The rental was ok until unfortunately we had bedbugs in the main bedroom. I did let owners know and they offered cleaning and changing up bedding . We declined offer while still there. We stayed in the other rooms in which we didn’t find any more bedbugs in those rooms. It made it an uncomfortable stay.
It was very disappointing that I didn’t hear from the owners after we left. Not a single message to see how we were doing. I do have pictures of the bugs and my feet. .
I have hesitation to speak unkindly but I feel now this was not acceptable.
Please review and get back to me.
Thank you.

We had a great time on our Northern Michigan Vacation getaway. Location very convenient to Petosky downtown, Petosky State Park and a short drive to Mackinaw City. Thought we could have a problem with only one bathroom but it was large and worked perfectly for us. Hot week we were there so did suggest to owners to provide fans for people sleeping in basement.

The place is very nice! The carpet was a little sandy, but overall the place was pretty clean. My family enjoyed the time we spent there. A possible improvement recommendation would be to add a second bathroom.

We book a different location every year for our family vacation. This home exceeded our expectations and was close to every place we wanted to travel/visit. If we ever chose Michigan for our vacation again, we would chose to stay here again! Great for a family to stay with tons of activities.

We stayed at this property to visit family for a long weekend in November. The house was clean, cozy and had all the amenities for a fun weekend getaway. The kids loved the basement! We hope to return in the summer. Thanks!

I was very impressed with the house. I love the fact that we could cook our meal. Plus we were in the middle of Petoskey and Mackinac. The house was wonderful and the host left us a welcome basket was a treat. My pets were happy and our daughter was happy she had her own space. It was a amazing experience and i hope that we can rent it again.I will recommend this house.

I was in town for work. This was in close proximity and gave me the much needed relaxation at the end of the day. The only minor issue was that there were limited carpet/rugs (for my pet). She had a hard time getting around on the slippery floors so I had to improvise with blankets and rugs that I brought with us. Otherwise, everything was wonderful! The added treats were perfect.

My sisters and I took my mom (5 in group total) on a summer trip to Mackinac Island area for a long weekend. The house is lovely, extremely clean, well designed, many amenities and sleeping accommodations for each of us, we all slept like a rock. The house close to Mackinac Island, Mackinac City and tons of local cute shops and restaurants.
We decided to cook most meals and the stove, grill, and kitchen supplies were exceptional, they had everything we needed to cook excellent meals and enjoy them in the main living area.
The game room was an absolute suprise, we all spent an afternoon laughing and playing like kids; air hockey, foosball, arcade games, pool, recreational area for movies and lounging.
The last night we enjoyed the firepit, relaxing and talking abt the fun we had; Mackinac Island, the Lumberjack show, the casino, a local vineyard that was absolutely quaint, good wine, performers... such a great trip.
The homeowners were responsive, helpful and wonderful to work with. Book your stay, you'll love it.

We loved our stay at the Alanson home. It was super clean. The neighborhood had a variety of homes and I wasn't comfortable letting my kids bike around alone with a house that looked very run down a few doors down.

My family and I stayed the week in preparation for our oldest daughter’s wedding. Love the area and proximity to so many places.
Very clean home and tucked away in a quiet corner within walking distance of downtown Alanson. Downstairs game room was a bonus between running around.

They place was very clean and open. There was plenty of blankets pillows and kitchen stuff. It looks just like the photos and is very comfortable.

This home is a real find in Alanson, MI. Located in a quiet neighborhood, this home provided us entertainment in watching the deer and wild turkeys coming from the magnificent forest of hardwoods just across the road. The home was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We rented so that we could come and go daily to Petoskey, It was ideal. for that purpose, being centrally located between some great Northern Michigan attractions for skiing, shopping,, and exploring the area. Jason and Marie were great to work with. They anticipated our needs to make our time there most enjoyable. It is a great place to stay.
