We loved this place. Very clean and accommodating and great location, close to town and main roads but tucked away in the woods where you still feel privacy. I would come back and recommend it for any large groups! I’ll never forget the good times here!

Family Vacation

A great place to stay in the Indian River/Burt Lake area. Conveniently located about 25 miles from Petoskey and 30 miles from Mackinaw City. And the grandkids love the beach at the Burt Lake State Park. The Lodge is very comfortable and able to accommodate large groups. A++++++ stay.

Rented the property to have a large family get together. After booking I emailed asking how many table and chairs were in the large room. Was advised 5 round tables and 6 chairs for each. That isn’t what we found. After arriving and digging out the front door which is about 10 feet from the plowed parking lot and covered in over a foot of snow with no shovel in site. We found 5 round tables and 18 chairs. When I messaged the host. I was told the add. chairs were at the adjacent lodge, and I could go get what I needed and would need to take them back. The issue was that the adjacent lodge (down a separate drive ) was not plowed and was buried in snow with no way to get to. We didn’t have enough seating for the party that we had with our family and had a large amount of ppl standing. The issue that tops them all was that I had recieved bites on my left ankle the first night and thought it was a mosquito. Super itchy and would burn when itching then. Second night the opposite ankle. The day we left my brother sleeping in the room adjacent from ours also mentioned itchy bites on his ankle and my son on his foot. My sister in law saw them and said those aren’t mosquitoes it’s the dead of winter. I hadn’t even thought of anything else. Upon further investigation it appears we had received bed bug bites! We contacted VRBO after checkout and they advised the host said this wasn’t possible and declined any type of issues I’ve mentioned above.

Great place for a graduation

The lodge was overall amazing so much to do and everyone was able to relax and enjoy our time together as a family under one roof. We did share the residence with a mouse which is to be expected this time of year but he kept his distance and we kept ours :-) my favorite was the jukebox that played the classics. Plan on making this our go to for graduation celebrations over the next few years
