    Really enjoyed our stay here. Kitchen was equipped with anything you would need. Home was clean and welcoming. Really enjoyed the screened in porch even on the cool rainy days. Also enjoyed siiting on the swing overlooking the Betsie river.

    You've heard of the 4C's with diamonds.. these are the 4C's of Sharon's VRBO on The Betsie: Clean, Comfortable, Cute, Charming.Having coffee on the screened in porch was magical. We would highly recommend vacationing here. Even the dog loved it!

    It’s a bit like staying at your grandma’s house. Lots of interesting things to look at. One could prepare gourmet meals or simple ones as the kitchen had all kinds of pots, pans, dishes and glassware. The cabin could be stuffy on hot damp days, but an airconditioner helped.We loved the setting of woods, wild flowers, trees, river and stream .

    Stayed for 15 nights with my fiance and dog. Cute property and the river along the back of the property was very nice and convenient. Loved the screened room that looked out to the river. The property location was fantastic as everywhere we wanted to go was about equal distance away and not too far. We really did not want to leave at the end of our stay. We would definitely come back! We had a blast!

    We had a great time! Sitting on the swing overlooking the river with the sound of the creek drinking our coffee every morning was just what the doctor ordered! We went on adventures that were all day trips or just relaxed! Great stay to reset yourself! Thanks for a great opportunity, Sharon!
