Charming cabin on the river
We stayed 2 nights and very much enjoyed this charming cabin. We found it very cozy and nice. The host provided so much to anticipate guest needs, including many kitchen items, spices, coffee, etc. Everything was in Good working order. We especially loved watching the river, the campfire fit outside, and looking at the stars from the dock. We would like to return. The cabin is close to a road, but there was not a great deal of road noise. Excellent property! excellent working order. We loved

By the Stream
Although this little renovated cabin is very near the Twin Bridge road it was a great spot. Literally less than 50 feet away from the Ausable River. Very well appointed with all sorts of trout decor right down to the dishes. Nice touches like foil in the drawer and good utensils and potsa dn pans. We did not use the TV but did use the internet. Only thing we would add is some juice glasses that can be used for juice or wine. We would recommend and would use again if in the area. Next time will bring a fly rod.

River Cabin Paradise
Very nice cabin on the river with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The welcome basket full of goodies was a nice extra touch. Close to Grayling and Gaylord for shopping and elk viewing. We had a wonderful time and would stay here again!

College Friends Weekend Reunion
Myself, 3 girlfriends, and a 6m.o. baby spent 2 nights here. It was cozy and the sound of the river was absolutely lovely. We grilled out the 1st night. The next day we hiked at Hartwick Pines, ate dinner at Paddle Hard Brewing, had a bonfire next to the river, and played card games. It was such a cute little cabin, and we had fun counting all the fish in the house!

Not what i expected!
The property and location of this property was not what i expected. There is a house very close that you THINK is the home you rented as you pull up. It is very run down and a lot of junk outside of it. Also, the house is very close the road and the 'view' to the right is the road/underpass. There are no comments on either of these things in the reviews. I will admit that the location along with the house next door did create a bit of an uneasy feeling with me. The inside was cute enough. The water trickles out of the sink faucet but the shower works well. I am a light sleeper and the old heater turning on and off did keep me up at night. Overall I would probably not stay at this particular property again.

elk hunt
We had a nice stay there. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed. Everything was nice and clean and comfortable. We couldn't access the TV for some reason. I did try to contact the local caretaker earlier in the week a couple of times, left a message twice but didn't get a call back. However, the VRBO staff answered my questions. We had a comfortable stay.

Great Little Getaway
A cute, updated little cottage. The owners have taken the time to think of every detail/amenity. While internet was available, it was slow and made streaming a movie difficult. We just played games and had a campfire instead (plenty of wood available, but needed kindling)! Will definitely consider returning.
