Perfect, cozy place for a couple days. Everything was as described. It was clean, stocked well and the outdoor porch area is wonderful with the lights,

A most enjoyable stay. Wish we could have stayed longer.
This was our second time staying in this quaint little cabin in the woods. It was just how we remembered it from two years ago. Perfect little place for a couple spending time in the straights area. The hosts truly have thought about every little thing! 10/10
Such a cozy stay! It was the perfect size for just my husband & I! The hosts were super hospitable and the place was very clean! We loved our stay through & through :)
Very cute and cozy! Was a nice little stay and liked that it was off the beaten path. Will definitely stay here again when we come back up to michigan. Thanks for having us!
A most enjoyable stay. Pleasantly surprised by the roominess and the cleanliness. A very nice location close to Cheboygan. Very nicely landscaped and decorated so you fell comfortable.
The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed for a most comfortable stay. We didn't spend any time around a fire outside but the set up out there was amazing; hanging lights and even solar tiki torches!! We'd defnitely stay here again :)
From the minute you walk in, you feel like you are home! Such a great cabin. Surrounded by nature, you can't help but totally unwind and become stress free! Will definitely return.
So many great things to say! Responsive owners, sparkling clean, adorably decorated and the world’s softest bed! Cute and cozy with all the amenities. Quick drive to downtown Cheboygan restaurants and pubs, and easy access to Mackinac Island.
Arrived late at night, they have lights down the path that are motion activated which was a great touch. Very cute and clean cabin to stay in, I would recommend staying here. I’d rate it 10 stars if I could!
This small space has so much to offer. It's perfect for one person or a couple and, it is the cleanest, best decorated places I've ever stayed. It's close to to lots of stuff, or a great option while traveling to the UP.
We really enjoyed our stay at this cozy little cottage and the accommodations were exceptional! Definitely recommend this for anyone that likes a little rustic charm mixed with modern amenities. The cabin was very well decorated and exceptionally clean. Hats off to the hosts for a great experience!
We had a wonderful time and the cabin was well stocked and comfy. Our 8yr old grandson said he had a good time as well. We would definitely like to return in the future.
The wife and I were looking for a cute place to stay for the night on our way home and this little house could not have been more perfect. Beautifully decorated, well thought out, it made for a comfortable and quiet stay. Everything you could need is here wrapped up in a tiny package.
Had a busy weekend with lots of family activities, this cabin was the perfect place to end the night, and get peace and quiet. Very clean, cozy, and comfy with an awesome ambiance with the outdoor lighting. Can’t wait to stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean, quiet, and cozy. Definitely a two person cabin. Nice location close to Cheboyban. Being a city boy, I wished the road was paved.
This property was perfect for the two of us. It was very clean, had the extras that you don't expect and was decorated nicely. The location lended itself to a quiet area. We truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for doing a nice job with this rental.
This was just perfect for us after a long ride on the local bike trail. Easy to find and just so beautiful. They thought of everything and packed a lot into a small space.
I booked the cabin for a short weekend stay in Cheboygan. The cabin was a very good accommodation for myself and would have been comfortable for two people. The cabin is new and in very good condition. There is also a cozy outdoor area next to the cabin for meals and a campfire.
