This was the third time we stayed at this cozy, pet friendly cabin. It offers all the comforts of home and is in close proximity to many quaint lake towns. Once we found this cabin we never wanted to stay anywhere else.

Morel Mushroom Vacation

We had a bit of a rough start getting the Wi-Fi going, and we had to install the air conditioner because it was hot in the cabin. The area had just had an ice storm, and the damage was pretty bad. There were a lot of downed tree limbs in the backyard. We had to clean up the backyard before we could enjoy the fire pit. The temperature in the shower was hard to control, but the cabin was perfect for what we needed it for.

Great little cabin

Property and house were clean and had pretty much anything we needed. Great location with a little creek just a couple minute walk down the road going south. Will definitely check if it's available the next time I visit!

Cozy Cabin

This cabin is situated near everything! We skied at Otsego, just 8 minutes up the road. The cabin is small, but very cozy. The bedroom, loft and pullout bed fit our family of 4. I think there may have been an issue with cleaning prior to our arrival. There were 1/2 drank water bottles in the bedroom, and some old food in the sink. We were able to clean it up and enjoyed our stay.

Cute get away

The cabin is super cute and tine, perfect for a quick little get away. It is right off the road, but the back area is pretty covered by the trees so still a little private. Had the basic necessities and is very cozy!

Lovely A frame in great location. Driving distance to the west-Petosky, Ludington, to the east- Alpena, to the north-Mackinaw Island and Sault Ste Marie. We’ve stayed twice and highly recommend. If you’re a golf enthusiast, you’ll be in heaven right in Gaylord. We loved the elk viewing park too.

Lovely A frame

Location was perfect for seeing northern Michigan sights. Alpine Gaylord is a beautiful and clean town and friendly. Square footage of cabin is cozy. Furniture and cabinetry could use some updating but it is in a lovely setting. Close to a road but traffic quiets down in early evening. We would love to come back and rent again. Thanks Morgan.

SKI BUM vacation!

Spent 3 nights at the cute A-Frame cabin. Both queen beds are comfortable and linen was clean. Boyne Mountain is a 30 min drive and Otsego Resort is a 10 min drive. The kitchen is adequate to cook basic meals. Very cozy and we enjoyed are time spent playing cards at the dining table.
