A cozy little getaway
This place was exactly as advertised and exactly what I needed for my weekend away. I really enjoyed the bucolic setting on the farm, and it was perfectly situated for all of the little trips I wanted to take. The building is charming, it’s nice to see the cows and the chickens and the cat outside. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this spot

Excellent place to stay!
My boyfriend came in from Massachusetts and we booked this to stay for the weekend. What a great place! It was quaint and quiet, very relaxing and offered a place to unwind from the world. We enjoyed being television free and spent our nights playing games and cards. Would definitely book again!

Perfect central location!
We loved the tiny farmhouse! (I want one!). The owners are very gracious, and the stay was perfect for us to visit local family and enjoy a central location in northern Michigan! A quiet country location close to area sights and activities. I grew up in northern Michigan, and highly recommend if you are traveling between Petoskey, Harbor Springs and Mackinaw City!!

Lovely Cottage
The cottage was clean and every amenity was thought of. The wi-fi was out due to a lightning strike, but we spent so much time away on the lakes that it was a non-issue. We enjoyed meeting the hosts and would absolutely recommend this place!

Loved the cottage and its charm. Hosts were very respectful of privacy. A bit close to the main house but again, the hosts made that a non-issue. Thank you and the cottage small will remain on our list for future visits!

Well stocked cottage with everything you need for a getaway weekend for 2. Quiet and picturesque property. Could have used a blind instead of just a sheer on the door since the bedroom is at the bottom of the stairs.

Happiest Little Home Away From Home
The home was just as advertised in the notes and pictures (super cute!). The location was close to Mackinaw City as well as Petosky, and the town itself was cute. Perfect getaway for a single person or a couple. Enough amenities to get you through each day and a nice place to come back to for relaxation and sleep. The hosts were extremely friendly and met me on my first night there. They also saw me when I left, and were very kind throughout my entire trip. I will definitely return!

Cozy cabin.
Cabin was very cute. Problem we had was we are over 65 and have mobility issues. Did not realize bedroom was down a fairly steep set of stairs. Had to make sure didnt make many trips downstairs. Area was beautiful and quiet. Just what we were looking for.

Needs more pictures and descriptions of the listing.
The cottage had an odor. More pictures of the listing would have been helpful to show the size of the shower- extremely small and the bedroom in the basement. The mattress was very uncomfortable. Sofa was small and not comfortable for two people to sit on. Overall defiantly not worth the money paid.

Quiet Weekend
This was the perfect place for my partner and I to enjoy a weekend away in Northern Michigan. We spent one day on Mackinac Island, which was easy to get to from this location. Cute small cottage feel but with all the amenities you could want for a few days vacation.
