We had a fabulous stay. The home was cozy, set in the country on a large wooded lot. It was a quick drive to sleeping bear dunes and close to Glenn Arbor. Gary was a responsive host and easy to communicate with. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to visit the area. Hope to stay here again.

Lovely slice of paradise in Northern Michigan

The property was very pleasant from the deck to the grill and the fire pit to everything in the house. There were great amenities in the house, including paper goods, plenty of towels, and beach towels. It was very comfortable place to spend the week. The accessibility to Empire and the National Lakeshore was perfect.

Wonderful vacation house

This house was perfect for enjoying Sleeping Bear lakeshore and surrounding area. We had all the activities close by and had the wooded, private property. We enjoyed biking, hiking, a Lake Michigan beach, and shopping small towns.
