Handcrafted Log Home on River Near Crystal Mtn

From the owner: "Hi Lisa, we’re so glad your family enjoyed their stay and found that our home had everything you needed for a great trip! We would like to clarify that our property is a log home, not a condo, located 4 miles from the ski resort. While the cabin doesn’t offer views of the resort, shuttle service is available door-to-door for your convenience. We're delighted to hear the home still provided a wonderful experience for your family!"

Thanks, JakeGlad you appreciated our place! We are happy to share it with you and your family. We’re also happy you got in the river and enjoyed all that our beautiful area has to offer. We hope you will book us again.

Hi Maia, we're glad to hear that you and your friends had a great time and enjoyed the spaciousness of the home! We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:- The path to the river is indeed steep, and due to Michigan’s wildlife preservation laws, no steps can be added. We understand it may be challenging for those with mobility issues, but there is another access point not far from the property.- The property next door is a rental cottage, not an inn, and the firepit is behind a row of pine trees, which acts as a natural barrier to privacy.- The lighting was enhanced when the property was converted into a short-term rental, and most guests appreciate the ambiance it creates. However, we’ll continue to monitor this feedback.- The upstairs bedroom without a window is a cozy nook with a curtain for privacy, not a traditional room. Additionally, we’ve removed the unsecured rug to ensure no more incidents occur.- The kitchen does have dedicated cabinets for guest storage, and we’ve since added a sign to make this clear for future visitors.- While the large patio doesn’t currently have a table, we appreciate your suggestion and plan to add one in the near future. The screen door was removed due to repeated damage, but we’ll look into alternative solutions.Thanks for sharing your insights with us—we’re always looking to improve!
