Fall Getaway
Took the family up north to explore the nearby forests with the autumn colors on full display.... Great location right on the lake, restaurants closeby in Mackinac City, and short drive to Wilderness Park and the Tunnel of Trees. WiFi was recently installed which was great but cell service also very good in the area. We will be back!

Needs more comfortable seating
The contemporary feel is nice and all but the furniture was not comfortable at all. Which resulted in spending very little time in the living room area. Definitely would recommend getting some recliners or something. Other than that the cabin would have gotten 5 stars

Cabin by the lake
Lovely. We did miss patio furniture or any seating accommodations for outside but all in all it was Avery lovely stay. Honestly. With the lake in the back yard it is an oasis. Plus you are minutes awsy from as ll the touristy points of interests. We would love to spend a week there in late summer.

Lovely Location
This is a charming property, well situated on Paradise Lake, perfect for sunset viewing. The shared living space is quite roomy, however the furniture is not comfortable or conducive to sitting through a movie. There appears to be a wonderful outside terrace overlooking the lake, however, the timing of our visit, October, did not allow us to partake. The kitchen is well appointed, including a toaster and air fryer. There is a washer and dryer, which is a plus. The bathroom is tiny, with no space to stage any items, such as toothbrushes. The space was good for me and my husband. Unfortunately, the bedroom was cramped and the view of the lake from the bedroom was blocked by bunk beds. The main dining table is located on a glassed in, but unheated porch. This property is best suited for warm temperatures and plans for lots of outdoor activities. Be informed, there is no wifi, so bring DVDs or your own hotspot to stream.

Awesome little cabin
We stayed just one night on our motorcycle trip up the coast of Lake MI. The location is beautiful and we loved the cabin. Even the artwork is cool! It had everything we needed and we're definitely planning to come back again!

Setting & cottage = peaceful and comfortable; hosts = considerate
We enjoyed a peaceful lake setting with sights and sounds of wildlife. (A chipmunk scrambled up into my lap!) We could tell the hosts genuinely try to anticipate their guests’ needs—kayaks, comfortable outdoor furniture, cozy beds, the basic amenities. We’re coming back!

This place is adorable. My girls (age 4 and 7) loved it, it was kid-friendly, cozy, and in a cute area. The helpful suggestions about places to visit were awesome. My 4 y/o said "Best. Day. Ever." Wish we could have stayed longer, would love to go again!

Concerned and refunded
We checked in to a strong musty smell, sagging ceiling panels held together by tape, and many other disappointing aspects. We reached out to the owner who quickly refunded our stay. While we appreciate that, be advised that the listing leaves much to be desired. There are broken windows, broken screens, obvious damage to the home’s ceiling and walls. It just needs some serious care before being ready to rent.

Beautiful views//Easy access to Mackinaw City
This place is a nice getaway if you are wanting to unplug from the internet and enjoy the beautiful views of Lake Paradise. My son and I enjoyed using the available kayaks and it was a bonus for our stay. While I must have missed the details of no wifi, it turned out to be a good thing for my kids and I. We got to enjoy family time outside and enjoyed playing board games inside in the evening. There is a dvd player that my kids enjoyed watching the movies that the host has available, several kid movies (Garfield & Home Alone were the 2 we watched). I have AT&T cell service and it is spotty so be sure to have your details downloaded before then. The host was kind enough to have an additional key waiting for me when I locked myself out for the day. Additional positives are: -Comfortable Beds and Linens -Kitchen Cookware, including an Air Fryer -Full fridge and freezer -Beautiful enclosed sun room with screened windows that open -Close to small market to get the essentials -Host responds and is helpful and understanding Drawbacks -Tub only has a shower option and low water pressure -The entry door opens from the inside when locked. Make sure to immediately replace your key back to the lock box so you are not in my situation. Luckily the host was understanding and accommodating.

Cabin on Carp Lake
The stay on Carp Lake was a pleasant stay. The location is great for visiting Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. It is just a short 10 minute drive. The kitchen was great. The beds, bedding, and pillow were comfortable. The view from the living room and porch is incredible. The only thing I would change would be to make the address pop out a little more. We found the cabin based on the picture on VRBO. It wasn't until we were leaving on the last day that I saw the address on a post.

Very easy transaction/communication
If you are there for outdoor activities, property is great. Nice screened in porch. Nice deck on the lake. Unfortunately, weather kept us indoors more than we had planned. No tv unless you bring your own hotspot. Living room furniture not so comfy. Cabin could sleep 6 people easily, but bathroom is not equipped for 6. Area is very convenient to Mac City.
