John and his fiance Shaina were very responsive and friendly (even inviting us to share a beer and conversation with them after dinner) and I loved staying in their home which was gorgeous and very well decorated. The location is perfect for walking and exploring downtown Cadillac. The downsides: my fiance and I were very uncomfortable in our bed (full size - sauna room) due to the length of the mattress, we are both at least 5'8+ and had to sleep with our legs bent all night.. my in-laws were in the Master room and complained of neck pain and back aches and not sleeping because their mattress was WAY TOO soft and lumpy (I'm assuming old) and the vent was blowing on their feet all night. I was also disappointed that the bathroom was shared and we couldn't lock our door (there was no latching it). Similarly, the breakfast only included cereal bars so more like a "snack" than meal. I really enjoyed the house and hosts but for a bed and breakfast, I think they should work on improving both.

We highly recommend John and Shaina’s home; their place was perfect! The home is a gorgeous Victorian with tons of character. It has a large porch where you can enjoy coffee in the morning and a beautiful sitting area in the main room of the house The home is extremely clean and the rooms are spacious. The location is perfect, walking distance from the lake and town including a nice brewery and restaurants. John and Shaina are very warm and special people. They make you feel comfortable and welcome and are always available and responsive. They gave great recommendations for wineries and breweries for our travels to Traverse City. As Airbnb hosts they take a thoughtful approach with attention to the little details, giving you the best experience. They go out of their way to make you feel right at home. They are super flexible and accommodating; truly wonderful, generous people and we’re so happy to have met them! This has to be one of the best Airbnb experience we’ve ever had! The next time we pass through Cadillac we will absolutely stay there again.

This was the perfect first AirBnB experience. Although we unable to meet in person, John and Shaina were very hospitable and friendly via text. All of our needs were met and we enjoyed the room. Thank you once again!

Fantastic little get away at a really cool house with awesome hosts. Even the neighbors joined in at making us feel welcomeby inviting us to the "Gator Bar" for some drinks. Hosts John and Shaina were wonderful and made us feel right at home. They were quick to provide food and entertainment suggestions (many within walking distance), and made our stay great despite running into some bad weather the day we were planning on kayaking The Pine. Thank you and we hope to stay again.

John and Shaina were friendly and gave great advice about local places to eat. They shared their amazing Victorian house with its beautiful woodwork and made us feel at home. We enjoyed the short walk to downtown with restaurants and the lake. This is a great place to stay!

Everything was great. Super hosts.

Everything was as the web site described. John and his fiancee were very nice. They gave us a little tour of the place and its history which was fascinating. We will certainly stay here again!

John and Shaina were really great hosts and made us feel so welcome. Their home was very well maintained and truly a unique stay in a very nice town. I would definitely stay there again.

三叠泉是如此热情。我们有一个美好的呆在那里。我们真的很喜欢点心房!

热烈欢迎;对于家庭和夜后接入家庭提供的信息。展示了如何在室内调整温度。

Terry and Sandie were very welcoming. I booked last minute and they still had everything ready for my arrival. Very clean, cute, and cozy home! I will definitely stay again if and when I am in the area!

We had a last minute change of plans and didn't stay with Terry and Sandie. They were very responsive with our communication and would definitely stay here if we make our way back up north again!

我们是一对退休夫妇采取了西方之旅。这是我们的第一站,并首次配备的Airbnb。一切都像宣传的那样,舒适,干净,友好。肯定会推荐。

可爱的家在一个美丽的地方。感谢您留下美好的印象!

Nice, private room in a quiet neighborhood. Terry and Sandie were very welcoming and friendly, and made our stay comfortable. Convenient location, and the price is right. Description of room and facilities was accurate. Would definitely stay again.

The accommodation was as described. Small but comfortable and safe.

很干净。一切都建立了我们我们的到来。将建议。完美的位置正是我们所期待的。与芯片和浸在等待着我们的到来很好的接触。

我们有一个美好留在凯迪拉克!我们需要一个地方书写撤退,这宽敞的房子是完美的。有足够的空间让我们走到一起,作为一个群体,也有单独的办公区。我们的主机是非常敏感,甚至提出请务必提供一个额外的桌子和椅子,所以我们将有更多的写作空间。这是有用的,不胜感激。该是一个可爱的标志,欢迎美国和水果,面包圈,和牛奶治疗。地点是伟大的,步行距离之内的一些大饭店,等我肯定会推荐这里逗留。

