The perfect winter get-a-way!

Our family loved the thoughtfully decorated, cozy cabin and close location to Crystal Mountain. The game room, open floor plan, and snow shoes were perfect for family time.

Perfect cabin in a great location

Fantastic weekend getaway. We chose this log home mainly for its location, and it did not disappoint. Although we were maybe a week early for peak colors, it was still beautiful. Im pretty picky about the places we stay, and the Cabin was exactly what we were looking for. From early pre trip contact with Amy, through final checkout i cant say enough good things about the host or the stay. Privacy, location, authentic log home, what more can you ask for. The biggest issue we had was not wanting to leave 🙂. We will surely return.

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods

The driveway leads you into the woods to a beautiful secluded cabin! Very clean, comfortable beds, front and back porches for morning coffee. You won’t be disappointed. My grandkids loved playing air hockey, the adults loved it too. We loved how centrally located it was. We spent a day at Sleeping Bear Dunes, went kayaking on platt river, picked cherries in Traverse City. We also rode the Alpine Coaster, and went putt putt golfing. We were able to sit by the fire at night and enjoyed making s’mores Amy was wonderful at responding quickly to any concerns we had. We checked in very late at night and Amy had the lights turned on for us which helped a lot. We live in Tulsa Ok and this was our first log cabin experience. We will definitely be back to stay in the beautiful cabin in the woods.

Magical Cabin in the Woods

This authentic log cabin in the woods is a peaceful retreat yet so close to Crystal Mountain amenities and local breweries and restaurants. The cabin is clean, cozy, and decorated with a cute cabin theme. It’s a wonderful place to get away and relax. Amy is a responsive and great host! We had a wonderful time!

Very nice cabin

Very nice cabin. Would have given a five star for cleanliness but when we lifted the couch cushions to use the pull out couch there was a LOT of popcorn. Also linen is NOT included for the pull out bed. It states in the listing that “all linens are included”. It also states three bedrooms, but it’s actually two bedrooms with privacy and a door, the master bed is in the loft right over the kitchen. Everyone can hear everyone. Other than the couch the house was VERY clean, inside and out. Exceptionally clean for a cabin in the woods. There were no bugs or spiderwebs etc. The basement playroom was VERY nice. The cabin for sure needed more lighting on the whole first floor. Was very dark. The kitchen light wasn’t working when we were there. That would make a big difference in the kitchen area. I would have liked curtains on the windows also. There weren’t enough panels to cover the windows in the downstairs living area or the kitchen door and window. Bedrooms and bathrooms had curtains. All the beds were very comfortable but ridiculously creaky. You could not move in the beds without waking everyone up. Also I think getting a washer dryer would be a good investment. There is a laundry 10 minutes away, but who wants to spend two hours at a laundromat when they’re on vacation.

We really enjoyed the home and the location.

The home was very clean and in a wonderful location. One suggestion would be adding a railing on the basement steps. A must for people that have difficulty with steps. Thanks for all your assistance!!

Fantastic Northern Michigan Property! Everything you would want in a cabin getaway!

Everything as advertised and more. Pictures do not do it justice! If you are looking for a Northern Michigan Cabin this is it! The host Amy was excellent with suggestions on restaurants and stores. All recommendations we five star. Easy to work with, especially since this was our first VRBO experience. She made everything flawless.

Beautiful Cabin, Conveniently Located

Our family enjoyed a weekend getaway to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Lake Michigan. This cabin was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 1 young child. The cabin was absolutely lovely, but also family friendly, with comfy furniture, bunk beds for the kids, a game room, and a fully stocked kitchen. It's back from the road quite a ways in the woods, so our little guy could be "joyfully exuberant" and we didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone. Nice, home-cooked meals, smores by the bonfire in the evening, and only 35 minutes to Sleeping Bear and the lake, made for a fun, relaxing weekend. We'll definitely be looking to stay here again in the future. Highly recommend!

This was a perfect getaway for our family of 4. Cozy and very clean, secluded but very close to Crystal Mountain. Great wifi so our kids could do e-learning all week. Kids loved the bunk beds and air hockey and we all enjoyed being in the yard and making smores every night. We hope to come back!

Heaven on Earth

From the moment we arrived it truly felt like heaven on earth. Relax on the front porch with a cool breeze rustling through the trees. Enjoy coffee and tea on the back porch with the warm morning sun. If you’re a golfer, be sure to play a round at Betsie Valley which is two minutes away at the Crystal Mountain Resort. There are so many details that the owners took great care to install in this magnificent property! If the weather permits be sure to enjoy a bonfire under the stars. Firewood can be purchased at the nearby gas station. Be sure to get breakfast at Rosie’s Country Cafe, less than five minutes away. Lunch is a must at The Cherry Hut in Beulah less than 15 minutes away. The cherry chicken salad is excellent! If you’re a lighthouse buff, Frankfort is about 20 minutes away and the view of the dunes is spectacular from the lighthouse catwalk!
