    Lots of cobb webs and dust in most rooms. Unable to enjoy the deck or hot tube as the mosquitos were too bad even during the day. Steps to the cabin are very slanted and not very safe. Everything you need in the kitchen was provided. Everything worked as it should in the entire cabin. View was very nice from the deck.

    Enjoyed a quick trip/stay at this cute little cabin. We were able to fish from the dock (and other local spots), relax in the hot tub, and enjoy the spectacular view of nature. Dorene & John had everything you would need there and more. We ate at the Wigwam (right down the road) which had excellent pizza. 10/10 recommend.

    Pictures were actually worse than the property looked in real life. Wonderful cabin stocked full of all the amenities and thoughtful adds. A shed full of accessories for boating. Several kayaks and a water cycle were included. Complete peace and quiet on the river every night. Relaxing in the hot tub under the stars was unforgettable. The ONLY complaint is how hard the water is, how it smells like sulfur. A home filtration system would be an amazing addition and pay dividends in satisfaction.

    We had a great stay at The River’s Edge. Cabin was exactly as pictured and had everything needed to make our vacation awesome. Location was great, close to Mackinac City, Petoskey and Cheboygan. Enjoyed Indian River also as well as Burt Lake Brewery. We would stay there again!

    The house was great! Perfect size for us and we loved being able to see the boats pass by on the river from the couch. We appreciated the nice set of dishes...especially the perfect coffee cups! Our dog really enjoyed the fenced in yard and the ability to run in to cool off whenever he wanted. Such a relaxing week! Dorene and John were an incredible pleasure to work with. Very accommodating and helpful, I wish all property managers had this approach.
