Peaceful stay
The cabin is just as we expected. Nice, clean, and private. The host had everything we needed, and I love that she provided a bottle of champagne to start our vacation. We also really loved being by the river. The sound of running water is calming. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful and peaceful
The property was beautiful with the river running behind it. Sharon has made the place cozy and welcoming. Most importantly, it was clean and well kept. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking to get away from the hustle of city life, and if you have dogs, they will love it! Thank you Sharon for being such a welcoming host!

Beautiful yard and great location
The house is nice and the owner is accessible and nearby. We enjoyed our stay being close to so many things to do and see. The house has everything you need. There’s no laundry but laundromat is in a nearby town that’s nice to visit. Just beautiful having the creek and river so close. We enjoyed the fire pit and especially the screen porch!

On the river
We enjoyed our stay in the cabin on the Betsie. We had many great hikes, peace in our hearts sitting in the swing above the river and lots of relaxing. Just what we wanted!

Relaxing
This was a perfect spot to do what exactly we wanted....to relax. We found amazing places nearby to hike, and it was a week we won't ever forget. The cabin is very sweet, and decorated adorably. Colors were still beautiful even though it was the 2nd week of November. Our weather was perfect til the last 2 days and we enjoyed it all. Thank you so much for this special experience. AND the river was mesmerizing.
