Perfect location for skiing, amenities made our stay easy and delightful. Just a quick note to those of you who have ambulatory issues there is a set of stairs to navigate to come up into house from the side door. Other access was not open because of the snow

Amazing UpNorth Home

The home and property far exceeded our expectations. The hosts provided so many amenities and “extras” that you wouldn’t normally expect at a VRBO (shampoo, condiments, firewood… to name a few). The location is central to so many beautiful areas. We can’t wait to come back.

River House

The house was so clean and stocked with everything anyone would need inside and out. The bedrooms were big and a spacious kitchen as well. We had a 3 and 4 year old who were entertained by catching and releasing frogs from the little pond in the front yard. The property was large and had great river frontage. The owners were wonderful and we would definitely rent this place again.

Comfortable, roomy place on the Betsie

We had a great time! I've never traveled with dogs or my family, so I'm excited we were able to stay. The river was very accessible, and the kids had a great time wading in. The house was awesome, stocked with the best kitchen supplies I've seen yet. The beds were comfortable, and it felt like someone loves this place, rather than most generic rentals. We made a lot of new memories here.