Dave's house is really great and he has provided everthing during our stay

我想到了我的男友和另一对夫妇周末凯迪拉克,我们这里喜欢我们的住宿非常多。房子本身是一个美丽的老式的家庭是非常干净和维护良好的,有很多在整个更新。我们喜欢的布局,它的正式饭厅和书房独立和客厅,大厨房,三间卧室在楼上用大量的壁橱空间。并与高高的天花板,木地板和窗户周围的一切,我们只是觉得有这么多房间的地方。床铺和家具都非常舒适,一切装饰高雅温馨,吸引人的方式。厨房里摆放着炊具和餐具,让我们能够做饭的时候,我们不喜欢外出。邻里和位置都是伟大的。只用了20分钟,开车到Caberfae峰的滑雪板,并于当晚这只是一个短暂步行到吃饭的可爱的市中心地区。虽然我没有满足戴夫或天使,他们都真棒处理。天使打电话给我所有的登记入住信息,而当我有几个问题以后,她通过电话立即可用。此外,当我们到达那里是在冰箱里为我们可爱的小惊喜!我肯定会推荐住在这里,并计划让自己很快再次这样做!

伟大的主持人,伟大的家庭!我们有这样一个好时机,我们已经补充百吉饼,苹果,新鲜的全脂牛奶,咖啡...一切比我们预期的更!

What a neat old house. Perfect for our weekend ski trip. Be prepared that the house is older so it has some quirks but that is to be expected. The location is perfect with close proximity to multiple restaurants and bars. The host was very attentive and always available to answer questions. I would recommend this house to anybody looking for a place to stay in Cadillac.

Chris was the perfect host. We had everything we needed and felt if we needed more it was just a text away.

我们都喜欢住在这里!房子是巨大的,正是我们需要的周末。谢谢!

This is a wonderful place with very kind, thoughtful and considerate hosts. The setting is so peaceful and beautiful. Our hosts provided supplies for smores (which we had meant to bring but forgotten), and set up our campfire for us each night. A great experience, above expectations. I would definitely return for another weekend getaway.

Mary and Steve were so gracious and helpful before and during our weekend in Cadillac. We came to kayak the rivers and bike the trails and they provided lots of helpful information ahead of time; plus the apartment was FILLED with great materials (maps, visitor guides, etc.) to help us even further. The home - the lower part we stayed in - is spacious, modern and serene. It rained our second day there and - though our outdoor plans were dashed - it was so peaceful to nap on the couch with the door open and the rain softly falling on the trees outside. As others have said there are no full kitchen facilities, but a fridge, microwave, and coffee supplies (which were SO COOL - the aeropress) were sufficient for our purposes of breakfast and leftovers. Check this place out if you're looking for a relaxing weekend in the woods!

Everything was wonderful! We had such a great time and the "Retreat in the Woods" was a perfect place to relax and unwind for a weekend. It was so comfortable. The description was mostly accurate but also a little deceiving. The pictures show a kitchen and an extra room that is not included, and we were also unaware that our space was in the basement of a house. We were not bothered by any of these things, as we had everything we needed and the listing was well over-accommodating, but I just wanted to give future guests a heads up! We did not get to meet Mary and her husband but they were just a phone call away in case of need! The woods behind the house were beautiful and there was plenty of wood to use for a fire. Overall, our trip was amazing and we will absolutely be back to visit the Retreat in the Woods!

Without a doubt, Mary's home was one of the best AirBnB's that I've stayed at! The rooms were both gorgeous and immaculate, the amenities were much more than we were expecting, and the hosts were very helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend this listing.

Had a glass of wine with us on first day of our stay. Was as pictured. Nice place to stay nice people.

The location of this home is perfect in being both out in the woods yet close to Cadillac and accessible from and to the highways. Everything was superbly clean, well furnished, and comfortable. The grinder and aeropress made for a great cup of coffee. As I am something of a coffee geek that worked well for me! We had a great time! Thank you!

We've been to many places and stayed at many Airbnb spaces, usually similar price, but this was literally best spot we've ever stayed at.

Mary and Steve’s Retreat in the Woods is perfectly captured in the name. The backyard is acres of oak and beech woods with miles of lightly used trails. Even if you do not venture out, the sweeping porch provides a comforting view of the nature beyond. This home was built by the owner, Steve. Knowing this brought me great joy, for each room is delightfully spacious, clean, and detailed. We enjoyed a deeply relaxing stay in this home, especially due to the open uncluttered feel that is so different from our own small apartment. We’re already planning our next visit.

John and Shaina are a delightful, hospitable, accommodating couple. Their home is lovely, the rooms are comfortable, and the smiles genuine. They are full of suggestions about activities in the region. Even their guests were pleasant, sociable people. We used their BnB as "home base" for visiting Interlochen and the area. The drive was reasonable and scenic. An enjoyable place to stay.

