Great cabin, relaxed stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: That was a nice (and short) week. Beautiful place. It is on the intersection of two not very busy roads, but is set back enough for privacy. The cabin is very clean and has everything you need. I found that grilling tools were missing, but Nikki arranged replacement within 30 minutes. Great response time and attention! The place is great for a small family. For those traveling with dogs and prefer a relaxed not crowded beach, I recommend Buttersville park and beach - about 12 minutes drive north on Lakeshore Drive. There’s a lot of options for people with various interests: swimming and other water sports, fishing, dining. Speaking about all those options, the folder on the kitchen table has a lot of recommendations and is really helpful.In general, a great stay except for deadly mosquitoes. There were a couple of rainy and stormy days, and the cabin is between Lake Michigan and Bass Lake, so the humidity was bad. I would definitely recommend to stay there and will try to rent again if it’s available.Thank you.
