The owners of the house even reached out to us that we could check in early because of a winter storm getting ready to hit the area so we were able to get on the road earlier in the day.

The pictures did not give us the feel the want to be there until we actually stepped through the door. Well done." - "We had a great time at River House. The property was very clean and welcoming. We had one slight problem with the egg grill, but Kenyatta was very accommodating and even though the part that was broken couldn’t be fixed during our stay because of something out of her control, she was right on it. The house was beautifully decorated and clean. If we ever go back to that area of the state, we’d love to stay there again!"

"Exactly what you think of when you picture a cabin in the woods ! Clean,comfortable, nice big porch with large fire pit area. Everywhere you looked you saw small things that made you realize the local host really wanted all your needs met"
-Nancy August 2023

"We had a great stay! It was a beautiful, quiet cabin in the woods. We enjoyed cooking campfire meals, visiting nearby lakes, going out to breweries and wineries, and relaxing back at the cabin with a good book. I also really appreciated the wifi, as I had to do some Zoom calls. The kitchen was also really well equipped with pots, pans, utensils - honestly one of the best stocked kitchens (even though there was no dishwasher) I've had an a rental, which was really great for us because we have food allergies in our family and cooked all our meals at the cabin."
-Katie July 2023

"Exactly as described. Private, spacious space close to lake and town. Exactly what I was looking for."
-Emily July 2023

- "Very nice property and very private. Close to town. Would love to stay again." - "Enjoyable wooded lot away from the bustle of the area. Less than an hour to Mackinaw City or Harbor Springs and under 30 minutes to Walloon Lake and Petoskey. " - "This little cabin is located a short drive from Indian River. It has 3 bedrooms with a full kitchen and living room. The rooms were clean. Linens were provided. If you want to have a peaceful stay without any noise or neighbors, this is it. We enjoyed a fire pit and watching the fireflies. This site does not have a gas grill, but has a charcoal grill. We brought our own grill, so no issue for us. We brought our boat and played on the lakes for the week."

- "This place was so nice. The house was clean and the rooms spacious. The house is very welcoming, cutely decorated and easy to feel at home in. It has a great front porch facing the lake, and a nice picnic table, also out front…the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee. The fire pit out back with chairs and marshmallow sticks provided made for great evenings of making s’mores and memories with our granddaughters! We enjoyed seeing the geese, ducks and swans with their babies swimming in the lake and canal.We visited Burt lake and went to Aloha park both approximately 10 minutes from the house. We also made the trip to Mackinac only a short 30 minute drive. It is so close to a lot of northern Michigan attractions we just ran out of time. We did have a couple of rainy days that we spent indoors playing the games provided.The kitchen was clean and had all the necessary equipment and utensils to cook. Dishwasher pods and dish soap were provided. The house is located in a very quiet neighborhood.Kris and Karen were the perfect hosts. Kris was in contact before,(giving us the code to get in), during( checking to make sure we didn’t have any problems with check in)and after our stay( just to wish us safe travels) We even got a sweet little thank you gift.We would absolutely recommend this place, and will definitely be staying there again."

*** NEED MORE SPACE ? -------->>>>

****** PLEASE NOTE ****** The Treehouse is NOT AUTOMATICALLY INCLUDED. We only rent the treehouse to guests who have already reserved the A-frame cabin. The additional charge is $100 per night. If you wish to reserve the treehouse in addition to the A-frame cabin, just let us know and we will request this from you after you have booked your stay As there is no bathroom in the treehouse, guests staying in the treehouse will need to use the cabin bathroom. It is 30 feet away and we have excellent outdoor lighting on timers and both doors use electronic keypads for easy nighttime access. Though the a-frame and treehouse together can accommodate 6 people for sleeping, we do not recommend bringing parties of greater than 4 adults, due to the small floor plan and limited indoor seating of the a-frame which is a tiny home.
