Summary: Amy’s home truly lives up to its name—The Upper Peninsula’s Hidden Gem! While the house itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and perfectly set up for our group, what really made the experience unforgettable was Amy’s kindness. From start to finish, she was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly responsive, making sure every detail was just right.We had guests of all ages from infants to adults and everyone felt comfortable. The breathtaking lakeview was the highlight of our mornings and evenings, and the peaceful setting made it easy to relax and enjoy our time together.Amy’s hospitality made this trip more than just a getaway—it felt like being welcomed into a home filled with care. We’re so glad we found this “hidden gem” and can’t wait to come back

Summary: The property was nice. A bit rustic in some ways. We loved that it was on the water, wonderful breezes and views, however the water was unusable for some of us with the slippery rocks and that was disappointing but not owners fault. Otherwise everything was good, nice touches were, water shoes, mosquito sprays, wood for fire, kayaks, life jackets, ample lawn chairs provided, paper products, games. Beautiful sunsets and views. The owner was very responsive and nice. We had a great time!

Summary: Excellent vacation rental. Well stocked for all your needs (cooking to entertainment). Short drive to sand beaches and boat launch. Water at rental was rocky, need to wear water shoes which are provided. Kayaks and paddle board were also a great addition to the rental property.Amy was an excellent host, checking on us making sure we are having a great vacation.If you are looking for a northern Michigan bay summer vacation, I recommend.

Summary: We had 10 of us at the cabin and it was perfect! We have been coming to the area for years and it was one of the best properties we have stayed in. The hosts were incredibly responsive and communicative. We loved the location and peacefulness. Lots of ammenities to use on the beach. There was plenty of room for all of us to gather for food and games.

Summary: Stayed here with my sister and our 4 kids. We all our own bedrooms and bathrooms. Stonington is a place to we like to visit every summer, if possible, for quiet, relaxation, and to get away from the daily to-do's. Even though it's a laid-back feeling, the house has all of our creature comforts. We will stay here again!
