Beach Front Property- Dog friendly

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviews6 months ago

Wow! if I could turn my car around and go right back to Miriah's place, I would do it in a heartbeat! We took our 3 kids for a quick Fall Break trip to Elk Rapids and we all fell in love with Miriah's place and this amazing little town. The house is a perfect layout for families, with lots of common spaces to hang out together AND enough sitting nooks for people to find quiet places to read and relax too. The kitchen has got to be the most well stocked Airbnb kitchen I've ever been to. Next time, I'll plan to cook more because now I know Miriah's house literally has EVERYTHING you might need to cook and serve a big group. The house was spotlessly clean, the furniture was super comfy and we slept super well. We loved walking to the beach, playing at the playground, watching people catch fish by the dam, walking to the shops in town, and enjoying the incredible views. This place exceeded our expectations in every way. Thanks for a great stay!

Location. Location. Location. Wow! What a gem! Loved this place for our honeymoon getaway. Close to everything - the dunes, great beaches, restaurants, kayak trips — you name it! Beautiful sunsets and loved the shallow lake (you could walk out forever and ever). Great place. We will 100% be back to stay here! 😃😃😃😃

Open- Up North Cabin Across Big Glen Lake

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 324 reviews2 months ago

This lovely cottage was perfect for our family of five (3 kids 12, 8 & 6). It had everything we needed and was right across the road from a cute park on Glen Lake. It was close to a lot of different parks including Sleeping Bear Dunes. Heidi kept in good communication to make sure we had everything we needed, including making sure we could get out of the driveway after a heavy snow. Hope to stay again next year!

I decided at last minute to have a retreat over my birthday weekend and found Carrie's RV available in the area I wanted go. Everything went well and I enjoyed the RV and campground enough to extend my stay. Additionally, upon checkout at their Rhinestone Event center I caught the tail end of a breakfast buffet and enjoyed the best Belgian waffle I have ever had. I will be back.

Vintage House on Main Street

5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviews7 months ago

For starters the house is super weird, but has a unique charm to it. It is very vintage, lots of original woodwork, comfy beds, 2 living rooms and 2 kitchens. We visited for my 40th and the house is walking distance to the beach and all the restaurants in town. We enjoyed sitting in the front yard and watching the world go by. Would recommend for people who don’t need everything to be modern and updated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
