Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Kalkaska County

This was perfect for our little getaway from home! The water was so relaxing as well as kept the kids busy. They generously have paddle boards and kayaks which were a huge hit. The board games surprisingly kept our teens busy for hours at night so we loved having those. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

The house was beautiful and perfect for our group. Convenient location for a day in traverse city but was a quiet and peaceful retreat to come back to. Host was very responsive and helpful! We would definitely consider coming back if we visit this area again.

The house was very well furnished, yard was perfect for a nightly bonfire with friends and family. Close enough to town where you could easily get groceries, fuel, or simple go out to eat with no worry about it being a long drive. The house was located perfectly around multiple trailheads for ORV riding (within 20 mins). The only thing that I can say that was a downside to the rental was the amount of kitchenware. For a cabin that sleeps 10, there were limited plates, bowls, mixing bowls, and utensils.

Great place for the family. Plenty of things to do at the house. Also not too far from Traverse City or Boyne Mountain. Would definitely stay here again!!

We had a wonderful stay the weekend of Feb 15th-17th. The house has a beautiful cabin feel and was spacious enough for 5 adults and 1 teenager. All the amenities you need. Great location for skiing at Shanty Creek (20min drive) and Boyne Mountain (30min drive). Definitely a lot of snow in Feb. and need 4x4 for driveway and driving in the area. Highly recommend staying here. Sue, property manager, is great, proactive in her communication and always responsive. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Perfect place for three generations of our family to stay during a summer family reunion! Nicely renovated with lovely decor. So comfortable with lots of space. We enjoyed the deck off of the dining and living room, as well as the fire pit. Nice to be able to put our vehicles in the garage when it was raining too!

Our group of six adults really enjoyed our stay at the Bear Lake Barnhouse. We rented side by sides from Rippin Razor rentals in St Helen & they delivered them and picked them up which is perfect because the trails are close by. We loved all the choices of fun things to do including the boat we decided to rent for our stay. Downtown Grayling is close by and the food at Ray's BBQ & Paddle Board was really good if your not feeling like cooking but if you do want to cook the kitchen is well equipped. There was even some oil, spices, foil & storage bags in the kitchen which was nice. We mostly ate out but we did cook hotdogs on the grill one night & enjoyed a bonfire afterwards during our 4 night stay. Nick was an excellent host very responsive & helpful. If in the area again with a group we would stay here again.

Kristin was a great host and very responsive. The cabin was beautiful and very clean. Lots of room for our group of 6. We had a great time and hope to be back soon!

The location, the ambience of the place, the courtyard, the plethora of towels, the cleanliness, the easy parking - what a great place to stay, and how easy the process was. We’d highly recommend this.

This is the second time I’ve stayed here and I enjoyed this visit as much as the first. Extremely friendly hosts, beautiful surroundings, quiet and peaceful. Exactly what I was looking for. I will stay again for sure.

Wonderful place to stay off-season. Exactly what we were looking for. Very convenient and effortless check-in check-out.

I absolutely loved my stay at this charming studio! It had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing solo retreat. The setting is incredible - right on the water. The views were breathtaking, especially at sunrise, and the private sandy beach made it feel like a hidden oasis. The landscaping is gorgeous , and the beachfront seating, fire pit, and beach toys made it easy to unwind and enjoy. The patio was a perfect spot to relax with a view and peaceful atmosphere. The owners were so kind and welcoming. It felt tucked away, yet still close to everything. Truly the best of both worlds. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet, and relaxing stay with stunning setting.

My partner and I’s stay at Jeffrey and Holly’s suite was outstanding. The space felt incredibly homely, with cozy decor and thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. It was spotless and well-equipped with snacks, coffee, beach amenities, you name it - and we loved using their kayaks for exploring Silver Lake. They were friendly and provided smooth check-in instructions. The price for the area far beats any hotel we could have booked considering how comfortable, clean, and private the unit was. As other reviews said, mechanical noises and footsteps can be heard, but this did not bother us at all. We loved this unit so much, we will probably check the availability for our next trip to TC. This was hands down the best AirBNB we’ve ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

Lauren’s place was perfect for us to stay at when we had a wedding weekend. She was responsive and we had no problems! Recommend!

We had a wonderful, peaceful stay at Daphne & Will's gorgeous home. To say they went above and beyond would be an understatement – their space was filled with tasteful decorations, thoughtful touches, and high-quality finishes and furnishings. There was no way we could use every amenity available on a short 3-day stay, but that's all the more reason to come back and enjoy the space again sometime in the future. We particularly enjoyed the fireplace, view of the trees and lake, and comfy sofa – perfect for a relaxing trip. Will and Daphne struck the perfect balance of responsiveness, giving space, and friendliness. Airbnb perfection.

We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with this Airbnb! The hosts were exceptional—warm, responsive, and attentive to every detail, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They went above and beyond with thoughtful touches, clear communication, and local recommendations that elevated our trip. The property itself was stunning, nestled in breathtaking surroundings that felt like a postcard come to life. The serene views and peaceful atmosphere were exactly what we needed for a perfect getaway. The space was spotless, beautifully designed, and a showcase of Molly and Ken’s artistic talent and craftsmanship. I can’t recommend this Airbnb enough—five stars all the way for the incredible hosts and gorgeous setting!

We had a great time at the cabin, the hosts and cabin are top notch and would highly recommend this place to anyone considering.

this was our 3rd stay at Troy's cabin and once again our family was pleased. we do a winter vacation, skiing and snowmobiling. I highly recommend this place based on location and the property amenities it offers. the driveway is narrow and if you have a trailer bigger than a 3 place it will be tight when there is a lot of snow. 4x4 vehicle highly recommended in the winter.

La estancia que tuvimos en torch lake con one destination properties, fue muy agradable y espectacular! Nos sentimos como en casa, la atención hacia nuestros requerimientos siempre fueron escuchado! Lo que más nos gustó fue lo cerca que estaba la playa de torch lake y a pocos minutos de la ciudad de traverse city. Definitivamente si volveremos y lo que recomendamos un montón! Gracias chicos!

This was our 2nd time there. The house was just has described and it was a beautiful house and location. it was great to be back and we are hoping we can do it again next year. The house felt like home. Thank you again for letting us share your home and space.

Such an adorable cabin. Everything is there that you'd need and more. Cozy, warm and inviting. We were in a predicament, and Erin came to our rescue. We couldn't have been happier.

Wonderful spot right on the lake. Nice sandy beach with minnows that’ll kiss your toes. Plenty to do on the property and extremely well stocked with everyday amenities; i.e. kitchen utensils, full fridge, tons of towels, washer, dryer, and even a pack n play, high chair, kiddie plates and silverware. We had a blast and will for sure book again!

WELL WORTH IT! Be aware lots of steps to the water, but a ton of FUN! Paddle boat, kayaks, and a lily pad! House is very clean, well stocked and comfy beds and pillows! The veiw was gorgeous, may have to come back in the fall for colors. Easy check in, and Chelsea was very responsive!

We stayed the weekend for our anniversey and it was so peaceful! Loved all the views from inside the house. My husband loved being able to step outside and fish. Would definitely book again.
