    4/5

    Our family (3 kids 5,7, & 10) really enjoyed our stay at River Haven. Of note, the entire property was very well maintained. We chose this cabin for the private river frontage and location to nearby attractions such as traverse city and the sleeping bear sand dunes. It did not disappoint. The river was great. Very clean and well maintained river bank. Fast moving water and lots of wildlife including Mallards and Deer in the backyard.

    The inside of the cabin was also well maintained and clean. Nothing fancy but it does the job. The kitchen has everything you would need.

    Upgrades that we would like to see would include a better bed in the loft. I think that area would be the preferred bedroom in the cabin if provided with a better bed. Hot water tank runs out very quickly (we got 1.5 out of 3 kids washed up in time lol) but it's a cabin so somewhat expected.

    Only true con of the property is the damn road being right there. When the cars finally stop and you can hear the water it's quite peaceful!

    With a better bed in the loft this property would of got 5 stars from us, otherwise very nice little cabin.

    Best part of the property is the backyard. W/ a great back deck, fire pit, and the awesome riverside screened gazebo it's hard to beat for the price. Cabins in this price range are rarely this well maintained.

  • Beautiful view, the house needs some updates.

    3/5

    We had to shovel our way from the driveway to the porch to be able to bring our stuff into the house. We are both in our 70's, this should have been taken care of. There was ice under the snow on the walkway. The mattress in the bedroom close to the bathroom is so saggy, you sink to the middle. The bathroom cabinet needs repair, when you open the doors the wood piece above falls out. Would not use vrbo again, the add on fees are excessive.

    4/5

    A relaxing place to stay near Traverse City. Cabin is great. The location on the river is a plus, but the road traffic noise is a bit of an issue until you get use to it. Over all, we had a great time.
