The home was exceptionally clean, comfortable, well stocked, and well laid out. It is close to the lake for access and the location allows to get quickly into town while being in a quiet neighborhood. Communication with the host was excellent, prompt, and the information about the area/home was appreciated. Excellent stay!

Wow! Our host was so communicative and helpful. When the cleaning crew noticed that the refridgerator wasn't working correctly, we were immediately notified that they were working on the problem. We arrived to find a fridge that we could use until the other was fixed. Fabulous. The overall house was well equipped and perfect for what we needed. A great place to hang out and so close to the snowmobile trail. Highly recommend!

Gaylord Fall Getaway

Sierra & Brendan’s home is amazing! Short walk to the lake. The home is extremely clean and furniture very comfortable. The beds have a heating feature which is a nice touch, there is also space heaters is each room (this helps since there is no vents in bedrooms). I would definitely would stay here again if traveling to this area.

About the host

Hosted by Brendan McNeal

Host profile image
I live downstate but have been visiting Northern Michigan with family and friends for years. When I'm not using the property, I’m more than happy to share it with others so they can experience the beauty of this area too!

Why they chose this property

This house is nestled near Otsego Lake, the largest lake in the Gaylord area, spanning about 5 miles. With its sandy bottom and shallow waters, this all-sports lake is perfect for swimming, boating, fishing, kayaking, and more. In the winter, it's conveniently close to snowmobile trails and ski resorts. The locals are welcoming, and my family and friends have cabins nearby too!

What makes this property unique

My dad and I built this cabin from the ground up over the course of two years. We've poured countless hours, sweat, and heart into making this house a reality.
