Great Family Home Near Local Ski Resorts

We had a group of fathers and sons looking for a place to stay near the local ski resorts. This home was perfect for us. Warm fireplace, lots of space, fully equipped kitchen and great location. The hosts were particularly responsive and helpful from initial booking, to pre-visit, and through the visit itself. Wonderful spot.

Can’t say enough great things about this home. It works out perfectly for multiple families especially with kids. The location is fantastic and convenient. Conveniently located between both Nubs, Nob, and Boyne Highlands. Will definitely be back!

Great location to ski Boyne Highlands!

2 families joined for an awesome ski weekend at this lovely vacation home. The house has everything you need—roaring fireplace, plenty of entertainment options (billiards, ping pong, Centipede video game, board games), kitchen with all the tools to cook breakfast and dinner. We had lunch at Slope side at Boyne. Plenty of room for our families! Highly recommend!

Holiday Stay

Our entire family was able to stay at this property over the holidays (8 adults and 2 kids). The house provided ample sleeping for everyone and the game room is fantastic. Communication with Fullmer family from the date of booking was fantastic. No question went unanswered. I highly recommend this property.

Great house for 3 families with lots of character

We had three families together for a ski weekend. Had a great time in this amazing house. It was so fun to be able to see all the history in this house. Very comfortable for all of us. Kids loved the game room in the basement. Close to Boyne for skiing. Hope we can snag it again next year!

This was the sweetest, most quaint and comfortable home we’ve ever stayed in. Thank you Sandy and Bill for allowing us into your special home. It’s obvious how much you love it. Close to Nubs and Highlands if skiing is what you’re looking for. Lovely home. Highly recommend.

Wonderful stay

My wife and kids and our friends loved our stay at this property! We were there for 4 nights and my kids and their friends had plenty of things to do and move around! All 5 kids stayed in the trundle bed room and had a blast! Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, plates, silverware...oh and the location! Literally minutes from Highlands and Nubs! Highly recommend 10/10. I would stay there again in a heartbeat! Also, the owners were a pleasure to work with!

Beautiful home

We went to Northern Michigan for our granddaughters high school graduation party. Our 2 sons and their families and my husband and I stayed at this property. We were only few miles from the home of our daughters family where the party was. This home has everything you would ever need. We cooked breakfast every morning. I highly recommend this home. The owners were easy to get ahold of and were very pleasant to talk to.

Great House

This was a great place to stay for our family ski weekend! There was lots of space for us all to enjoy. The kids loved the game room in the basement, as well as the cozy loft nook. The house was fully stocked and it was nice to feel like we were in a home away from our home with all of their decorations around. The beds were so-so but there were enough fans for all of the bedrooms which was great for our love of sound at night. There were lots of nightlights too which was nice! The hosts were wonderful with communicating before check-in to make sure we didn't have any questions. They had a binder with lots of helpful information as well. We would definitely stay here again!!
