We had such a wonderful stay! The place was incredibly quiet and peaceful, which made it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Everything felt so calm and comfortable, and we really enjoyed being able to get away from the busyness of everyday life. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

The home was super clean and perfect for 4 people! So cozy and peaceful! The location was conveniently close to Torch Lake and Bellaire. We also ventured to Traverse City a day since it's within driving distance. Got a perfect mix of peaceful cabin and exploring the neighboring towns/cities.

The space is exquisite! It’s quiet and you’re away from any noise. We got the best rest. The space also has beautiful lighting. Our host was helpful with all our questions and shared some good great recommendations. Highly suggest!

Wonderful cabin in the woods! Loved our stay here and so did our young children. Close to a lot of places that are easy to drive to. Check out skybridge if you’re in town. Only recommendation would be for window blinds or curtains. We were up early with the sun without the window treatments. Highly recommend this place. Host was very accommodating! The fire pit was the best.

My husband and I planned a last minute getaway for us and The Rae was everything we could have wanted and more! Its seclusion and privacy in the woods was so cozy and wonderful. The only thing I would add to the VRBO would be curtains. I do love the concept of everything being open to nature, but to add to the privacy aspect, curtains would be nice. Aside from the curtains, everything was absolutely wonderful! This home is beautifully decorated and very clean! I loved the shower and heated floors in the bathroom! So neat! We enjoyed our stay and plan to return in the summer to rent a boat and take our kids to Torch Lake! We did that during our stay and it is an absolute must see!!
