We have stayed here twice now and absolutely love it. The house is clean and the pellet stove is amazing. We come up for ice fishing and the garage is nice for thawing out and hanging clothes to dry before coming into the house.
We had to cancel this trip last minute due to illness, but we stay often and it's always clean and just what we need while visiting family in the area.
We met with friends, explored the surroundings and celebrated an anniversary with this wonderful location as our base. It met all expectations. Beautiful area - clean and comfortable place. Well done Tracy and Dave! Would definitely stay here again in the future.
Great location with access to hiking/biking trail and boat launch just a couple miles away. We brought our boat, bikes and Burley for the dog. Ride to Topinabee was beautiful both by land and water. Rental was spacious, well appointed and spotless. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.
We have stayed here in the past …. We brought some friends on this trip and they were also impressed with how cozy the apartment is. We love the large kitchen and dining area . Thanks again Tracy and Dave
This VRBO was just as described! Plenty of room to relax and great accommodations for sleeping and getting ready! I was so looking forward to my two-night stay but a family emergency took me away before I was able to enjoy the second night. This was no reflection on my host, just unfortunate timing.
We enjoyed our stay! Nicely furnished, comfortable, clean, well-stocked kitchen, great water pressure, comfy beds, and more. This place had everything we needed. We were greeted with a complimentary bottle of wine and lovely scent throughout which reminded me of our stays in upscale hotels. The location was a nice homebase for our daily excursions.
We forgot our fan (for sleeping). That’s the only thing I can think of that would have been nice to find in the closet to save the day (night 😊).
Pros-very responsive property manager, good mattresses, private location, very very clean, accepts dogs
Cons-one of the sleeping areas doesn’t have egress for fire, cold (pellet stove did not stay on despite being loaded. I don’t trust using them because if they are installed improperly they can cause CO poisoning), noise (you can hear the owners upstairs).
Overall, good for a short stay in warm months. Not far from downtown Cheboygan and also not a bad commute to visit Mackinaw or Alpena.
The property was as shown on the VRBO site. Looks like it was recently updated. Very comfortable and within 15 minutes of Indian River; 30 minutes to the Dark Sky park; 30 minutes to Petoskey. Although across from Mullet Lake, you cannot see the lake from the property due to vegetation, but this was not an issue for us. We noted that there is a beach just down the road. Host was responsive to messages via VRBO. They also left their cell number so we could text if any issues. We will definitely rent again when visiting family in Indian River.
This lower level apartment is very clean. Two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with two twins, a separate laundry room and a bathroom with two sections: toilet and bath/shower separate from the sink. I loved the number of towel hangers! The queen bed is super comfy. There is lots of light coming through the sliding doors. The kitchen is equipped well. A nice surprise was a bottle of rose and a nice set of bar tools. The place is 15 min away from Cheboygan and across the street from Mullet Lake. It’s dog friendly as well. We enjoyed everything about the place. The only thing that could be better is the living room couch - uncomfortable to lounge on, probably because it is dated. Would stay here again if in the area!
The basement apartment was modern, clean, and spacious. The queen size bed was very comfortable. In the smaller room, the listing states there is a day bed but instead it is two twin size beds. The location is nice but it is right off of a main highway which leads to a lot of traffic noise while trying to sit by the fire. There are a lot of nice features including an air fryer, large refrigerator, and a fire pit. The sectional sofa and chair in the living room are nice and big but have seen some usage. Overall, Dave and Tracy were very accommodating hosts that were friendly and responsive. Thank you for letting us enjoy your property.
Overall, nice space. This location is only a half hour from the ferries & one of the lower priced places in the area. The place is spacious & didn't feel like a lower level apt.because of the two sliders letting light in.
Queen bed was fairly comfortable w/ extra pillows & blankets supplied if needed. The living room seating is not very comfortable, plenty of it but uncomfortable. The area could use an ottoman which may help.They had Netflix and Roku if you want it, TVs in the living area, each BR also has internet. I loved having the laundry area since we usually have to take advantage of laundromats when in campgrounds & the bathroom area was spacious & clean.
Seating area outside w/ a firepit which we didn't utilize. You are on a main road so when sitting outside you get a lot of traffic noise but barely hear it in the apartment. Kitchen was adequate, some basic items there cookware, coffee pods, foil, some condiments. Plenty of spices, microwave & air fryer toaster oven.
We are past hosts so may scrutinize places differently. The areas that a lot of hosts miss are cleaning the coffee makers & washers. Both coffeemakers were dirty (reservoir in keurig was slimy) & the front load washer seal was moldy. I cleaned the coffee maker but nothing to clean the washer. Also if a host could ask if guests are scent sensitive, had to remove a strong plugin air freshener which didn't appear to be hiding any odors. I had to use my own soap since all supplied were scented.
This property was great for us. We were mainly boating and the location was perfect in conjunction to the marina. It was nicely lit which made it easy to see at night on the street! It was great to have laundry (clean and big) and a dishwasher! Overall it was a great stay!
