Cute and Cozy Cabin
My friends and I found this property very cute and comfortable. Mike was very communicative with us and took the extra steps to make sure it felt like home. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quite spot surrounded by woods. We all loved it!!

Perfect cabin getaway
This place is absolutely perfect for a break from the craziness of life. You are secluded enough but not so far away from stores and places to visit. It was so peaceful and the kids loved all the room to run, play, dog and explore. The inside of the cabin looked just as it was advertised and the kids LOVED the loft. It was perfect for the four of us. We would definitely recommend to others who want to get away for a little bit. I would highly recommend bringing dirt bikes or 4 wheelers if you have them as there are tons of tracks around the cabin.

Great cabin in the woods!
This cozy cabin was just what we were looking for. The host, Mike, was really lovely and we had everything we needed. The kitchen is fully stocked, and it would be a great place for kids to bike around a bit (we didn't bring bikes but we should have!). The dirt roads are very quiet. It's about an hour to Petoskey or Charlevoix, a great starting point for hiking and visiting Lake Michigan. Our kids (7&9) absolutely loved the loft - they felt like they had their own fort in the cabin, and they engaged in a lot of imaginary play. We had no problem getting into the area in our Mazda3 (front-wheel drive). I'd recommend accessing the area via Boardman River Road and Wildwood rather than Shippy (the way Google kept telling us to go) since it's a better dirt road. The front porch was a relaxing place for coffee and reading, and there were hardly any mosquitoes (at least this year). All in all, a great stay, and I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a north woods getaway.

The location was remote but still close enough to civilization. The cabin was clean. No bugs which is surprising being in a wooded area. Very quiet and peaceful. Walking trail right out the door. Can't wait to go back.

Really Nice
Property owner communicated very well. Also lives nearby and offered to drop by quickly if we needed help with anything. Very quiet property - (10 acres of pine forest and ferns) Lots to do nearby. We kayaked the Manistee River, did the Mission Point wineries and rode horses. Property has a bunch to do also (including a fire pit and grill) that we never had a chance to use. Television was easy to learn. We are not techy but figured it out quickly. Cell reception was good, which is not always the case in northern Michigan. One warning would be the private, dirt road. It was not too bad but if you have an SUV and a car then take the SUV, especially if it's snowy or rainy. We would definitely go back.

The cabin was quiet and cozy. I would say there was only one complaint I had which is not against the cabin/property directly. On our second night there we were just wanting to relax outside by a fire. But...VERY close to the property there was someone shooting a gun (probably at targets) for 1 hour and 45 minutes. This is not a relaxing atmosphere. We are not anti gun people - we also target shoot but it was uncomfortable sitting there with guns going off and not having a clue who is shooting ( are they safe with the guns etc...)

Awesome Rustic cabin feel
This property is just that Rustic and beautiful. It is truly the cabin, woodsy feel. We rented the place to have the rustic, away from modern society and technology to be just family. No internet (Great) can have the natural bonding time with family like the good old days. I have nothing bad to say about this cabin. My family loved it and we most definitely would chose to stay here again if we make it back up this way in the near future. Thank you to our contact person he was very friendly and made check in super easy. Great time with family.

Uncomfortable stay, overpriced cabin
I’ve stayed in a lot of vacation rentals throughout the US and overseas and, unfortunately, this one really stood out. The cabin is mostly as pictured, but it is very much in need of care and attention. The description (at booking and during our stay) said that the cabin has central air conditioning. It has a single window AC unit. The appliances are in a poor state of repair. Unfortunately, the fridge does not maintain a consistent temperature and I had to throw out much of our food after it froze in the fridge. The microwave is small and the roof was splattered with old food. The washer and dryer were functional but extremely noisy. Towels are provided, but they were mostly threadbare and frayed. Several had large holes – 6-8 inches long - in them, no better than rags. The kitchen, especially the silverware drawers needed an extensive deep clean. The cabin is poorly lit and many bulbs need replacing – we had to use our phones as flashlights. There is no WiFi, which wouldn’t be a problem, except that cell service is very spotty, with one bar if you are lucky. It was difficult to reach the host and no instructions, check-in instructions, or directions were provided. It would have been useful to know, in advance, for example, that the road to the cabin is a very uneven dirt road. It is 40 minutes from Traverse city. The trails behind the cabin are fun, but some info or maps would have been useful. Overall there were many small things that combined to make this an uncomfortable stay. Fortunately, for the owner, most of them could be fixed fairly easily with a small investment. Neither the owner nor Evolve, the management company responded to our concerns. The per night rate we paid was nearly $300 and it’s clear that this was not good value.

Perfect private getaway
Mike was awesome communicating with us, he made sure we had everything we needed and that we had instructions for whatever was in the house. He also had firewood cut up for us, so we could have a bonfire. Everything was clean. It was also very private which we enjoyed very much. It was a great experience!

Pretty little cabin in the woods
This was the perfect spot for the 4 us (2 adults, 2 kids). We loved the seclusion and peacefulness, enjoyed a campfire every night, and the ability to cook our own meals. Plus it was a short drive to places we needed or wanted to go to.

Quiet Cabin
Super clean and comfy. They provided little travel size items just in case you forgot something. ATV trails all around for your enjoyment, but no worries if you're not into that, it wasn't noisy at ALL. The road back to the cabin is VERY rural, we left after a good rain and were pretty glad we were in an SUV. About 25 minutes or so to Traverse City which was perfect. I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting a quiet get away!

Amazing!
We rented this cabin for a place to sleep while attending a co workers wedding in Traverse City. This property far exceeded our expectations. What we thought would be a crash pad turned into the highlight of the trip. The cabin was so cozy and inviting! I stayed in the upstairs loft and was worried I would be warm in the night but Mike left multiple plug in fans around the cabin for us to use if needed. The cabin came fully equipped with all the cooking utensils we needed to prepare meals as well as community items for sharing like mustard and coffee! Although we did not have any ATV’s or other recreational vehicles to explore the back woods with we made the most of it with morning nature walks. We enjoyed many laughs around the fire pit and star gazed on the hammocks. You can tell this property is well loved and it holds a lot of wonderful memories for many (myself now included!) Mike was so kind and easy to work with. We definitely want to rent this property again in the future! Thank you!
