4 nights at Bunkhouse in the Pines

We had a wonderful stay at the Bunkhouse Among the Pines! Christine's cabin was a perfect place to rest after exploring the Traverse City area. The outhouse was clean and the outdoor shower was hot. We were very comfortable and enjoyed watching fireflies in the evening and birds in the morning. On our trip we went blueberry picking, cherry picking and hiking at Sleeping Bear Dunes. The location was perfect. Thank you Christine for being a wonderful host!

Weekend Trip to Bunkhouse in the Pines

My family absolutely loved staying in the little cabin. Lots of room and the necessities are already provided, including warm running water. Christine was an excellent host, offering us an extra night after missing the first from car troubles during travel. Very grateful for her kindness and flexibility, as we had a hard time finding the correct spot for putting up the tent after a long few days of travel. She was more concerned about the slant than the fact we were in the wrong spot. Hoping to return in the future!

Everything about Christine's place was exactly how it was stated. And she was so helpful with anything we might need. We ended up having to leave a day early but it wasn't due to Christine. We didn't know we had planned our trip on one of the hottest weekends in that area in years. Crazy hot. But we'd like to come back when its a little cooler! Thank you Christine!

Weekend Trip to Bunkhouse in the Pines

We loved our stay. Couldn't have asked for a better environment. A lot was provided that we weren't expecting (lots of dishes, chairs, tables, etc).

3 nights at Bunkhouse in the Pines

Christine’s bunkhouse is perfectly located—just about 20 minutes from anything your heart desires in the Leelanau area, right in the middle of all the action. The bunkhouse and surrounding buildings were a great touch and made us feel right at home, with everything we needed. Cedar, MI is just down the road with a charming little downtown, a grocery/gas station, and an ice cream shop. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
