Reviews

Amazing!
Such a beautiful place to stay. The house was perfect, the location was great! The hosts had an Awesome Welcoming information packet that helped us with things around the house, plus places to go to and do! The Midway General Store was just we needed at the end of a long day! We rented ATVs due to the rainy weather canceling our other plans & encouraged us with the cool map they had in the entry! The turkeys were cool, that came into the yard two of the mornings with the babies. Thank you for lending us your home for the weekend!

FVR RESPONSE:

Thank you for your fantastic review Christina! We’re so glad you enjoyed the house, location, and welcome packet. It’s great to hear it helped make your stay even more enjoyable. We loved hosting you and we’d love to welcome you back anytime! -Van FVR

Great house!
Stayed here for a couple days while visiting Pictured Rocks with our family. The house and grounds are wonderful. Nicely decorated, well stocked kitchen, extra fluffy towels and comfortable beds with the added perk of a soft throw on each bed. The water was too shallow to fish, but the grandkids caught frogs and we sat on the bench on the dock and watched the baby ducks swim by. The home has plenty of room for adults and kids-the lower level game room provided extra space for card games and watching the Olympics. This house is a gem and we would very much rent it again.

FVR RESPONSE: 

It sounds like you had a wonderful time, Gail! We love knowing the home could bring you and your family so many beautiful memories together this olympic season! Hopefully we will have a chance to host you all again in the future!

Beautiful setting! Very peaceful location! Very spacious. Out of the mouth of a 17 month old, when we walked in, “WOW”.

FVR RESPONSE:

Thank you for your lovely review, Pamela! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful setting and spaciousness of the home, and that your little one had such a wonderful reaction upon arrival! It’s great to know you found the location perfect for future snowmobiling adventures (so hopefully we can have you back this winter)! We appreciate your additional feedback, which has been shared with our team so we can continue to improve. We hope to host you and your family again! -Jessica FVR

Family Getaway
House was excellent, quiet neighbors, beautiful water access and view, trails galore. Would stay again in a heart beat. A few more plastic camp fire chairs would have been nice.

UP stay
We loved this property! There was nothing we would’ve changed besides, maybe having a couple pieces of Tupperware available. We will stay longer next time! Thank you!
