The house is beautiful, well equipped, clean and very spacious. We were 15 people staying for 4 days on the property as part of a family reunion. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Hosts were very responsive about our inquiries. I highly recommend staying at this place if you are looking for a stay for a big group.

Reviewer Comments:
We rented this property with our 5 kids, spouses and grandchildren last year and had such a good time, we repeated the trip this year! The 6 bedrooms were a perfect fit, the kitchen wasn't missing anything we might have needed, there were games for both inside and outside easily accessible. In addition to this property, we thoroughly enjoyed exploring the area. There truly is something for everyone - old, young, athletic or not. Our grandkids loved Avalanche Bay Waterpark and "the Hungry Duck" petting farm. Our daughters/daughter-in-laws enjoyed shopping in Petoskey. As a family we toured the Kilwin's Kitchen in Petoskey. The golfers in our group didn't miss out on golfing right at Boyne. We had fun renting golf carts and touring the mountain's beauty. We could come back next year and see more of what the area offers ~ definitely MUCH to do in the area!!
