We were there for nearly a month, and not once did we get bored or wish we were home. The hosts are truly wonderful people; considerate, compassionate, and big rock hounds like us. We loved being surrounded by nature, the way the place feels like walking into a home where you’ve always been comfortable, and the ceiling of stars at night.

The views of Lake Michigan were stunning and the house is perfectly set up to enjoy them. The furniture was comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and everything was very clean. The multiple levels and indoor/outdoor spaces made the home feel very spacious. Anything we might have wanted on a vacation was already there: tons of games, bikes, kayaks, beach chairs, puzzles. Communication with the owner was very easy but minimally needed as he supplies you with the most comprehensive guide to the home and the surrounding area I’ve ever received with a rental property. It was easily the best rental experience I’ve had. ##### Nichole V. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason C.

Legs Inn is 2 mins down the road. Great food and so fun! Property had a nice beach, be sure to bring some water shoes - it gets rocky about 20 feet out. Shoes made all the difference. Pretty cool to be able to go out 100 yards in Lake Michigan. Mike has just about everything you need and is very prompt with communication. Great spot for a wonderful family vacation.

We enjoyed our time at this house in Cross Village! Great views and loved the sounds of Lake Michigan. Beautiful private, wooded lot with great fire pit for roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. The beach area was right across from the street from the house and offered some of the best beach walks and sunset views we have found in Michigan. We didn’t mind the walk up the stairs/steep driveway- may be difficult for those with mobility issues. The house was a bit more rustic. The wooded lot was gorgeous but did create a bit of mess with sap on the outdoor decks and furniture. We were able to explore some awesome spots - Harbor Springs, Petoskey, Mackinaw Island. The sand dunes climb up the road was great fun. ##### Cori C. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eric C.

Aug 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Loved the location of this house - quick drives to Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Mackinac. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Access to the beach was a 2 minute walk, and was worth every step up and down the driveway…we had the entire beach to ourselves and it was beautiful! Also loved all of the extras that were already there and we didn’t have to pack - beach chairs, wagon for towing to the beach, fans, etc. ##### Stephanie M.

We enjoyed the private beach and the lovely lake view. We had some trouble with the key not working, but the owner was very responsive and helped us figure it out, even though it was very late at night! Be aware that unless you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle, you will be carrying all your belongings up 2 flights of deck stairs or up a very steep drive. This would not be good for someone with bad knees - unless you have 4 wheel drive to get up the driveway. Great trip though!! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6d6c6cf1-e897-4380-a6d4-de654ed6ab3e-1754154040569.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/77e6c35e-9449-410f-8e6d-b3f96cfe50d8-1754154042074.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jessica T.

We visited with our family and it was a perfect fit for us. The king room was so comfy and the boys loved the upstairs room and the downstairs room was perfect for the girls including their own bath. There were so many games to keep us busy in the evening. The beach was lovely but like many Lake Michigan beaches there are rocks so I recommend packing water shoes. We loved the deck and sat out there every evening after watching the sunset on the beach. We also visited our favorite spots - the beach by st. Ignatius in good hart, legs inn and pond hill farm. We had a blast. ##### Kelly S. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hannah W.

The cabin was clean, fully stocked, and just beautiful! Communication with the owner was top notch and I’d say it was above the norm. The driveway is no joke and stairs are no joke, but I think that added to its charm! Highly recommend! ##### Hannah W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy B.

Loved sitting on the front deck looking at the water. House was clean and had everything we needed. Hosts gave great communication and tips. Highly recommend! ##### Nancy B.
