House is nice. Deb is nice

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was cute, clean and comfy. Our family loved sitting on the porch and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The cabin was very accommodating for our family and we appreciated not having any stairs to climb. The lot is a lovely wooded place and we were thrilled with the stars at night.

Can't say enough about how much we loved our stay. Deb was wonderful. The place was clean and cozy. We especially loved the fireplace! Perfect place to have a private getaway.

Deb wasn't there when we arrived but was very communicative beforehand about how to access the place. It was a perfect weekend and we really enjoyed the space! It was full of charm and felt nice and cozy. We especially enjoyed the fire pit in the backyard. Additionally, the cabin was extremely close to Alcona Canoe rentals, which was great! The only thing about this place (which Deb did warn about!) was that cell service is extremely limited. I didn't mind at all and kept my phone off all weekend. Unless you have Verizon, it's pretty difficult to get a signal. Since I was expecting a rustic weekend, I didn't mind so much, but keep it in mind if you need to get in touch with anyone. That being said, as soon as you go up the road into Glennie, service returns... My phone was back to normal as soon as we got to the gas station.

Our family had a wonderful time at Deb's cabin. It had all the comforts of home while being in the Huron National Forest. The decor and amenities are perfect. We will be back.

Deb's place in the woods is is exactly as described and brought back memories of my Grandparents cabin. We greatly appreciated the homey feel and comfortable beds. You feel the love Deb has put into Grandma's Place from the movie selections to the spices in the cupboard.

My girlfriend and I stayed at Deb's place to do some hiking and see the fall colors change. We had a fantastic time and really enjoyed the cabin! It was very quiet, but still not far from some good hiking areas and stores for supplies. We really enjoyed the fireplace too with the cold weather this time of year. I would recommend this place and would definitely stay again!

Great host. Great place to stay if you are looking to do some hiking.

If you want seclusion, then pick this place for sure! It's about three miles down a two track literally into the middle of nowhere. The cabin had everything you needed and it was great to be shut off from the rest of the world. We did some exploring on the trails with our dogs, had a bonfire, grilled out, and my husband checked out some fishing. It ended up raining while we were there and we were a little nervous maneuvering the two tracks back to town, so Laura and her boyfriend Dave came all the way out the day we left to lead us out! That was super host status! Unfortunately we didn't get to Meet Edward, but the communication with his was spectacular! They were by far the best hosts I have ever had using Air B&B and I would definitely recommend this place!

This little jem was hidden away in the woods and exactly what we were expecting. The dogs loved exploring the property and we enjoyed the river.

Ed was an amazing host and had a beautiful home that exceeded the descriptions, reviews and our expectations. The property was beautiful and gave us city slickers a true wild exoerience. The solar power was great and the home had everything we needed to make our weekend great. We brought two young children with us and Ed went out of his way to make sure that they had a great time. Thank You Ed!!!

Thank you! We had a relaxing getaway at the cabin: kayaking the river, fishing, reading, sketching, and enjoying an evening campfire. Our dog is a low-energy pup and was happy to find lots of clear space near the cabin to nap in the sun. Hearing no human noise but the sound of passing planes was so restful, even with the chipmunks chattering away. We must have just missed tadpole graduation season, because there were adorable tiny toads -- the size of a fingernail -- all over. This is a great place to truly get away from it all. Tips for future guests (and I highly recommend you become one!): The track leading to the cabin is clear but slow. We had no problems with getting stuck in my extremely low to the ground Saturn Vue Redline, but we had to navigate carefully and scraped in some places. Cooking options provided are a grill, two fire pits, and a small stove and oven in the kitchen. We cooked dinners outside but the stove was awfully nice for morning coffee. The river is a couple minute's walk from the cabin; we brought our kayaks and just left them down on the bank during our trip. You can easily paddle over an hour in either direction; I was on the water about 8 hours over two days and didn't see another human until I reached the lake. Despite being in the middle of woods and wetlands (yay!), the cabin and clearing around it are very nicely kept and we didn't have much problem with insects. We own a 10x10 screened room that we popped open on the back deck so that we could relax without swatting deer flies, which were pretty active this week. Ticks ignored our permethrin-treated clothing when we were in the woods -- we didn't even see any -- and the flies were impervious to DEET but repelled by picardin. Being prepared made us a lot more comfortable.

This is a wonderfully peaceful place. Within hours of arriving we were already talking about the next time we'd be able to visit. Ed has carved out the best spot for relaxing and recharging: in the middle of the woods, next to a river that leads to a big lake, and a recliner in front of a north-facing picture window :)

If you love the outdoors and want complete solitude to unwind and relax away from the hustle of modern day living, then Ed's place is the ticket. Tucked away deep in a cedar forest, you'll find a cozy cabin with hiking trails to explore and a river calling your name to canoe and float while you enjoy " Pure Michigan" and it's natural wonders. Ed is a great host and enjoys sharing the history and beauty of his slice of Northern Michigan splendor making sure his guests are well cared for during their stay.

