This is a darling house. It has all the amenities needed for a great stay. It’s super close to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. Our family had a great time at the park, then come back to a wonderful place where they could spread out and rest from all the climbing. I would stay again in a heartbeat. Additionally, Gary the owner was very helpful and responsive. Excellent stay!

We came to visit the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. We brought bikes with us and enjoyed several wonderful days. The cabin is spacious, well-maintained and very comfortable for a family of 4. It is attractive and quiet, a bit off the beaten path but central to the three main park areas. It has a lovely hike on the property.
