Great little spot to relax with friends or family. Very easy to find and close to a lot of food options and hiking. Felt very remote without being in the middle of nowhere.

This was a great place to stay in Gladstone! Comfortable and quiet. The mattresses are great, the kitchen has everything you'll need, and the entertainment options (smart TV) are an extra plus. Also the deer and turkey outside your window! Highly recommend.

Cozy, comfortable, with lots of space outside where dogs can run around without bothering people. Beautiful beach parks in Gladstone and Escanaba. The weather is a lot cooler than it is down in central Illinois, which I loved. Hope to come back next summer.

Wonderful

Perfect getaway and home base to explore the area. Fayetteville state park is a must. The house was spotless. We are not pet owners so our expectations are high. Comfortable bed and furnishings. The kitchen had everything we needed.

Cute place

Very nice, quiet little getaway. We had a mama deer with her fawn in the back yard. Wish there was more of a trail to the water but it was very nice nonetheless. Would go again :)

Nice place

The place worked out great for us 4 friends. The modern updates look really nice. We played cards and watched tv. It has 1 window air conditioner but with the box fan in the hallway it cooled the rooms down nicely.

Great location and turned out to be perfect for what we needed. We had a boat and easily parked on the property versus on a street. Would definitely rent again.
