Pleasant Stay

A sense of isolation yet close to amenities. Only a mile or so from town and close to a beach.

Great spot!

The host was very communicative, there were helpful notes posted around the house, the history is cool, and there was plenty of space for all of us. I really appreciate that we were all able to bring our dogs along. It was close to town and the beach but still felt a little secluded. The porch was amazing. The ONLY thing my family had to say was they wished the grass had been cut around the porch area since it's tick season (one tick found on the kid's shoulder). We also couldn't find any kitchen towels but might not have looked hard enough. Kitchen was pretty well stocked otherwise!

Great spot to get away

I really enjoyed my stay at the hideout in the woods. I was there for my brothers bachelor party, and we had a decent size group. The main house was super clean. It was the perfect size for all of us to get good nights sleep.The real star of the place was the barn that was converted into a mock saloon. There was pool, darts, fusball, and other games. The two propane heaters kept us warm in near freezing temperatures. We spent most of our time in there just having a good time. If you are looking for a secluded cabin with easy going entertainment, then this is the place for you

Perfect short stay

My extended family and I were in the area for a wedding and needed a place that could house 6 adults and 7 kids ranging in age from 1-7. This was a great find and we loved utilizing the outdoor fire pit.

Perfect hideout!!

The house was very spacious, but we still spent most of our time on the covered front porch and yard. Plenty of room for our family to spread out if they chose. Plenty of the essentials are stocked (tp, shower supplies, etc). Very much appreciated

Great location and room for everyone and everything you need

A wonderful property with space for the whole family and then some! We enjoyed the bonus of the saloon and spent a great time playing the games in there. Absolutely loved the privacy of being in the woods and the trails get not far from stores and the towns. Comfortble beds and plenty of places to sit and relax.

Amazing

We absolutely loved our stay. It was clean and so much space for everyone. Although we didn't get a chance to hang out in the barn we did check it out. The porch may have been one of our favorite places huge and covered so you could enjoy the storms we had while there.

Secluded and Beautiful

This house is the perfect up north get away in the woods. Plenty of room, close to town, so much to do and plenty of room to spread out. The theater surround sound and saloon was fun for the kids and adults. The kitchen has all you need. The front porch was a perfect morning spot for coffee and we even had deer walk through the front yard. Plenty of room to park the boat and the beds were also very comfortable. The communication with the host was top notch. You won't be sorry if you book here!

Fun property!

We had a goos time here. The place was very cute and it had a old house feel(because it is). The layout was somewhat confusing but we liked that about the place! The barn was fun and so was the scavenger hunt they provided. Easy check in. The projector room was angood time too. Would recommend :)

Truly Wonderful

The property is exactly as its listed plus much more. Its very spacious throughout, with everything we needed already there. The porch and projection room are everything, with a year round Christmas tree, we loved it! My family have over 15 years of renting properties and I can say without a doubt this one is in the top 10 Two suggestions: barn needs better insulation for the winter months and the two upper rooms could use small tvs. The owner was so nice and he communicated well, any questions were answered fast. Thank You Steve for such an unforgettable experience, we'll definitely be back in the summer months 👍👍

Perfect rustic getaway

Easy to feel far away from everything when you’re at Steve’s place! Spent three days with a group of friends, had everything we needed to cook and hang out comfortably. The outdoor space is fantastic and there is plenty of room for a lot of people. Self-cleaning check out was fine, but not a very powerful washing machine to try to do 6 beds worth of linens/towels all before a noon check out. I would maybe bring my own sheets next time to avoid the trouble. It was also not totally clean when we arrived - tons of dust bunnies and grime. Could use a heavier deep cleaning more regularly, but I know it’s a busy season. Everything else was great, and Steve was a terrific and communicative host. Thank you, we’ll be back!

Bedbugs

First night there, my sister woke up and noticed her bed was filled with little red bed bugs. She has bites all over her. The host sent someone to spray. She saw a bedbug and said, "yes, that's a bed bug, we use this spray all the time, IT WORKS". She did not go through every room like she says. The host is trying to say it's fleas from my dog. My dog was never in that room prior. The host and cleaning attendant are very rude. I was hung up on. This is not a listing anyone should use. With such good reviews, we are very aur

Christmas in May

What a cozy, unique, & homey cabin in Northern Michigan. We spent this weekend with our niece's & nephews (12 of us) as a getaway Christmas Gift. This was our 1st time doing this & this will Not be the last time. This place was PERFECT for our weekend. Most all of us had never explored this part of Michigan and loved exploring. We saw scenic overviews & climbed dunes of the AuSable River, beach front of Lake Huron, and Huron-Manistee National Forests Lumberman's Monument, it was a Blast and the "Hideout in the woods" was in a ideal location for that! The cabin held us all Very comfortably, absolutely loved the dinner table that we ALL fit at. The theater room was a great place for games & entertainment. Scavenger hunt entertained & challenged the kids. Amazing fire pit ring we spent LOTS of time around. I can Not say enough about how fantastic Steve(the owner) was at fast responses to all of my Q's, and I had a lot of them as this was my 1st vrbo rental ever. My husband and the kids all raved about how comfortable the beds were & we all LOVED the hideout saloon. My only disappointment was how fast our time went. Everyone was already taking about "next year". Thank you, "Hideout in the woods" for being the place where we made unforgettable memories with our family, that are priceless!!
