"One of the staff members was extremely unprofessional and rude when asked about kids running the hallways until midnight. I get it, it’s not hugely within their control, however they could have done a better job ensuring things stopped and definitely not being rude to me when I was just inquiring about it. When asked if there was a manager she said not on site and that they were taking months off and one was on vacation. I emailed one manager with no response. Our room didn’t have several basic items like tissues and a bar of soap, which we just asked for at the front so that was fine. When cleaned it was also randomly done- one bed made, one trash changed, some towels taken some not, and no vacuuming. I appreciated that they did attempt to clean the room, but it was unnecessary and oddly done. The breakfast was better than most hotels. The pool and hot tub were nice but the jets were terrible. The overall condition of the property was outdated. "
"The home was as described and the views were spectacular. Close to Town with plenty to do. John always got back to us extremely fast with any questions or concerns. This is our second time here and we will be coming back!"

"Mary Lynn was a wonderful hostess. She was helpful and friendly without being overbearing. The house was clean and cozy and felt like a home away from home. We would definitely stay again if our adventures bring us to the UP in the future! "
"The cabin was rustic but so nice to stay in. It was warm with a fireplace heater and the view out to the lake was beautiful. The host was very communicative and nice. It was a great experience"
Private and secluded lakefront 15 minutes from Mackinaw City - Carp Lake
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful experience at this house. It is very clean and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with just about anything you need. The wood burning stove on the porch heats the porch up really nice on a cold night. The area is remote and very quiet. Minimal light pollution; we were hoping to see a lot of stars but unfortunately it was overcast every night. The beds are comfortable and we had no problem sleeping. The showers are nice with plenty of hot water and water pressure. We highly recommend this house and would definitely stay at here again."
"Great cabin! Waking up every morning with the lake view out from the window is the most perfect thing in the world! Tim and I loved sitting out on the porch and just taking in the scenery. The whole island has lots to see and lots to explore. We loved the hiking trails, protars cabin, the cute town, and the restaurants with it's delicious meals! And I genuinely loved using the VHS/VCR player in the cabin. I haven't used one of those in years! One night we were relaxing on the couch with the warmth of the fireplace, enjoying a hot cup of tea and watching 'grumpy old men. It was perfect! Thank you for letting us stay in your cabin for a few nights! "
