Expect a Five Star stay with us! Here is what a few guests have said:
"We enjoyed our stay at Danielle and Craig's place in Bellaire, MI. The accommodations were as described and the house has lovely scenery and quick access to Schuss Mountain trails and hills access. Super close to downtown Bellaire and close to Torch Lake to enjoy in the summer. We had a great girls weekend and would recommend staying here."
"This place was absolutely perfect for a ski weekend for my family. Fantastic location right in the middle of Shanty Creek resort area, but the homes are spread out so it's also very peaceful in a pretty wooded setting. Plenty of beds, super clean bathrooms and linens, and wonderfully cozy fireplace to retreat to after skiing. The kids loved that we had access to the resort pools as well. Will definitely have to come back during golf season!"
"A wonderful family vacation of 3 generations! Danielle was extremely responsive to all of our questions. The place was spotless and very well stocked. Beds were comfortable. There's such a broad range of things to do, including enjoying boating on Intermediate and Torch Lakes, downtown Bellaire and Alden for shopping and Shorts Brewery, and enjoying the indoor and outdoor pools, quiet strolls in the early morning and evening, and ordering in amazing pizza from BC's on our first night after traveling and settling in. The evenings were spent around the coze campfire and game nights."

This place was perfect for our big group! Had everything we needed to host Thanksgiving together. The kids loved the bunk bed room and the downstairs living room for playing, and the pool was so nice as well and great activity for the kids. Everything was clean and very nice, couldn’t recommend it more! And definitely go to Short’s if you stay here, the beer is great!
Great location to skiiing! Clean, cozy, spacious (there were 12 of us 13-50) & well stocked with linens, games, & kitchen supplies to cook!
Will definitely stay again when we come back.
The property was exactly what we were looking for and was just as advertised on the listing. Property was clean when we arrived and check in and checkout were so easy. Our hosts were also very responsive and super helpful. This was a perfect location for our golf trip weekend and definitely plan to book again for our next time out this way.
An adorable well kept/stocked cabin with much attention to detail. Just show up with some food and the rest is covered. A super cozy and well layed out place with lounging room for everyone. We look forward to staying here again!
We had an incredible experience staying at Danielle's and Craig's property! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a spotless home that exceeded our expectations. The spacious layout provided plenty of room for our family, and the decor was both stylish and comfortable. We particularly loved the fully equipped kitchen, which made meal preparation a breeze, and the outdoor patio, perfect for enjoying morning coffee with a view. The location was ideal, with easy access to local attractions and beautiful beaches just a short drive away. Danielle and Craig were attentive and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. We can’t wait to return and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!
We were lucky to find this gem for a last minute ski trip with our adult children and friends. It accommodated my husband and myself and 12 young adults comfortably. Everyone had a bed to sleep in, and plenty of towels for our showers after a long day of skiing. Danielle and Craig have done a lovely job with updates and all I wanted to do was snuggle on the couch in front of the fire and read a book. The cabin is within minutes of the ski hill and tucked away in a charming community with plenty of privacy. We did not have any major issues, but the little questions I did have were responded to quickly. Thank you Danielle and Craig for being a part in helping us create memories with our children!
Fantastic stay and getaway. The house was clean, cozy and had 5 large beds along with 3 bunk beds. The Blackstone grill was SO NICE to use with a view of the forest.
