Aug 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The property was great and had everything we needed. ##### Nathan B. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Serena L. Jun 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family vacation Very nice little place. Was smaller than originally thought, could use more lighting throughout the downstairs. Also one roll of t.p. for 2 bathrooms and five guests was a bit odd. But overall enjoyed our stay. If you have littles though those stairs are steep going up to loft. Neighbor and his dog were very friendly. Easy walk to the river just be mindful of leaches when getting in hahaha. Overall was a nice stay. ##### Serena L. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie S. Jul 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This cabin was adorable. Very clean and had everything we needed. The river behind the house was beautiful. The house was perfectly located. Right up the road was a great bar and grill. When we got home to southern Illinois, my daughter realized that she left her keys on the couch upstairs. I contacted the host. They immediately got back with me and had contacted the cleaners. The cleaners found them and mailed them to us immediately. Great communication. I would highly recommend this cute place and would stay here again. ##### Stephanie S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### william R. May 29, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great central location Great Central location to Frankfort, Sleeping bear, Traverse City. No mop and the floors were dirty. Thermostat was locked and not adjustable. Had to contact management, who had to contact the owners, who operated it remotely, but still remained locked, and Michigan weather is temperamental. 78 for two days. then 42 for two days. Not convenient, indoor temps not comfortable. ##### william R. Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cozy, Secluded, Year-Round Cabin Rental With A Hot Tub!](https://www.expedia.ca/Munising-Hotels-Cozy.h27265412.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Sault Ste.
