Everything was amazing. The hosts were very attentive and wanted to make sure we had a wonderful stay. The lake is absolutely stunning and very peaceful.Be sure to follow the written directions to the house carefully. Google maps does not take you to the right place.

Great location and an awesome place

Great location, property, and cabin. This fit all our needs with space to spare. The lake was glass the whole time and the kids loved the paddle wheeler boat. Close to the trails and not that far from town. As a plus there was enough room to turn around a truck with a big trailer at the cabin.

Beautiful Home and Beautiful Lake!

We had a great time staying at this location. It is very peaceful and there are not many other houses on the lake. Great fishing as well! The only recommendation I would have is to place a humidifier in the basement as it is a little sticky down there. Otherwise great place to stay

A Remote Retreat in the UP

If you're seeking an escape from the hustle and bustle, look no further than this tranquil retreat in the heart of the Upper Peninsula. Nestled amidst a dense forest and a crystal clear lake, this vacation rental offers an unparalleled opportunity to unwind and recharge. Sabin was a warm and hospitable host who greeted us upon arrival, walked us through the home, and promptly answered our questions about the property before and during our stay. The house is clean and spacious and anticipates any needs you have while enjoying the various amenities of the property (a well-stocked kitchen, kayaks, a paddle boat, fishing poles, life vests for our children, etc, were provided by the host). Our days were spent lounging on the deck, fishing on the dock, adventuring the lake upon the paddle boat and enjoying UP's peaceful solitude. I hope your stay is as pleasant as ours.
