AMAZING STAY!
This was an absolutely perfect get away. Beautiful spot, a quick walk down the hill to the river, and amazing fire pit to spend the evenings! Everything was exactly as advertised, and the owner went above and beyond to accommodate us MULTIPLE times! Incredible experience, and we will be back next year! I would recommend this space to anyone!

The property is great. Lots of sleeping space and things to do in the area. The property was wonderful and check in was a breeze. Mindy was great to work with and communication was great. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a nice quiet getaway, with lots to do in the surrounding area.

Good Spot. Great Firepit!
None of the pictures showed the fire pit and it is the star of this property! The accommodations were good, but lacking a big table to eat indoors or play board games. It sleeps eight, but unless you’re outside at the huge firepit or ant the outside table on the deck, it only “feeds three or four”. Loved the location.

Great secluded cabin by the river!
Our family of eight stayed for three nights and enjoyed it immensely. The inside is well stocked with anything you need, and the outside is even better. Mindy was great and very responsive. We will go back next year!

A Treasure in the Woods
We hosted a small family reunion in this beautiful and peaceful cabin. Everything about the cabin is well done and inviting and perfect for a group that wants to be together. We loved the outdoor fire pit, and used the generous outdoor table and seating for meals, games and crafts. The kitchen has all the equipment you need and the appliances are new. Sleeping upstairs is one private room and the rest is loft style. The river is an added bonus; we saw birds, turtles, and deer; did some fishing. We ran on the country roads and hiked nearby trails. Frankfort is 20 minutes away if you need some beach time. The location is a bit remote and that was new for us but the privacy was an added bonus. The host was very available and responsive.

Great cabin in the woods
Great cabin on a beautiful 10 acres of woods with direct access to the Betsie river. All the modern comforts with a rustic touch. Fishing on the river, outdoor fire pit, kayaks, star gazing and hiking around the property were very enjoyable. Also made our way to Crystal Mountain (5-10 Minutes away) and Sleeping Bear Dunes (40-45 minutes away). Perfect amount of quiet time in the woods and enjoying these two great areas. Mindy, the property owner was very hospitable and easily accessible from booking through check out.

Amazing Log Cabin on the Betsie River
We booked here for our summer trip which included Frankfort, Crystal Lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Leland/fishtown. The cabin was beautifully decorated and very clean. Wifi and Roku TV worked great. Two enclosed bedroom spaces and an open loft with sleeping space - the fire pit was great for s'mores. Our kids loved running down the path to the river. This was a secluded woodsy property and perfect to come home to after our local adventures. Definitely would stay again!

Betsie River Property
Great location with private access to Betsie. Description understates how great the access to Betsie really is. We wanted a secluded stay for a few days following visiting Chicago but still have a ton of activities available for the kids. This place delivered. Check out the distillery, ski mountain for chair lift for mountain biking all within a couple minutes. Crystal Lake and town is 10-15 minutes and Sleeping Bear is 30-45 minutes for a great day trip.

Nice place and peaceful though led to believe river access
The cabin is nice and peaceful. Although We were far from the river and it could not be seen from the house, which we assumed. . Also the address needs to be added to the tree on private lane where all other addresses are added. Got a good vibe after communicating with the owner.