Awesome place! Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. We wslked to restaurants about 2 blocks away.

Host made us feel welcome even though they were out of town. They provided complimentary soap and nice towels to use. Great neighborhood in walking distance to downtown. They house is full of great decor! I walked around the downstairs and just looked at all the cool pictures and details of this house. Weather we were playing a game of pool, sitting on the porch swing or relaxing under the backyard pergola, we enjoyed everything this place had to offer!

Fantastic and beautiful historic home. Owners quiet, but welcoming and pleasant. Complimentary water, coffee, breakfast bars, wifi; all of which are very nice.

John and Shaina were so gracious and their home is exquisitely detailed Victorian splendor. It was a wonderful place to stay and I plan on returning and bringing my husband, this time.

Everything was great! As a novice AirBnBer I was hesitant, but their home and my overall stay experience exceeded my expectations by miles! Not only did they welcome me at the door, I felt welcomed. The house is beautiful and the rooms were exactly as in the pictures! I am thankful for the experience. I look forward to using Air again and hopefully a chance to stay with this wonderful couple again!

This is a lovely place, exactly like the listing. The private little kitchen area and snacks is a brilliant addition, and kind of the hosts. Going in I was a bit worried I would be invading someone's home, but this place is brilliant and there were no worries in this regard; You can come and go as you please (even me, returning at 3am etc!) and the hosts were fantastically kind. Responses were quick. You can walk down town to the lake and food etc. Lovely stay, I highly recommend it. I think it would be good for a couple or single.

Fue un gran oasis en el medio de nuestro viaje recorrido Lago Michigan Lago Círculo. Tienen una hermosa casa acogedora, con tanta atención a los detalles que viaja como el café, pasta de dientes, aperitivos y aw esa bañera después de un largo día de conducir era exquisito; recomendaría mucho él.

Hands down the sweetest couple! They were extremely hospitable and welcoming. Highly recommended!!! :)

Very nice house and host. We love them.

Yet another stay at my wonderful Stop in Cadillac. :) A nice place to stay. Sweet couple. I like how their enclosing their porch that will be really nice.

I really enjoyed my stay! The upstairs has three rooms they use for Air B&B. Two are bedrooms and one is an open room stocked with food and some relaxing chairs. They let me use the downstairs kitchen to make some pasta for dinner, which was really nice of them. They were very accommodating! Sandie even made a book with all the local restaurants and has all the wifi passwords on a check-in/welcome letter. The house is probably a 10 min walk from downtown Cadillac. The room was very clean with plenty of towels and pretty much anything you can think of.

Sandie y Terry eran una delicia! Eran extremadamente flexible cuando no podía decir exactamente cuando nos íbamos a llegar. la casa de su 1920 es precioso y la puesta en marcha de Airbnb es muy agradable. La sala de aperitivo relleno con cualquier cosa que pueda desear o necesitar después de un largo día de viaje fue muy apreciado. También disfrutamos de nuestro café y un desayuno rápido en la sala de refrigerio en la mañana antes de empezar nuestro día ocupado. Su casa es muy limpia y la cama era cómoda. Sandie ha ido más allá para hacer que los visitantes se sientan como en casa. Gracias. Tengo ganas de estar contigo el próximo año cuando viajo a través de Cadillac. Muchacha

All was well with the house

Excellent place to create memories! Charming and clean. Everything g you need is provided

The Cardinals Nest was located near the hosts home, situated along a quiet wooded area. The home is charming, built as a traditional Norwegian Stabbur home. Slept 6 very comfortably. Mollie our host had all the necessary amenities provided for our stay.

If you love a unique and quaint place to stay the Cardinals Nest is perfect for you. Right out of a Norwegian fairytale is the best description for this cottage. You will learn something about Norwegian history, art, and architecture while staying in this cozy cottage. Mollie has gone above and beyond expectations to make your stay enjoyable. This is one of the best and most interesting Airbnb experiences we have encountered!

We had an amazing and peaceful stay. I cannot think of how this property or the host could be any better. My family was amazed at the beauty and we had a great family retreat. Communication from Molly was spot on and very timely with our travels from Florida to northern Michigan. Location is within short distances of wonderful destinations and we took advantage of our time to visit them and return in the evening to a very cozy and peaceful location that is miles ahead of staying at a local hotel. I am so greatful that I was able to locate this property and look forward to staying again. In considering all the comforts of home provided by the host and their family and their welcoming checks to make sure we were happy was well above and beyond and expectation that I had when using Airbnb for the first time. If you ever get to this area, I without doubt, recommend that you stay here. Anything that was needed was provided and very accessible. You can tell that a lot of heart and thought went into making visitors feel like they are home away from home. I want to personally thank Molly for the hospitality and I will be booking again and look forward to going back to Michigan and the The Cardinal's Nest. This is a destination in and of itself to just relax and spend great time with family and friends.

