Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Au Sable River

This was our second stay with Sure! She has a wonderful home, we loved it!!

Girls weekend at Van Etten Lake. House is adorable with plenty of amenities. The back deck is as where we spent most of our time. Large and comfy. We had a bonfire one night (thanks for leaving us some wood - it’s hard to gather on motorcycles ;)). Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of linens and towels. We had a beach day in Oscoda and we want to come back! Found some nice spots for dinners. The weekend was over way too soon! Thanks for a great spot!

The house was immaculate and spacious for the 8 of us. Very comfy beds. We especially enjoyed the breakfast goodies gift they had waiting for us- pancake mix plus maple syrup and honey made on the property!

House was exactly as listed. In addition to being spotless clean, all the house amenities were top notch with the best being the kitchen. Made majority of meals in high end kitchen - so refreshing to have quality pots and pans that made the experience great. Master bath was large with multiple shower heads in the shower. We enjoyed the rear patio at night with a relaxing fire in the gas fire pit. Parking was more than adequate with plenty of room and large garage that allowed storage of multiple bikes and e-scooter. Location was great with short walk to downtown or waterfront. Be sure to check out the Bricktown Cookie Company, Bricktown Burger and Loco Boys Brewing all less than 2 blocks away. Access to Tart & Boardman Trails was very easy allowing near daily rides. Be sure to check out walking trails at Hickory Hills and Vasa - very easy and relaxing. Communication with Rande was outstanding with near instant response. Obvious that Rande really wants guests to enjoy the house

Beautiful, serene, and felt like home. My two dogs LOVED the pond out back and we all enjoyed roaming the expansive private yard. Saw a ton of deer, napped in the hammock, had a peaceful bonfire every night in the large bonfire pit. I loved the hot tub under the stars and the big jetted bathtub. Comfortable beds and the place had everything we needed to cook at home. An absolute gem and we plan to return!

Very nice little place to stay and it was exactly what we needed. We were in the area for snowmobile races and it worked out perfectly for us. The listing photos matched the description, and for our little family of 3 it was perfect. It might be a little crowded if you were trying to put 6 people at the house, but, if you don't mind togetherness, it would be fine :) I always prefer to rent a house over a hotel room. Blake and Thomas were extremely helpful and quick to respond to messages. Highly recommend if you are in the area!

I reserved this booking for a calm bachelor party of 7 people and the beds were incredibly comfortable and room to spare. The rustic back porch and the feeling of the space was great and perfect for a group stay. I’d recommend it for people looking for a group outing and a feel for rustic comfort. Fast internet, room for inside and outside relaxation, if I find myself in a similar need I would go back again.

I was a bit worried about getting a fire started in the fire pit with the wind blowing a whole lot. However, it was so easy! The wood, leaves, and sticks to start a fire was already in the fire pit!. I lit the fire and Wala! Instant bonfire for my kids and I for s'mores! I love the fact there's wood already on the property. That's very helpful 😁

Lovely place RIGHT on the lake. My husband and I went for a date weekend of ice fishing and relaxation. Yes-it was a perfect spot to walk out and fish despite the quantities of snow! Restaurants all right there in walking distance- hours are different than what is on menus or online so be aware. Very clean and cozy place that was spacious and warm. We will definitely keep it on our list for the future!

We enjoyed our stay while in town to ski. Easy walking distance to restaurants for a person that enjoys walking, even in the cold. Thanks for letting us stay in your cute airbnb!! Don and Jill

Lovely apartment. Paula was very responsive to our questions. Close to everything. It was as pictured. Thank you.

Heather’s place is AMAZING! It’s beautifully decorated. The furniture is super comfortable. The kitchen has everything you could want to prepare a meal. VERY reasonably priced considering everything you get and the location. I highly recommend Heather’s place if you’re staying in the area.

We were in town for a family wedding and this was a perfect location. Could walk to town and other stores were close by. Place was better than expected.

We had a great stay for a winter ski trip. 20 min to Boyne highlands. Airbnb itself is very well stocked and well maintained. Host was responsive. One thing to keep in mind is there is a steep staircase to get to the unit that I imagine may not be suitable for all.

Easy to find. Place was clean and Madison responded quickly to questions. Will definitely stay here again when we’re in the area.

Gorgeous view as soon as we pulled in. The grounds were beautiful and the building's were very pretty. Our suite was roomy, decorated simply and very clean. We had everything we needed for our stay and Mary even left us a small loaf of delicious banana bread! When we arrived it was much colder than anticpated and I was worried since the suite didnt have A/C or heating but Mary had several space heaters in the rooms and already had them on so it was a cozy temp when we walked in. Just really, really happy with the space. We would definitely rent again. Thank you!

Great location and warm welcoming home stocked with essentials plus nice touches like firewood ready hot chocolate and coffee. The facilities and pool are great. Have stayed here several times and will be coming back again.

Beautiful condo! Walkable distance to a lot of restaurants, shops, and the water. Host was very accommodating, responsive, and helpful.

Cozy fire by the fireplace Friday evening. Extremely convenient location to the Highlands and Nubs. Hot tub in community center after day of skiing. Fun times, good meals, and drinks in downtown Petoskey. Coffee in the morning with deer meandering through woods behind the condo. Condo is a nice set up for a larger group with many nice renovations. Host Shannon was very organized and responsive.

Great place, great location. Just confirm all amenities are still available if needed for your trip. We brought food to grill based on listing. We’re unable to grill and did not have proper necessities. Pricey mistake.

Nice apartment , and location. Clear instructions, and had everything we need it. ☺️

We really enjoyed this place. The condo was extremely well maintained and clean. The unit matched the description completely. As mentioned in the listing, the condo is on a busy road and there is road noise. But honestly it wasn't a problem for us. The owner does include a sound machine which helps eliminate any road noise at night. We would definitely stay here again sometime.

We had a wonderful weekend away! Cheryl’s recommendations were so helpful! We enjoyed the area and had a peaceful stay.

What a little gem! We felt very safe and at home at this condo. It was nice and centrally located to all the places we wanted to go. More amenities than we could want or need and everything was spotless and well kept! We loved this place so much that we want to look at our own to purchase in the area. Will definitely stay again! Also… cannot beat the responsiveness of the owners. Top notch!
