It was a beautiful location and pleasant for the most part. The bathroom has no exhaust fan and mold around the toilet, definitely an issue with my being pregnant. The listing stated WIFI which was important for us as our son was with babysitters who couldn't contact us at the cabin. Wasn't nearly clean enough for being charged a cleaning fee and having to sweep before we left.
What an amazing stay, this place is a little slice of heaven. Whether it's relaxing on the property around the fire, or out on the dock, you'll love this place. They have the house stocked with basically anything you could need and take very good care of it as well. Hope to come back!
Nice place to stay for a week while in town for a seminar. Shades in the bedroom would have been nice as the sheer curtains let in a lot of light. There is very low cell signal, so this should probably be noted in the description for those who may have emergency calls they have to be available for. Owners are very nice and respectful of privacy.
The house was very cute and quaint. It's on a really nice river. It brought back a lot of good childhood memories and was a very comfortable stay. Being a dog friendly place to stay was really nice and accommodating. Upgrades were nice and the place was very clean.
We came for a birthday weekend & ended with realizing we all needed a calm peaceful weekend. The house was perfect to relax & have fun on the kayaks. Enjoyed having coffee on the dock in the morning & end the day with a cocktail. This is truly a diamond. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
Had a great stay. It was a nice base for our excursions to Mackinac Islabd and the UP. It was nice being able to catch fish right from the dock on the property.
Was very much looking forward to peace and quiet, like the listing boasted. There is a house being built 40 ft from the cabin. All we heard was air guns, hammers, and a construction crew cursing at one another from 8am to 5 pm daily.
We were surprised that we had to have our own towels/sheets ( finally found it last on the page) - wish it would have been at the top of the list as we were unprepared and had to borrow from family. Also, we had our elderly father with us and found the place not very user-friendly for him. One suggested would be a grab bar near the toilet.
Overall I'd say the description of the property was accurate. As far as it being clean, I would say that the outdoor space could have been swept and wiped down better. The chairs and table had to be wiped down to use them. (This could be due to rain and storms prior, but not sure) The inside was clean and neat. We did encounter someone else's sheets in the washer when I went to use it. I decided not to do wash. We loved the 3 season porch and sat out there in the mornings with coffee. Also a great space for our dog.
Canin is newly remodeled with easy access to river and black lake. aside from a bit of a cold rainy start we enjoyed the property and the surrounding area. property was clean and well maintained.
Not a complaint but to let you know the front left burner on the stove is very slow in heating up. Also you have an outlet in the living room without a cover on it. Overall we enjoyed the stay, even went kayaking in the rain when we got there. Also checked out the falls you mentioned in your guide and checked out the local eating establishments.
Property is off main roads. Very peaceful. Had to basically leave property for internet or phone service. I found it nice to disconnect. Just too bad that it rained for most of our stay.
This is a very nice place to stay, clean,quiet, beautiful setting, very peaceful with plenty of space and trees. I would stay here again.
Thank you Calvin and Carol.
We had a great time fishing and kayaking on the river. The property was a nice place to stay. We could not get the drier to work. Cell phone service was not great, and WiFi was not set up yet. But it was nice to unplug and enjoy nature for a few days.
This cottage was perfect for what we needed! Our daughter had a softball tournament in Cheboygan. The place was very clean and cute! Bathroom was very nicely updated. Itâs a retro mobile home thatâs updated. Perfect spot right on the river. The owners were amazing and have the house right behind the cottage. Great people. The neighbors on the other side were quiet. We were told by the owners that the neighbors arenât very dog friendly. The lot is smaller so just keep that in mind if you bring your dog. You have to make sure that they stay on the cottage property. Also, if you plan on fishing right there itâs very shallow so no fish right at the cabin. The lake and dam arenât very far away so you can go fishing there. We didnât have time to use the kayaks but they were there and very nice. Bring sheets and towels, as those arenât provided. Highly recommend this place for a nice get away!!
We had a blast here. Vary quiet relaxing yet kids had a blast. The river is amazing great neighbors. Awesome place that we plan to book again. If you have a boat I would think pontoon or smaller fishing boat would work amazing. Our boat was too big for the river but was great for the lake. Tons of pan fish caught right in the river from the dock and then some good fishing in black lake. Also alot of Tubing fun on the lake. Super laid back and relaxing. Kids absolutely loved the river vary clean and shallow for swimming. Over all a great trip.
Absolutely loved our stay at Peaceful Cabin. It was clean! It lived up to its name of "Peaceful Cabin" and was very relaxing and quite. Loved being close to the water and central to various cities in Michigan. We were roughly 25 miles to the UP which was perfect! Will be renting again.
