Very nice! The RV had everything we needed for our stay. Cozy bed, nice towels and the kitchen had all the items to make coffee and or meals. The yard was nice and we enjoyed having a fire in the fire pit.

Third Time's a Charm
We love this place. Comfy bed. Diane messages back to answer questions promptly. Quiet area. Quaint town with lake views. Hope to continue making this part of a yearly summer vacation.
The location was within reasonable driving distance for the locations we wanted to go to. We had a glitch with the power when we first arrived, but Diane was able to help us through that. Once we got that figured out everything went smoothly. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay.

Felt like home!
My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway. It was our first visit to the UP. The welcoming personal touches upon our arrival were amazing. Diane and Allen even stopped by to introduce themselves and ask if we had any questions. Allen had prepped our first bonfire. Diane was very quick to respond with any messages we sent and the property instructions were really helpful. Having WiFi at the property was a lifesaver to download hiking maps since cell reception in the UP is scarce.
The bed was very comfortable and all amenities worked well. We would definitely consider this property again.

Nice place for the money
All the previous reviews are correct in the information they have given in their reviews. One thing that should been know and there is nothing that the host can do about it. The trailer sits very close to the road (20 ft) and also very close to the neighbor's driveway. The road has quite a bit of traffic on it, so I didn't find it very quiet.

Camper
The camper was alright. It was close to the road and the water pressure and temperature were up and down. Otherwise, it was a decent place to rest our heads. We were able to see the deer really close up, they weren't too scared of people. The yard was set up nicely.

Back to nature
We loved the fully supplied, spacious camper and the woodsy surroundings. The deer that visited us was the icing on the cake! The location was central to the sites we wanted to visit.
Second time we have stayed at Deer Crossing. Another quiet, relaxing, excellent experience. Love being able to sit by a fire and unwind at night. Usually, beds when I travel are too hard for me. The bed here is fantastic and I get a good night's sleep.

Everything was Perfect!
Our stay at this property was absolutely perfect. The property was beautiful and the RV very clean. The owners thought of all the little details, from firewood for a bonfire, bug spray and snacks to coffee pods in the morning. This rental offers everything you could need and want. We look forward to staying here again soon.

Labor Day weekend trip
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! The camper was clean and comfortable. The hosts thought of everything...bottled water was left by each side of the bed and chocolates were left for us too! Lots of DVDs to choose from and the campfire was all setup for our arrival. Great location for trips to Munising, Tahquamenon Falls and Whitefish Point. We did Pictured Rocks and Shipwreck tours, visited Munising area falls, Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point and Oswald's Bear Ranch. Had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend staying here!
Diane was a great hostess for our first UP visit. The space is just right for 2, there's a Dollar General right by, and very central to Pictured Rocks, Mackinac and Munising.

Weekend Getaway
This was just what we wanted for our first weekend getaway as a couple. The location of the RV was in a good spot to be within an hour ish of many places to visit in the UP. The RV was well kept, the bed was comfy, the fires in the pit were relaxing, the deer and humming bird visits were fun, the quiet and stillness all around was great. No cell service was a plus. The town of Curtis nearby was lovely. Overall, we had a very enjoyable time.

We really enjoyed our stay in this RV-it was practice for us for our future travels! I even appreciated the lack of internet-it truly added to our sense of peace and quiet. The hosts had a fire ready to be lit in the fire pit and we totally enjoyed that! I would recommend this host and site.

Perfect weekend getaway
The 5th wheel was cozy, well appointed and exceptionally clean. The yard was lovely, complete with visiting deer and a fire pit pre-stocked with wood for a campfire. Highly recommend.
