Short Stay on the way home

The check in process was convenient and the cabin suited our needs for one night. The cabin was well stocked with anything we might need and there was plenty of room in the front to walk our dogs.

Not accurate

I don’t know how or where people said it’s beautiful— what river. Couldn’t see any water. It’s all over grown and not very clean. Outside patio was the size of a coffee table. No room to walk around. The house was clean. But not maintained. Windows hard to open. Bugs filled the window sils.

Great Trip

The Host KimMe is AMAZING!Very accommodating and ready to help with any issues that may arise.I saw a comment about well water, the cabin had a water container with filter in the fridge and it was fine. We were only a few minutes away from family. We came up to visit family. We are a family of 7 and it seemed very spacious for us. We would book again!

We stayed for four days in July. It is a lovely little cabin. The cabin is easy to find. Our toddler loves the bunk beds, and the table overlooking the river. The hostess is excellent.

Nice place to stay!

Quaint little place to stay near Traverse city. The house was clean and well stocked with extra blankets, pillows and movies for a quiet evening. It is right on the river but it’s about a 25ft drop down to the water.

Cute little cabin

We rented the house to stay in during the Buckley Old Engine Show which was only 5 min away. The house itself was cute, with the back porch and living room overlooking the Manistee River. The house has all the essentials and so peaceful! The bedrooms and bathroom are a little outdated but everything was so accessible and clean. Checking in and out was a breeze! So glad we stayed here!