This is a clean and beautiful cabin in the middle of a pristine wooded area. Do yourself a favor and rent the canoe and see the beautiful river. I cannot say enough good things about this place or the owner.

Simple, 1950's style cabin in a picturesque and remote location. The air smells sweet of pine, the river is crystal clear. The forest and wetlands surrounding the cabin are remarkably pristine. The cabin is wonderfully rustic and cozy. Edward is a gracious host who made us feel at home immediately. Thank you, Edward!

Loved the cabin and property! Very secluded and quiet! Perfect place to relax and undwind!

Lo que una increíble casa y parte de la propiedad. Todo era tal como se describe y el alojamiento era de primera clase. Fue perfecto para nuestra excursión de grupo y se lo recomendaría encarecidamente a cualquiera !!

The house was beautiful!!

Rebecca's place was perfect for our family reunion weekend, and large enough w/ enough beds to accommodate all 13 of us comfortably. House was lovely, kitchen was nicely stocked, beds were comfy, plenty of nice bathrooms. Grounds surrounding the house were gorgeous, we enjoyed sitting on the huge deck and looking at the scenery, and tossing a football and frisbee around. I know the guys in the family really enjoyed having the pool table and foosball table as well. Wi-fi was pretty slow, but if you're a family that wants to just spend time together disconnected from screens, that may not be as much of an issue for you! Rebecca was very responsive and helpful via text for any questions that we had. All in all, wonderful stay and we'd definitely stay here again.

This place was so nice, secluded and relaxing. We had our family gathering there this weekend and had a wonderful time. Plenty of space for everyone! The bonfire area is great for a larger group. We had beaches, canoeing, golfing and adventure park all very close. I would definitely recommend this place to others.

El Cedar Valley Lodge fue absolutamente perfecto! La abundancia de imágenes y la descripción detallada eran perfectamente preciso. Rebecca era muy sensible en los meses, semanas y días previos al alquiler, y durante nuestra estancia. Este lugar es absolutamente hermoso, con mucho espacio para las actividades en el sitio y cercanías. Vale la pena cada centavo para un grupo grande. La gran cocina, dos neveras y dos grandes parrillas en sitio hecho que sea fácil de cocinar para el 15 de nuestro grupo.

Gran lugar para alojarse. Era exactamente lo que estábamos buscando!

I booked the Lodge same day and they were super accommodating. It was quaint, definitely had the Up North feel and of course the view of the Au Sable was stunning.

grest views of the lake! Would love to come back for a longer period of time.

Upon arrival the first thing we noticed was the cleanliness. Not only was the place decorated beautifully, but it was newly renovated and very comfortable. It had everything we needed besides food. The grill was a great place to fry up steaks we bought at a local store. The boat hoist and dock were perfect. My favorite part overall was the deck out back. The view of the sunrise and Milky Way were incredible. As a professional photographer I found this location stacked with amazing viewpoints. The locals are friendly. Although you may be swayed to go to Alpena, I would first check out the beautiful private beaches of negwagon. Can't wait to come back!

We had an amazing weekend at the cottage. The view was absolutely breath taking. We did not want to leave!

Tim and Robin were very accommodating. Very responsive to texts and calls. Thanks for letting us use kayaks. Very nice cabin in a great area. Very close to Ausable River and trails.

The cabin was fantastic! Everything and more than what was stated in the description. Can't wait for my next trip to Mio!

It was a wonderful trip. I can't say enough. It was everything we hoped for and more.. The cabin was incredibly clean, well equipped, and cozy. It is a wonderful place for kids and parents. Thank you for everything.

Linda was a wonderful host! She has so mu,ch land and it's all so beautiful! She was really nice to sit and talk with and was always available to us. When our phones lost service, she offered hers so that we could contact out family. Check in was flexible and easy. Her home is filled with anything you could need. The game room is filled with so many things to play! It's amazing! We saw a ton of wildlife. Her property is also great for hunting. Overall, we had a great time. I didn't want to leave. Hopefully we'll use her place annually. Can't wait to go there again!

Linda is a fun person and very considerate. She makes you feel right at home. I really enjoyed my stay there.

Linda is a very nice woman who is very hospitable. She had a wonderful place with much to do for a secluded location. I was amazed how much effort she put in to making her property entertaining and accommodating, for example she has a beach volleyball area, a nice fire pit, outdoor and indoor swings, a large game room and minibar, and then there's the beautiful and picturesque surroundings/backyard.

Very relaxing beautiful place! Linda is a wonderful host! She is very accommodating and fun to be around! Will definitely be back!!!

A hidden gem in a country setting. Just a short drive to the city of Alpena. Loved the beautiful grounds. The full length back deck offers breathtaking views of a river running through the property. Loved seeing the deer grazing across the river. Beautiful pergola with swing seating and solar lighting to enjoy a campfire under the stars. A perfect place to spend a relaxing week or weekend. Any season. Very warm and cozy home with a huge basement playroom. The host was very welcoming and made sure her home was clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this getaway and will plan to return again.