The Cardinal's Nest was a great experience! The host was quick to respond to questions and very helpful and kind on site. The rental has a lot of character and was extremely comfortable with all the necessary amenities. I would certainly recommend this rental to others and plan to rent from them again in the future.

You'll be enthralled with this lovely lovely lovey Norway-inspired home!!!! Amazing and beautiful rose mallare painting is all around and is such a gift. The place is stunning. The craftsmanship within the home is supreme top-notch. The beds are so comfortable we slept like rocks. The bedding, towels, rugs, and all the extra details are extraordinary. This home is a wonderful retreat!!!!!!! "OFF-THE- HOOK-BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!" We will be back. Thanks a million times Mollie!

The Cardinal's Nest was the perfect location for our mother-daughter weekend. The house was immaculate and so wonderfully designed and decorated and the hosts are super friendly and inviting. We felt like we spent the weekend at a fairly tale cottage. I would highly recommend staying here!

I am in awe at the workmanship and decor. Clean, and everything you need. Behind the main house and family-run quilt and craft shop. Friendly people.

John's Victorian home is quite extraordinary. I wish we spent more time there to enjoy the history of the house and common areas like the pool room and outdoor breakfast table. The Sauna room was cozy - the sauna itself was a lovely treat. The bathroom is gorgeous, though sharing with other guests is not ideal - the spaciousness and cleanliness make up for it. I would definitely recommend a multiple night stay at this beautiful home. Thank You!

My husband and I stayed here one night. Communication with John was great, and we were able to get into the house right upon our arrival. Their dog, Princess, is very sweet and lovable. The house and our room were clean and comfortable. We were worried that the shared bathroom might be an issue, but we never had to wait and it wasn't a problem at all. Lovely place, wish we had more time to spend there and enjoy it!

Very welcoming and had a perfect stay with John and his family!

My son and I had a very nice time staying at this Victorian Retreat. This is a very well kept home. Among many things, I love the spacious bathroom with high ceiling the most. What a treat! Thank you for preserving such a great hours and for sharing it with us.

John, Shaina, and Tinkerbell were as friendly and welcoming as their home is lovely. Our room was extremely comfortable and stocked with everything we could need (extra blankets, pillows, etc.). My family was extremely comfortable and would love to stay here again.

This place was awesome! What an amazing historic home. John and Shaina could not have been more accommodating! They are super nice people and even offered us extra amenities that happened to be available the weekend of our stay. I would definitely recommend this property! I will be back when I'm in the area again. Jason - Indianapolis

So we booked this little spot off Airbnb for a surprise up north getaway for my wife' Bday. Was our first time using Airbnb so I was a little nervous. The place was awesome and the hosts were fantastic. We booked the luxury suite and it was very spacious. House had an old charm to it. Was about 35 mins from Traverse City so it was a good location. If I was to visit up north again, this spot would be high on my list and would strongly consider booking it again.

Although our stay was brief, John and Shaina went out of their way to help us! The place is just as pictured, lovely and full of history. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we had the best night sleep after a very hectic day. I would definitely come back here in the future if I'm in this part of the country again.

Prompt response all the time, helpful when guests have questions. Left detailed and clear notes in room when they were not able to be home and welcome you. Pleasant experience!

John and his fiancée were very kind and flexible. We arrived late and they gave us thorough instructions on how to get into the house and what to expect. Their home is gorgeous and very clean. Both were very informative about the area restaurants and activities. True to their word, their dog is very friendly and welcoming!

The host canceled this reservation 153 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The house is very nice , clean and convenient . very large kitchen and full of dishes and plates tissue box in every corner , it is true short walk to the lake and the county park . the garage made it very easy to keep our bikes . The AC is just a window unite in the living room but did the job most of the time . Plenty of towels and the W/D are very convenient .

It was a great place to stay! Very clean and well sized house. We held our fantasy football draft there and it went well. However the internet could be hard at times with having to re-sign in every 5-10 minutes if you weren't using that web-page constantly, we had to resort to using just one computer which worked out in the end. Place is a couple of blocks from a beach and has a nice yard for grilling and a bonfire. Close to town so easy access to the supermarket and other food. Would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway!

Great place!

We had a great time! Close to the beach, great backyard. It was perfect for our little getaway!

Great place to stay. The house is very clean and super spacious. Sara made the whole process really easy and highly recommend a stay here.
