Perfection
We loved staying at this property. It was the perfect location to explore one of our favorite parts of Michigan. We loved playing in the river, playing games as a family, listening to records, and slept well each night. The marriage of retro and contemporary meant it was like visiting grandma’s house while enjoying modern comforts. We are definitely plan to come back.

Cute and Comfortable
We enjoyed the retro theme with many blasts from our pasts. The kitchen is well stocked. The living room has bookcases filled with all kinds of things to do for both adults and children. The neighborhood is quiet. The deck out back sits by the Platte River and is a great place to relax. The house is close to the beach and town.
Fantastic retro- styled cabin: great amenities, cool decor, awesome record collection, and comfortable vacation property. The hosts provided some great suggestions for local events and food. Overall had a great trip, super comfy and will be staying again!
