The house was clean, provided a lot of supplies that we needed for the multiple days we stayed, and was big enough for the family. The kids enjoyed getting out on the lake with the provided kayaks and life jackets. Perfect vacation!

House is good size for 5-6 person families. Very clean! King master bedroom and two double size beds were great for sleeping everyone, and living eoom futon was useful when someone snored (outcast bed)! Kitchen very functional. The trail down to the lake was muddy for the spring time part of the year, would be better in less rainy times. Overall, very functional with many amenities and very clean! Garage parking spot was awesome for overnights.

Spent time on the lake, relaxed around the house and vistited Mackinac Island as well as Mackinaw City. The location is perfect, providing some peace and quiet with lots of outdoor fun as well as touristy fun close by. The house was spacious and clean. And would highly recommend this place to anyone!

I loved this home. It was very clean and taken care of. Very good instruction book with other little tips about the hosue/surrounding amenities. When we got there, the next morning the shower didn’t work but the home owner didn’t waste any time and fixed it in SUCH A TIMELY MANNER!! We had plans to go to the island that day and this little hiccup didn’t even affect those plans because he was so timely and efficient. Such good people to work with. I recommend this place 100% and will be back if I am in the area again. Also the beds were super comfy!
The path to the lake was a bit rough and buggy, but the view of the lake was beautiful.

We loved our stay. The house was perfect and the kitchen was great. The path to the lake was a bit challenging but then again, two of our party were 87 yrs old! But the lake was very beautiful. The location was conveniently located for visits to Mackinac Island, Mackinaw City, St. Ignace and Petoskey. We definitely will try to visit again next fall!

This is a great house for a trip to Mackinac. It’s off the beaten path…but not too far. The lake near the house is beautiful itself. Our sons enjoyed kayaking, and we enjoyed sitting on the dock. Be sure to make the trip to Mackinac Island and rent bikes if you can. Easily one of the coolest things I’ve done in awhile!
5.0
A fantastic cabin escape less than a 10 minute drive to Mackinaw City. Incredibly cozy, ample supplies and room to roam and enjoy the outdoors. The lake is gorgeous and beautiful to sit there day or night to enjoy the sounds of nature. The host, Chris, was incredibly responsive. Absolutely recommend and hope to return next year.

Beautiful, Peaceful Home in the woods!
Great relaxing long weekend! Great location. Peaceful, beautiful, wooded setting. Just a short hike to paradise lake.

Beautiful and private!
We loved staying here! Chris was so quick to respond and the house was so cozy and clean. Everything we needed was supplied. The location was perfect and private.
My only critique would be that the trail to the lake was not so easy as I thought. It was a 3-5 peaceful minutes walk through the woods. There were wood planks placed on most of the trail, but these didn't lay flat and some moved when you walked on them. For anyone unsteady on their feet, they may need to be extra careful.

Wonderful place for a Mackinac getaway!
We were a group of 5 friends who make an annual trip and we loved this property. The house was very spacious and welcoming. It was a very short trip into town but you still felt very secluded at the house. Chris answered just a few questions we had quickly by text message. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Amazing location right outside the city
We stayed 6 nights at the house and Chris was a great host and responded to our texts the few times we had questions. Our family went fishing every morning and evening off the dock. We also enjoyed the use of the kayacks and swimming in the lake. The property is gorgeous and feels just secluded enough being less then 10 minutes down the road from the city. We enjoyed the two restaurants around the corner multiple times during the week. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Lovely home & peaceful location
This is a fabulous property for relaxing. The kayaks were a nice feature to enjoy the lake. Quiet lake! Home is clean and well stocked. Harbor Lights Cafe (just up the road) has excellent food! Was a nice treat and reasonable priced. Nice central location to many things!

Girls Weekend!!
This is the 2nd year we have rented this home and are planning on doing so next year. The home is very cozy and perfect for our 5 day "girls weekend". The location is great for us, as we are spread across the state, and the owner, Chris, is awesome to work with. We love this place!!

Peaceful
We stayed here with the intent of going to Mackinac Island and the various parks. The location is wonderful, and we loved having Harbor Lights Grille only a few minutes away. We loved our stay very much! Comfortable, clean, convenient, affordable, and all the comforts of home.

beautiful relaxing home away from home....
It was a very clean and lovely property. The house was great and had everything we needed. It is super close to lots of great sights and beautiful hiking. We hope we can come back again one day. It's right on the water and the walk down is through the woods and it was extra great. It is really a great spot.

Nice home in great location
Stayed at this nicely decorated home for a ladies mini vacation. Comfortable beds and furnishings. Great location just south of Mackinaw City. We also were pleased how easy it was to get to Wilderness State Park. The path through the woods down to the lake was further than we had visioned and not an easy walk. Had rain nightly so path was very mushy. Once at the lake it was beautiful!

Nice comfortable getaway
This house was perfect for our family. Very clean with nice decor. Fully stocked kitchen with Keurig coffee maker had everything we needed. It was great to have A/C in the bedrooms since we went in July. House is surrounded by woods with a short path down to the lake. Bring bug spray as there were a lot of mosquitos. Our kids loved the lake and kayaking and row boating. House is only 8 min drive to ferry docks to go to Mackinac Island. We had a great trip! Thank you!

Long weekend get away
The house was really nice and a short distance from everything we wanted to see. Very quiet and we were able to take advantage of the lake as well. Very relaxing which is what we were looking for. Would for sure stay here again

Great Vacation
The entire rental experience with Chris was very easy and the home was exactly as listed and expected. Parking in the garage is a perk, as is use of the washer/dryer. The location feels isolated but is also very convenient to Mackinaw City. The kids enjoyed the kayaks, row boat and fishing. We definitely would recommend stayng here!

This place was awesome. Had plenty to do on property and close to everywhere we wanted to go.
Great.
