- "This was an accidental hit when looking for an overnight stay between Traverse and Albion while traveling with my wife. Overall, it was a really sweet relaxing stay. Weather was flawless, lake was glass, party shop had plenty of wine… Maybe a little pricey for some for what you’re getting (it’s tiny vs motel), but if you’re adventurous it’s pretty neat. " - "Unique night out. First time to the greater fife lake area" - "This little houseboat is adorable! It is tiny, but was perfect for my daughter and me. I love Fife Lake, so to stay on this charming little place, letting the waves rock me to sleep was perfect! I would stay there again...a little pricy, but still perfect."

This was our second stay at a place hosted by Jeff and all we can say is that Jeff does stays the way it should be done. Our stay at the Bradford felt like a home away from home. From style to amenities to cleanliness and everything in between, it was perfect. This will be our go to place for Crystal Mountain ski trips for years to come! John & Krystal
"The place is beautiful and elegant inside, not over the top but very nice touches that give it that extra thought. Also that view out back is to die for! Great place to wake up and enjoy your coffee on the surprisingly large back patio. Very pleased with the place." Pamela
In our current times you will find reassuring we go to great lengths to make sure the place is cleaned properly and that on very frequent occasions between guests we perform a Ozone treatment on the place for that extra step to be safe and clean. Ozone is amazing, with the SARS virus scientist discovered that Ozone treatments kill 99.8% of Virus's. Also the entrance to the place is from outside NO inside hallways to walk down. With SELF CHECK-IN!

Here are some THINGS TO CONSIDER before renting.
#1 NO PARTIES are permitted in our Condo or on our property at any time during your stay.
#2 Our Condo is nice but its not perfect for all people, even though we have put lots of effort into this place there are always small what seem like trivial issues to most that really upset others such as, there is no dishwasher, This is a Condo so at times there will be neighbor noise.
#3 We ask all our guests to respect the neighbors and to not be loud or yell or play loud music inside and outside the building at all times during their stay. We expect our Guests to be quiet after 11:00 PM. So if you intend to behave like a party animal, our place is not for you but if you intend to behave like a resident, you should love your stay.
#4 We have a Smart TV with NO cable, we have a Antenna which provides 18 channels like ABC NBC CBS etc all in 4K, we also provide a Netflix subscription with endless viewing options.
Now that this is clear, let's get to the description of the place!
The Bradford is located in Interlochen right off US 31, the center point of activities in the Grand Traverse region. We can accommodate 4 GUESTS.
The Bradford features a kitchen that is fully equipped with all the essentials such as MICROWAVE, POTS & PANS, COFFEE MAKER, TOASTER, BLENDER, SLOW COOKER and your basic kitchen items to cook a nice meal and Coffee, Creamer & Sugar.
This is a 1 BEDROOM unit with a KING SIZE bed the living room has a queen size sleeper sofa & all the linens you will need. 55” Smart TV, 100+Mbps WIFI . The bathroom has a FULL SIZE TUB/SHOWER HAIR DRYER, IRON & BOARD and a WASHER & DRYER to take care of your laundry needs.
Because of the close proximity to The Interlochen Center for the Arts just maybe you could catch a amazing concert while in our area. In the event you are not aware of the Academy, we highly recommend you do a search,
***Attending a special event and you know others in need of lodging, Inquire for our
other listings and availability
- "This condo had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom/laundry and bedroom for a great stay. Wonderful décor with comfortable furniture and artwork. The location is perfect on a small, private lake. Easy to park out front and keyless entry is so nice. No keys to keep track of. Jeff was great with communication and left info out about the condo, TV, area restaurants, things to do nearby and check-out procedures. We would stay here again. Highly recommend!"

Loved every minute of our stay here." - "Very peaceful" - "The yurt is definitely bigger than we expected so that was great! It was very home like and we enjoyed that. The outhouse bathroom was so clean and actually smelled good like fresh cut wood. We actually weathered a pretty decent size storm our first night and it was cool that the yurt held up just like a house would! The property was big and provided privacy. It is close to the interstate so we did hear highway traffic all night but other than that the stay was perfect! We will be making trips back for sure!"

- "We have never been to South Haven and wanted to check it out. I loved it! The campground was amazing and the host was wonderful to work with. She made us feel welcome!" - "It was very relaxing an the owners where very friendly nice place" - "This is our second time at hidden ponds but Raylene’s RV was simply the best. She had everything you could imagine you would need and beyond! She even had fruit and popsicles ready for the kids upon arrival. The beds and bedding were so comfortable, even the kids didn’t get out of bed until 11am! She also provided plenty of linens for everyone. The RV is in a great location, not too far from the pool and park, and located right on a fishing pond with a cute little dock near by. We all had a great time fishing, and everyone caught multiple fish! Hidden ponds is a great place to stay when planning a trip to south haven, its less than 10 minutes from town so you can enjoy all the perks town has to offer, then after a quick ride back you can enjoy all the perks the campsite has to offer, which made it easier to peel the kids away from the beach by saying they can go in the pool when we got back. We had a great time and already plan on returning next year if it is available! It rained almost the entire time of our stay, yet we still had an amazing time thanks to Raylene and her camper! Thank you sooo much for sharing your little slice of heaven with us!!"

