This cottage has a great location on the water and provides boaters with an excellent dock and launch point for exploring the waterway. The cottage was comfortable and had everything you need for a stay away from home. The next-door cottages are close by, but the neighborhood was quiet and restful.

The cottage and the property were awesome. Very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed the beach and the dock, as well as the breeze off the lake. The neighbors were great - and introduced us to all their pets. One cat wandered over each day to hang out for awhile. Everything was really just perfect and we will be back again.

We had a very pleasant stay at the Bayside Cottage. We really were only there in the morning and evenings, but we were able to enjoy sitting out on the deck watching the wildlife and we enjoyed how peaceful it was. The water is very clear, but only about 2 1/2 to 3ft deep at the end of the dock. Our son tried to fish from the dock, but didn’t catch anything. I would suggest renting a boat or going on a fishing charter if you really want to catch something. We booked this sort notice so there wasn’t anything available when we looked.

Fully Rquipped Home Away From Home

We had an amazing time! What a relaxing trip. We spent most of our time at the VRBO and did some sightseeing. This place is stocked with all your needs. There is much more then what it listed but Im sure its difficult to keep an up to date inventory. Loved that they had a crockpot and griddle. Great area, great neighbors. We will definitely be back!

Boating the Islands, Checking Out the Towns an d Vicinity, and TOTAL RELAXATION!

For the first three days I enjoyed boating among Les Cheneaux islands and checking out Cedarsville and Hessel Michigan a bit, and the surrounding vicinity. The last day's great weather would've been perfect for boating -- something I love. But instead of boating, I decided just to enjoy the day at the cottage. It was so QUIET and PEACEFUL. The tiny wavelets lapping onshore and the occasional boat in the distance were virtually the only sounds I heard. The sun was warm, and everything felt comfortable and looked bright and cheery. When darkness came, I lit a small bonfire in the firepit and enjoyed it as well. SO RELAXING ALL DAY! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PEACEFUL, QUIET, AND RELAXING DAY! So glad I passed on boating and stayed in the cottage the last day.

Great Setting for a Family Vacation

This cottage is the perfect spot for a family vacation: spacious yard, on-site laundry, beautiful private waterfront with sand beach and dock. We wish the sliding screen door to the deck worked and that there were better sleeping mattresses.

Wonderful family vacation!

The owner was very timely and responsive to questions. The cottage had everything we needed for a family of 5 ( 15 year old twin boys and 12 year old girl). We rented a pontoon boat locally - a must for this area. Can walk to town easily for ice cream with the kids and drinks at the local distillery for adults. Would absolutely rent again!

Upper Peninsula Gem

We truly enjoyed our stay at Tom & Rachel's property! The location was perfect - right on the water with a sandy beach and a dock to fish off of. We caught smallmouth and largemouth bass, carp, trout and perch. The cottage had all the essentials to make our stay comfortable. We hope to visit again soon!

Exceptional time

From the location of the home right on the water to the little town of Cedarville, this was a great time. The neighborhood was quiet, the waterfront view and access was worth every moment you looked out the window or stepped onto the dock. We had a great time, fishing from the dock, enjoying local restaurants all the sites the UP has to offer.
