Peaceful Winter Retreat

This property is fantastic. I stayed for a week and relaxed in the quiet cozy surroundings. Its location is perfect. I made trips to Traverse City, Boyne Mountain, Charlevoix, and Petosky. The property is also ideal for pets, with a very large yard and plenty of room for your pups to run.

Everything about this place - cottage and land was wonderful! Super comfortable, “homey”, and amenities were outstanding. Lit the “Christmas” tree every day. Love love the fact that we could bring our dog with us. She had a great time exploring the property. The walk to the boat ramp was short which we did every day so our dog could go swimming. Went to Traverse City, Petoskey, Gaylord, and Mackinaw City as they were close by. We enjoyed Northern Michigan and can’t wait to come back to this place!

Best rental on VBRO

I want to start by saying that between myself and my family we have rented a good amount rentals on VBRO. The owners of this property were by far the best and quickest with there response to any questions that we had. Thank you so much for that Joseph. Now let's talk about the cabin. It was the best place that we have rented. Amazing location, close to multiple cities, the yard was fantastic for my dog to run around and enjoy. The fire pit was great and wood was chopped. We have already started planning our second trip back there. What an outstanding cabin, fantastic owners and a great location. Thank you so much for such a great weekend!!

Tranquility & Peace

We have stayed at many VRBO and Airbnb properties in Northern Michigan. This one was by far the most fabulous of them all! This property is as advertised. It is a beautiful home and expansive property that is tranquil and peaceful. Its proximity to so many wonderful lakes and small towns, including Central Lake, is idea for any up-North adventure. The home is laid out well, comfortable, and has all the conveniences of home. The fact that it is pet friendly is also a plus for those travelling with their furry family. Further, the property is extremely close to a DNR boat launch, and my family and I enjoyed paddleboarding several of the Chain-O-Lakes. Joseph is a great host, and all was ready for us at the property. If you stay here, you will not be disappointed.

Extra charges may apply!!

I booked rental.. as I’m the responsible party.. a 2 bedroom. Arrived to 3 burnt out light bulbs in kitchen and a load of laundry in dryer...Just what i want to do ...fold laundry the 1st day.. had sister and husband stay 2 nights.. host tried to nail me with extra person charge of $350..The next day charged $350 more for late payment.. don’t fall for his scam. it's a request from host...not from VRBO...They had my back . And your on camera outside 24/7. Yes it’s got 2 queen mattresses. Just one is on floor in in common area upstairs no bed frame 😱. No privacy upstairs either, has openings in wall of bedroom and above bathroom.. you can hear EVERYTHING! maybe glass is planned for those openings...but it's not there yet... Come on Joe be honest in your listening.. and stop trying to nail people with the unregistered guest garbage it’s not a charge by the head thing is it?.... . downstairs was fine , comfortable bed, cold AC, sunporch nice in morning. but you need a bath mat in that tall tub.. very slippery . Dining room in an odd spot.. Was nice and quiet.. corner party store has great pizza. And the torch lake cafe is awesome Could be great just needs a little help, and some common sense from host

Deer Point Trails is a wonderful property! Very comfortable, the grounds are a great bonus! Nice fire pit area and some short trails on the property for little ones. We were able to bring our dogs Bella (4lb. Yorkie) and Pepper (40lb Springer) They really loved the yard! The Host, Joseph was very accommodating and made certain we were comfortable.

North for 1st time

We rented this beautiful cabin for our cousins first time going north. He wanted to be able to see several locations so this was a good landing point and luckily accepted our fur babies. Thank goodness for GPS, but it was a great location to be able to see Charlevoix Traverse City Mackinac Island (City) Petoskey etc. so overall very pleased. Also enjoyed biking from Boyne City to Boyne Falls. Joseph was great in response to any questions. Will plan to stay again in the future
