Relaxing multi-family getaway
We had three middle-aged siblings, their spouses, and mostly young adult children/cousins (17-26, one 13 year old), totaling 11. The house is beautiful, large fully equipped kitchen with many nice-to-haves in addition to the basics like insulated coffee carafe, muffin tin, etc, and a second fridge in the entry way! Beds were comfortable, rooms were a little tight for the number of young adults (they were all in the bunk beds/sofa bed, probably would have been better for three or fewer couples with younger kids, but worked fine for our group -- 13 can definitely be accommodated but ideally 5-7 of those are 15 and under). Bathrooms were clean and plentiful. Shared spaces -- living room w/TV, big table to gather round next to open plan kitchen, pool table area, porch balcony -- were all comfortable and spacious. Outdoor grill and fire pit area was amazing, as was the view of wildflowers, birds, deer, kayaking on the river and walking in the woods, stargazing. Also loved hearing about the local specialty butchers in Rogers City and Alpena -- Plath's smoked pork chops were AMAZING. Cell service was spotty at best, but WiFi was great. Highly recommend.
