Our 5-STAR RATINGS and amazing guest comments speak for themselves:

" 5/5 SUMMER STAY: The house was really remarkable and the location is perfect. It's a block or two away from the downtown area and a block or two away from the lake. And yet, never felt busy. It was actually a really peaceful place within walking distance to everything (even Avalanche overlook!). The whole process of dealing with Michele and Chris was great as well. I would highly recommend this house for a great family and/or friends getaway!!"

"5/5 Great location. FANTASTIC PROPERTY!"

"5/5 Fantastic Hosts: CANNOT SAY ENOUGH about how nice these hosts are, how CLEAN the house is, how CONVENIENT the location is, and the overall experience was PERFECT. They had bottled water waiting in the fridge for us. They had fresh bananas on the countertop. The towels, sheets, pillows and blankets were all clean and soft. Just an overall excellent EXCELLENT experience!"

"5/5 Host was absolutely amazing and helpful, and I literally have no complaints at all. I would definitely recommend."

"5/5 Loved being so close to downtown Boyne City. Hosts were AMAZING! First time up north and it was fabulous. HOUSE IS BEAUTIFUL."

Excellent property for our family vacation that included 2 small grandchildren. The 3 bedrooms and 2 baths worked well. Great location, just 2 blocks from business district with shopping and restaurants. Great grocery store with Starbucks just down the road. Host was good at communication and preparations.

We rented this property to visit family in the area for a quick, last minute weekend. It worked out very well for three adults and two kids under 15. Our host was great with communication and we were able to access the home earlier than the check in time. The home is updated, extremely clean and has all the amenities needed for guests. It offers a tub and walk in shower for individuals requiring extra assistance. The updated laundry / mudroom was great for beach bags, shoes and laundry! The home is located within walking distance to a public beach and Downtown Boyne City.

The house and property were incredibly clean and the hosts were friendly and responsive. The location was great. 10 minute drive to Boyne Mountain and 1-2 block walk to the little downtown for coffee or restaurants. The only suggestion I have is that some hooks for coats etc would be helpful. Thanks for a great family weekend!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We really appreciate that you left the house is such perfect condition! You are welcome anytime. P.S. Thank you also for the recommendation. We did have a wall-mounted coat rack in the back laundry space, however the guests prior to your stay pulled it out - yikes...we're working on more securely attaching, so it will be ready for your next stay :-)

This VRBO was exceptionally clean and spacious for our family. The kitchen was huge and had all the amenities needed. Washer and dryer were a great plus. The neighborhood felt safe and we had timely snow removal. Super close to downtown, the ski hill, and to good restaurants. Would recommend to others!

Seamless communication and logistics. House was spacious, clean, and kitchen was well-appointed. The only suggestion would be to soften the interior lights for a cozier feel. Location was amazing, just two blocks from the main drag of Boyne City and an easy drive to Boyne Mountain for skiing.
