Kate kindly greeted me when I arrived, and provided "room service" with towels and trash. This was my second stay, and it is clean, soaps, coffee, toaster, microwave, cozy. Nice place to travel to nearby sights from. Also lovely firepit and outdoor table and chairs.

Ray and Kate were dream hosts. The property is quiet and relaxed. The boys loved exploring the trails around the property and playing with the dogs. At night we laid out on the dock watching the stars, even seeing a clear Milky Way. Fresh towels daily too! We had a quick and easy trip to Manistee for salmon fishing and then hiking in the national forest. Can’t wait till the next stay.

Weekend grad party

We chose the Bear Lake area because of its proximity to the location of where my nephews grad party was held. We really enjoyed the cabin and took advantage of our time in the area to visit other family members that live in Honor.
