Unique, new stay with well outfitted kitchen, and the game room on the lower level got props from the younger people in our family.

We're so glad the well-outfitted kitchen and the game room were a hit with the whole family, especially the younger crowd. It means a lot to hear the stay felt unique and enjoyable for everyone. Thank you for sharing this 5-star feedback.
We had a great weekend. When an extra night was needed the host accommodated us quickly. The place was very clean and comfortable with modern appliances and all needed amenities. We did run out of propane while grilling. Not sure if it is the hosts responsibility to fill the tank or the guest. The steps to the upstairs are pretty long and steep which could be an issue for older folks. Otherwise we loved it.

We're so glad you had a great weekend and that we could quickly accommodate the extra night. It's wonderful to hear the place felt clean, comfortable, and well equipped with modern appliances and everything you needed. Thank you for sharing your experience!
If you would have called me about the LP for grill, I would have grabbed you one!
Glad you had a great time here at DVR.
Very nice property, however Evolve is worthless. Property was marketed as pet friendly and after we arrived they sent an urgent request for an additional 175 dollars for our small house dog. I was so disappointed that I left after one night and would never book anything they represent again. They should not be representing northern Michigan properties.
Definitely recommend, but beware there is a flight of stairs to the main floor. Bathrooms on both floors. Loved the game area! Thank you for a great stay. Very spacious and great appliances.

Thank you for your stay at DVR! Glad you had a fantastic time!
Very clean, great communication, large property for outdoor enjoyment and a gorgeous downstairs that opens up to the backyard and front yard. Very safe area. Highly recommend even though I was sick I was still able to visit family and just relax.

Such a beautiful property! The garage space is chill and relaxing. The upstairs living space is clean, spacious, and everything seemed very intentional and well thought out. The owner was quick to respond whenever we needed help. We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to return next year again!
The owner was very kind and attentive. We loved playing corn hole and we wish we had had time to have a bonfire. The place was modern and well kept.
We would have loved a second full bathroom for all of us when we were getting ready but it all worked out.
Very clean and nice. Beds were super comfortable. Linens and towels were great! Appliances were top of the line and furniture was new. Check in was easy. Patio furniture and grill were also in great condition. We loved the easy access to the back yard. We spent most of our time on the lower level because everything was so convenient.
