★ Get Lost In The Woods At Big Star Lake ★

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin. It was far off the road with ample parking. We brought our pup and was perfect to introduce him to the woods. My wife appreciated how well the cabin was equipped. Everything you need. Bring your own propane, but knew that. Prefect spot for us and will definitely stay again.

A cute little house secluded in the woods; it feels like you’re stepping into another world! A good use of space and a well-stocked kitchen. My husband and I spent the days at a family home on the lake with the rest of my family but spent the nights here, which worked great. It’s in the middle of the woods, so make sure you keep the lights off in the evening and at night, especially when opening the doors—lots of bugs!

Overall the property is quite nice and tucked away in a private drive. With that being said there were several things that dampened our stay. In understand keeping an eye on your property but the amount of outdoor cameras made us feel a bit uneasy. We were really looking forward to the availability of the outdoor shower until we saw the camera pointed in the general region of where the shower was. I did not agree with one being there at all. The second issue was the grill. We went to go use it for dinner and found that the tank was completely empty. On top of that you could tell the grill majorly needed a cleaning, It was gross. We were very disappointed that something as simple as checking the propane tank wasn't done. Even though it had on/off rained at the property we still had hopes of a fire until we saw that the entirety of firewood was open and completely exposed to the elements. Kind of silly that there wasn't any in a bin, storage etc. The coffee machine that was available also has been sitting for some time and needs a descale run through it bad. All the coffee we put through it tasted awful. There were also no ziplock bags or anything similar to put food away. Found that weird as its a normal thing to furnish. Shower water also smelt so strong of sulfur. We understand its hard water but its to a level that almost makes you gag. With all being said we ended up cutting our trip short and heading home. At least we know we won't be coming back to this proptery.

Beautiful property, comfortable cabin, well stocked with supplies, convenient location. I wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

Jordo’s place was great! My wife and I wanted to get away for a few days with our dog and 1 year old and each one of us really enjoyed our time! The cabin feels very safe and secluded. We enjoyed the little walking trails around the property and loved sitting around the fire pit. We did not check out the nearby beach because it was not dog friendly but have read wonderful things about it from other reviews. The place was also very clean and well stocked with essentials for daily living. Would love to stay again in the future!

Great private location. Cabin was clean and well organized. Owner was great to communicate with.

Retreat was what we needed and exactly what we found. I hesitate to give such glowing reviews of this gem for fear that the next time I want to visit it will be booked solid! If you need a place to escape, this is the place.

This cabin was so charming and cozy. The pictures don’t do it justice. It has everything you could possibly need! We have a 5yr old, 3yr old and 20mo old and they had a blast playing on the tire swing and exploring the trails. We went hiking off the 76th street Manistee National Forest trail head and it was beautiful! We also went to Bayak beach which was easy to find and were the only ones there for quite some time! It was a clean beach with great water! The host was amazing with communication, such a pleasure to talk to. We will definitely keep this place on our list to revisit.

Nice 2 bedroom cabin. Very clean with comfortable living room area. Would stay here again.

We had a peaceful, private, and comfortable stay here. It was a welcome change from the crowds and noise on the lakefront. We particularly enjoyed the early morning visit from a raccoon who walked up on the front porch and looked in through the door at us!
