My husband wanted to take me on a nice vacation for my Birthday, and we had a lot of fun staying in this cabin. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We had everything we needed. The sun coming up in the morning was beautiful and we also enjoyed the kayaks. Overall, we had an amazing stay and will return.
Great cabin for a getaway to explore the UP! We enjoyed kayaking and a paddle boat, along with a great fire pit and provided wood! The host was easy to contact for any questions and provided a great stay with all the amenities. We had hoped for better fishing, but our only catch was a 36 inch Northern right by the dock!
It was great, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!Everything was exactly as described, right on the water, and equipped with all the necessary amenities.The Wi-Fi was excellent, especially when phone reception was not at its best.It is a lovely little retreat, offering a countryside atmosphere while still being conveniently close to any essential services. There are numerous hiking trails in the vicinity and nearby, along with many activities available within a short distance of the cabin.
This beats staying in a hotel any day. The cabin was perfect, clean, and had everything available that you would need. We just needed to bring clothes and food. Stacy and Carl were wonderful hosts! We had a plumbing issue our first night but they were promt in their response to fix the issue. My kids had a blast with the kayaks and loved having a fire every night.
Traveling with 3 adults, 3 kids 1-13 and 2 dogs and we all fit. Cottage was very clean, air conditioner worked wonderfully and communication with the host was prompt. The kids loved the fishing, kayaks and paddle boats. The neighbors were great and very friendly. I highly recommend Van Cleve park and Gladstone beach if your traveling with kids. Even the neighborhood dog âGusâ was welcoming
Charming little cottage just a short distance from the water. We enjoyed a morning of kayaking and then checked out the local lighthouses. Exploring Escanaba was on our afternoon agenda. Great lttle town! Spent the evening at the cottage. The place offered us everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The front porch was a nice place to hang out before the sun set. The place was very clean and set up to meet all of our needs. Excellent communication with our hostess when I had questions. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
Check in and out was great, communication with host was fast and easygoing! Perfect for a getaway to the UP. We were about an hour from everything, Escanaba was so close!
We had a pretty good week considering the weather wasnât the best.
The cabin was small but it was all we needed! It was clean, well stocked, and right on the water!
The only downside was the water was a bit shallow so it wasnât ideal for our 20 ft deep V Ranger boat to get to the dock. It was also a bit of a struggle to find a place to put the trailer once we did get the boat in. However, the neighbors are quite nice and allowed us to use their area. Other than that, we had a great time and caught a few fish!
It was also nice to meet Stacey in person as we donât usually know who we are renting from!! Thanks again Stacey!
The place is small but cozy! The area felt safe especially for the children. Stacy was so sweet and had great communication with us! We got to kayak for the first time that was so fun and the water there and the areas just so beautiful! The moon was huge and full. It was a pleasant view while sitting next to the bonfire!!! Will definitely be back!!!
We loved the cabin, how clean it was, how it had everything we needed and more (even chocolate!) and would not hesitate to book again! We were very comfortable. A good find! Thank you!
Some friends and I were on a motorcycle ride in the UP and this place fit our needs. It is on the smaller side, so I would no more than 2 couples. The lake is right there and we were able to enjoy our nights sitting outside, watching the wildlife.
The cabin was clean and cozy! It was exceptionally hot during the day, so the A/C was a blessing! The neighbors were so nice and welcoming to us and our golden retriever!
While the cottage was cute and clean, the water inside was nasty and rusty smelling! Shower was too small, kept bumping arms on walls. Couldnât fish from the docks, too shallow lots of seaweed and reeds. Overall, is was a beautiful view everyday.
We had a fabulous time, highly recommend to anyone who loves the water and wants to relax.
The cabin was really nice, it had everything we needed. We were close to the water and got to fish, go kayaking and paddle-boating. We didn't want to leave, had a great time.
Wewould have liked to do more boating but instead we played tourist more than we usually do. Found some great restaurants, visited a dispensary for the first time. Checked the art scene (it's minimal) Our host Stacy was pleasant and responsive.
We usually go to different places year to year but may have to re-think it.
Our little family of 3 had a wonderful stay here! The cabin was absolutely perfect with everything we could have needed... and more! We had out 2 year old with and it was a perfect time. Close to Gladstone for convenience and also felt like we were in the middle of nowhere. We will be coming back.
