REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
We are very thankful to Basia for the following review of The Loon on the Lake, which is one of the properties at Twin Birch Resort in Honor:
" 'Place of Our Dreams!' Our stay was peaceful, yet there was plenty to do around. Even when the weather turned on us one day, we found ways to enjoy our time. After a very busy summer, this trip was the perfect remedy for our stress—especially with our two kids in tow! The ample space and various activities allowed us to truly relax and rejuvenate. I was particularly impressed with how functional the space was—everything was easy to use and easy to clean. The hosts were fantastic; they not only knew the answers to all our questions but were also eager to help in any way they could. We can't wait for our next stay!"
This very cute, fun, and highly-rated park home is available at very reasonable rates from us directly at the following link:

REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
We are very thankful to Michelle for the following lovely review of Lorlee in Dowagiac:
"The LoraLee provided the perfect set up for 20 family members across three generations to come together for the week. The home is comfortably decorated with many upscale amenities including a dream kitchen to not only prepare food for the masses but also enough space to all enjoy a meal and socialize together. In summary, the home provided all the getaway comforts of home required. Kristin was a dream host to work with —. We hope to be back!. "

We are very thankful to Carrie for the following wonderful review of Sunset Bay in Frankfort:
"If I could rate this higher I would! Fantastic property- the space was amazing and just as described- if not better! Beautiful deck off of the kitchen with scenic views of Betsie Lake- wonderful to enjoy morning coffee and/or an evening glass of wine! Kayaks are provided, along with life jackets, which was awesome- we enjoyed several morning and evening kayaking trips- taking in so much nature - including multiple sightings of an adorable deer family!

REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
We are very thankful to Brad from Jackson, Michigan for the following very kind review of Gwen's Place in Frankfort:
"My wife and I stayed for a week with two of our kids, 15 and 6. Very comfortable accommodations, climate control was perfect, the back yard was very nice, and the kitchen was well stocked. The linens were very clean, the only thing lacking from the entire stay was a dish towel. I only mention that to highlight how little there was to criticize. It’s a short walk to everywhere you’d want to go, we hardly used the car for our entire trip. I would highly recommend."
This cute home is in a great location right in downtown Frankfort and it's available for rent directly at very reasonable rates at the following link:

REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
We are very thank to Edward for the following wonderful review of Weatherwood in Copemish:
"A wonderful property that includes all sorts of excellent amenities. The attention to detail is amazing inside the cabin. There is literally floor to ceiling decor on every level that makes you feel like you’re staying at a luxury hunting lodge (reminds me of the Disney owned California Grand Hotel at the Disneyland resort). We enjoyed using the sauna and it looks like pretty soon the hot tub will be ready to use also. My children absolutely loved the loft and playing in the creek behind the house. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer."
As indicated in the review, a BRAND NEW HOT TUB / SPA has just been added to the property. This spectacular vacation rental is available for direct reservations at the following link:

"Absolutely wonderful home! Would strongly recommend. The home was decorated beautifully and we had such a relaxing and luxurious stay. The entire home was spotless from top to bottom. Location was convenient to tons of activities that kept us busy for the week; at the same time the kids had no complaints staying in the house on the one rainy day. Plenty to keep them occupied. Highly recommend this home!"

REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
We are very thankful to Heather for the following rather touching review of Malabar Cove in Gladstone:
"Our visit was dual purpose. I was there looking for properties to build a house on as well as convincing my adult children to move up north with us. After staying in this beautiful and comfortable home, it gave them the feel of living in the area. Cozy bon fires at night, kayaking and fishing all day. Dinners and card games in the evening with the family. And a safe and beautiful community surrounding us. They couldnt say no. They fell in love with the UP and got a glimps into what future we can have together as well as putting down roots and starting their own families there. Its an experience we would not have had staying in a regular stuffy hotel room. Thank you for letting us enjoy your property. We will be staying with you again."
We are very glad that we were able to help provide a positive introduction to the Upper Peninsula! :-)
