Very comfortable and great amenities, and dog friendly! We loved the trails on the 50 acres behind the house, beautiful field and wooded property. We were so fortunate that the snow came just before we got there and were able to X-country ski on the property as well as enjoy snowboarding at Boyne and Nubs Nob. Close to Boyne City and Petoskey for restaurants. Lovely winter getaway! ##### Carly F.

This house was soooo nice. Insanely spacious and such a nicely furnished and re-done home. The only one small negative is the sheets seemed old and very used. They felt like they had sand on them (I think just from many washes and use). Other than that, great stay! ##### Rachel C.

We spent time in Traverse City, Charlevoix and Petoskey. We arrived after visiting Grand Haven, Holland and Sleeping Bear Dunes. We headed to Mackinac Island and the UP after our stay. The kitchen was stocked with many basics that we were able to stay in and cook some meals. We visited the beach one day and the house had beach towels and chairs available for us to use. We also explored the trails behind the house in the morning before heading to the beach. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this house. ##### Beth G.

It's a stunning farmhouse renovation! very tasteful. Plenty of space for us 3 +1 ( small dog, who struggled with the open staircase).

Plenty of walking, skiing, snowshoeing trails close by. Recommended for all seasons. The kitchen has all the necessities. Five stars all around! ##### Martina A. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Erin A., Scottsdale, AZ 28 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent Location The location of this property is great for hitting Petoskey, Charlevoix, and Boyne City as well as many lakes. It has plenty of outdoor space to enjoy and this is really the best part of the property. The inside has been nicely redone. Positives: Clean Outdoor space Nice fixtures in the house The nook upstairs with bunk beds The four-star rating is due to: Outdoor lights not working Outdoor grill is old and not working Ice maker not working in the fridge/freezer Beds are very squeaky Very limited staples like toilet paper and trash bags A little short on dish ware. Ex. If you drink coffee everyday, you will be washing dishes before the week is over. We let them know about the lights not working and not having any trash bags. We did get an apology for the trash bags, however, there wasn’t any attempt to change those issues. This is a solid four-star property. If we lived in-state and we’re looking for a weekend getaway, it would be great. ##### Erin A. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022
