That bedroom, was shut down during a slow period of. It actually has a second portable heater in it but it was stored. So sorry about that. Wish we had known sooner. Thank you for pointing it out. We need to hear all comments. Thanks
Our host John was very welcoming. The cabin was spotless. The location was amazing. Such a beautiful spot. Not far at all from grocery stores and restaurants in Chums Corners and Kingsley. We will definitely stay again.
This is a beautiful place,clean,private,right on the Bordman river! John was easy to communicate with and very accommodating! Loved every minute there!!
Really good spot. Probably the easiest check in/check out communication process I’ve ever experienced. Place was spotless and everything was new and in great condition. Serene, quiet, not too far from town. Pretty unbeatable.
Unbelievable location! We selected the booking because of the convinent location for our traver city vacation. When we arrived we where blown away by the view. Whether you are relaxing in the hot tub or just watching the ducks while eating at the kitchen island. The painting like scenery was worth the trip alone. But when you throw in the ability to be transported into one of the best places to visit in Michigan with a ten minute drive it's like taking two vacations. The property manager and owner are extremely kind and wonderful. It is a beautiful place to share with loved ones. I don't think I will ever forget the time we shared there.
Our stay was absolutely perfect for our mini-honeymoon. It balanced seclusion with convenience - the closest stores being less than 10 minutes away. The view from every angle was completely stunning. The cable allowed us to watch Monday Night Football on the massive 75" TV. There was fresh wood by the fire pit, plenty of outdoor seating, and tons of river access for fishing. The kitchen was stocked with all the pots/pans/dishes necessary (but bring your own seasonings/condiments), there were sufficient towels, and soap & shampoo/conditioner provided. I loved having access to all brand-new, modern appliances - including the washer and dryer. We are already talking about returning!
