Annual family get-together
Very nice neighborhood and lovely home. Just what we needed. Not enough space for everyone at the family home, so this was perfect. Will definitely be back 😊

We had the opportunity to stay at Ed's place for a short weekend getaway and it was perfect. Kayaked the Au Sable River with Paddle Brave and hiked in Grayling. Perfect location for us and everyone in town was friendly and accommodating! It was a great and relaxing trip, thanks Ed!

Cozy getaway
We needed a place to stay over Labor Day weekend with short notice. We didn't think we'd find anything this reasonable near Higgins Lake since Labor Day is a big "farewell to summer " weekend in northern Michigan. Plus we needed to find a dog friendly property for our 2 small dogs. Ed's cozy home ended up being perfect for us. The house was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to make home cooked meals. We also enjoyed Matt's Lake Street Grill (3 times) and highly recommend this restaurant. The bed was super comfortable and the area was quiet for a good nights sleep. We would definitely stay here again. This is our first time renting a place through VRBO and it was a very pleasant experience. Thank you, Ed!

5 stars. Would stay again.
The location was close to everything that you could need. Groceries. Take out, dine in. The dog beach at the south state park was about a 12 minute drive which was just fine for us. The house was stocked with everything that we needed. It was clean and spacious for two of us and our large breed dog.

Excellent Family Getaway!!!
What an amazing time! Our family truly enjoyed our stay. Communication with the property owner was quick and responsive. The home had everything we needed, and even had a great selection of DVD’s for the rainy night we had. The fire pit was perfect family time the rest of the nights. Plenty of space, and close easy walk to the Au Sable River access. Canoe rental is literally up the street, and North Higgins Lake State Park is a really quick drive away. The Village of Roscommon is cute and quaint, and had everything we needed as well. We’ll definitely be back :-)

Can't express how much we loved this property, the amazing bed in the master, the location to town and Paddle Brave and the beautiful river steps from the livingroom. So much more than we expected, so secluded and updated. Can't wait to stay again!
