Very nice place

My adult son, son-in-law & I stayed here to try the utv trails nearby. It was a blast! House was just as described and we had no issues. The trails are pretty close and the one we rented from dropped the rides off for a small fee. Definitely would reccomend this as a base!

Coziest cabin and so close to the slopes

Loved this cabin! The host was super responsive and so helpful! Plenty of firewood provided and loved the wood burning stove. Lots of room for all your things. And the upstairs bedrooms are so cozy. Literally two turns away from Caberfae.

Perfect chill Cabby getaway

We had such a delightful time at this cabin just a couple of minutes from the slopes at Caberfae for closing weekend. The cabin had everything we needed to cook and cozy up for the week. We were also only 30ish mins from crystal for the weekdays. The beds were super comfy and we had a wonderful time. Dory was super fair and a great communicator throughout our stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Great weekend getaway

The cabin is very cozy, nicely appointed, and has a super comfortable and homey feel. We enjoyed family conversations on the deck and at the fire pit. Dory has done a superb job with decorations and furniture. It is the perfect place for a relaxing family getaway with plenty of outdoor activities nearby.

Ski Trip!

Convenient to Caberfae Peaks resort, staying here meant we could have plenty of space, a kitchen and table, etc. for the whole family instead of staying in a hotel. We were able to ski together, cook together, and spend a wonderful couple days together overall. Hopefully, we’ll be back next winter for more of the same! We definitely appreciated the plowed driveway, btw.; Cadillac area had a ton of snow on the ground when we visited.
