My thought processes was where can I go within driving distance with Bentley(my fur-baby), hike and take in beautiful sunsets on the beach.... After a short search Michigan and Highway 31 Cabins checked ALL the boxes! The airbnb hosts Charlie and Andra were great! They responded within minutes to my messages, gave detailed/easy to understand directions to their location and instructions on how to enter the cabin along with where to park(all very much appreciated!)... the area is super cute, half circle of cabins, complete with a fire pit. Once inside everything looked up just as pictured on their Airbnb site; no surprises. My favorite part was the information binder with "insider/local" tips, love exploring the hidden gems to local areas. Lots of amazing sites to see within a reasonable distance. Pictured below are a few of the places I explored during my stay. I'm not telling you where I went... you'll need to book Highway 31 Cabins for the inside scoop. They put a lot of effort in on mapping out locations(all in the information binder); I'm not just going to give it away... ;) The entire process from booking, checking in and out was seamless; overall a great experience!

Cloud 9 was clean, quiet, and I really appreciated having a full kitchen (the stove is a portable…read moredouble hotplate, but good enough). Hot water is VERY hot--be prepared for that the first time you wash your hands . Bed is a little soft, but tolerable enough for a couple nights. The parking situation was not as satisfactory. You need to park at the back of the property, which makes for a bit of walk. Wi-fi kept cutting in and out, which was a problem seeing as I'd brought along some work to do. There isn't any closet or hanging rack, which would have been quite handy. But I'll deal with not having one here, seeing as overall the place was clean and comfortable.

The cabins are comfortable and clean, and the owners are very nice. We stay at the Cloud 9 when we are fishing for salmon and steelhead, and the owner has always given us some helpful hints and tricks to land fish. I've always gotten the feeling that they just want everyone to have an enjoyable time, no matter why they are up there. We have stayed in Cabins 1 and 4. Cabin 1 has a bedroom and a living room area, and cabin 4 is more of a studio type cabin. Both have kitchenettes with everything you need. There is a swingset behind the cabins that my son likes to play on, and also a provided fish cleaning station so that you can bring your catch back with you. You can't go wrong staying at the Cloud 9!

We checked in late, but were contacted by the motel and made arrangements for the room to be open and waiting for us. We are traveling with a pet and they made us feel welcome to have our furry family member. The location is great, an easy walk to the beach and downtown. We opted for the river view, walked out the room and there was the river. Made for a beautiful place to watch the sunset. Quiet property and well maintained. There are rooms being worked on but quiet during our stay. I will stay here again next time I am in town. Will also recommend this to friends and family.

But, someone came quickly once I rang the bell as the sign told me to, and we were checked in quickly and efficiently. The room was small but clean. The bathroom had been recently refurbished, though the tub drained slowly. Bed was comfy and while the heater was loud it kept us toasty on a chilly October night. My main complaint would be the lighting. The switch by the door turns on a small light over the table. There are lamps you turn on by hand on the chest of drawers and over the bed, but no light over or near the sink outside the bathroom. Not really convenient if you need to shave. Not a bad place if you need to stop for the night (and by morning the parking lot was no longer empty), though if I were here longer I'd probably look for someplace with larger rooms and a few more conveniences.