Welcome to Yurt at Waterloo! (formerly Yurt at Havenswood) Very peaceful and private Yurt in the heart of the Waterloo Recreation Area Grass Lake, Michigan. This 16' Yurt sits on a 12 acre wooded lot. Perfect way to get the camping experience without being on top of your neighbors. You will not find a quieter place with so many great things to do within 10 minutes.
We are surrounded by hundreds of miles of trails in the Waterloo Conservation area. Maps provided. There is a trail head on our street a few hundred feet from the yurt. You will have a private driveway and parking area. Plenty of privacy for campfire nights and deck lounging while enjoying the sounds of nature. You will not find more private camping and serenity!
The yurt sleeps a maximum of 4 adults, with twin size bunk beds and a full size futon. The 8 foot picnic table compliments the fire pit with grilling grate. Rustic outdoor living at its finest. Very clean outhouse near Yurt.
Private drive and parking
We completely respect the needs and desires of our guests. We are available if ever they need anything, but we have also done our best to create a totally private environment.
We are in the center of so many popular Michigan hot spots. We are 30 minutes west of Ann Arbor and 45 minutes south of Lansing. We are 15 minutes east of downtown Jackson, and just minutes from the quaint downtown of Grass Lake.
As far as our Neighborhood goes, we are in the Waterloo Preservation Area. Surrounded by hundreds of miles of hiking, running and biking trails. The Portage Lake Campground is only 5 minutes away with lots of options for swimming, boating, fishing, disc golf and other outdoor type festivities, along with a beach and private showers during season.
There is also the small Welch Lake less than .5 miles away that is fantastic for fishing, small boat, and kayaking. Kayaks and trailer provided for a fee.
As dog lovers, we welcome you to bring up to 2 furry friends! BUT... common courtesy is a must. This includes picking up waste (bags provided) and not leaving them unattended in Yurt. If you have dogs over 50 lbs, contact owner for possible exceptions. Both of our dogs are over 50 lbs, so we get it... :)
We are also less than 10 minutes away from the Sandhill Crane Winery which has beautiful views, live music, and great wine and food.
Minutes from Calderone Golf Club!
We DO NOT have electricity or running water. If running water is needed, please ask. We do have battery powered lighting and lanterns, but guests encouraged to bring their own. We provide clean sheets and bedding on the mattresses. Drinking water provided. Trash bags provided.

- "Wow is all I can say about our trip to the yurt! We had such a wonderful time and mase so many amazing memories with our kids! The yurt is exactly as described. It had a futon and 2 bunk beds, perfect for my husband 2 kids and I. The space was clean and all we needed for the long weekend. We love rustic camping ( no running water or electricity) so this was perfect for us. We cooked over the fire for all our meals. There is a cooking grate over the fire which was helpful. There was plenty of seating around the stone fire pit. If you want the sound of nature and isolation this is for you! At night when all the lanterns are off you are in total darkness which we though was cool! There is a string of battery powered lights around the inside of the yurt which we liked at night which is basically like the light of the moon. Tons of things to do in the area. Lots of canoe liveries about 35-55 minutes away. Easy to get to for a day trip! Lastly our hosts were beyond easy to get a hold of and were very helpful through the booking as well as the entire trip! Highly recommended this property! We hope to stay again!"

OakHill offers 20 acres for you, your family and pet to enjoy, including wide open spaces and two lakes for your boating, swimming and fishing pleasure ( catch and release). A 1/2 mile hike trail that’s completely private. If you bring a pet please keep them supervised we’d hate to scare the wildlife and our two orange tiger cats Mango and Skittles. They roam the property and are friendly. You will stay in our cozy hideaway camper that features 1 queen bed and 2 full size bunk beds.and all the amenities you’ll need. Just bring your clothes and food! It’s perfect for a small group of guests. With amenities like a fire pit, grill, two paddle-boats, catch and release fishing on the back pond only, WiFi, heating, and AC, your stay will be nothing short of enjoyable. Smoking is allowed but only outside.
There’s a wood shed just down from the camper with a cash box using the honor system, we provide a pile of kindling for free that’s next to your campsite.
Kickback, relax, and enjoy everything OakHills peaceful surroundings have to offer.
- "This was perfect for our trip. We live in Florida and have not been camping in years. The location was great only a 20 min drive to the airport and very close to restaurants and stores yet felt like we were in northern Michigan in the woods. Private and beautiful. The trailer was comfortable, updated and nicely decorated. The host was very nice and accommodating. I loved that they have dry firewood stocked and ready to use. There are two young cats on the property that are super friendly and love cuddles. "
