WOW!!! This cabin is amazing and beautiful!
This cabin and property was just breathtaking. Beautiful scenery and the pictures don’t do it justice. Definitely will be back again! Very clean cabin and the driveway was freshly plowed after fresh snowfall. Close to Trail 7 for snowmobiling.

This is our second time at the river house and we will definitely be staying here every time we come to Grayling. Just look at all of the repeat visitors you find in the reviews and it is easy to see that this is a great house.

Great place
We were very impressed with the house. It was in a quiet neighborhood with access to the river from the back yard. There was a lot of wildlife to be seen as you are just outside of town. The hosts were very helpful as they provided tips to help us find some other places to fish.

Beautiful cabin on the Ausable.
Everything was wonderful and exceeded our expectations from the check in, location, abundance of wildlife, the fire pit and the view right from the kitchen table. Would recommend it any day! Thank you Scott and Linda for allowing us to stay at your place.

Last minute trip
The views are so beautiful and the flow of the house is great. Loved our snowmobile trip at this house. Big driveway for our trailer and a real fireplace in case you lose power. Will definitely be back for a summer trip to enjoy the river and atv trails. Thank you for the homemade jam, very kind and delicious.

TRUE BEAUTY
My wife and I had a wonderful time during our stay. The cabin was more than what we expected. Owners are very attentive to your needs (within reason-this isn't the Hilton and you can't have fresh towels delivered to your room...LOL). Neighbors were extremely friendly. Loved our view of the river and surrounds. My only complete is that we wished there was stronger internet. I ended up having to work Wedneday through Friday and found myself at the library those days. The location is great and is minutes from downtown Grayling. If you are looking for a beautiful getaway, this is the place.
