Bay Inn

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean and adequate. The pool and hot tub were large and clean. It was a great amenity on a rainy day. The breakfast was tasty and convenient."

AuSable Valley Inn

8/10 Good

"Clean, quiet, near everything but off the busy road. Would stay again. A few weird things though: the tiny fridges have no tiny freezer, so I couldn't refreeze my ice packs; vending machines were all removed, so they're selling drinks out of a fridge behind the check in desk only when it's open; nothing in the rooms: no phone, no brochures, no kleenex, no wifi instructions, had to ask for washcloths. Excellent stay if you're independent."

10/10 Excellent

"It was incredible! Amazing property and amenities. From the check in to check out process, everything went smoothly with great communication from the host. They made sure we had a great time and we sure did! Even with a large group we felt very accommodated and comfortable. The lake and patio were absolutely beautiful, and our pup had a great side yard for him to play and go potty in! Couldn’t recommend enough."

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were wonderful. The cabin was very clean, and well put together, and I am very picky about the cleanliness. We love the surrounding area, as we travel there frequently. We will definitely be returning to the area, and to this cabin."

Cozy cabin with backyard stream close to Au Sable River and the best ATV trails

8/10 Good

"My husband and I enjoyed a weekend getaway here to celebrate our anniversary. The owners were very quick with responses to any questions. The cabin is quite cozy, the hot tub was lovely to relax in and sitting by the babbling stream with a glass of wine was incredibly relaxing! I haven't felt so relaxed in quite some time!The below is just some information regarding the cabin, not intended to be negative. I have worked in a physical therapy office for 18 years, so things of this nature are more on the forefront of my mind. If you are considered to have moderate to severe mobility and/or a person of size, then I would not suggest this location. The step-up to enter the cabin is a little taller than typical. The bathroom space and shower are small, so it may be impossible for people much larger than my self (I'm 5'5" and about 250 lbs with a large butt) to navigate. Also the bed literally takes up the majority of the floor space of the bedroom, if two people stayed one will need to climb on and across the mattress. The bed is on the taller side as well. Just to reiterate, I do not say these in a negative way, it was noticeable and I just think of accessibility more often now. We had a very low key stay, we ventured 20 minutes south to Rose City and tried both wine tasting businesses, both were completely delightful and we recommend! It was so nice to get away and reconnect with my husband, 20 years strong here! Thank you again, we recommend this location to others"
