Great location, hosts were amazing with answering all my questions and never bothered us. Cabin was super cute and set up well. They even left us chips and candy as a treat! I would definitely recommend staying here again. Quick walk to the light house and Lake Huron.

Plenty of clean sheets comfortable pillows, full kitchen, temperature control wifi. Didn't spend much time at the house, but it was in a good location for a good price. Quiet and tucked away, but close to the water. The night light in the bathroom was helpful because there are three steps in the house that could be a problem if you're sleepy in the dark or have little ones like us.

I was pleased with the house, except for the one small raised floor from the bedroom to the bathroom. I have a small balance problem, and this 12 in. wide floor was an issue. Otherwise. I did not mind the "up and down levels from kitchen to living room, to second room, to bedroom. I had plenty of space to work on my scrapbooking project. Thanks

Michael was an amazing and accomodating host who had everything laid out so that there would be no need to constantly check with him for anything. He provided a list of restuaraunts in the area, great locations to hike and go to the beach, and a neighbor with which to get fresh eggs and firewood when we needed it. Our dog unforutnately made herself known on some of the furniture which is a big no no in the rules but Michael was very understanding about everything and I couldn't have had a better experience at this cabin.

Thank you Gina for occupying our cabin last weekend. You were wonderful guests. Me and my daughter Lindsey take our jobs as hosts very seriously and are not happy that you and your husband were not completely happy. We take constructive criticism very seriously to help everyone. Unfortunately the one step into different rooms is irreversible at this point and havnt had any other guests mention this to be a problem We only want total happiness. Weโ€™re sorry if we didnโ€™t achieve that. Thanks again Mike

Cute, quiet cabin near the lake

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It is a little funky- it seems to be made from a mid century mobile home and an addition, so it has a step up to get into the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the fire pit and the easy walk to the lake. The host was very good at communicating and you can tell that they care a lot about this property and they want their guests to have a nice time.

Enjoy the little home - it was great for us and our little fur babies. I would just recommend WiFi service for better connection, as we had trouble with connection. We only had 1 bar with Verizon. Iโ€™m ok with no TV, as long as I have Internet connection. Thank you for opening you place for us.

Unit was clean. Excellent location near park on Lake Huron. Did not notice all the step-ups in the cabin in the listing. We are older. Could only get in/out of bed from one side meaning 2nd person had to climb over person to get up to use the potty during the night. Two steps down from bedroom, then 2 steps up into bathroom. At night, half-asleep and groggy going to bathroom (which is common for older people) and navigating the 2 set of steps was daunting. The photos in the listing did show the steps, but I didn't realize how challenging layout would be in person.

Sorry to hear that the step was challenging to you and I appreciate the other compliments. Unfortunately I cannot change the layout. For future guests that will be reading this there is only One step going into the bathroom and only one step coming out of bedroom not two . Glad everything else was good
