We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The home was very nice and well appointed. The view out to the lake was beautiful. It is located close to Munising. About a 15 minute drive to Pictured Rocks. We would definitely recommend this place.

Incredible getaway with awesome memories

The house is very easy to find, the check in was a breeze. Walking into the house, we initially walked from one room to the next with oohs and ahhs of the view. It is shockingly beautiful. The owner was in contact with me all day and even let me know the cleaning crew was done early, and we could head over before the official check in time. Sadly we were really slow getting up there to take advantage of that, but it was such a nice gesture. My daughter and I went paddle boarding for the first time, and her and my husband both went kayaking. It was really nice to make memories with our family. The only drawback was that every restaurant we tried did not have gluten free options, so most of the meals we prepared at the house. Unfortunately the non stick pans (which were really good quality, especially for a rental) were blown out because people had scraped the finish off with metal utensils. Apart from that, the place was very clean. An overall very good experience. I don’t think most people would be cooking anyway, so that was a problem most people would never have noticed.

Couples snowmobile weekend

Perfect little cabin for a couples snowmobiling weekend. Plenty of space for all of us and our gear. The house was clean and well thought out. Getting to the trail was super easy but with the warmer temps the road melted off making the short trip to the connector a little sketchy. Overall we can’t complain and would definitely book again!

Just AMAZING. Clean and comfortable. Great communication, especially during the snow storm, making sure we knew what to do. My entire family was able to unwind at the end of long and stressful days, and the view out the living room window became our favorite place to sit and relax.

Great Vacation Spot!!

This was an amazing vacation with beautiful scenery. The lodge was very clean and accommodating for the 6 of us plus our 2 dogs. We had a great time on the lake with the kayaks and fishing boat provided. It's close to Munising to do all the local attractions. The kitchen was fully equipped and the bathrooms had all the amenities. It was easy check in and check out. This lodge was everything that was described and so much more. We give this a 5 Star Rating and would highly recommend staying here. Thank you Tonya and Andy for the great accommodations. We really enjoyed our vacation and are already looking forward to coming back!!!
