    We enjoyed our two weeks at charming Heins Haven on The Betsie River. The cabin is very comfortable and the attention to detail was much appreciated. The hosts have anticipated almost every need for guests. The river is beautiful and we enjoyed watching the variety of birds and wildlife while sipping coffee on the patio.

    My wife and I spent a week at the cabin with our dog. All of us found it a delightful place in every way. Even though there are neighbors nearby, the property feels secluded with lots of privacy. The surrounding trees make for a blanket of quiet and a great place to watch a wide range of birds. We enjoyed hiking nearby in the Arcadia Preserve near Lake Michigan, traveling up M22 to some favorite spots, and visiting IronFish. The whole place is as-advertised and matches the many previous 5-star reviews. We are so glad we had the chance to enjoy it.

    Heins Haven was the perfect place for our family. The cabin had everything we needed for a peaceful and relaxing vacation. The owners even have little extras including a welcome snack basket, binder with list of surrounding activities and restaraunts, and soaps and lotions. We enjoyed each morning in the sun room watching the birds and after a day of exploring we ended our day with a cookout on the back patio. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property!

    We had a wonderful stay! The Heins home was centrally located to many local attractions without the hustle and bustle of TC. Iron Fish distillary was right up the road and a fun spot. St Ambrose Cellers was also a great spot and close. Frankfort had a wonderful farmers market and many shops and resturants. We also hiked the Treat Fram Trail. The home was clean and cozy. Loved the sun room!
