Comfy, cozy getaway

The Shed surpassed all my expectations! It was so cute and clean and just what I was hoping for and more. The location was very peaceful and quiet. The way it’s set back in the pines and all the little details made it by far one of the best places we’ve stayed. Kate was amazing and definitely hope to get back there soon!

Cozy cabin in a beautiful setting

Super clean cozy cabin surrounded by pine trees. The cabin is well-furmished with artistic touches, such as glass bottle windows that let in light. Firewood was provided for the fire ring outside. The pond is across the road and there is a large wooden swing to enjoy the view.

Great place!

“The Shed” is a cute little place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the daily grind. The place was so clean and well kept. Kate was so nice and friendly and made the stay feel so comfortable. You can see the care Kate and Ray took to make the shed a perfect getaway! Would definitely recommend this place for someone to visit!

Perfect getaway

The cabin was easy to find located down a dirt road tucked away into a quiet wooded area. It was absolutely perfect. This was by far the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in, plenty of room for our family of three, great outdoor area with fire pit. Highly recommend.

Great weekend stay at the Shed!

The Shed is a little gem in northern Michigan with close and easy access to Crystal Mountain, Arcadia Bluffs, and Sleeping Bear Dunes, among others. Off the beaten path but a quick drive to Bear Lake for groceries and other essentials. Perfectly cozy for my wife and me, but also would be good for a family with 1-2 kids or even two couples. Nicely decorated, very clean, a well-stocked kitchen and gas grill for cooking, and the owners are very responsive and super nice. Kate stopped by to great us shortly after we arrived to make sure we knew to reach out if we needed anything. Definitely will return for a future trip!

Pine Shed stay

Cure "shed" tucked in the pines. Very clean, wonderfully stocked and tastefully decorated. Cozy but has all the comforts of home. Kate was friendly and caring! Recommended for couples , not necessarily families due to size. Clise to Bear Lake for groceries, gas restaurants. Mot far from Manistee and Traverse City for tons of activities

Great Property

The “Shed” was an ideal place for the three of us to stay. It was in a perfect location for us to go to Crystal Mountain for skiing and out to a quick pizza dinner at Rosie’s Place. Great communication with the owners. It’s little touches like having fresh towels each day that made it a fun place to stay. Everything was very nice. The shower is a little tight but manageable.

Perfect getaway!

This is our second time staying at The Shed! We were in town for the Ironman 70.3 in Frankfort and it was the perfect location. Close to the race but away from the crowds. It’s very clean, comfortable and the perfect place to relax and enjoy a camp fire. Kate and Ray are wonderful hosts and really do think of everything to make your stay comfortable and care free. Highly recommend!
