VRBO Review

by Rick S
overall great stay
our only complaint is that our cell phone service was inconsistent. May just be AT&T.

Thanks Rick! Yes, we've found that Verizon seems to be the best provider in the area and all others are hit-or-miss. We are glad you enjoyed your stay either way 🙂

Guest Post-Stay Survey

by Julie P

This property is absolutely beautiful!! Many thanks to the owner for sharing their home with us! And, the rental company was wonderful to work with from beginning to end. You have exceeded our expectations and we thank you! Our time away could not have been any nicer.

Outstanding!

by Mary Linzee

We had a fantastic time at the Sleepy Bear Cabin! The cabin was in a great location and exactly as advertised, if not better! Kitchen had everything you needed to cook (rarity in rentals), the beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were updated, and it was very clean. My kids enjoyed the wood burning fireplace and the screened in porch. Communication was great leading up to our stay and then we were checked in on during our stay to make sure we didn\'t need anything (we didn\'t!). We would absolutely stay at Sleepy Bear Cabin again on our next visit!

We all said that the property was perfect and worked out great for us!Every time I texted you, I heard back in 5 minutes. You were extremely responsive. Even when I texted later in the evening that we could not get any of the major networks on the family room TV, to watch the NCAA tournament, you had David come over to help us with the problem. He was extremely helpful and showed us how to work the crazy remote. We kept apologizing to him that we bothered him so late. He was so sweet to say that it wasn't us, but that you had been having trouble with that TV.

Cozy Getaway. We had a wonderful long weekend at Sleepy Bear cottage. The home was clean, comfortable and well stocked. Nice updates in the kitchen and bathrooms and I loved the Bear/Mountain themed decor. Highlands Vacation Rentals was easy to work with and had easy plan when we were running late. The home is in a nice neighborhood with easy access to all activities and sites in the Highlands/Cashiers area.

This cabin is wonderful. It has a wonderful wood fireplace and a generator. If you go in the winter and take plenty of wood, this is the perfect place to be. Not too far from town, plus is a big plus.This cabin is wonderful. It has a wonderful wood fireplace and a generator. If you go in the winter and take plenty of wood, this is the perfect place to be.
