Cozy spot

This was a wonderful little getaway location close to hiking trails. Check in was a little rocky (my door code didn't work) but we managed to get a hold of the host and it was resolved quickly.

Adorable little cozy cabin! Would have loved to see an electric insert for the fireplace or flame less candles. Would have made it even more cozy! Very romantic weekend with the love of my life! Definitely worth the drive from Spring Lake! Local restaurants/bars are great too!

Easy to find

We had problems with the wifi for two days. The bed was a lot smaller than advertised. We did have the whole place to ourselves that was nice.

Labor Day Weekend

The property was quiet and clean with only one other guest in a cabin and only 25 minutes to all the Manistee attractions and the lake. VRBO email had one set of wifi instructions, the box for the router near the TV had another set of wifi instructions, and the binder (which I didnt immediately look at) had a third. The property owner responded immediately to my request after we tried the first two sets of info, which is all I can ask for, but offering consistent information is important.
