Our family was surprised to find several bats flying around the screened-in porch (which is connected to the main floor living room and kitchen area) during the first hours of our stay. We packed up and rented rooms at another local hotel that evening. Phil acknowledged the bat issue and apologized for the inconvenience, and he was working to fix the bat problem the morning after we reported the issue. He refunded the money he received from our rental. The cabin is very nice and located in a great location. Phil was very responsive and promptly attempted to remedy the bat issue, both by agreeing to refund our payments and take measures to prevent bats from infiltrating the cabin in the future. This would have been a great place to stay during our vacation, except for the bats.

Cabin was very well supplied--was helpful to find paper products and cleaning supplies along with a well stocked kitchen. Phil answered all questions almost immediately from inquiries pre-booking through our stay. The house is truly a cabin in the woods with that outdoorsy, rustic feel. We were there through a period of exceptionally hot weather and, while nights in the area are typically cool, it was not the case July 2024! The house, like most in the area, has no AC. When we asked Phil for some fans to bring some relief, he appeared within the hour with two brand new box fans which were most appreciated. Thanks Phil!

I felt a little misled about the "4 bedrooms". There are 2 bedrooms. I don't think futons should count as beds for adults, especially in open spaces. I would adjust listing to avoid bad reviews because the place is very sweet with a great property and location.

The cabin is gorgeous. Inside had everything you needed to cook and eat in. Outside had trails and a beaver dam my kids loved. Very close to sleeping bear dunes, empire beach and riverside canoe rental! We will definitely be back!

Advertised as a 4 bedroom. Reality, 2 bedrooms and futons in livingroom and loft. Futons were very uncomfortable and old. Pillows were flat, hard dirty snd old. Not one comfortable seat in the house. Mice in masterbedroom, a bat on the porch. No window treatments so you get up at sunrise. It was miserable.

The property is lovely, very private and quiet, and great location for enjoying the dunes. I left my dog at home but this would be a perfect place for pups. Firewood is provided and there is a great screen porch to hang out in if you get a rainy day. Only downside is that there are really only 2 bedrooms. A futon in an open loft and another in the living room do not equal bedrooms. That said, I slept on the futon in the living room and it was very comfy.

Phil made us feel welcome and worked with us to try to rebook as the rest of our family were ill and not able to come up . Although we were sad to not have the kids enjoyed our time in this special home. Wildlife is served included beavers, deer, owls, many birds, and a neighborhood bear! Thank you Lavendar’s and we hope to return with our children and grandchildren!

We had an excellent stay at the Lavenders' home! The cabin was clean and well-appointed with everything we needed. We loved the screened in porch and fire pit, and the fact that we saw a bear lumbering by in the road one morning. Our dogs loved running around the yard and playing in the creek. It was remote, but with easy access to all sorts of things - we went tubing on the Lower Platte, played at Sleeping Bear Dunes, and spent a couple rainy hours at Cognition in nearby Empire. Phil was very responsive to our questions, and we felt very welcome.

The cabin and property are as described. We had a great stay here for a few days. It was a great respite as we travelled from place to place checking out the peninsula. The kids loved all of the wildlife including the hummingbirds and hearing the owls at night. We made many memories here in just the short time we were here. Would definitely recommend!

My family & I had a wonderful stay! The location’s proximity to all our activities (kayaking on the Platte River, biking the Heritage Trail, visiting Sleeping Bear Dune, boating on Glen Lake, going to Esch Beach) was perfect. The property itself is located on a wooded lot with trails of its own, witch were fun to explore and the house was a comfortable place to rest between activities. We especially love the screened in porch! Thank you, Lavenders for helping to make our MI stay so fantastic!

Just a few minutes south of Empire and right across from Little Platte Lake is this great vacation rental! It’s nice and private and a beautiful property that is easy to get to, not far off M-22. The pictures really don’t do it justice as it is well laid out and much more like a beautiful log home than a cabin. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable and the sleeping/TV loft upstairs looks really nice. The bathrooms and showers are great as well, The kitchen has all of the basics you need along with a small dining table. There is a screened in porch off of the living area and it offers a lot of additional room and larger dining table. The WiFi worked well and the TVs had Satellite with lots of available viewing options. The only improvements could be a little more seating in the living area for larger groups and a more comfortable couch. There were only two of us and our dog so it worked well for us and the couch converts to provide additional sleeping so it makes sense. The property was great for our dog as well. We will definitely look to rent here again when in the area.

Nice property, very clean but a bit smaller than we anticipated. The pros are great location, nice décor, clean and well managed. Cons are lack of air conditioning (although there are fans in every room) and small dining table inside (large table in screened-in porch). But the owner was very responsive and helpful. We would recommend this property.

We were pleasantly surprised by the newness and cleanliness of the cabin. It felt like a welcoming home, and we were very comfortable. However, being that our 4 teenagers are are mostly grown, it was better suited for the 6 of us, (not 8). We loved how secluded into the woods and how close we were to M22. We made a lot of wonderful memories as a new, blended step-family. I am proud that my new step-children will be sporting new M22 shirts to school next week!
