"When we arrived, we were greeted by a very friendly person at the front desk. After getting checked in, we went to our room the room appeared nice. We liked that it didn’t have carpet in the room. The things that were disappointing were there appeared to be quite a bit of dust on the baseboards and cobwebs in the corner and the toilet did need some maintenance with flushing. We did not report anything. My son enjoyed the pool and loved the breakfast area with the options for breakfast. We would consider staying here again."
Cozy cabin with backyard stream close to Au Sable River and the best ATV trails
8/10 Good
"My husband and I enjoyed a weekend getaway here to celebrate our anniversary. The owners were very quick with responses to any questions. The cabin is quite cozy, the hot tub was lovely to relax in and sitting by the babbling stream with a glass of wine was incredibly relaxing! I haven't felt so relaxed in quite some time!The below is just some information regarding the cabin, not intended to be negative. I have worked in a physical therapy office for 18 years, so things of this nature are more on the forefront of my mind. If you are considered to have moderate to severe mobility and/or a person of size, then I would not suggest this location. The step-up to enter the cabin is a little taller than typical. The bathroom space and shower are small, so it may be impossible for people much larger than my self (I'm 5'5" and about 250 lbs with a large butt) to navigate. Also the bed literally takes up the majority of the floor space of the bedroom, if two people stayed one will need to climb on and across the mattress. The bed is on the taller side as well. Just to reiterate, I do not say these in a negative way, it was noticeable and I just think of accessibility more often now. We had a very low key stay, we ventured 20 minutes south to Rose City and tried both wine tasting businesses, both were completely delightful and we recommend! It was so nice to get away and reconnect with my husband, 20 years strong here! Thank you again, we recommend this location to others"
