Family trip

We went up to Michigan for a family reunion, and this location was 2 minutes from where a large portion of the group was staying but provided much more space and accommodations for our smaller family unit. Lee and Bill were very communicative and helpful with a few small questions I had. Overall, it was a great experience for us!

Fishing, Burt and Mullet

The property was everything it was advertised as and much more.. we were very comfortable in the dwelling and the location is awesome!! You can’t get much closer to everything you need with the feeling of a wilderness adventure.. we had deer in the yard twice a day, turkeys, red headed woodpeckers.. just an abundance of wildlife.. we would book this home again in a heartbeat!!

Great house, great location

Owners actually greeted my Son who checked in before we made it up North. Very friendly, very easy to work with. A block away from Vivio's (great restaurant), right down the road from the State Park, and a short drive to Petoskey and other attractions. Excellent spot.

Everything We Needed

The property was just as described plus more. I’ve never stayed in a place that thought of everything. Shampoo, conditioner, soap, hair dryer, even a curling iron. Spices, aluminum foil, ice, coffee, it was all there. Good communication with the owners via messages. Nice quiet area. Don’t hesitate to rent this home.

Not as expected

We were disappointed with the cleanliness of this place. It has an ant problem too. It may require fumigation at some point. The location was very quiet, except the neighbors did not respect the quiet times.

Good location, plenty of room

This was our home base for a high school fishing tournament. Lots of room in the driveway for boats & trailers. The location was convenient access to both lakes, downtown, restaurants, launches, etc. Plenty of space for 6 guests. We did not use all the amenities, but kitchen is fully stocked, laundry was convenient, and even a firepit was on site.

Excellent place to stay! Our family stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute of the area.

The house was as it was advertised. The property owners were great with communication and easily able to get in touch with. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The location was excellent especially for the short trip to the UP and Mackinaw City. We plan to stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Lee and Bill

Host profile image
Lee and Bill live in Traverse City. Lee is a Northern Michigan native who grew up in Alpena. Bill is a native New Yorker who moved to Michigan in 1986. We are boaters and skiiers and Indian River offers proximity to both. We have spent a lot of time in our new place, fixing it up and making it ours. We hope to offer a wonderful vacation experience to our renters and use it ourselves when it's not rented.

Why they chose this property

Lee and Bill fell in love with the Indian River area after spending time there several summers ago. The Inland Waterway offers access to 4 gorgeous lakes with great swimming, boating, etc. In the winter we are only 25 minutes to our favorite ski resorts. We are only 25-30 minutes from Gaylord. Mackinaw City, and Cheyboygan, and 20 minutes to Petoskey.

What makes this property unique

Our home has the best of both worlds: wildlife in the backyard (deer, turkeys), and yet, walking distance to many amenities. If you are a snowmobiler, you will love this, only 2 blocks to the trails!
