"I didn’t know that there wasn’t an elevator. Although I am handicapped, I usually just get a regular room. I would have requested an accessible room, or at least one on the first floor, had I known. Also, most rooms, even if they aren’t handicapped accessible, have a grab bar or something to hold on to in the shower. This room did not. Again, I know I didn’t request a handicapped room, I just wish I had known about these things (mostly the no elevator) before hand. With all that being said, the room was clean, the bed comfortable, and there were plenty of pillows and towels. We had no other issues with the room or the whole facility!"

"Beautiful location and history"

"Clean, updated value property. Convenient location. Friendly service. Microwave and fridge in room, but no coffee pot. Have to get dressed and go to lobby for a cup of coffee. "

"Very helpful staff. Nice pool area."

"Great location "

"Great peaceful getaway! Great owners!"

"Spotless! Large kitchen, lots of seating. Lower floor is extremely spacious with a huge shower and new washer/dryer. Great deck overlooking large yard. Heard 30 birds on the Merlin app. Can’t say enough positive things about this place. Very comfortable and relaxing."

"We were just passing through and needed to sleep for the night. We arrived after midnight and left around 9:00am. But my whole family found the cabin so delightful, we wished we could have stayed much longer. It's far nicer than the description and photos suggest.If we ever pass this way again, we'll be sure to book this cabin and plan a longer visit. "

"Wonderful place! Everything was exactly as described. The cabin was perfect for 5 teenage girls and two adults. We had a good balance of “chilling out” and taking in the UP. There was plenty of space for the girls to spread out. The location was perfect - just over an hour to Pictured Rocks and less than 20 minutes to the beaches in Gladstone and Escanaba. Communicating with the host was easy and mostly unnecessary. We had one issue with a wasp nest that was addressed very quickly. Detailed directions provided were perfect (especially because the trek back to the cabin is a little different). If we find ourselves in the Escanaba area again, we would definitely consider staying here. "
