The Great Lakes: soggiorni in chalet

What an absolute "gem" in the woods. We couldn't have asked for a better host. Jennifer was very receptive and periodically checked "to make sure" everything was okay. The house was in a secluded and quiet wooded neighborhood. There is something to be said about enjoying a hot cup of coffee sitting and the porch and taking in the sights and sounds of autumn and the smell of the fallen leaves. The dogs had a great time exploring the fenced in yard. I have a passion for cooking and found the kitchen supplied with an abundant supply of cooking utensils and pots and pans with a large kitchen table to sit down and enjoy those dishes. Quiet time in the evenings were spent watching movies in the family rooms. The house is centrally located and never more than an hour away from our daily adventures in various areas in the state. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and would gladly stay here again.

We had a wonderful March break week at Mark and Betty's. It's like living in an art gallery! The view was beautiful and a very peaceful and private location. My daughter loved the rooms and toys downstairs and we really appreciated the modern kitchen and fantastic fireplace.

Perfect family winter get away! Make sure you do the polar dip. Lots for the kids and adults to do. They loved the tubing. Great memories 💞

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Snow Escape! Beautiful home in a lovely location and the amenities (hot tub, sauna, etc) are top notch. I can’t recommend this place enough and I absolutely would love to return!

Lauren’s chalet is spacious, beautiful, well decorated and really feels like home. My husband and I loved the primary suite, the bed was very comfortable. The kids loved the treehouse and all of the trees behind the house. I wish we had better weather but regardless of the cold, we really enjoyed the stay. The WiFi worked great even though it’s very remote!

We had a great stay at Vivian's place! The chalet was very clean, exactly as described, and fit our group of 13 comfortably. We especially liked the big dining table that was great for meals and games together, and that the kitchen/living room area was on a separate floor from all the bedrooms as this made it easy to accommodate different schedules within the group. One thing to note is that the kitchen didn't have some cooking items like tin foil, cooking oil, and a baking sheet, so be sure to bring those if you'll need them. There was coffee however which we really appreciated! Vivian was very responsive to all messages and sent clear instructions for the space. Definitely recommend for a big group trip, would book again!

Great chalet! It was clean and well we're greeted with a dog basket with all the essentials (that was super helpful and amazing). The hot tub was lovely, warm, and CLEAN. All of the beds had different firmness and softness so it can accommodate many different preferences. The dishes were clean, which always makes me happy. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend this rental to others.

We booked this home for a family and friends cottage weekend and the place was exactly as described. It is a beautiful home very close to the slopes with lots of things to do (billiards, board games, hot tub, TV, BBQ). The host was very kind and responsive and was very flexible with out checkout time, which was very nice. Our group of 11 people all had a great weekend and we would definitely book this place again :)

Me and my coworker’s had to work in traverse city and this was a great place to stay very convenient that there’s a bathroom in each room for our privacy very peaceful and comfortable place

Joanna and Catalin made the trip extremely memorable for us. We traveled up to disconnect for a bit, and we felt right at home. Joanna and Catalin were always responsive and welcoming, and communicated really well. It was an easy check in and check out, without hassle. The surrounding areas are beautiful to look at, would definitely attend again. Thanks Joanna and Catalin!

My Family and I really enjoyed the property!! We thought it was peaceful, fun, awesome, relaxing and beautiful!!! There was something for each age group to enjoy. Lots of family time and alone time. I enjoyed the completely stocked home and comfortable sleep. The hot tub and view of the stars were unforgettable!! Loved all of the helpful notes throughout the home!! We can’t wait to come back!! Our new home away from home!!

Had a great weekend at Tony's cabin, which had everything you could ask for.

Our stay at the Juniper was perfect from beginning to end. We had an easy check in and check out, absolutely no issues. Upon entering you could smell how clean the place was! In fact we all said it was the cleanest rental we have stayed at! The decor was simple yet very tasteful and the bedding was superb! The sheets were so soft and the pillows were great. After our first night we all said what a good night sleep we had and we had all checked to see what kind of beds we were sleeping on! The kitchen was well stocked and we really wanted for nothing. It is such a pretty spot, we wish we could have stayed longer. In fact our only complaint was that we were leaving during the snow storm because it would be a perfect place to be snowed in! Matthew was great to communicate with as well. Hands down, 5 stars!

The Chalet was the perfect space four our multigenerational group to spend Easter weekend. The well-equipped kitchen had everything we needed to make meals for our group. The kids loved the loft, bunk beds, movie theater setup, activity room and playroom as well as the odd layout, which made for endless rounds of hide and seek! The grandparents appreciated separate spaces for a little more peace and quiet. The yard was an excellent spot for an Easter egg hunt! Overall, we would highly recommend and are looking forward to future stays!

Beautiful home that was cozy and welcoming. My family and I had a wonderful weekend relaxing and enjoyed both the hot tub and sauna. Plenty of sleeping options and beds were very comfortable.

Always heard back from our host when we had a question and everything matched the description and photos!

We've been to Murls cottage a few times. It is perfect for the findley lake area, and we even brought our snowshoes for the trails behind the cottage. Vintage, old school cottage as pictured, and we love having the fireplace.

A great place to relax and unwind!!

Cabin is lovely as are sandy and Rick. Feels like you’re at a friends nice place. They will help or leave you alone as much as wanted. Other 2 cabins they manage are on their own lots - everything feels private. Great bird watching too. Stayed w my mom and my infant. Very comfortable. As listing says it is probably not the place for little kids that can move (just w stairs and nearby river etc). Would like to come back again without a kid to relax again soon!

This home was exactly what we were hoping it would be: peaceful, quiet, secluded, and absolutely breathtaking views. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. The hosts were awesome to work with, responsive and helpful. Looking forward to hopefully returning!

What a haven! A really lovely, clean, and well-stocked home. All the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry amenities you’d need, tv in just about every room, easy-to-adjust heating and air conditioning, comfortable beds with fresh linens, and just spectacular views. Twin recliners built into the couch! Multiple decks! Off the road enough to feel secluded. We’d go back again in a heartbeat.

this was a beautiful place to stay for the weekend and only about 30 minutes from boyne! would definitely stay here again!

We loved our 3rd stay at Mia’s Black Dog Lodge. It is very clean and well-supplied. The lodge fits our needs for a small ladies retreat perfectly.

We had the most wonderful time at Dan and Voula’s lovely rental. Their space was pristine, so well stocked and had so many thoughtful touches. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. A very tastefully decorated and cozy space that was a hit with our whole group. The beds were very comfortable with lovely linens. Everything was just perfect. Thank you so much for hosting us.
