I gravitate towards National Forest ares in summer. In 2013 I stayed at the Pineaire's "Schaumburg" cabin (living area, bedroom, & one bathroom) during the months of June and July. I could not have been any happier anywhere else with the accommodations! Nearby are the Ottawa National Forest, the Nicolet National Forest, and the Sylvania Wilderness. My dog, Zeldi, and I like to hike. With the Pineaire as our base camp we progressed through 258 miles along sundry trails, some within walking distance of the cabin. Bob could not have been a nicer host. About once a week he would do a quick "spruce up" of the Schaumburg while we were out on a hike, and he would make it a point on occasion to ask whether anything was needed in the way of linens, towels, etc. After my stay, I now consider the Schaumburg cabin my "Michigan Summer Home". (And ... by the way ... the rental rate was extremely reasonable!)

Unexpected stay at the   "Barrington" cabin for one night on our way farther up North.  Very clean and well kept with a lot of charm.  Enjoyed a restful and enjoyable stay with a long walk on some of their trails with my dog who was welcomed.  Reasonably priced and very gracious host.  Hope to have a planned stay in the future.  Thank you.

U-Haul truck had a blowout.  U-Haul arranged overnight stay at Pine Aire. Nice, clean, spacious.  Bob was so accomodating!  A charming place and a charming host. The "Barrington" was a great retreat from our flat tire adventure.
