Family-friendly holiday rentals in Upper Peninsula of Michigan

Worked perfectly for a wedding in the area and for our family of 6. Loved the outdoor amenities.

I stayed at Melissa's place with a group of 4 other girls for my sister's bachelorette party. Not only was the space perfect sized for our group, but the girls and I could not get over how amazing the property was. We obsessed over the view from the kitchen window, the decor and gingham curtains in the living room, and the loft bedroom. Everything was so well done and thought through and we spent a majority of our time during the weekend hanging out at the house, having dinner on the front porch, and admiring the baby pigs!! And when we did venture into Sutton's Bay or Traverse City, the ride was smooth and had beautiful scenery of up north Michigan. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked and the linens were definitely adequate for all of us to sleep comfortably. I will definitely be booking here again!

Over the top amazing place to stay. Beautiful, comfortable and adorable! Seth and Kelsey were outstanding hosts and my husband and I were so impressed, these two should give lessons on how to be the perfect hosts!!! The food was amazing and they also slipped in a little birthday surprise for me. The property was so well maintained and the hot tub and fire pit were a welcome surprise and we enjoyed meeting other guests fixing s’mores!! I forgot to sign the guest book so will be back soon!!

We had an amazing week at the cottage! The location worked well to visit many Northern Michigan and Upper Peninsula attractions and after sightseeing we looked forward to returning each day to fish, sit by the fire, hang out in the hot tub, eat dinner, or just relax at the cottage by the river. We will definitely keep the location on mind if we make it back up to that area again.

AMAZING! I loved the kitchen, my in-laws loved the views, my kids loved the sauna, and we just had a great stay! Plenty of room for everyone! Would absolutely stay here again!

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!

This was my first stay in Door County and with Patty. There were 4 of us (me, my wife, my 5 year old daughter, and my 1 year old son) along with our golden doodle traveling together. We used Patty's crystal clear directions and got there without a hitch. We were impressed with how clean everything was! The floors, counters, bathrooms, etc. Being a log cabin, there are tons of nooks and crannies and we didn't see any that were dusty. It was easy to relax in a place that was so clean. The decor was very cute! Lots of cabin-themed items, but it wasn't cluttered, which I appreciated with two young kids that like to touch and handle *everything.* The kitchen was very well stocked with nice pots/pans, good utensils, and both adult and kid-friendly plates and cups which made it easier to relax at mealtimes. The new hot tub was really nice - a much needed treat after the kids went to bed! Both Patty and the house were awesome! I look forward to staying here again!

This place was a great stay. If you love fishing, this is the place to go. My wife and I caught approximately 250 total fish over a 6 day stay. It was a great mix of bass, perch, crappie, and bluegill. The firepit was nice at night and the views of the stars at night was spectacular. The apartment was clean, and had all the things we needed. The host was great at communicating and easy to work with. We even added an extra day to our stay because we didn't want to come back home.

Barb's Airbnb was one of the most beautiful and we have rented around the world from Paris to Curacao. The setting was extraordinary with beautiful flowers, a lovely pond and a great size fire pit with a surrounding deck. In fact, there were several beautiful areas to sit or dine to enjoy the numerous birds, butterflies and hummingbirds. The interior of Barb's cabin was delightful; beautifully decorated , her photos capture the charm of her cabin well. The location is excellent to be able to see all the wonderful sites that the upper peninsula has to enjoy. As many other visitors to this beautiful home have stated, one of the most enjoyable things in the mornings was to sit either on the wrap around porch, the upper deck that overlooks the pond, the screen gazebo or the lower deck by the pond ; we enjoyed all areas. I can't imagine booking any other Airbnb when we return back to the beautiful upper peninsula.. Thank you Barb for your hospitality and your kindness .

Ross’s place is super special, we loved our stay and hope to return! It’s cleaner, brighter, friendlier, comfier and airier than the photos and just to echo everyone else the view is intoxicating and of course can’t be captured in photos. Host was kind, helpful and responsive. Immediate area is very sleepy which is what we were seeking. Amenities were aplenty. Thanks Ross and family!

