Thank you so much for a wonderful, magical visit! We came to the UP for the first time from Chicagoland area and have loved it. The sauna and access to the beach made for wonderfully relaxing evenings. We had a great time using the grill and looking out at all of the beautiful birds from the porch. Thank you and until next time!!

This was a wonderful cabin in a peaceful location right off the lake. It was beautiful and cozy, even with tons of snow, and I can only imagine how nice of a spot it would be in the warmer seasons.

FVR RESPONSE: 

Thank you so much for your kind words, Ivy! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful lakeside setting of Snug UP and found the cabin cozy and beautiful—even with all the snow. It really is a special place year-round, and we agree that each season brings its own charm. We’d love to host you again whenever you're back in the area! -Jessica FVR

Wonderful Snug UP
The cottage was exactly as pictured. Cozy. Bed was comfortable. Very clean. Lake Michigan was beautiful. Kitchen was outfitted well. Everything in working order. Location was exactly what we wanted, a mix between remoteness and close to some conveniences.

Amazing views
The views are amazing, the cabin was very outdated and dark. Fresh water did a great job.

FVR RESPONSE:

Thank you for your review sharing your review, Todd! We're so glad you enjoyed the views offered at Snug UP. We also appreciate your honesty about the cabin's interior. While the space does have a more rustic and traditional feel, we understand that it's not everyone's preference, and your feedback is helpful as we continue to make improvements. We're happy to hear our team did a great job and appreciate the compliment. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again in the future! -Jessica FVR
