The cabin was really clean and super cute. I know it doesn’t say it on the booking but it’s almost like a tiny house. I don’t think I was expecting it to be so small but again super cute and we enjoyed our time there. A couple things I would bring with me next time would be a towel for my hair after a shower and something to put my shampoo and such on while in the shower. Will book thru Sabrina again.

Labor Day Weekend

The property was quiet and clean with only one other guest in a cabin and only 25 minutes to all the Manistee attractions and the lake. VRBO email had one set of wifi instructions, the box for the router near the TV had another set of wifi instructions, and the binder (which I didnt immediately look at) had a third. The property owner responded immediately to my request after we tried the first two sets of info, which is all I can ask for, but offering consistent information is important.

Cozy little cabin

Cabin was nice and cozy. My husband and I were only there one night with our dog, and it suited our purpose just fine. However, it was lacking in a few things. Upon checking in, I noticed there was only one washcloth (plenty of towels, but only the one washcloth). I called about getting another, and he was very pleasant, and promised he would call the housekeeper to deliver another one. The only problem was that it never came, so one of us had to go without. Also, the shower could have used a shelf - would have been much easier & safer not to have to bend over to pick up shampoo from the shower floor. A couple of extra pillows for sleeping would have been nice too. But it was a cute cabin, and I appreciate that they allow dogs. Other than those minor things, I recommend it.

The listing was somewhat accurate. The AC did not work, no instructions on use of the fireplace, and the wiring scheme is novel.

Cozy spot

This was a wonderful little getaway location close to hiking trails. Check in was a little rocky (my door code didn't work) but we managed to get a hold of the host and it was resolved quickly.
