We had an amazing time . The cabin is a home away from home. It’s beautiful inside and out. We spent a lot of time relaxing at the fire pit. We will definitely return
Overall everything was great, was a little out of the way and disappointed there was no access to either lake near us. Cabin was clean and comfortable, tablecloth on DR table needed to be scrubbed - it was a bit sticky! We enjoyed our stay.
Communication with the host was prompt, easy check-in. Cabin was clean and met our needs. We missed the part of the listed that stated there was no A/C, but thats on us. Listing also showed pictures of beach access, but all of these locations were outside of walking distance. Again, something we may have missed about the listing. Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed our time.
We had a great experience at the cabin with one exception. The bed in the room across from the bathroom was not comfortable. With two people it sagged to the center and had no support. Everything else was wonderful. You went above and beyond in supplying everything one could need. The cabin has such a homey feel as soon as you walk through the door. The kitchen and bathroom were extra nice. Exciting to see the additional room in the works. I know a lot of hard work went into making the cabin the way it is. You have done a great job!! We loved the location and enjoyed day trips with not a long drive from our home base. I would highly recommend your cabin to friends! - kim Dake
Great location with close access to Lake Michigan and cute beach towns. Peaceful area for rest and relaxation. Loved sitting on the front porch with a good cup of coffee.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Planned to stay seven days, but were forced to leave after three days due to unlivable conditions in the cabin: excessive dampness; inadequate ventilation; poor air circulation; sticky residue on surfaces and furniture; and overpowering must and mildew smells. We started having respiratory problems the day after we arrived. The owner agreed to provide a dehumidifier, which pulled out 150 to 200 pints of moisture a day. This combined with us purchasing an air purifier for the bedroom helped, but did not mitigate the serious issues in the cabin. For the sake of our health, we had to make a decision to leave early. We have had many experiences staying in cabins over the years, but none like this. Our respiratory issues abated two days after leaving the cabin. The owner has been dismissive of our experience.
The cabin was clean and comfy. We hunted rocks, climbed the dune, shopped, watched sunsets, hiked -- and enjoyed our stay!
Everything we did was within a reasonable driving distance
We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin was exactly as we expected. The lack of A/C didn’t bother us due to the many fans provided. I really appreciate the response speed and recommendations from Amy! We would definitely consider staying here again and recommend it to others.
This cabin was perfect for our girls' getaway for three nights. Amy Clark was quick to reply and answer any questions we had. The cabin was EXTREMELY clean and had all the amenities we needed. The location is excellent - we biked the Betsie trail and drove a short ride to Glen Arbor to ride the trail there.
Rustic cabin in one of the world's most beautiful areas
Great location to use at basecamp to explore some of Michigan's most wonderful lakeshores and many other natural features. The cabin was clean and well-appointed with a full kitchen and a fantastic fire pit. We were here to fish, so we only used the cabin late in the evenings but look forward staying again to take in all the amenities. Great communication, great host, great experience.
We arrived Thursday afternoon to an awesome log cabin, the descriptions on line are spot on. The place has everything you need. We enjoyed our stay and this could be a yearly trip for us. Great location to all that sleeping bear dunes has to offer. Plenty of wood for bonfires, very comfortable beds. I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
For being an old cabin it was a 6/5 for cleanliness. Would recommend for those who can go with out wifi and cable. Great area for setting up a base to explore the northern mitten of Michigan. Had pleasant experience with most everyone in the small towns around. Communication was good with hosts, thou had no problems to get fixed.
This vintage cabin is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing with modern amenities (except the Internet). It harkens back to a mid-twentieth-century time down to small details such as Petosky stone handles on the bathroom cabinet, solid wooden doors, mechanical doorbell, old-fashioned door knobs, wood furniture, and real log walls. Nothing fake here. The cabin is in a wooded area with neighbors who are far enough away to seem almost not there. The property has mature trees of the classic northern hardwood forest such as red oak, beech, red maple, basswood, and sugar maple. Hemlock trees complete the north woods feel. I enjoyed sitting outside at the fire ring reading and watching for northern forest birds such as the yellow-bellied sapsucker and common raven. The black squirrels were especially interesting. Deadstream Road has only light traffic during the day and is quiet otherwise. A short walk down the road is the Mt. Minnie Nature Preserve which has a nice walking trail to a high dune and to Little Platt Lake. We enjoyed our stay immensely.
This was exactly what we needed. The cabin is perfectly located to see and do things aound Lake Michigan. It is peaceful. Amy was quick to respond with any questions or giving suggestiins of places to go. We will stay here again!
