Family-friendly vacation rentals in Onekama Township

Fantastic and peaceful place - highly recommend!

This is—by FAR—our favorite Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in Up North. Our family loves it so much, we call it “our farm”! We’ve stayed here in the summer, but this is the first winter we’ve been since they put in a hot tub, and even though we thought it couldn’t get better, now we NEVER want to leave!!!! We planned this weekend with our best friends at the cottage next door so we could all do the winter things together—skiing at the Homestead, putting together a puzzle in front of the wood stove and wine tasting across the street at French Valley (literally, we just walked!!!) We are already thinking about our next stay—can’t wait to get back to the cottage as soon as we can.

Scott is very friendly and helpful. Place is clean with a great location close to crystal mountain. Very nice

Over the top amazing place to stay. Beautiful, comfortable and adorable! Seth and Kelsey were outstanding hosts and my husband and I were so impressed, these two should give lessons on how to be the perfect hosts!!! The food was amazing and they also slipped in a little birthday surprise for me. The property was so well maintained and the hot tub and fire pit were a welcome surprise and we enjoyed meeting other guests fixing s’mores!! I forgot to sign the guest book so will be back soon!!

Absolutely loved the location of this rental! It was like a 3 minute walk over to the yellow chair. So, so easy! The condo is also fully stocked with anything you might need for cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is decorated super cute, was clean and very accommodating. We would stay here again for another ski trip.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cabin. The house was clean and check in/out was seamless. Would recommend!

Wonderful place to stay, this place had everything and worked great for our bachelorette party group of 14! Everything was clean and neat, easy to find a use, and Barb was very helpful with any question we had! Traverse city was an easy 20 minute drive. The farm animals were fun to have around as well! We loved it and highly recommended this place!

Spent the weekend here for my wife's birthday with some friends. Great location for winery tours/local food, and everything you would need inside and out. Roger is a very responsive host and willing to do whatever it takes to make your stay as welcoming as possible. Plenty of room inside the house for sleeping for 3 adult couples, could've even fit a 4th no problem in the loft. Home was spacious and the screened in porch is a great hangout spot overlooking the lake.

This was our second stay at Russ’ and Jade’s. If you’re looking for a peaceful and quiet place in nature..this is it! The cabin is very inviting and clean, and the view of the river is beautiful. We appreciated the immediate response from the hosts when needed. It’s a great place.

We enjoyed our stay at the Treehouse. Beautiful home as pictured. Clean and well stocked with all the basics we needed. Fireplace was great for cold winter nights. Bed was comfortable. It was a bonus to be able to bring our dog with us. Drive to Bellaire was a little tricky due to weather conditions. AWD vehicle needed on Maple Lane during heavy snowfall. Overall great time enjoying all the snow up North and exploring the area. Bellaire is a nice town but many of the restaurants around the area were closed for the winter.

Great host! We enjoyed our stay. Awesome location. We’ve stayed in TC many time and this is our favorite. We hope to stay with Fernando again in the future. Thanks for making us feel at home!

Maria’s place is an absolute gem! We stayed three nights over NYE and it was exactly what we needed! It is a gorgeous cabin with thoughtful touches … very peaceful yet close enough to anything you would need. Although, it’s very well appointed so quite easy to just stay in and get cozy by the fire. We drove to Sleeping Bear Dunes area which was not too far and found the drive to be very beautiful! The best part was the snow we woke up to New Year’s Day … just magical and our dogs loved it. 10/10 recommend!

We loved our stay here! Ken and Rhonda were the perfect hosts, they were very flexible with check in and check out times and available to us during our stay. The stay is in a renovated garage next to their house, but we felt like we had lots of privacy and the setting with the pond and lots of land is wonderful. Everything seemed new, clean, and comfy, with lots of games that our kid loved. We loved the location, it felt remote but was also very convenient to everything we like to do in the area!

This was a great place to stay! We loved the location and the fenced in yard made bringing our dogs with us even better. My husband and I had a great time spending New Years playing pool in the basement. The location was so convenient to town but so quiet and private- we loved watching all of the deer outside. Just a small hiccup with check-in, as the key was not where the host had indicated, but it ended up working out after a while.

The tiny house was just wonderful. Lisa has put into lots of considerations in building this small but well equipped space. We brought our dog and cat, who were warmly welcomed by Lisa. The house was clean, organized, and cute. All of us had a great time spending a couple of nights there. Would definitely come back.

Tom was a great host. Communicative and responsive! The place was clean and was exactly as described. We had everything we needed. The view was lovely even with all of the snow! We had brought our dogs and Tom was great about this. Would stay again!

We had a wonderful weekend and totally enjoyed the Condo. It was clean, organized and we felt right at home. We most definitely would stay there again. It was perfect!! Thank you so much for allowing us to rent from you. It was nice to have a home, instead of just hotel rooms. Excellent experience.

We loved the idea of converting an old motel into a more comfortable and spacious place right across from the beach. The bed was comfortable, "living" room space with table, microwave and fridge were just what we needed, and folks we met were very friendly. We'd stay here again!

Our family enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable with all the amenities, and decorated beautifully for the holidays. Our host Marc was very welcoming. We would happily stay here again if our group size and timing work out!

This is our third time staying and we plan to return next year! We are a group of 8 adults and Tressia's place is spacious enough to accommodate us comfortably. It is always clean and communication with the host is great. Location is the best on the mountain.

We had three generations staying and the size of the place and ability to spread out made it very comfortable for all to have their own spaces, especially the kids. The kitchen/dining allows for prepping/cooking/eating with space to spare. The view on the course is lovely and the deck and fire pit are a great way to take it in. We took advantage of the indoor & outdoor pool as well as the private beach on Lake Bellaire. Golfed the Summit, hit at the range and played kickball golf! I recommend Torch Lake Pontoon for a day trip on that beautiful lake. So much available in the resort and surrounding area to do - a great place for a family vacation.

Very clean and up to date. Decorated to feel like your at home. Amazing spa shower and king size bed was very comfortable. My husband and I have stayed at several Airbnb’s and others could take a lesson from Kara on the correct way to run a bnb. We’ll definitely be renting this spot in the future.

Second time staying at Roberts place. It was perfect the first time and perfect the second time. Well laid out condo, with many thoughtful amenities. Parking is great too.....right next to the door. We will be back for sure!

We loved our time in the home in Onekama. The space was perfect for our group. The pool was absolutely beautiful. It was a perfect location to get to Lake Michigan and golf.
