Cozy and relaxing
Diane and Tony have created a wonderful cottage. It is meticulously maintained with excellent appliances ... and they are very conscientious and thoughtful (e.g. Diane was clearning the outdoor grill the day before we checked in and Tony shoveled the snow at 7am the morning after a night's snowfall! Very highly commend their "cozy nest"!

Fall colors
We wanted to visit some family in the area, see the fall colors, and be able to bring our German Shepherd. This cute little "nest" worked perfectly. We were close to the tunnel of trees, Pond Hill Farm, and our family that live in Petoskey. The only suggestion I have is that the chairs in the living room are not very comfortable. Everything else was great! Thank you!
