The house was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was stocked enough to make simple meals. Hot tub was great! Wifi was slower than just using cell service, but the TV's still worked just fine.

Rapid River Retreat was perfect for a long weekend for relaxing. Close enough to Traverse City to take advantage of the many activities but far enough to be quiet and private. Ken was very quick to respond when we had a question about the coffee maker (it’s a fancy one :). Super relaxing to spend some time in the hot tub. Would absolutely visit again.

The house is very cute and clean with all the amenities! The beds are comfy. The property is very cool and the hot tub was a very nice bonus! Can’t wait to stay here again
