Clean, Secluded, and Stars!

My wife and I have rented a lot of cabins in the UP and Northern mitten and this was our favorite so far. The cabin is well kept and clean with all the amenities one would need. The wifi connection was great, the water was hot and didn’t smell. There were a lot of mosquitoes, but plenty of candles and repellent, then we were all good. We took a short drive to Tahquamenon and Mackinac wasn’t far either. We love dark skies and star gazing, turned out the lights, headed out on to the dock, and saw the milky way clearly.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

Just what we needed

The check-in process was a breeze and we ran into zero issues with getting into the house. We arrived after dark as we had stopped to check out Mackinac Island on our way up. The driveway is lined with woods, so driving in you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. It rained a bit while we were there so we weren't able to use the fire pit, but that is ok as we were all exhausted every night anyway. The mosquitoes were pretty bad as were the black flies, but that didn't stop the kids from playing in the water. One kid learned how to kayak using the kayaks provided. It was the perfect time to learn and the water only went up to their waist towards the end of the dock. Being right there on this beautiful lake, which I heard is great for fishing, is just chef's kiss. We did run into an issue with hot water, but we reached out to the property owner and between him and my husband, we got it all straightened out quickly. Smooth sailing after that. The kids learned tiktok dances, taught them to my mom and I, and then performances were had. We also received some special puppet shows put on by the kids. It was the most perfect up north cabin life experience. The neighbors were pleasant as well. On an important note, there are lots of outlets. Sometimes cabins can be light on outlets, but we never ran into an issue that we didn't have an outlet available. If I ever make it back up to the area, I would absolutely stay here again.
