Weekend getaway
We absolutely loved the property and cabin. Very relaxing. The only negative part out of our entire weekend was the beds were the most uncomfortable beds I’ve ever slept on. We tried the pullout bed even but it was still hard as a rock just like the upstairs one. We would love to come back but hopefully there will be a different mattress available.

Remote Cottage Get-away
This cottage is everything the listing says it is. Very quaint, very remote. However, the bed was not overly comfortable. The sheets and bedding were something I'd expect to find in a cheap roadside motel, so very disappointing. If they added a few more cozy elements to this adorable retreat, it would be a prefect little getaway.

Relaxing Atmosphere
This cottage was a perfect size for my husband, 3 year old, and myself. The atmosphere of the location could not have been more relaxing. It was enjoyable to sit on the deck and listen to the babbling brook and our daughter loved the bridge. The neighbors (down the road) were very friendly when they helped us remove a tree that had fallen on the road one morning. The Arcadia area was somewhat remote, but close enough to get to everywhere we wanted to visit, including the Sleeping Bear Lakeshore. We did enjoy the little beach right in Arcadia, too. The only parts we were dissatisfied with were the amount of mouse traps/poison just sitting around on the floors (not great with a toddler around), the odor of the well water, lack of cell service (AT&T), and the lack of a vacuum. If you are used to being at a cottage/camp or in the woods these aren’t deal breakers. We also couldn’t figure out the lock box in the back, but I’m sure it was just our user error. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would gladly stay again.

What You See is What you Get
This is a lovely place. I could easily have stayed another week or two. Five minutes from the Bluffs course and only 10 from the south. The Bed was comfortable, the water hot and the surroundings peaceful. Slept with the Window open to hear the sound of the babbling brook out back. Whoever I am in the area, this will be my go to rental.

Cozy tiny cabin with the most enchanting atmosphere. We didn't want to leave the back deck that offered sunshine, greenery, and a personal babbling brook. We came up for a trip away from the kids and left with plans to bring them with us next time.

BEWARE OF ROADWORK
When we first arrived at the property we were very happy. Nice quiet brook in the backyard, peaceful and secluded. Unfortunately the peace did not last long. First thing in the morning road work began and all we heard was trucks and beeps. We reached out to the property to see if we could move and they would not help. The noise went on every morning. Management just kept saying they were sorry and there was nothing they could do. NO change in location, no discount on stay, they offered nothing. Very disappointing as the main reason we booked this location was to get away from noise and people.

Cozy cottage
This was a clean and nicely furnished cottage just right for a couple. We really liked the loft design for the bedroom although it requires going downstairs if you get up during the night to go to the bathroom. The location isn't exactly lakeside as it's 2 miles from Lake Michigan. But it was a quick and easy drive to Arcadia beach. The lot is cool and shady with a trickling stream running through the back yard and a nice wooden deck on which to relax. Highly recommend it!

Highly recommended! VERY clean. We would return with out a doubt!
Highly recommended!! Beautiful location, we actually saw a momma deer and her very newborn baby outside of our window while having coffee. The property was clean and I mean clean. Like my Grandma worked there and tucked us in. Fresh clean. Grout clean, clean. The location was ideal for visiting all of the major spots, the Arcadia wildlife is in your backyard and Traverse City is about an hour away. Frankfort and the Sleeping Bear Dunes were even closer and we visited it all. We celebrated my husband's 51st birthday and our 25th anniversary the week we stayed and it was heaven. This property met and exceeded our expectations and we would come back in a heartbeat!

30th anniversary
Such a clean quaint cottage in a beautiful quiet location with all the modern comforts of home. We enjoyed eating our breakfast and lunch on the deck while listening to the creek flowing by. There were so many great walking trails nearby. We hiked on 3 of the CS Mott trails. If you want a finer dining experience and price is not an obstacle, we recommend The Glenwood on Portage Lake in Onekema. Great food and a more refined but very relaxed atmosphere. This rental and the area have much to offer. Thanks to owners who offer their beautifully finished cottage for others to enjoy!

Loved the serene location, back deck and brook behind the home. The quiet dirt road was fun to ride our e-bikes on. No people or vehicles! The house is cute. Bed very comfortable. We would have preferred a more modern decor. The deer mounts, brass light fixtures and country style were not appealing. The fireplace did not work, even after following directions.

It is a lovely gem of a home, so clean and well cared for, somewhat remote, with a beautiful deck on a creek. It was about 1 1/2 miles to Arcadia and Lake MI, and not far to Bear Lake and Manistee south or to Beulah and Crystal Lake north. We totally enjoyed our week there and were grateful for this respite time.

Perfection.
Honestly, I've never stayed at a better VRBO/Vacasa home ever. EVER. This place is cozy, immaculately clean, and in the quietest location. Oh, and the wifi was flawless! We were able to stream TV and had no problem connecting to the "real world" The stream in the backyard is what absolutely makes this place a dream come true. The only, and I mean only issue we had was that some of the burners on the stove didn't work. No big deal, we just used the others. The gas fireplace made the room cozy, we used it all the time. We loved it so much that the 5 nights we were there we only left twice. It was the perfect escape. I highly recommend, this is our 2nd time at Cedar Nook and we WILL be back again.
