Girls getaway week

We stayed for 3 nights and couldn't have been happier. Bruce, the host, was very helpful and readily available. The cabin is beautiful and very centrally located, yet private and secluded at the same time. We would love to come back again. Wonderful trip for sure!

Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The grounds were immaculate, and the setting very peaceful. Great location with an east drive to the dunes, several hikes, beaches and Empire, Glen Arbor and Traverse City. We met Bruce, the owner, one morning and he was very friendly and gave us suggestions for hiking, restaurants and beaches. Would highly recommend!

It was a nice quiet cottage located up north.

The cottage was very nice and it had a great view overlooking a small lake. A nice quiet cottage off the beaten path. We would definitely recommend to future travelers who want to experience an "up north adventure.

Better in person!

This cabin was even better than the pictures online. 15-20 minutes from Dunes and shopping/restaurants. It rained one day on our trip, and this cabin provided us with a relaxing and comfortable place to chill.

Wonderful property!

We booked Bruce’s cabin for a trip to celebrate my daughter’s 16th Birthday. It was very comfortable and well appointed. We loved the dock for coffee in the morning and fishing in the evening. The best part though was watching his Labrador do zoomies around the property. Thanks for a great stay!

Comfy/Cozy A-Frame Log Cabin

This is a perfect place if you like the woods, rolling hills, gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, beautiful small towns with quaint shops & restaurants, etc. This cabin is sizeable, perfect for 2 to 4 people. Very clean, nicely decorated, comfortable (& great TV/sound system), good location, everything we wanted. Thanks Bruce & Luna -- we love your place!

Well stocked kitchen including a variety of coffee pods and tea, all the pots and pans needed to cook dinner. Very clean. Beds comfortable. No privacy except bathroom as an FYI. Lovely pond and frogs galore. Only bummer was the Trump flag especially for our group (various marginalized people). Regardless of intention it does not create a welcoming feeling for all.
Lots of frogs around pond out back
Cute decor

Just beautiful!

Absolutely loved our five days at the cabin. It sits on a beautiful piece of property and Bruce couldn't have been more of a gracious host. The cabin has everything you need and then some. Looking forward to renting the cabin in the future. As my family and I just loved the area in and around the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Thanks again.

Great Weekend!

I hadn't had a vacation in about 2 years and needed a getaway. My husband and I originally had other plans, but work got in the way so we had to change them. We found the host and his cabin on Vrbo for a short stay and it was amazing! It was clean, welcoming, on a small lake with a dock, or a fire pit to sit and relax at. It was everything for a nice quiet weekend. The host was close by if we needed anything, yet we still had a nice private cabin. It was so fun and the area had tons of outdoor activities to do. The food was good too. I would totally recommend this space to anyone who wants to enjoy the best Michigan has to offer :)

Amazing Location-Beautiful Cabin!

This well kept Cabin is beautifully nestled off the beaten path in Empire. While secretly tucked away, still quick enough to drive to the surrounding areas for amazing activities to do and sites to see. We enjoyed Empire Beach, Tubing on Platte River, Empire Bluff Hike and Pyramid Point Hike. Breathtaking views of the beaches-never salty clear water so refreshing. The dunes can be hiked or beautifully viewed. Electric bike ride from Glen Arbor to Empire was an amazing last day activity. Bruce was an host! Anything you need he is easily accessible and communicative, while respecting our privacy. We would definitely book again!
