Phenomenal, as always!
This is our second stay at the cabin and it was just as great as the first. It is clean, stocked with everything you could have possibly forgotten or need, and the bed is the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. Maj-Lis is always an incredible host, and we look forward to returning!

Great Getaway!
What a beautiful place to stay while we explored a part of Michigan we weren't familiar with. Beautiful country setting. Very clean with thoughtful amenities. It is located on a busy road, but traffic noise wasn't an issue during the night. We'd highly recommend!

Quiet getaway
Wonderful setting within range of all of the northern Michigan sites and trails. Travel to Mackinac City to see the Fort or go onto the Island, or see the many State Parks for hiking and shoreline town shopping.
Close to the only Waterfalls in the lower peninsula, and also located close to Onaway park with metal art works by a local that will turn your head.
Wonderful viewing of area wildlife and I recommend the stay.

GREAT place to stay!
Adorable cabin that had all the amenities we needed and VERY clean. The only thing we were disappointed about was that there was no snow until our last day! We would defiantly recommend this property.

Lovely Cabin in Meadow
We were sooooo happy with the cabin. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The furnishings were beautiful, the outdoor area was perfect for mornings with coffee. The peacock was an absolute bonus! All in all, very nice property.

Good stay near Onaway
The house is in a nice spot right off a main road and was easy to find and access. We were very happy with how it was equipped, seems like the host/owner thought of almost everything. Internet and streaming worked well. Everything is in good shape and it was very comfortable stay. Very happy with our decision to stay there.

What a Dream!
Incredible, beautiful, clean, every detail down to sleds for kids to play in the snow. Unbelievable service. The cabin is exquisite and the perfect example of an up north getaway. We loved it so much we booked another stay before we were through with this one. Cannot wait to go back!

Quiet, serene getaway
Coming up from the Grand Rapids area to visit family for the holidays and this property was close to family and a wonderful reprieve to relax in! Even with a literal blizzard it was warm, cozy and clean. Our pups were able to join us, which we appreciate that it was animal friendly because it wouldn’t be the holidays without our fur family! A perfect cabin atmosphere and our host was wonderful. Highly recommend and we will be returning!!

Very nice property . Super cute, super clean . One minor issue was the location of firepit , I wish it had been located out back behind the cabin instead of the side yard near the neighboring home .

Beautiful Weekend Getaway
My husband and I chose to stay here for our annual northern Michigan winter getaway weekend. The house was beautiful and was probably the cleanest home we have rented so far, which says a lot! The bed is kind of a memory foam - I loved it and he hated it, so it's just a personal preference. We explored Awakon Park, which has some neat sculptures scattered along some trails. Had a great dinner at Wood Winds Restaurant then enjoyed drinks and karaoke at Al's Onaway Bar. We had a great time relaxing for the weekend. I would go back in a heartbeat!

Felt like home!
This property is amazing! Not one detail was missed. By far the best VRBO we have stayed in! The log cabin has a cozy rustic feel and is nicely decorated. Extremely clean, beds were very comfortable, plenty of towels, all amenities were up to date. Property is located close to a main trail for snowmobiling. It made going for a ride real easy. We felt right at home. We will most certainly be coming back!
