Checked all the boxes
This little cottage was perfect for us. We were able to bring our dogs and have the freedom to let them roam around in the fenced in yard. The home is walking distance to the few shops/restaurants that Walloon has to offer. The hot tub was perfect for the chilly nights we had and gave us something extra to do with our downtime. It was also so nice to have such a quick drive to both boyne city and petoskey. Highly highly recommend this stay. The hosts were so helpful, communicative, and left a sweet welcome letter upon our arrival. We have definitely added this to our “must revisit” list.

Great cottage
We went for a quick weekend getaway to break up the winter doldrums! Great cottage in a wonderful location. We did a couple of activities at Boyne Highlands and hit a couple wineries. We had a beautiful walk downtown and around Walloon Lake. The cottage has a large yard that would be awesome in the summer! Would definitely stay again! We had everything we needed for a terrific stay!

Weekend Get Away - August 25-28
We wanted to get in a long weekend in northern Michigan as summer was winding down and we had a great time in the village of Walloon Lake. The cottage had all the comforts of home and more. Larissa checked in to make sure we settled in ok and was available with any questions we had. Loved our time there! The Mielens

Fantastic summer get-away
We booked this house for 5 days in short notice when our other vacation plans fell apart. We really lucked out! The place had everything we needed, with a few extras. The bunkhouse turned out to be a real highlight - our young adult son stayed there and enjoyed his own space/TV. The location is super - a short walk to Walloon Village (including Tommy’s where we rented a pontoon boat, a great candy/ice cream shop, and the wonderful general store) - and a short drive to Petosky. Harbor Springs and Charlevoix are just 30 minutes away, we’ll worth the trip. The house was as nicely appointed and clean as we could have hoped. Hosts were responsive. Wo-fi, appliances, etc. worked great. Hot tub was womderful! No complaints whatsoever.
