Remote, cozy, clean, and comfortable! We celebrated our 16th Anniversary while there, wish we would have stayed longer! It was perfect. I will continue to book this perfect remote getaway!!Thank you
The hill was very challenging and didnt know it was catch release. It was very quiet and relaxing but wish we wouldve had better restaurants close by. And with no ac upstairs it was very hot.
This is a great little cabin if you are looking for a quiet retreat. The reason we did not give it a five star review is because of the strong sulfuric smell that came from the shower. We contacted the host and he assured us it was safe and normal and we just needed to run the shower for awhile and the smell would go away. It slowly got less intense. We were also sad to not be able to swim (as neighbors were out on the lake with intertubes) and would have loved a small boat or other option to enjoy the water. Great host though and lovely setting. Expect to drive out of town awhile for dining or grocery options.
We were pleasantly surprised with the cabin. Everything was clean and organized. Helpful hints: take along a 9x13 pan, foil, oil, S'more sticks, matches, and lots of reading materials! Download Netflix movies in advance on your phone. Take HDMI cable for connection. Download offline maps, it was a true benefit as internet service is spotty for the full area. Steep hill to dock. Oh, and don't forget to take your shoes off at the door! Respect the property! We loved our stay, especially late night shooting stars during the Perseids Meteor Showers! Finally, Shoey's Log Cabin and Jones Ice Cream are great places to visit in Baldwin. Pass on Woody's Pizza. Thank you for everything! We loved our stay at the cabin!
We loved the cabin and property! Exceptionally clean and well maintained. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. Would love to come back for another visit!!
We truly enjoyed our stay and wish we had more time to stay longer. The cottage was clean, well furnished, comfortable, and had all the items you need to make your stay hassle free. We enjoyed walking down to the lake and our daughter caught her first fish. The views of the stars are breathtaking. Thank you for a great stay!
This cabin is beautifully renovated and Brian was very good at communicating and making sure we had everything we needed. We loved hiking the North Country Trail. Would definitely stay here again.
Can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed this stay…the woods, the lake, the tastefully decorated and well-equipped cabin. Brian was an accommodating host. I hope to get back for another stay.
We enjoyed this beautiful cabin for 2 days. We were looking for a place that wasn't busy. We wanted nature, quietness and to relax. This was perfect for that. Brian was very easy to communicate with. Town locals were very friendly. Delicious produce. Perfect setting for a fall Michigan getaway. We definitely recommend this cabin!
The property is beautiful. The house seems very new and was very clean. Very easy process for check in and communication with the owner. I would definitely stay there again.
We had a nice quiet getaway and the cabin was beautiful! We enjoyed a bonfire on Friday night, spent the day in Ludington, Pentwater & Mears on Saturday with another bonfire. A woodpecker even joined us on Saturday night! The cabin was absolutely spotless when we checked in!
Absolutely beautiful, everything went right. We fell in love with this place instantly. I would highly recommend this host and peaceful place. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer.
Beautiful property, very clean cabin with all the comfort’s of home. The property manager was very helpful. We enjoyed our weekend and we went home very relaxed. We will come back to stay again. Cynthia
