Studio Apartment with patio. Casino, Flint Fields Equestrian , State Trails.

8/10 Good

"Very nice property and Tom is a great host. Only complaint would be that there's not much soundproofing between the unit downstairs and the host's living space upstairs."

Shadowland River Lodge on Boardman River - Pet Friendly - Acreage - Private

10/10 Excellent

"This was our third year staying here, and it’s just as amazing as ever. It’s private, peaceful, spotless, and the perfect place to relax. The location is excellent, and it has everything our family needs for a great vacation. We look forward to coming back every year and can’t wait to return!"

Waterfront log home on Elk Lake with dock and mooring, window A/C. Dog ok.

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Four adults had a lovely time at the Cabin at the Lake. We enjoyed sitting out on the furnished chairs (with pads!) gazing at the water and listening to the loons. We were surprised by how quiet the lake was during our visit - only a few people with motorized watercraft went by (we were there during the week of wildfire smoke, so that probably factored into it). Probably the most well-stocked kitchen I've encountered at a rental. It was a bit cramped for 4 adults and one big dog, but we made it work. The bath towels were plush, too!"

Welcome to Serenity Shores! 🌅 Soak in the private hot tub, unwind by the fire pit 🔥, and savor calming lake views. Pet-friendly 🐾 and perfect for recharging, exploring, and making memories.

10/10 Excellent

"Cabin was super clean and very well decorated. Landscaping was well maintained and looked beautiful by the lake. Host let us check in early since we were in the area which was very kind of them! Quiet area, a little noise from the main road but nothing crazy or too noticeable. Hot tub was great, perfect temperature and clean. Plenty of blankets and towels for guests. Would absolutely stay here again, short drive to traverse city which is what we came for. Host was also very quick with response time."
