Summary: My family stays in Dexter twice a year to visit family. The place we have been staying for years is no longer available for short stays so we scrambled to find another place. This place was beyond perfect. Cozy, plenty of space, comfortable beds, and stocked with anything you may need. My husband and kids enjoyed the easy access to the snowmobile trail. Will definitely book again!
