Nice house and area! True to what listing showed. Close beach access was great! Only thing I would have preferred is window coverings on kitchen window and back door. Property is close to the road and I prefer window coverage especially at night. Just a personal preference for me.

2 Night Stay
We stayed here and commuted to Mackinaw city for the day. This older home has nice cozy feeling. The beds are comfortable and my wife loved the soaking tub. The host was prompt at responding back to the question that I had about the grill onsite. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies. The only complaint was we arrived at 9:30 pm and the outside motion light wasn’t bright at all we had to due with cell phone flash lights.

We loved our stay!! It was the perfect place for our family of 5. Beds were so comfy, location was excellent, and only a short distance to a beautiful sandy beach. The house was clean and accommodating, and the soak tub was my favorite!!! We will absolutely be back!!

Wonderful home in a perfect location
We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is remodeled nicely, and was very comfortable. Mike was great, responding to a few questions that we had very quickly. Mike has though of just about everything as far as making the place feel like home and have everything we could possibly need during our stay. The location was perfect. Indian River is 25 minutes from Cheboygan, Mackinaw, and Petoskey. That means plenty of places to wander and explore and great restaurants as well. We also enjoyed wandering the quiet and friendly neighborhood. It's a short walk to the city beach and to the shops and restaurants on main street. Thanks, Mike for making our stay and our Northern Lower Michigan vacation so relaxing and fun.

Some of our family was able to get together at a perfect location. The house was clean and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed. Loved that the water was well within walking distance and lived the beach access. We went to the beach, Cross in the Woods and Vivios for dinner. Wish we had more time there. Would definitely come back.

Cozy and clean place to stay. We’re a family of four and there was plenty of room. Each of us commented of how comfortable the beds were and we all slept great. This place has everything you could ask for and is located in a quiet and friendly little neighborhood with lots to do in the surrounding areas. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and we would definitely consider booking again.

Michigan getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Mike’s place. It was very cute and as described. The house was spacious with everything we needed and more. The mattresses were so comfortable and the bathroom accommodations were lovely. It’s a short walk to a sandy beach and a couple blocks from a public access beach that was fun for all. Also walking distance to an ice cream shop and party store. Mike was very responsive and helpful. 10/10 recommend!

Incredible Indian River Home!
We booked this property to stay in while in Petoskey for a soccer tournament. This was our first time staying in Indian River. The house is in a nice quiet neighborhood and only minutes away from restaurants, grocery stores and shopping. The property was very clean and exactly as described. We were happy to see coffee and keurig pods - especially since we had to be up early for a game! My boys liked being a short walk to multiple fishing locations. There was also a nice selection of games. The host, Mike, was very responsive and great to work with. We can’t wait to come back again!!

My friends and I had a great time here and we definitely will be recommending to others. The owners are very sweet and the house is absolutely beautiful and so accomidating. We had a good time playing games that they had available (they had alot) and we loved curling up on the couch at the end of the day and watching movies together! The house was very clean and felt so safe and calm like I've lived there my whole life, the bath is also so amazing!! Loved our stay!!!
