Stayed Aug 28, 2025We had a wonderful stay! This property is tucked way back in the woods with views of a beautiful meadow. We enjoyed lots of excursions and outdoor adventures. There are so many trails and beaches a short drive away. Very comfortable accommodations, beautiful artwork and the outdoor shower was a hit with the kids. We’d love to stay here again.

Stayed Jul 19, 2025We loved the tranquil setting, the beauty of the home, the great kitchen and, of course, the outdoor shower. Being an octogenarian, I've returned exhausted but most importantly my daughters, grandson and nieces and the entire family had a super time and break from their hectic lives.

Stayed Jul 5, 2025We just love this house and how serene the property is. The fire pit was wonderful to sit around each evening. The outdoor shower is just amazing! The kiddos had so much fun playing games at the picnic tables in the outside buildings. They also had so much fun playing ping pong in the basement. We will definitely return.

Stayed Jul 13, 2024This was our second time staying here and it was absolutely wonderful. The kids loved the outdoor shower and we loved the bonfire and outside space. We look forward to returning.

Stayed Jun 23, 2024I have stayed at a large number of vacation rentals, and this is definitely among my very favorite! The house was truly spotless - the single most important thing to me! The layout was perfect, everything you could want was available. I particularly loved that there was no TV in the main living area - it was in a separate room nearby with a door that closed! My daughter, two grandsons (4 and 7) and I really loved the remote location - but within 10 minutes or so of everywhere we wanted to go! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Stayed Jun 29, 2024The house was adorable! Completely equipped, in a beautiful setting. Very private. It is a little out of town (down a dirt road) but that wasn’t a problem as Glen Arbor and Empire are both easy to get to. Also lots of recreational equipment is already there! We loved it.

Stayed Jul 15, 2023The house was beautiful, clean, and just as listed. The secluded location was perfect for us, near Crystal River kayaking, Glen Lake, Torch Lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City and Old Mission Peninsula. The cool breeze at night through the open windows was wonderful. We loved the fire pit and there were plenty of places nearby selling bundles of firewood. The outdoor shower was loved by all. We will definitely be returning.

Stayed Jul 8, 2023Our stay can be summarized by the fact that as we all gather for an annual vacation, we have a list of movies etc we intend to watch. This year the tv did not go on as we found sitting and watching the light change through the landscape too peaceful to put a movie on. The house and property are isolated but very close and easily accessible to dunes, restaurants, trails etc. I think the only ‘negative’ was the internet can be spotty at times, but unless you need to work from the house, might be a good thing! Not enough of an issue to take away any ratings points. With certainty, we have added this house and area to our rotating vacation locale. Wonderful.
