Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Benzie County

Our family and small dog came up for a long weekend to enjoy the slush run cup at Crystal Mountain. Bryce’s place was clean and comfortable from the start. We had an issue with something when we first arrived, but Bryce was responsive, helpful, and proactive. Traveling with kids and pets can be such a challenge, and it’s helpful to have a host who is sympathetic to that stress. Once we got that resolved, we settled into cooking in the nice kitchen and enjoying the back deck and hot tub (favorite part!). Even though the main road out front is busy, the backyard is peaceful and comfortable. Loved the first warm ups of spring there! Beds were super comfortable and we slept great( we have a sleep number at home so we’re picky!). A separate water cooler for drinking water was awesome! The tv in the living room was so fancy and the couches were clean, newer, and very comfortable for our whole family to watch movies. Check out was a breeze, no long list of chores! Thanks so much!

Everything was great! Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was beautiful.

My wife and I had a few days off for a fall break. Dennis' place was a perfect spot. The drive there and the surrounding woods were vibrant with color. The place was comfortable, well-suited for a short or long stay, and was stocked with plenty to do. The short path to the lake is great, and the dock provides a lovely view. We spent hours just sitting on the dock chairs reading. We were fortunate to have beautiful sunny days. We took the short drive into Traverse City to go to Trattoria Stella, one of our very favorite restaurants. We also took a short hike out back to connect to the Mt Minnie trail and thoroughly enjoyed that hike. Being minutes from Sleeping Bear Dunes, Empire, and Franfort was a perfect location. Our last evening, we went 15 minutes to Peterson Beach and watched the sun set and stayed to watch all the stars emerge in the darkness. It was amazing! We didn't, but we could have built a fire there on the beach.. We hope to return. Thanks Dennis!

Awesome place to stay! We had a group of 8 there to play at Arcadia Bluffs, which was only a 20 minute drive away. The house was in a nice quiet location. Plenty of parking for our cars. House was clean and looked exactly like the photos. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast. The large dining table was great for playing board games (which they had a large selection of). Host was very responsive as well. The only wish I had was if the TV in the living room was larger. Nonetheless, we would definitely return if we decide to challenge the course record. Thanks!

Everything about this airbnb was PERFECT! It is absolutely stunning and stocked with plenty of towels, blankets, and kitchen supplies. Since the location is super remote, I messaged the host and they quickly responded & supplied me with recommendations on where to get groceries and carry-out pizza. I didn’t want to leave!!

Part of me wants to give this home a negative review so that no one else discovers it! Perfect home. Perfect location. It was absolutely dreamy to be kayaking one moment and at the brewery listening to live music with an ice cream cone in hand 10 minutes later. The home had everything - well-stocked kitchen, toys for kiddos, comfy beds, kayaks, and beach toys. Could not have asked for more.

Great location to walk into town, well equipped kitchen and appreciated having coffee provided Plenty of linens for everyone as well.

We loved Troy's house during our stay. The house itself is very clean, and the backyard and lake area are beautiful! Definitely would recommend this to other travelers.

We very much enjoyed our getaway on Stevens Lake. The setting of this house is peaceful, quiet, and perfect for unwinding. We loved listening to the loon on the lake and our son had a great time down by the lake. The house itself was clean and comfortable and more than adequate for our needs. We arrived late at night on a foggy night, but Jane's directions were perfectly clear so we had no trouble locating this out of the way spot. Would highly recommend.

This was my second stay, and as pleasant as my first! Very comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. A wonderful place to stay, and would definitely recommend! I know that I will continue to look to stay at this property, whenever it is available, and matches my travel dates Tim

Maplewood Loft was just as expected - except a little bit nicer. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I slept great and was convenient for my trip to Interlochen. Nice to have a fully equipped kitchen. Good wifi too.

My husband and I visited Lake Ann, Traverse City and Leland over the weekend along with our daughter and son-in-law. The place was ideal for us. It was as described and so comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The sofa is a pullout, but it had an auto inflate air mattress rather than the old uncomfortable mattress. The bathroom was spacious and the shower was great. We would absolutely stay there again!

Heather's place was great for our trip to Frankfort. Well furnished, nice amenities, short walk to all the things on main st. and the beach as well. Enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the boats in Betsie Lake.

They are fantastic hosts and were lovely to be around. Absolutely on the short list for long weekends again in the future.
