Bike path goes in front of property too. Owners are on property but quiet and separate. Very accessible if you need them though. Pretty property and decent-sized for 3-4 people. Lots of animals on the walls. Toilet is very slow and difficult, which makes it hard for multiple people to use with only one bathroom. Property looked like it hadn’t been cleaned again prior to our arrival, but overall was fairly clean. Owners left a nice arrival gift too! ##### Caitlin H.

I would not like to stay there if it was a hot day/night though. The AC is very inadequate. We had a cool weekend, but one day we had to use the AC. The place never cooled down. Luckily, we were gone most of the day, and it cooled off outside at night. Sink had some crap left in it. The floor was a little dusty. I would definitely stay here again, and I have already recommended it to several other people. Thanks for making such a great place available to the public! ##### Cheryl G.

It was quiet and peaceful. Soothing breezes. The large property is surrounded by mature trees. There's a spacious deck to relax, read, enjoy a beverage, and listen to the sounds of nature. There are no noisy neighbors because you are staying on the property. The house has a woodsy decor. It features a spacious combination kitchen and living room, a suitable bathroom, and two large bedrooms. There are 2 TVs, one with local channels and another with Roku. The location fit our needs for the bike riding, golf, wineries, breweries and touring the area. Al and Janet were terrific hosts. They answered our texts in a timely manner, and we had friendly conversations with them on the grounds. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone who is interested in getting away from the fast-paced world. ##### Barbara B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy D.

The price was affordable, property clean, and the location was within an hour or less of the surrounding areas my sis-in-law and I wanted to visit. We loved passing through the tree lined driveway to find the Treehouse, nestled around the woods. The view of Autumn's vibrant colors from the deck were amazing. The open floor plan welcomes you into a cozy setting. There were stuffed wildlife around the house. (Excellent craftsmanship). The pellet stove was easy to operate and provided a warm glow and warmth. There were plenty of towels, and extra blankets/pillows if needed. One of the highlights was the beds - so comfortable! We heard their puppy, Ginger, but never got a chance to meet her. I would definitely go back. ##### Kathy D.

The space is large and open with a lovely deck looking out over a large garden and field of trees. We had everything we needed and then some to be comfortable, cook a few meals and sleep well. The location was great for us as we enjoyed hiking and bicycling in the area. We highly suggest the Little Traverse Wheelway from Petoskey to Harbor Springs. Much of it is along the bay with beautiful views. Young State Park offers hiking trails as well as The Hill, which was close by. Janet was very responsive to our questions and even printed out a couple pages about hikes in the area just for us! We were invited to hike their property as well and we did! Their dog, Lucy, is very sweet and well-trained and we enjoyed her greeting us upon arrival home each day. We had a great breakfast at Sunnyside in Boyne City and a delicious dinner at Barrel Back on Walloon Lake - what a view! There are many wineries and several microbreweries in the area. We enjoyed the wines at Mackinaw Trail Winery and Brewery as well as the microbrews at Burnt Marshmallow. The establishments in the area went above and beyond in following COVID 19 guidelines to and we felt safe. ##### Janis E.
