Summary: My husband and I were golfing at Garland and wanted to float on the Ausable the day before. Great location to both places. We stay in VRBO’s all over the country and have to say this is one of the best properties we have rented. The extra amenities were so special and greatly appreciated. Bottle of wine to drink while watching the sunset. Snacks we could take on the river and golf. Best of all fresh bread and cinnamon rolls from the local bakery. So amazing

Summary: We had a great short trip to the firefly cottage. We were up for a family reunion so we didn’t get to spend too much time at the cottage, but we did manage to squeeze in some fishing! The house was very clean and very well stocked. Had everything we needed. Wendy and Mike have thought of everything to make their guests feel welcome. The welcome basket of goodies and wine was a very pleasant surprise! Communication with host was great as well!

Summary: We had a great time using the Firefly cottage on Mio pond as a base for spending a few days paddling the Au Sable river and catching up with friends. The property is nicely outfitted and we found everything we needed for our stay. Even the bird feeders were filled! We hope to return to spend some more time on the Au Sable.

Summary: The cottage was absolutely beautiful! We spent a lot of the time kayaking and fishing on the Mio Dam Pond. Close to town if needed, but also far enough way. Perfect home away from home! 10/10 recommend! We will be back!

Summary: Beautiful cabin with a beautiful view. Place was immaculately clean and charming.. Host were friendly and left us a gift...Fishing off the dock was excellent, caught bluegill, bass and one monster carp. Conveniently located near everything.

Summary: This truly was a cute little cottage and we absolutely loved all the special touches that were available to us. The Firefly cottage was adorable and so well put together. My mother in law lives local so it was a perfect place to allow our family to hang out together. The only thing I found disappointing was that we were on the lake and it really wasn’t the lake experience I thought we would have. We really couldn’t swim. I had hoped to be able to float and hang out more in the water. No where does it say that it is good swimming but I guess I just assumed since there were kayaks and a dock. We went out for the day to a beautiful beach and visited Traverse City which was about 1 1/2 hours away. In the end it all worked out. Other than that I would say this truly was a successful rental. We would stay again.

Summary: This cottage is amazingly cozy and adorable. It is gorgeous inside with a fireplace that makes it so homey. Wendy has everything you would ever need during your stay. We loved fishing from the dock and kayaking. The location is quiet, beautiful and picturesque! Wendy is very responsive if you need anything. We will definitely go back!
Jeffrey B. Jul 12, 2023 11:51:39 PM
Summary: We enjoyed our stay even with rain most of the full day we were there. Host was great and property was as described. Roads to property were rough but worth it to get to the Firefly Cottage. Fishing was not great for us but likely due to weather not location. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