Fantastic place to stop while driving across the country. Terry and Sandy were very kind and responsive hosts. Cabin is located across the road from a beautiful stone beach.

Beautiful lake front area with the wonderful Marty’s Place North supper club literally in the front yard! Fantastic and amazing views. Perfectly placed so you get the out in the middle of nowhere feel while still being close to downtown Minocqua and truly get the best of both worlds. Perfect for small groups (mainly 1, maybe 2 couples). Was perfect. Hosts are incredibly helpful and responsive. Thank you so much Mark & Wendy we had a lovely stay!

Fantastic home! We loved everything about this place. Lots of space for our family of six. House was clean, stocked with lots of amenities. Linens, towels, board games, books, kitchen supplies.. We loved the beautiful view, deck, fire pit, dock, paddle board and kayak. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!

What a beautiful cabin in a private, peaceful, and scenic setting. My husband and I had a wonderful time having coffee on the deck overlooking the forest. We also relaxed on the sofas and watched TV. We cooked two breakfasts and a dinner, and the kitchen had everything we needed. It’s apparent the hosts love and care for this special place, and it really shows. We did a couple great bike rides nearby and enjoyed seeing wildlife: deer, a painted turtle, and a porcupine! If we’re ever in the area again, we’d love another stay at this lovely cabin.

We had a wonderful stay! The location is perfect—just a short drive to Grand Marais, but far enough out to really feel like you're up north. It was peaceful and scenic, a great little getaway. We also really appreciated that it's pet-friendly. Just a heads-up for anyone with a large dog: the stairs are quite steep, so keep that in mind. Overall, a cozy and relaxing spot!

Ann was extremely communicative & sent me a text the evening before our arrival. The home was easy to find & more beautiful in person than the photos could capture! It was stocked with toiletries & kitchen staples. The property is on its own small beach & it’s about a 1 mile walk on the ATV trail across the hwy to Fika coffee. We brought our bikes and enjoyed riding on the back country roads & trails. This property is dog friendly, as well, which really makes it a gem in our opinion!

a pleasure . . as always. Clean place, efficient check in, great location.

Place was great and super clean. Loved the space and fit the three families perfectly. Only bummer was no access to the pool but that was out of the owners hand and she was going to follow up immediately on the change in the process.

This house was exactly what we were looking for when booking for my bachelorette trip. It was private, relaxing, and was surrounded by beautiful views. Unfortunately it was not warm enough for the pool during our stay, but the hot tube and sauna were amazing. The cliff at the water’s edge was even better than the pictures. Cheryl was always on top of responding whenever anything came up, or for any questions we had before and during the stay. She was an amazing host, and I would definitely stay here again when going to the UP.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bob and Lisa’s place!

We stayed at Cathy's place while having plans at Nub's Nob. The location was absolutely perfect. Cathy was incredibly friendly and helpful. The house was beautiful and comfortable and it truly felt like a home away from home. We would, without a doubt, stay here again when in the area.

Wonderful host and fantastic condo. Comfortable, clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Very nice linens and towels. Location was perfect for us to access Nubs Nob and restaurants in Harbor Springs. Janine was exceptionally welcoming and responsive.

Perfect little condo right on the lake. Nice location for exploring the surrounding areas.

Rustic charm Beautiful scenery…. Can’t say enough about that.. Host were so quick to respond to any questions we had! (Very important) Great fishing spots! Neighbor lake has much bigger fish!! Beds super clean and fresh smelling and comfortable! TVs have lots of channels Pool table was added fun! Everything you needed for a family of 10 to enjoy some tranquility and family fun! Just beautiful! All around:) Go to Landing Zone for bowling! Veteran owned! And we went to Mancino’s (it looked vacant but new owners) great pizza and yummy grinders (homemade bread) that offers gluten free pizza and also has garlic knots!! Only 2 regrets, we didn’t book 2 wks & we really did not prepare for Michigan weather. Haha Bring sweatshirts and pants cuz mornings cold and afternoons warm and evenings cold. Can’t wait to go back!
