10/10 Excellent
"We all truly enjoyed our stay! We’ve stayed at several rentals in the Caseville/Port Austin area over the years, and this location was definitely one of our favorites. We make an annual family trip every Labor Day weekend with my two kids, my mom, sister, and aunt, and this rental was perfect for us.The property was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the host was incredibly helpful and accommodating. They made sure we had everything we needed and even allowed us to change our stay dates when I accidentally booked the wrong days. We really appreciated their understanding and flexibility.We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely book this rental again for our next family trip!"

"Beautiful home with plenty of space for a large group. Kitchen has a filtered water tap at the sink. Very short drive to town and beach access was just a short walk. We had a great stay! Since the house is in a wooded area by a lake, be prepared to bring bug repellent if you want to spend time outside on the property."
