Family-friendly vacation rentals in Au Sable River

Hello Lisa and Gregg, We would like to thank you for a very nice experience of staying in your Charlevoix condo. It was comfortably furnished, spacious, and very neat and clean. It was also close to the destination wedding venue we were in town for. We would definitely recommend staying here! Thanks again :)

I booked this beautiful home after my first reservation and host cancelled on me due to the storms. Well, I can say… we are so happy with our stay. It was exactly as described and even better than expected. April really is a one of a kind host, so good that I had to take notes for my own Air bnb adventure. She thought of everything! I’ve never had a better stocked kitchen. We always cook and make a big meal and we sure did not want for anything. We were even greeted with a local baked good and extra sheets and blankets for the dogs. These hosts were the best I’ve had in Michigan, if not the whole country. I’m thankful for people who truly consider someone’s stay and thinks of it all. Thank you again to the hosts. The Cabin was spotless and one of my favorite features was the deer lights.

The home was beyond expectations and included everything you could need and more. It was secluded and the natural beauty was breathtaking! The host was immediately responsive when we had a question and exceedingly accommodating. The hot tub was perfect on a cold misty morning overlooking the serene river view just a few steps from the deck. Highly recommended and hoping to return next year.

My husband and I love the Leelanau peninsula and try to go up once in the spring before the craziness and once in the fall each year. Tiffany’s place did not disappoint. The property its self was magical, private, and everything as described. The location was 5 stars for what we enjoy - Leland, Suttons Bay, Northport, Glen Arbor and all in between! Would HIGHLY recommend staying here!

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!

This was the perfect place for our weekend getaway. The house is in a quiet area with easy parking and views and an easy walk to the bay. Check-in was simple, with Kate providing great instructions for the keypad to let ourselves in. The house was cozy with all amenities as described, and we felt right at home. All the Traverse City attractions were easy to get to, and Kate provided great recommendations. We had an awesome time and would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely great for a group to stay. Truly ski in/ski out for hilda’s hideaway to disciples 8. Host very responsive to questions 24/7. Clean place with all the basic amenities you need

Bailey was a great host. She was responsive and helpful when we had issues. The house was nice, clean, and spacious.

The name says it all, Cozy Home. A very quiet little place. Very clean and organized. We only stayed one night for a quick getaway, but would consider a longer stay in the future. The home is right on the lake, the wild life around the home was very relaxing. My wife and I sat by our little bonfire and watched the sunset, ducks, geese and the deer. We had no concerns, but did have a couple of questions. Jeffery (the host) was very quick to respond. We would highly recommend this “COZY HOME” to anyone looking for some R & R. Thank You again Jeffery for a wonderful stay.

Lauren’s chalet is spacious, beautiful, well decorated and really feels like home. My husband and I loved the primary suite, the bed was very comfortable. The kids loved the treehouse and all of the trees behind the house. I wish we had better weather but regardless of the cold, we really enjoyed the stay. The WiFi worked great even though it’s very remote!

Outstanding! Very clean. We clean up after ourselves so not getting slammed with a high house cleaning fee and other fees made this a great value for families. One of the best places we’ve ever rented and Becca was so nice to work with.

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!

The house was very nice. It was spacious and clean. It was close to restaurants and other stores. We had a nice, relaxing time.

We had a great time here. This two bedroom, two bathroom house was perfect for my family ( 2 adults, 1 child and a large dog. The house is recently remodeled, located in the woods and on a lake. The yard is beautiful the views are perfect. There was everything you needed inside included a hair dryer which I forgot and family games like the fun childish butt crack puzzle that my 8 year old loved doing with us. The house is located only 20+ minutes from downtown Traverse City but just out of the hustle and bustle. The only thing that sucked was the sliding door that stuck, was so hard to open and close and almost impossible to lock but the owners had a paper on the fridge explaining that they were fixing that very soon. We visited in April so we didn't get in the water but they had kayaks, fishing poles, bikes, life jackets and so much more to enjoy that lake. I loved this vacation.

Loved staying at this cozy little cottage in TC! Kristina was very accommodating and helpful with every step of planning our stay. The cottage is just outside of town for maximum peace and quiet but close enough for easy travel to all of our favorite spots in TC. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a great pet friendly option at a great value. Thanks Kristina!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was very nice, clean, and exactly what we were looking for — peaceful, quiet, and secluded. The view over the river was beautiful, and although it wasn’t easy to access the river for fishing, our boys loved the adventure of it. There are also some great stores and a cozy coffee shop about 15 minutes away, which made it easy to enjoy a few outings. Overall, it was a perfect getaway, and we would definitely love to come back!

We thoroughly enjoyed out stay in this gorgeously updated condo with a lake view. Patty and Al are friendly and responsive and gave us terrific recommendations for dining, sight-seeing, and making the most of our stay. The condo itself is lakeside and the many windows offer lovely views - both sunrise and sunset. Downtown restaurants and gift shops in Boyne City are just a short walk away along the waterfront, passing parks and boat launches along the way. We visited summertime but it's perfectly situated for skiers as well.

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.

Carrie's Place met all the needs of our family. They went to snowboard and were able to do lots of that despite the recent ice storm. They liked the spacious rooms, winding staircase to the loft, fireplace and being able to have their own bedroom. The 3 boys also enjoyed the waterpark at Boyne Mountain Resort. The grandparents hope to rent the same place in the summer for some northern Michigan golf and hiking.

This may be one of my new favorite Air BNB spots! It is very comfortable and close to a lot of spots in Traverse City. The beach view was also very nice to look at. Kara is a great host and provided us with clear check in and check out instructions. Will definitely be visiting again!

Sam and Lynn were very responsive and welcoming hosts. They provided us with snacks and some complimentary items in the fridge! The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. It was a very homey stay, I would definitely come back!

Walk out basement to the few steps to get to the beach area. Well stocked kitchen. Recommend bringing your own water if desired ( well water I believe) . Beautiful sunsets. Game room was fun .. bring quarters to play though . Highly recommend

Sunset Glory has been our "go-to" ski weekend rental for years! We Love the apartment and being right in town and so close to the Highlands!

We loved staying here for a little weekend getaway! Dorene and John were so helpful and kind. The place was awesome so close to everything! Everything was so cozy and well put together, the hot tub with view is awesome!! We for sure will be back
