Another great stay in Big Bay!
This was my second trip staying at this home. The host is very responsive and pleasant to work with. The home is clean, cozy and is stocked with small amenities such as spices, antibiotic ointment, bug spray and recreation maps of the area. I visit Big Bay multiple times a year this is now the first place I check for availability!

Great weekend in Big Bay
We had a great weekend with family in the area. The location of the house was ideal, it’s in town but has a wooded rural setting. The town walking trails are a short walk from the house and it was fun just walking around town checking out the local history. We also found some deals at the church bazaar in town. The accommodations were very comfortable and clean.

Enjoyed our stay
We enjoyed this peaceful home! It was the perfect size for two adults and one toddler. There were family games to play along with a good sized yard to have fun in. There were several personal touches that made our arrival and stay very pleasant.

Wonderful place to stay and to see the Northern Lights!
This property was perfect for our company of three. It was well furnished with comfortable beds, sofa, and chairs. We really appreciated the washer and dryer since we had been on the road for several days. The roads to Marquette were excellent because shopped and ate there several times. Highly recommend it in part because we all had the Northern Lights on our Bucket Lists and went out in the cornfield across the street and saw a beautiful display around 11pm.

Great fall getaway in Big Bay
We loved our stay in Big Bay- the house was clean, in a good location, and was exactly as listed. This property is close to so many hiking trails and places to explore. We really appreciated the small touches in the house- brochures and info about the surrounding area, books about northern Michigan, and a kitchen well-equipped to cook in. We hope to stay there again sometime in the future!

Weekend get away
The cottage was adorable, very clean and well stocked with comfort items. The kids loved the the available tennis rackets to use at the near by courts. We had visitors whom also own VRBO, they were also very impressed. Big Bay has much to do, especially the beach nearby, bike trails, and hiking! We couldn’t do it all!

Cottage was well appointed and tastefully decorated. It was a wonderful place for some northern Michigan peace and quiet. Marquette as near by for great restaurants and entertainment.
