Holiday rentals with a patio in Kalkaska County

Mark’s place was absolutely perfect. It was exactly like the photos and had everything we needed. I’m usually one who packs everything and the kitchen sink and I found that I didn’t need it because Mark-s condo had it all. He was very quick to respond to any questions I had which I appreciated. I also loved how the condo is located on the TART trail which made it super convenient to hop on for a quick bike ride. We definitely plan to return. Thanks again!

Our stay here was great for our little ski getaway! The house had everything we needed from a fully equipped kitchen, to a cozy living room to lounge in, to large, comfortable bed rooms. We even were able to bring our furry friend along with us. The host was very responsive, friendly, and flexible with check in. All in all we very much enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it!

We have stayed in other units in this community..none as nice as this unit. The place has had a lot of thought,care, and creativity to make this little place feel special. Kudos.

The condo was every the you could want. Had every kitchen appliance and a grill. Lots of good restaurants and shopping around. Highly recommended

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.

This studio condo was great! It was super clean with all the amenities I needed. Only thing the kitchen didn’t have was an oven, but I didn’t need it. Did I mention how clean it was? It was great to be right on the lake and there is also a small nature area next to it with walking paths

We had a wonderful stay at Rick’s super cute place! It was spotless, freshly updated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing sister weekend getaway. Rick was great to work with—communication was clear and easy, and he let us know that the apartment was ready that morning, so we could check in anytime at our convenience (no waiting around until the usual 3 PM check-in!). He even left a nice bottle of red wine for us—such a thoughtful touch. We don’t drink reds, so we left it for the next guests to enjoy. All in all, a very cozy, welcoming spot that made our trip extra special. Highly recommend!

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!

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.

Everything as pictured and described. We fit comfortably with plenty of room. Great location, close to everything. Host was easy to communicate with and friendly. Awesome gameroom for kids. Mother in law suite smelled a little musty, and also no closets or dressers in there for ur clothes. It would be nice if there was at least 1 dresser. But worked for what we needed.

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 only stayed for one night however it was the perfect pit stop on our way up north! The hot tub is a bonus!

I highly recommend this home! It was very neat and clean and set up for a group with fun things to do like foosball and poker tables.

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.

The home was spacious and clean. Plenty of places to hangout. The hot tub was great! We didn’t have the best weather but the pool would have been enjoyable if so. Home was stocked well with any items we may have needed.

The condo was perfect. Clean, comfortable and a great location to downtown. Cute restaurant with a patio right across the street. Was perfect for our group!

Beautiful accommodations. K.C. was a fantastic host and went above and beyond to accommodate us and made sure that we had a wonderful stay. Everything was perfect and we will definitely be back and recommend to our friends and family.

Kara was very responsive. The air conditioning was not working but they had someone out and it was fixed the same day. It was not as close to downtown as I would have liked but that was my fault for not completely checking out the location. Fantastic shower. Lots of room and super close to the bike trails. And gorgeous view of the water.

Jesse was a great host and we enjoyed staying at their place! We appreciated the private beach to play at and the pool was well maintained. There were plenty of food and entertainment options that Jesse recommended in their binder, and all were fantastic choices. The views were amazing from the living room/patio, and it felt very private. We couldn’t see any other guest and did not hear neighbors. It was very peaceful being on site and we could definitely see about renting the place again in the future! Jesse was a great host, communicated early and often, and made sure our stay was a pleasant one. Overall, great experience and thank you for letting us stay at your lovely home!

I stayed last week as I am traveling to the area for work. Last week I outlined a couple minor things that could use some attention and Jake is getting that all taken care of. this week I’m giving it five stars because it is a very great value a good location and the beds and pillows were super comfortable. The place is overall clean. Everything works well and it’s comfortable. And Jake is extremely responsive to anything or concerns you might have.

Had a great stay! I come into this area frequently for work and this was a great alternative to the Hotel costs which are astronomical in this area during the summer months. Place was clean, easy to access and was just what I needed for a few days in town.

Very peaceful and beautiful, I would definitely come back again.

Amazing view!! Very helpful with things around to do! Clean!!
