The property was immaculate and very, very comfortable. We were impressed by how well-equipped the kitchen was as well as the host's responsiveness to questions. The location is perfect if you are looking for a quiet spot that is still only 30 minutes from places like the Sleeping Bear Dunes or area wineries. We had a great time!!

This cabin is in a quiet wooded area with a view of Cedar Lake that is really beautiful. Kayaks, a canoe and even a pontoon boat are available. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay! Cabin is close to wineries, waterfront restaurants, breweries and downtown TC. Favorite spots were Sleeping Bear Dunes, Mission Lighthouse and Historic Fishtown. 10/10 experience!

The property was in good condition. During the summer there is only a very small view of the lake from the house, however that's because the property is so wooded. I'll note that the property has well water that is completely untreated. I think it's technically safe to drink but it tastes bad and smells like eggs. As long as you bring a lot of bottled water or jugs of water you should be OK. Don't wash any clothes that are too precious to you as the well water gave some of our clothes rusty streaks. I guess what I'm trying to say is if you prepare for the well water, this is a really great place to stay.

Had a great time on Cedar Lake fishing, boating, kayaking, fires, golf, cards, cornhole, and also trips into Traverse City. Enjoyed the surrounding area on Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Ann. The cabin and pontoon boat were excellent for the week of fun with family.

Great Spring Break in the woods!

Our family of 4 (plus medium-sized dog) had a wonderful 5 nights here in the woods. We enjoyed how far away from everything we felt while at the cabin, but how close we actually were to Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and more.
