Spacious, comfortable, tucked away home in a prime location in Leelanau County. The hosts thought of everything to make our stay feel like home. They were excellent communicators throughout our stay resolving any minor glitch in a timely manner. We would highly recommend this rental.
House was wonderful. Fit our family perfectly. House is well stocked with everything you would need. Our host was perfect. Any communication was responded comfortably quick. Suggestions for restaurant's were satisfactory.If we visit again, definitely will contact.our host.
While our stay was short it was also equally as sweet. We travel for work and found this beautiful VRBO nestled in the woods, making our trip up north like a mini vacation.
One of the best places to stay in Northern Michigan/ Sleeping Bear Dunes area. Tricia was a great host and made our stay comfortable and any issues we had she was super responsive. Great kitchen with lots of gadgets to cook great meals with. Beds were comfortable and the wood fired stove made for cozy mornings in. Location is great. Will definitely be coming back!
This is a nice family getaway property. It has a wonderful outdoor area with a fire pit & plenty of firewood. We used it almost every night during our 2-week stay! We also enjoyed watching the deer in the yard on many mornings. You have everything you need for your stay, although for us, there was too much (kitchen & bath cabinets were packed full, as well as book shelves, etc.). For a short stay, this might be okay for some, but for us it was not ideal. As a host, Tricia is very accessible & responsive.
We had a great stay here! Tricia’s spot was beautiful, comfortable and cozy. Had every amenity we could ask for. We can’t wait to hopefully return soon!
My family loved our stay at this home for a couple nights while exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes. Very private setting, and the kids loved looking for frogs and fish in the koi pond. Thanks for a great stay, would highly recommend!
We had an amazing stay here in Maple City. It was a secluded, quiet location with an amazing fire pit and gathering area. There's plenty of room for all of us. The hosts are super friendly and willing to help out if you need anything. We loved the place and would stay again if we're ever in the area! Highly recommend!
This was the perfect home base for our family. A short drive to exploring the dunes and leelanau peninsula. Tricia gave us excellent recommendations for where to go and what to do to make the most of our time. Everything was comfortable and clean. Would definitely recommend!
This place feels like home. Great place to stay if you enjoy peace and quiet in northern Michigan. Short easy drive to many, many things to do! Very clean, very comfortable.
The location was gorgeous, the home was clean & comfortable. Tricia was very responsive. She has thought of everything from cozy blankets, kitchen needs, menus & attraction information.
Michigan is absolutely gorgeous in the Fall & Tricia’s location is so peaceful. I would wholeheartedly recommend staying here !!!!
Lovely secluded and tranquil property but easy access to everywhere.
Completely kitted out kitchen and a great space to chill out with friends or family.
To be honest, it would work better for a family than couples or friends as the 3 sleeping areas are not similar at all, but it is a lovely house and suited our needs perfectly.
