Comfortable Cabin for the four of us.

Great location while visiting our family. The cabin has a great kitchen with everything we needed. It was clean with comfortable beds. We brought an extra fan with us. Host was quickly responsive when we had questions.

Was a perfect cabin for our wedding visit. Well stocked with everything we needed. Clean, comfortable and a good value for two couples. Everthing was as advertised, close to venue and market in Mesick for essentials. Thanks

Clean, convenient and affordable

This was our second time staying here for only one night on our way to drive our son to camp. We enjoyed the updates made to the house (smart TV, WIFI). It's clean and has everything you need to cook at home. Beds were comfortable. We really enjoyed the deck at night. We had excellent communication from the host - she answers any questions almost immediately and was able to accommodate a late check-out request which made our trip even more convenient. We had dinner at Timbers and breakfast at Patty Cakes - both were very good and affordable. I'd definitely stay again and would love to extend it to 2 days so we could explore the beautiful river and Manistee National forest.

This property was nice. The pictures were taken some time ago and are not super current. The kitchen is well stocked with whatever you need to use to cook with. The house is spacious. There is an unpleasant smell that hits you as soon as you walk in and follows through your stay. This property owner definitely try’s hard to make you comfortable they just need to take a few extra measures with the smell. Let me reiterate that we enjoyed our stay! It is quiet and private and secure. The smell is our major complaint but is an easy fix.

First family vacation

We stayed for four days in July. It is a lovely little cabin. The cabin is easy to find. Our toddler loves the bunk beds, and the table overlooking the river. The hostess is excellent.
