My wife, our two little girls, my sister and parents rented this cabin in mid-July for a couple day vacation in the Mackinaw City/Mackinac Island area. It was wonderful - close enough to all the touristy stuff (within 10 minutes) but also not in the thick of it, placing us in a beautiful natural environment to relax and unwind. The close proximity to a roadside park on the water and the North Central State trail were extra bonuses we didn't really realize prior to arrival.We enjoyed the expansive covered porch and the fire pit. Our little girls were enthralled by the stream and bridge in the back. The bugs weren't bad at all, but the screened gazebo would also have been great if they had been. I was initially a bit worried about the cabin's proximity to the highway and road noise, but the substantial buffer of trees made this not an issue at all.Inside, the cabin is nicely furnished (spent a good amount of time on the comfy leather sectional in particular) and clean. The bathrooms are a bit dated and have some quirks, but it's a cabin and to be expected. The cabin had all we needed as far as pans, plates, silverware, etc. One of the most thoughtfully stocked cabin we've rented, particularly with kids stuff.The option for expanding to a second cabin (not rented to separate groups at the same time) make us quite interesting in taking more family up with us next time.The bottom line: we'd most certainly rent this cabin if we travel again to this area and have the chance.
