Utterly peaceful retreat
We've now stayed here twice, both times in November. It is the most peaceful, cozy retreat I can imagine: big windows look out on the snowy woods, but we're inside with a good book and the wood stove. It's a very short drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes for some hiking or cross-country skiing, and the kitchen is the best equipped I've seen at a vacation rental. What more could you want?

Amazing Stay in a Winter Wonderland
Very serene, peaceful retreat in the wooded areas near Sleeping Bear National Park/Glenn Arbor. Perfect for a quiet warrior get-away to reset over the Christmas holidays and an awesome snow storm just before Christmas to top off a rough year. Tricia and her family are amazing people and hosts, and everything is exactly as described. Pretty sure I took the record for a length of stay here! Slava Ukraini!!
