All the family trip
We had 5 kids ages (almost) 3-16 and 6 adults stay in the house. It's so very spacious! We never felt on top of each other. During down time the kids hung out int the game room and adults occupied the dining room playing cards. The bunk room allowed for all kids to have their own bed, which was perfect. Very very short walk to the lake which was great for the kids to play in for hours on end. We all tried out kyaking and paddle boarding with the provided equipment. The front porch with the picnic table provided plenty of extra space for dinner. It was a great place to all hang out and chill for a few days. We would definitely consider this same place for future trips.

Big Bear Cabin
My family and I had a wonderful stay. The cabin accommodated our family of 11 and even had room for a couple more. The house was very clean and looked exactly like the pictures. Having the game room was nice for the grandkids to play in. It was a short walk to the lake with a small beach for the kids to play on. The location was good too;You are between Lewiston and Gaylord. It would also be a great place for a winter vacation too. I highly recommend the place.

Pleasantly surprising
The home was much nicer than described. We had lots of space for all to be comfortable. Everything we needed was there. There were eight of us. I didn't hear a single complaint.

Perfect Fit
The house was spacious and adequate for 3 families of 11 people. The pool table was perfect; it became the central gathering spot. We were grateful to find the kayak and paddle board in the garage. They were a good compliment to the water craft we brought. (Had we known they would be available, we might have changed what we brought.) (Both seats in the kayak are badly torn and need to be replaced.) The kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals for our crew. (The kitchen knives are so dull, using them was almost dangerous.) We were thankful to find fishing gear in the garage, and caught a fish! We could have used one more kitchen trash bag, and one more dishwasher pod. Thank you for opening your home, we had a delightful time and fell in love with MI.

Our weekly vacation rental
We liked the house very much and the location is great for seeing lots of attractions. The only issue we had was, it was not well supplied with towels , tp or other paper products. There were 9 of us. All in all it was a great week and we wouldn't mind staying there again

Nice Property
We really enjoyed the property. There was plenty of toilet paper and other necessities. The property was very clean and a very short walk to the lake. There is a lot to do in the area. I would recommend and would stay again.

More beautiful than the pictures
We stayed at this property in July and we had adults and children (2 and 4 years). Pros: The pictures on the listing are nice but the property is even more beautiful in person! Plenty of parking for our group (4 spots). The porch has a fan to keep air circulating, lots off porch seating plus outdoor chairs, large fire pit on side of the house, large dumpster provided. There are outdoor toys and grill provided. Inside there's lots of sleeping space and rooms provide lots of room for luggage. Kitchen is fully equipped (blender, toaster, coffee maker, baking items, utensils, plates, glasses, etc). We cooked almost all of our meals here during our stay. Lots of fridge/freezer space thanks to the extra fridge in the game room. Game room was fun with the billiard table and dart board. The house was extremely clean! Very impressed. Air conditioned and box fans provided. About a 3 minute walk to the beach and about 8 minute drive to public boat launch. The hosts were very responsive when we had a question before and during our stay. We visited Gaylord (25 minute drive) and Mackinac Island (1 hour 15 min drive) while here. Big Bear Trading Post is a 5 minute drive and had delicious pizza! Cons: Due to the recent rise in water levels, there is a small beach. Each time we went out to the beach we raked the beach to have a spot to sit in the sand. Overall, I would definitely recommend!

Perfect for a quick weekend.
House was well stocked, roomie, great game room and the bedrooms were large. Only complaint would be the strange "one bag of garbage" rule. If you are staying longer than a long weekend or have a large group you will be having to make a trip or so to the dump to throw your trash away.

Great house
Plenty of space, and the beds were very comfortable. Enough space to spread out, and stuff to do at the house. Good location to go the Mackinac island, the UP, and we went to torch lake. Definitely keep it in mind for next years trip.

Peace up north.
My family and I do a trip up north every year just to enjoy nature and one another. This house was PERFECT for the occasion. Spacious, clean, well stocked. 3 minute walk to the Beach/Lake. Loved it. Seriously would stay again.

Better than expected
No real issues. There’s no AC but it was fairly cool still in the house with all the fans. Could use a few more blankets in the house and shower pressure sucked but all in all it was a great stay.
