Phenomenal, as always!
This is our second stay at the cabin and it was just as great as the first. It is clean, stocked with everything you could have possibly forgotten or need, and the bed is the most comfortable Iā€™ve ever slept in. Maj-Lis is always an incredible host, and we look forward to returning!

Great Stay in Onaway
The cabin was beautiful. Clarke the Peacocke was entering and made multiple visits a day to see us. The location was perfect for what we wanted to do which was to sightsee in the area.

Great Getaway!
What a beautiful place to stay while we explored a part of Michigan we weren't familiar with. Beautiful country setting. Very clean with thoughtful amenities. It is located on a busy road, but traffic noise wasn't an issue during the night. We'd highly recommend!

Quiet getaway
Wonderful setting within range of all of the northern Michigan sites and trails. Travel to Mackinac City to see the Fort or go onto the Island, or see the many State Parks for hiking and shoreline town shopping. Close to the only Waterfalls in the lower peninsula, and also located close to Onaway park with metal art works by a local that will turn your head. Wonderful viewing of area wildlife and I recommend the stay.

Beautiful Weekend Getaway
My husband and I chose to stay here for our annual northern Michigan winter getaway weekend. The house was beautiful and was probably the cleanest home we have rented so far, which says a lot! The bed is kind of a memory foam - I loved it and he hated it, so it's just a personal preference. We explored Awakon Park, which has some neat sculptures scattered along some trails. Had a great dinner at Wood Winds Restaurant then enjoyed drinks and karaoke at Al's Onaway Bar. We had a great time relaxing for the weekend. I would go back in a heartbeat!

We were sooooo happy with the cabin. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The furnishings were beautiful, the outdoor area was perfect for mornings with coffee. The peacock was an absolute bonus! All in all, very nice property.

Relaxing Getaway near many lakes and trails
There is so much to do outdoors here! Situated in the NE lower peninsula, you can drive to the west or east shoreline in under an hour and Mackinac in 45min. Itā€™s also right down the road from Onaway State Park and Black Lake. We especially enjoyed Hoeft State park and Forty Mile Point lighthouse (30min drive). Onaway is a small town but has everything you need- a few restaurants, grocery store, outdoor store, speedway, and iron art park. I even found a rare Stephen King book at a little used book/record store there. The cabin is beautiful and so clean and comfortable. Maj-lis really provides everything- from TP to coffee- you are well stocked! I enjoyed cooking on the gas stove- such a treat, as I have an electric at home. Clark the peacock (we nicknamed him HeyHey) was one of the highlights of our stay! I did not expect him to be so friendly and tame! We loved relaxing on the large cabin porch and enjoying the views. The cabin is surrounded by corn fields and a garden of sunflowers and zinnias. The nights were cool (mid-July) and perfect for fires out back and star gazing. It was not quite as private as I had expected (renters to the right who we barely saw and a few visits from caretakers of the property), but we didnā€™t mind - we had the pleasure of meeting the owner and her father and they seem like the nicest people who put a lot of love into the property. They even provided a dog crate for us so we didnā€™t have to travel with ours. Thank you so much Maj-lis!

Darling Cabin
We enjoyed our stay and the upgrades in the darling cabin. We were disappointed, however, that there were so many acres advertised, but they were not manicured/mowed for walking. Just not useable for us which was one of the reasons for selecting this cabin. The host had most everything that one would need available. The views were very nice. Thanks for having us!!
