What an awesome house! We enjoyed our stay immensely! Out of all the properties we have stayed at, this was by far the best stocked kitchen we have used. If you needed it, you could find it! We were able to cook a full French meal and eat it in the beautiful dining room!
Lake view was wonderful, we spent a lot of time on the porch where there was plenty of seating for the 7 adults we had. Location was a short drive to Petoskey and a few wineries in the area. Everyone had their own space/bathrooms and beds were very comfortable. Would gladly book again!
The house was nicely furnished with everything we needed. The bedrooms had very good beds with comfortable linens. The kitchen was well equipped. We really enjoyed the big fenced in yard for the kids. The location was good and close to the bigger towns and the beaches.
Great location, easy to get to many local destinations. There is a great pie shop a few steps down the road. Beds were comfortable and home had lots of room for groups.
A really awesome older house !! Well maintained , very clean , good communication with rental company . Would visit this same property without hesitation !! It felt like home !
Oden Home is a charming Mid-Century Cottage. It was incredibly clean which we so appreciate with children!!! It is the perfect home for several families/friends. Five bedrooms with seven bathrooms. Each bedroom had its own bathroom that provided each family their own privacy. The living and dining rooms were spacious with a dining table that was large enough for ten individuals. The kitchen had so many amenities. The hosts were fabulous and provided a guide that was detailed with great information about the cottage and surrounding area. We greatly appreciated how responsive they were to our questions. We will definitely reserve Oden House for our next family trip up north.
Family of 9 stayed at the Oden House over the Holidays. The layout and bedrooms are great for a large gathering. This was the second time renting this property and highly recommend.
Great location. Surprisingly large. Loved that every room had its own bathroom. Owners were a delight to work with and made the check in and checkout process simple and seamless.
Quaint & Quirky with more than sufficient bathrooms (we are senior women after all) with large bedrooms and sufficient dining and living areas to critique our golf game while enjoying a cocktail.
This house was wonderful for our family of 8 adults and a toddler! There were many spaces where we could spread out or all be together. The property managers were very attentive, both before and during our stay. They provided a few items that we asked about before we arrived, and the house was stocked with plenty of essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher soap, and laundry detergent. The location was close to lots of nature preserves, wineries, breweries, and if it had been warmer, water sports. Also, it was only 30 minutes to the Mackinac Island ferry.
Two of our party were working remotely and the wifi worked well for them. It was an amazing experience and I would definitely stay here again!
The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The bedrooms were big with very comfortable beds. Overall, a very nice place to stay.
We stayed at the property this past week. As the other reviews noted, the road noise is a bit loud when sleeping, but as we were aware prior to the trip, we were able to prepare. The house was very clean and offered great space. The online description of the house was spot on. We will definitely book this property again.
For ~25 years 4 couples got together for a long ski weekend in Northern MI. After many years apart we came together from as far away as Washington to enjoy a 4 day reunion. We had a wonderful time, the house fit our needs well, and it was very close to many of the places where we had built memories together.
This property was a great space for our group of seven. We loved the backyard fire pit, the view from the front porch and enjoyed meals around the large dining room table. A charming, warm house.
We had a great stay. The house has lots of character and there was plenty of room for all of us! Great location close to Petoskey and right across from the lake.
Great house for bedrooms and private bathrooms!! Absolutely a rare find if this is important. We were disappointed in the over cleanliness of the exterior of the property. We did not know how busy Rt 31 is and hearing the traffic continually was more than we expected, but this is not the listing fault. The Kitchen lacked in many areas, not quite updated as the listing stated. Overall had a dirty unorganized feel to it. There was not even enough glasses for our 6 guest. We had to use coffee cups to drink wine or cocktails. The bathrooms did not all have body soap or shampoo, had to go out an buy some. This is really a mixed review, we loved many aspects of this house but disappointed in many too. This property has SOO much more potential with a little bit more eye to details.
My three sisters and I booked this beautiful house for a long weekend. We were each able to have our own bedroom and bathroom which was great! The house was clean and welcoming with everything we needed for our stay. Beds were very comfortable, the wraparound porch was so nice, and the location was great for trips into Petosky and Mackinac City. The home is located right on US 31 and there is some traffic noise, but that didn't bother us at all. We would highly recommend this home for anyone with a larger group. Thank you!!
Great location to ski areas and a couple of nearby restaurants.
Super clean and everything was as advertised.
Only negative is road noise if you are a light sleeper.
This house was perfect for our group. We all had a lot of space and the kitchen/dining/family room were spacious and very comfortable. The communication with the property manager was wonderful. Thanks for a wonderful stay, we hope to be back!
What a wonderful stay! If you are looking book now. This place looks just like the pictures and has so much space for everyone to spread out. There were 6 people staying for a week and felt like home right away. Location is perfect to downtown Petoskey. Communication with the property manager was wonderful. Made our trip an absolute pleasure. We are already trying to figure out summer plans at this location.
Our yearly new years get away was supported by the Oden house. 15 minute dive to Nubs and Highlands, plenty of space for two families, and enough couch space for everyone to relax after a long day. Great spot to support a skiing vacation or visiting downtown Petoskey.
