The house sleeps 16 in beds and has plenty of space for the whole family, extended family and then some. You probably haven't ever heard of Mesick, MI, but you'll be sure to talk about it after your stay with us. Mesick is centrally located between Traverse City (think Cherry Festival), Crystal Mountain Ski and Golf Resort, Cadillac, and Caberfae Peaks ski resort. We have over 12 acres for you to explore and the house is conveniently located 1/4 mile off of the snowmobile trail and close to all ORV trails. Bring all of your toys, we have plenty of room for parking. The Hodenpyl Dam Pond is 3 minutes away and you can enjoy all of nature by canoe, kayak or boat. There are many canoe trip outfitters close by, or bring your own and make a day trip out of it down the Manistee River. The possibilities are endless and we can help.

Smiling Moose lodge was a great experience for our entire group. We had three different families in our group and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have fun.checking in and out was easy, and communication was excellent.We enjoyed playing games, the fire pit, and eating together as a group. Over all experience was great! Thank you for hosting us this week Ryan and Holly.

We had an excellent stay at the Smiling Moose Lodge. When we had questions, Ryan (the host) got back with us right away with answers. The home was beautiful! The rooms were clean and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked. There was plenty of room to park all our vehicles. We ended up spending quite a bit of time on property. We would definitely return for another stay at this great location.

House was a great space from our group. Easy to get to Crystal Mountain from the house. Nice and secluded. Was grateful that we were able to park in the garage. Ryan gave us great communication before our arrival to make sure we had everything we need.
