Pleasantly surprised
The cottage was exactly as described in the listing. Very clean and comfy. Easy check in. Any questions we had were answered right away. The bear decor was so cute. There is a bakery/pizzeria literally 300 steps down the road that has incredible food. Would like to come again when we can stay longer!

Quaint cabin in the woods
This cabin is pretty awesome. A few things could get fixed up, but you can see they are working on the cabin. The one and only large knock on this place, firewood is not provided until November. Be prepared to run over to KEO on County Road 612 to grab 5 bunldles of wood for 25 bucks. Overall though, the trails are cool to explore, and the fall colors were amazing! We will be back in the future.

Fun times in Kalkaska
We had a very enjoyable stay. Very charming place with everything you need. We came to ride the ATV trails. Access to the trail system is about 2 miles away. Nikki and Pam are very responsive and helpful with questions we had about the cabin and area. We will definitely be back as there are so many trails that we didn’t have time to discover. Don’t hesitate to give this place a try!! You won’t be disappointed!!

Great cabin but no walking to the lake to fish as it’s all private !
Host Pam is absolutely amazing . She goes above and beyond to make your stay amazing .
FYI says 2 min walk to the lake but want you to know that’s not a usable point at the lake as it’s all private on that side of the lake

Lazy Bear takes the cake!
Great location for time on trails and lakes! The covering of trees kept us cool on hot summer days. Ample parking for trailers. The neighborhood was peaceful. A delicious pizzeria and bakery was just 2 blocks away, The cabin and outdoor patio was spacious, comfortable and accommodating. And the bonus building was perfect for our grown daughter's family with little ones. Highly recommend this lovely place!

Perfect spot for us. Everyone in area is so friendly. We would definitely stay again if in the area. Great little public beach area nearby, water was warm and views were beautiful. My son enjoyed the privacy of the detached cabin.
