ORV Week Vacation
This was a repeat visit for three lifelong friends. We get together for this week of ORVing every year. This property is perfect for us, as the location offers easy access for this activity, as well as the comforts of home. Can't hardly wait until next year...Thank You Connie & Dean

Kindness
Owners were so kind. Home was clean and organized with plenty of amenities. The log stove was so nice and cozy! We had a slight accident in the home that the owner brought to my attention, he was very kind and understanding about it, and we were able to work through it. Highly recommend the home.

Nice place!
Very nice and clean place! The description could have a little more when it comes to what you are supplied…towels, starter toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, etc. These things are supplied, but if we were staying for a longer period you would definitely need to bring extras. The location is great for riding the trails. We didn’t check out the dock slip because of weather. Had a great time and the place felt nice and roomy! Thank you for a great weekend!!

ORVing with Old Friends
This property was fantastic for three guys that are all in there 70's that still love to ride our ATV and SxSides through the woods and area. This property has everything to make it convenient and easy access to the trails and the area is friendly to ride on most streets and roads on the area. Quieter subdivision neighborhood that fits into a great time for relaxing. The communication with the host/owner was quick and easy. I can't say enough good things about this week long stay, other than we'll be looking forward to enjoying it again. Thanks again for the Great Stay👍😊

Best experience!
We loved everything! The owners came out within hours of there being an issue with the sink leaking, the place was comfortable and very clean. We stay at rentals every year and I’ve yet to find one this clean, we loved it so much we extended our stay. We will definitely be back.

St Helen Michigan
We loved the house! The layout was perfect for my husband and I and our daughter and son in law. The short walk to the lake and boat launch will be amazing when we bring the boat next time. We will definitely be back! The only small complaint is the light in the kitchen, my 6’4” son in law kept hitting his head on it.

Weekend in St Helen
We had an excellent stay. They had everything we needed for our weekend. It was close to the trails like we hoped. We were also happy to find the board games since it rained the majority of our stay. I hope to book it again in the near future.

Great stay near the boat launch
Had a great time at the house! It was clean, spacious & very close to the boat launch. Would recommend a taller light in the kitchen though (too many headbutts:)
Thanks for the awesome stay!

Relaxing Getaway After Trail Riding
We had a wonderful weekend getaway with friends (total of 2 couples) to do some trail riding. The Grouse Cottage was clean and tidy. We loved that 2 of the 3 bedrooms were on separate sides of the house with the living space between. We felt very at home.

Very Unhappy
I received notification 4 hours before check in that the reservation was cancelled due to it being double booked and was originally offered a motor home for 10 people. We were very disappointed with this offer and found somewhere else to stay. We were then offered another house but it was still too small for the 10 of us. We also did not receive a full refund of what we paid. Very upset with our service and do not plan to book from vrbo again.
