This VRBO is in a beautiful location near Mackinaw City and hiking trails. The listing looked good but the actual house was better than we expected from the pictures. The hosts were easy to work with and the house is very clean, well kept, and spacious. Our dog loved the outside and the fenced yard. We loved the landscaping as well. Great space
