Huge TVs & Comfortable Lounging!
Highly recommend this VRBO. After a long work week, it was so nice to be able to lounge on the super comfortable couches and watch a movie on the huge TV. Being able to retreat upstairs to the king bed was great for a good nights sleep. I hope to stay here again. Thanks, David!

Excellent little cottage
This was a very cute house that was super close to the main entrance for Camp Grayling. I was there to work but my family came along and we all loved the house. It was very easy to check in and out!

Absolutely Perfect
Loved this little cabin! Very clean + well done! David was super responsive + check-in and check-out was a breeze. There is a window A/C unit downstairs + an additional unit upstairs + we stayed VERY comfortable while we slept, even with warmer temps. The location is perfect-close to golf, ice cream, restaurants + stores. The neighborhood is great for a walk/run + the fire pit is a really nice, relaxing additional space on the property. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Shower has GREAT water pressure + tons of hot water availability! (Important!) Washer/dryer was awesome + we packed way less because of it! Will most definitely be back, everything about our stay was great! Thanks David!

Nice cozy Grayling cottage
This cottage is clean and cozy and has all the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom supplies well stocked. It was unusually hot and humid when we were there and the window AC unit was having a hard time keeping the house cool. A box fan or two would have helped but again, it was unusually hot and humid for Grayling. It has an enclosed front porch with comfy seats and a nice table and it was a lovely area to relax and read! The two large TV’s worked great as well. We had a lovely time and will use this cottage again if it works out for us!
