This was a girls getaway and the place worked perfectly for us. Very clean and cozy. We did a day trip and enjoyed the hot tub in the evening—-very clean and easy to use. The hosts provide an extensive selection of games and we enjoyed listening to the wide variety of albums on the record player. I would recommend ‘The Happy Place’ for anyone visiting the Boyne City area.

We totally enjoyed our stay-we were a group of my family( myself, husband 16 yr old son and 23 yr old son and gf) plus my sister, BIL and nephew (4 yrs old) The open feel of the main area was great! Our king bed in the man was soooo comfy! We did use the fire pit area once (so peaceful!) Location is great! close to Boyne for skiing and so close to the cutest downtown- we visited the Stiggs brewery and Boyne City Taproom (highly recommend this place) Totally knocked it out of the ballpark with the vinyl record player and awesome selection, sooo much fun listening to these. Would def stay again when in the area!

Great location for family with kids

Really enjoyed our stay at the Happy Place. Great location a few blocks from downtown. A huge perk is the bikes that our available to use. Our kids loved riding the bikes and playing outside on the quiet street. There are tons of games around the house that our family enjoyed playing. Hope to visit again!
