recommend this place for your stay! We hope to come back one day to further explore the beautiful area.

Perfect Cottage
Tamara and Jason are the perfect hosts! The cottage was extremely clean and well stocked with all the essentials and more. They even provided a wonderful bottle of wine on arrival. The location was an easy drive to Petoskey, Harbor Springs and the ferry to Mackinac Island. I loved being able to watch all the boats pass the cottage on Crooked River. Very peaceful. I would definitely stay here again. Such a gem!

Great Place to Relax!
This truly was a cozy cottage. It was clean, cute, and had everything we needed. Tammy was communicative through the process and it was the perfect location - it felt like it was close to everything! We went up to do some hiking and it was the perfect spot to come back to and relax in the evening. We didn't get to utilize the deck as much as we hoped because the weather was too cold, but i imagine in the summer it is the perfect hang out spot. The bed was comfy, the water pressure in the shower was great, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