5,000 stars!! This is an awesome, amazing, pearl of a place thats off the beaten path and perfect for the weary traveler. This is the kinda place that airbnb is all about, beautiful and hidden gems that are so much better and so much personal than a motel. The apartment is cozy, clean, well stocked, and the property is beautiful. A fantastic, beautiful, and quiet stay in the woods. I cannot recommend this place enough, book it right now!!!

Our stay at Aaron's was great from start to finish. The location was a bit more residential than we had anticipated but the proximity to trails in the area made it easy to get out into nature and explore the surrounding forests. Aaron was a great host, readily available for any questions we had along the way and the property was fun for our entire family - humans and pups included.

Good size cabin for two small families to share (2 couples + 4 kids). Nice area for relaxing in rear. Clean. Close to the Jose Lake Store & Resort for small beach access.

We had a great time. Nice and quiet get-away for the weekend. We had a blast playing the Dollar game and found $8 only to hide them again for the next guests. This place was great. :)

Aaron was very responsive via email and text message if needed. The house looked like picture, a cabin experience. We loved convenient access to walking in the woods- beautiful.

A good place if you want to be away from everyone. The stores are far away. It's a great place to relax and enjoy the free time. Also it's a perfect place to stay with a puppy.

From booking to leaving, this place was exceptional. Clean, cozy, well-stocked and easy access to hiking trails nearby. The backyard was perfect for our dog. Aaron was super responsive to any questions we had about the area. We even ran into car trouble and both Aaron and neighbors were fantastic helping us get back on the road. Highly recommend a visit!

Aaron was always available for any questions I had, and gave our family a lot of great suggestions on nearby outdoor activities. The cabin is quaint, quiet, and only a short drive to Lake Huron and many other local lakes and hikes. We were looking for a cabin we could bring our dog with as well, and Aaron's place was perfect! The fenced in yard made things incredibly easy and fun for our dog. Very comfortable cabin that gave us a home away from home!

Central location to Iargo Springs, Ausable river and Lumbermans monument about a 30 minute drive to Oscoda for Lake Huron or 50 minutes to Harrisville. Blankets on the beds were on the thin side even for summer with no extras if you have a full house so bring a couple extras with you. Cabin wasn't well stocked with toilet paper, paper towel or dish rags/hand towels for the length of our stay and we had to buy extra paper products. Cabin is surrounded by neighbors with free roaming cats, neighbors were friendly though. The fenced in yard is nice for dogs but yard is mostly dirt/sand so expect a dirty dog! Dollar game was a quirky fun game to play and the wifi and Roku came in handy on a rainy day. Aaron was very friendly and easily reached over air b&b messenger check in was easy and cut and dry. Cabin was easy to locate and a gps will take you right to it. Over all we had a nice stay but if you're looking for a more secluded feel this isn't the place for you.

No one should pass up this place if you need a space to de-stress. There's just enough to do at the cabin and in the general vicinity (25 miles in any direction) that you can have amazing experiences but still feel relaxed. We went pre-season (mid-May) and I couldn't have picked a better time...we practically had the area to ourselves lol. Do not miss the canoe trip down the Au Sable. As for Amanda's place, it's so homey and nice, you will love it. Fire pit, bathtub, several bedrooms, game room, privacy, new carpet and lots of light -- what's not to love? The PermaLog is really cool -- doesn't seem to let in ANY bugs and it seems so sturdy and impenetrable. You will have to deal with the skeeters; it's a forest. Bring deet.

Nice cabin near beautiful Au Sable River! We spent a great weekend here fishing and hiking.

Everything was as indicated on the listing, it was a nice basic up north home. It has all the amenities you need and is close enough to town and other attractions without being in a tourist area. Also Amanda is very helpful and accommodating.

Amanda was quick to respond with information and gave tips on things to do.

The cabin was nice, warm and quiet. The king bed was comfortable and the location was perfect for our activities. Amanda was a great host who responded promptly to both our reservation request and our questions. The cabin was exactly as described and expected.

Amanda was a helpful and reachable host. The cabin is great for a crowded group. Mio is a nice small city. Definetely visit the river, gorgeous experiences with kayaking. Cabin was as clean as possible thinking that noone is living there constantly. The garden was nice and isolated. The kitchen items are great to cook, except from the oven. We had an unfortunate surprise with water but Amanda was really helpful to give information to overcome that situation. She also refunded the payment for the day. Even including that unfortunate water-well issue, I can say that the cabin is great and Amanda is a very respectful, nice and helpful host!

In town for a wedding. Perfect place to stay with my partner and our pups. We went on morning walks down to the scenic overlook and had breakfast in town at a cute diner. There were a few spiders and bugs that we vacuumed up, everything else was fairly clean. We would stay again.

The host did a great job with the place. It was very nice and clean.

Decent rural accommodation, very peaseful and scenic area. Water is quite hard and requires a softener, therefore I recommend buying drinking water.
