Comfortably Spacious and Well Equipped
Two sets of grandparents and a family of 5 with 3 children under 6 years old had a very comfortable weekend located close to other family members staying at nearby properties while coming together for a nephew's memorial service. Children thoroughly enjoyed the game room, and the setting was a beautiful walk to nearby properties.

Great Northern Michigan Retreat
This property was perfect for our group - 2 families, comprised of 4 adults and 5 children. We had plenty of space, and having the full basement with game room was a huge bonus for our stay! The house was clean and the amenities were awesome. We loved the double sided fireplace and we were able to totally disconnect and relax. We will definitely keep this property in our rotation.

Nurture the Spirit
Seven women gathered at Rustic Northern Retreat for our third annual retreat. The setting was a perfect place to deepen our friendship, commune with nature, God, the unseen and each other. With two well-stocked kitchens and excellent cooks, we were well fed. We hiked at Grass River Nature Preserve and on the grounds, spread out for yoga in the downstairs, and gathered around the fire circle for singing, conversation, stargazing and laughter. An ideal outing that we hope to repeat next fall.
