The location is great as well. We enjoyed walks in the woods on the property, playing corn hole and football outside, and visiting nearby Glen Arbor for shopping, wine tasting, and hiking.

We had to go out to purchase more! Paper towel was also in short supply.Other then these small items, we all loved the Sleeping Bear Lair...

We will share and promote SB because we had such a great time. Only gave 4 starts due to the grill. The cleaning service does a great job except the grill had not been cleaned in an unusually long time. Almost a whole roll of paper towels and 2 scrubbies we had in our trip bag.Probably need to just replace that and make sure cleaning looks at it.Just noting the grill for owner reference. Do not and I mean do not let that stop you from coming here. You will only regret it if you do not book this place. I have not been this relaxed and happy in such a long time.

Reason being, the secret will be out on how wonderful this property is. It truly is the one! My family and I have been visiting Up North for years.

We had 6 adults, 2 toddlers, and 2 infants and there was plenty of space for all of us. The property was very clean, something very important to us with the babies on the ground. Check in was very easy and we had a couple of questions throughout the week that Michael was very prompt to respond to. The location was perfect, very centrally located to everything we wanted to do so nothing was more than 20-25 minutes away. The property makes you feel like you’re in the wooded mountains, but then you can drive to the beach very quickly! It really is the best of both worlds. ##### Haley B.

Location between Sleeping Bear and Traverse City was great. We even took a day trip up to Mackinac Island one day. Communication from the host was fantastic. He replied to every issue promptly. When the gas grill wasn’t working very well, he ordered a new one and had it delivered the next day. The only negative comment we have is that the grass hadn’t been mowed so we couldn’t play yard games that we had brought with us. The host tried to remedy that issue but the mowing crew never showed up. Overall, though, we would definitely recommend this property. ##### kimberly Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian C., Traverse City, Mi Jan 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Family Week This property and the host are wonderful.
