Quiet and Relaxing

Our stay was quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the location as it far enough away to be completely quiet, yet close enough to the things we wanted to do.

Great location and set up

Great home layout and location. Our family had a beautiful week exploring pictured rocks. This was a perfect home base. Plenty of trailer space for our pontoon and a pretty quick drive from Munising. We are already talking about coming back.

The property was very nice. Had no trouble finding it. Very fun to all have our own beds. Loved the location. Very remote and private. Wifi was a bit of a problem at first. Loved the screened in porch too.

celebrating friendship

our group of friends (11 of us) have gathered in the UP for 25 years. we traveled to Munising specifically to see the Pictured Rocks, to do the boat cruise, and to hike in the park. And the boat cruise was exceptional. This house accommodated us well. Loved the large kitchen and dining table. Next time to this area, we need to spend more than 2 days.

Beautiful house in the woods

We only got to stay Friday night and Saturday night and checked out on Sunday, I wish we could’ve stayed for a week at least. The place was beautiful, the place was huge plenty of room and bathrooms for nine girls to stay and get ready and it was absolutely the best day we have had in a VRBO. We loved the screened in porch, sat out there and had our morning coffee had a fire outside in the fire pit. It was wonderful.

Bachelor Party

Everything was amazing. The house and property were fantastic as well. We all loved the sauna!! My only suggestion is to get a bigger and better grill. I was disappointed in the grill that was onsite. Made it very hard to cook a meal for everyone at the same time. Thank you

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The main living space was nice and open. We did have a few small issues during our stay. The TV was not working, the owner had it replaced. Both microwaves were shorting out so we were unable to use them. After notifying the owner all they did was remove it from the property. The dish towels in the kitchen need to be replaced. The current ones had holes in them.

The large kitchen made it easy to cook dinner and had everything we needed. There was an artificial tree they let us put up which was very convenient. We utilized the claw tub and sauna several times. It was so cozy and perfect for Christmas.
