Perfect location for skiing, amenities made our stay easy and delightful. Just a quick note to those of you who have ambulatory issues there is a set of stairs to navigate to come up into house from the side door. Other access was not open because of the snow

We rented the River House for a golf outing at Arcadia. The lodge is hard to get into at Arcadia it is hard to get close accommodations. We had a group of middle aged guys - so we wanted convenient, clean and a number of beds. We made a massive steak dinner with potatoes, vegetables, desserts one night and found the kitchen well stocked to handle it. The owners have put a lot of attention to detail around providing niche items and very explicit directions for check-in/out so we had zero questions.We really enjoyed the small pool table and foosball table in the basement. We didn't plan to spend much time outside the house, but the mosquitos were fierce!!

Amazing UpNorth Home

The home and property far exceeded our expectations. The hosts provided so many amenities and “extras” that you wouldn’t normally expect at a VRBO (shampoo, condiments, firewood… to name a few). The location is central to so many beautiful areas. We can’t wait to come back.

Comfortable, roomy place on the Betsie

We had a great time! I've never traveled with dogs or my family, so I'm excited we were able to stay. The river was very accessible, and the kids had a great time wading in. The house was awesome, stocked with the best kitchen supplies I've seen yet. The beds were comfortable, and it felt like someone loves this place, rather than most generic rentals. We made a lot of new memories here.

Roomy and restful

Great property with plenty of space for our group of old friends to reunite while also getting their own space, when needed. Private. Well-appointed; everything we could think of needing was provided. Spent lots of time just sitting down by the river.
