The location is within 2 miles of the trails and riding along the road to the trails was never a problem. The view out to the canal was awesome and I am betting spending mornings and evenings on the big deck enjoying your morning coffee or evening brew would be fantastic. ##### Sean F. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Katrina A., Harbor Springs, Michigan Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Decent place to stay The stay itself was great. We had a couple issues, one with the outdoor fire pit, I had requested wood, so we could have a fire and the property manager was concerned about fire danger, when we arrived the wood was there but the fire pit had weeds 2 feet tall all the way around it. I notified her immediately and she said she would have it cleaned up so we could have a fire the second night of our stay, this was never done…so we never had a fire but we were expected to pay for the wood…which we did not. Hopefully they got the deck fixed also… ##### Katrina A. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Keith L. Aug 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Misleading The property does not live up to expected VRBO standards. We found the listing misleading. The listing should clearly state that there is NO cable or internet, there are NO toiletries (bathroom soap, shampoo, simple things for sure but missed when not there) and there is a tenant living downstairs. Also we found it odd that throughout the unit (living room, dining room, bedroom) crafts were displayed for sale with a box clearly marked for payment. Lastly there was a long list of what the travelers couldn't do and what we needed to do upon leaving but not a word of welcome or a list of things to see or places to eat. Little things make a difference and leave an impression, unfortunately ours was not a good one. ##### Keith L. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Darin M. Sep 20, 2017 #### Really should advertise appropriately The house was clean and in decent location from town. However, just a little under 4 weeks before our booking we had to call Heather to ask where our contract was since we heard nothing yet from her. About 2 weeks before we were to arrive we received the contract and it mentioned renting of the tree house and the studio below the house. This was never told to us and was not even mentioned in her advertisement for her rental. We have 2 young kids and were planning on staying a week. The solitude and the tree house were part of the decision making in renting this place. When we called Heather, she apologized and said she would make it so no one else could book the tree house or the studio.. although she did inform us that the studio was rented for at least one of the nights we were there. It was too late at this point to look for other rentals since we were 2 weeks away. When we arrived we found that there was no cable. The advertisement stated had TV, never stated that there was NO cable. As most places you pay for what we paid for normally you have at least cable, and the advertisement of TV can be misleading. We didn't know we would need to rent videos and NO TV until we arrived. We also asked if there was a tub to give baths in as that wasn't clear on advertisement, and it did have a bath tub. However, the caster or whatever it you call it was chipping away and the tub's plug did not hold water. My husband was in contact with Heather when we were there about the TV and shared he felt this was another misleading advertisement. My husband was just letting her and he has a right too especially for what we paid and we felt we had already been mislead with not knowing there was a studio and a tree house that was to be rented. Heather became unprofessional with us and stated that we could just leave her place, but we had not place to go. While we were there the tree house was rented out 2 nights and same with the studio. Heather had lied about her blocking that or she was upset that we were upset and unblocked it to rent out to show us she had the upper hand. Either way, we will never rent form her nor will we recommend her. Some of the locals were not surprised when we shared our experience with them. In the 10 years of traveling to UP to visit my husband's family there, that was our worst experience renting ever. And it all has to do with misleading advertisement to make a buck. ##### Darin M. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Robin G. Jul 13, 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Completely Inaccurate Description, Dirty and NOT Secure The living room is very cozy & decorated nicely. There is a TV but there is no cable, no satellite or local channels available. It is not a smart TV. There is a DVD/VCR available but only a handful of children's VHS tapes and fishing bloopers. We only found 1 game and no books. It says there is WiFi & when we arrived there was a WiFi password written on a board but it was not correct for any available networks. When I asked about this she said there is no WiFi. This was a big problem for us, as my husband had to work remotely while we were there. There is a tenant occupying the space next to the garage. She said he was harldy ever there which was not true. His unit has access to the laundry area which provides him access to the unit you are in, because other than the garage door, the doors in your unit do not lock when you are away. You can lock his door from your side so I asked the owner about it as soon as we checked in but she did not respond so we locked it. The next day or so he made us unlock it to do his laundry and I texted the owner regarding and it took awhile for her to respond, by this time we were gone and he had access to our stuff. Cleanliness and toiletry items were lacking. We found mouse poop in a cupboard and 2 drawers under the sink. The towels are rough and old, some were fraying and falling apart, no hand towels, very few washcloths, hardly any tp or hand soap and the cold water did not work in the master bathroom and 1 room had dirt in the sheets. ##### Robin G.

We rode snowmobiles rite from the house and had about 1 mile of road shoulder to the trail. There was just enough snow for us to ride shoulder.

Lots of room, nice house with huge deck and room for 2 trailers to park. No TV, internet, grill, coffee filters or cookie sheets just an FYI. But we brought our own grill so it wasn't a big deal. The beds are a little worn, but we would definitely stay here again! Thanks Heather! ##### Danielle W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Samuel S.

Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Cheryl C. Aug 30, 2021 Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Not what was advertised - No internet No Television We were in town and need to work remotely. The advertisement stated Internet and Television. We had neither internet or television for 10 days. Contacted the owner as soon as we moved in and not a word of response for days. Then she told us 1/2 through our stay that she would get the internet router from the unit below that she also owned, again no response. We left with no communication from the owner. The lack of customer service and the fact that she changed the advertisement after I confronted her was enough for us to give her a 1 star, no matter what we felt about anything else. I saw notes (multiple) from prior tenants who complained about the lack of television and internet, but it was a major inconvenience for us to find someplace else to work the entire time we were in town. The owner was not responding to calls, texts or emails, unlike her ad says that she lived in town and would be available the entire time we were there - that was not true at all. If you don't care about the internet, give the place a try, it was roomy. ##### Cheryl C. Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim T.
