My siblings and I decided to make a trip up to visit Mackinac island and stayed in Cheboygen. We enjoyed the quiet retreat and amenities. The fire pit, wood and abundance of coffee was a nice touch. It was very clean and comfortable.

A Great Place from which to tour Mackinaw City and the UP

The location is great and the property fit us perfectly. The rooms were very clean and organized, the kitchen was well stocked, and the living area was very comfortable. The location was perfect and easy to find.

We had the best family vacation here. The cabin was perfect for our family of 5. We were able to kick back and enjoy a campfire or two with s’mores and tons of laughter! The cabin was so clean and had everything we needed! Big thank you

Beautiful home in a great location

This home was perfect. We loved the way it was decorated and its layout. It's proximity to Cheboygan and Macinaw City was great. We also loved the home's privacy. The campfire area was great as well. And we appreciated that the wood was provided and so many chairs were there. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

Perfect up north stay

Home was clean and beautiful. Inside was exactly like the pictures. Within 15 min of Cheboygan and Mackinac, so it is a great location. Furniture and beds were comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. Loved the modern look, especially the ceiling fans. Thank you for a great getaway. The whole family said they would definitely stay again.
