Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sameer a. 3 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place for a big family gathering Great place. Clean, well-decorated, nicely laid out, tons of space, wonderful location close to some great things in Au Train (kayaking the Au Train river was the highlight of the trip for us) and close to Pictured Rocks. Perfect! The only reason I didn't give this place a 5\* is because they don't supply towels. With most of the family coming in from Texas and New Mexico, it was a pain to pack bath and hand towels and wash cloths for 12 people. And then when we left, the folks who showered in the morning had wet towels to deal with. If you're driving in from Michigan, this is likely not a big deal.... Other than that, my, this place is AWESOME and I would come back to it. Oh, one more thing... at night, walk out of the house, and look up! I saw as many stars, shooting stars, and the milky way galaxy as I did in Bryce Canyon National park. That's saying something! ##### Sameer a. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Marlon R. 12 Oct 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Very nice location and spacious house, but needs better cleaning Jason came over promptly for a small problem we were having and was very polite and kind. The game room upstairs was cool too! The house could have been better cleaned. Mold in the full bathrooms on the walls and very dirty shower curtains. The upstairs bathroom had a big mold stop and you are just looking at it the entire time you're showing and the shower is tinny too. At the time of this review there are no pictures of the inside of the showers on the vrbo site and that should have been an indicator that something was not right. The pots were dirty in kitchen under the cabinet. This is from my friends: Rips in leather couch was covered up. Refrigerator was dirty and had to be cleaned. Lights not working in kitchen. Light fixture in upstairs bathroom falling out of ceiling. Mold on shower curtains and in shower area. There was no instructions for cleaning up in the listing and we payed a lot in cleaning fees. So we took out the trash loaded up the dish washer and left promptly. If these things are addressed then this will be a top notch place enjoy while staying in the UP. ##### Marlon R.

This year we had a group of 18 guys. Ages 24 to 64. There was more than enough room for all of us, and the included amenities were exactly what we were looking for. More than enough parking for three large trucks and trailers ##### jake h.

It's an easy walk to the beach, convenience store, and ice cream & pastie shop. The property is large enough to support common gathering and eating. There is also a bonus room upstairs if you feel the need to get away. Everyone had a space to call their own and felt comfortable. If you go in the summer, take fans. There are 2 window AC units but fans were nice for sleeping. I did alert the property manager of some missing and damaged screens. They assured me those would be addressed for future guests' comfort. If I return to the area, I would rent this property again. Responses to my communication attempts through the VRBO messaging system were limited, but when I called the property manager directly, she was always professional and helpful. ##### Kathy W.

All 12 of us were in awe. The pictures do not do this Lodge justice. We got out and headed in, and the only thing I could say was wow. It was so nice and warm, clean and felt like our own home. The kids ranging in age of 9 yrs old to 22 years old ran through claiming beds, rooms, and where they were chilling at in the AWESOME game room. The 4 adults gelt at peace knowing that there was space and fun for each person with this home. It was crazy what this little trip staying in this home did. Not one time did anyone bicker lol we laughed and hiked the Munising Ice Curtain and Eben Ice Cave. We ate From the local pizza shop (excellent by the way) and had board game night by the fire. We have Already spoke of making this our anual trip! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!! ##### Melynie C.
