Jerome since the beginning was proactive and very friendly. His response was always on time and fast. His place is perfect for an escape weekend and felt cozy! Definitely would recommend as there’s lots to do in the surroundings.
Home in Central Lake
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 176 reviewsHoward's House, Central Lake, Michigan, 49622
Loved our stay. Definitely recommend! The stairs are extremely steep to the upstairs bedroom, but there is a bedroom on the first floor for any elders or people who can’t do stairs well. The house is very cute, homey, and clean. And the host was very sweet, flexible and communicative.

This house was beautiful and perfect distance from downtown that made it easy to walk everywhere. The house was perfect for a larger family to have the space to enjoy our company, but also have the privacy and larger family needs. Great place to stay!

Cottage in East Jordan
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 133 reviewsCedar Creek Cottage lakefront near Boyne City
If relaxation is what you want AND want to be close to lots of things to do, this is your place! We absolutely loved our week at the cabin. Peaceful and quiet yet plenty to do. The kayaks and paddle boards that are provided are such a nice added touch. The place was clean and made great use of the space. We will definitely be back when in the area again! One thing to note - the shower is a bit tight so if you are a really big/tall person, it might be a little tight. But other than that - it’s an amazing place to stay!
Cottage in Suttons Bay
4.98 out of 5 average rating, 271 reviewsCozy Cottage in Leelanau County
Your gateway to Leelanau awaits. Great place to stay with all that we needed, in a beautiful setting, close to the wineries, nearby enough to the lake and hiking paths, and just a little drive to the dunes. Rustic yet modern feel to the space. And the hosts were excellent!
Cottage in Cheboygan
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 105 reviewsWooded Up North Retreat Steps from Lake Huron
We enjoyed staying at this Airbnb. It was tucked away in beautiful serene woods outside of downtown Cheboygan but a 5 minute walk to the beach at Lake Huron. It was very clean and provided all the amenities noted. The host Kara was very responsive to our questions. Should we visit Upper Peninsula MI again, we would definitely stay there again.
Cottage in Cheboygan
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 157 reviewsCozy Cottage by Mullett Lake-ski, snowmobile, fish
My son and I really enjoyed staying at Elana and Chris’s cottage. We loved staying in a small town, while having easy access to Cheboygan and Mackinac Island. I appreciated the notebook of recommendations found in the breakfast nook and local business flyers of things to do. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you Elana and Chris for sharing your charming place with us! My son will always remember this time as we celebrate his birthday this week.
Cottage in Gaylord
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 336 reviewsCozy Cottage on the Lake.
This is our 4th stay at Sherri’s cottage, we love it there! We have now stayed once in each season! This time we were looking for fall colors, they were just starting to turn. Just beautiful around the lake. I feel right at home in the cottage. It’s so comfortable, clean, and the view off the deck is beautiful in any season. Everything you need is there, definite attention to detail. We’ll go back in November, looking forward to it!
Cottage in Lewiston
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 109 reviewsThe Sticks and Stones Cottage
Probably one of the best Airbnb’s I have ever stayed in. it was top notch clean. All throw blankets were labeled that they had been cleaned for our use which made me feel very comfortable. I hope to make an annual trip.

This cozy pad right outside downtown Charlevoix was great for our family of four. The kitchen was well equipped, which we appreciated since we like to cook. The host was proactive in messaging location and check-in instructions, we really appreciated the communication. Great rental, great host!
Farm stay in Traverse City
5 out of 5 average rating, 471 reviewsCountry living close to Downtown. No cleaning fee
Marco and Joni were 2 of the friendliest, kindest hosts we've ever had at a vacation rental. The space on their property was private, immaculate, peaceful, and cozy. We felt safe and secure. They went above and beyond in their communications with us. We enjoyed walking the trail, petting their sweet goat George and watching the sunrise. Our trip was made in the Fall, so the trees were beautiful! Marco and Joni gave us lots of recommendations for restaurants and stores. Their attention to detail was appreciated! There are stairs that lead to the rental space, and although we didn't have any problem with it - guests should keep this in mind if they have difficulty with stairs. This Airbnb was one of our favorite, most memorable parts of our first trip to Traverse City. Thank you! Jim & Lesa

Tiny home in Harbor Springs
5 out of 5 average rating, 270 reviewsThe Rhubarbary Ruins
Maureen's cabin is warm, inviting and thoughtfully appointed with everything needed for a comfy and relaxing stay. The gorgeous wood of the cabin feels right at home among the incredible trees that the cabin backs right up to. Kitchen was well organized and easy to use, bed was comfy and the shower was nice and hot. We spent plenty of time both in the morning and after dark enjoying the gas fire pit on the back porch. Michigan itself was such a gorgeous state -- especially this time of year -- and if you are thinking of taking a trip here, you can't go wrong staying at the Rhubarbary Ruins. Thank you so much for being a great host!

Highly recommend this place if you are in need of a relaxing, peaceful getaway. The location is incredibly private and beautiful.

The setting of this property is spectacular for the fall colors. Started our mornings with a walk on the beach and ended every night with a fire watching the sunset.
