Ski weekend
Accommodations and location were fantastic. Short 10-15 min drive to Nubs or Highlands. Well stocked kitchen and comfy beds. Hot tub too hot for me though! Beautiful place and nicely decorated, perfect for our small crowd of 7. Thanks so much ☺️

Beautiful northern getaway
Beautiful property, fully equipped kitchen, huge living and dining room with walk-around fireplace on the main floor and second den and TV room on the lower floor. Short drive to the ski slopes and the hot tub is the perfect way to relax after a good day of skiing. Nice outdoor deck area that would be fun in warmer weather. Everyone staying with us were quite impressed and agreed this was an excellent choice for our weekend up north.

Absolutely Amazing
Beautiful home, clean and comfy! Amazing rental and rental company. The views of the woods from this home are stunning. Used the hot tub only once as we were too tire most evenings, but definitely a plus.

Lovely Home
This home was really lovely - very comfortable, nicely decorated and extremely well appointed. The location, however, was too far off the beaten path for us. Also, the amenities fee was outrageous, especially given that renters could not reserve tee times in advance for golf.

Wow - Spectacular Home!
Our experience was spectacular! My family of six stayed for a week in July 2022. We had a number of celebrations including our wedding anniversary along with three birthday's. Our teenage children LOVED the VRBO as much as we did. The management team was so thoughtful and on top of things! They had balloons, fresh flowers, and a cake when we arrived! They even had a special bag with chocolate chip cookies and gourmet salt & pepper shakers, all as gifts. The website photos will entice you & it’s equally beautiful in person. I love interior design so was overjoyed to see such gorgeous furnishings, many from Restoration Hardware & Pottery Barn. The beds were some of the most comfortable & luxurious beds we’ve slept on before and the bedding was soft, warm, and cozy. Every single bedroom had exquisite furniture and mattresses that you would splurge to purchase for your family! The bath towels were great and the kitchen was fabulous. We had every amenity needed except food (😊) and a few basic things (like sugar for coffee) but we bought some & left it there. Otherwise, we cooked, just as we did at home and enjoyed all utensils, appliances, wine glasses, knives, cookery, etc., etc.,. — all high end. The indoor fireplaces, outdoor gas-lit fire table (for s’mores & warmth on chillier nights), along with the 3 season room were excellent additions. The washer & dryer machines worked great; and the showers had great water pressure and were beautifully appointed. The dark hardwood floors were covered in beautiful area rugs which made it cozy and so attractive in its neutral, inviting palate of colors. Everything was so fresh, clean & new. The architecture inside was also stunning. We enjoyed the well appointed, comfortable furniture and relaxation after long days of sailing and other adventures. The home is in a pretty, forest covered neighborhood just outside of Birchwood Country Club. While we are golfers, we didn’t golf this trip but the course looked well groomed & very nice. We saw deer, fox, and other wildlife outside the big windows. We hiked on the neighborhood trail and enjoyed the woods yet the house never felt dark & gloomy. There was excellent interior lighting along with natural light that poured in through so many windows. Some of the ambient lighting was well placed & very pretty. The house is in a very private setting, yet it’s close to Petoskey, Charlevoix & Traverse City. We give it 5 stars! We will be back!
