Kitchen was well stocked. The cottage was a 20 minute drive to Mackinaw City. Secluded and quiet with a 15-20 minute drive from many towns. The house has a window AC unit but has fans in every room which my family appreciated! Would stay again!

It was a nice and clean home. Kristi was readily available when I reached out for a question. The only downfall is we wish it was more clear that there was only one air unit in the living. It was 90 degrees while we were there and the rooms got quite hot. Overall a good stay!

We came out of town with my husband for his work. I work from home and the WiFi full provided quality service for all of my work and video calls. The house has all of those little things to support your stay. Fully stocked kitchen, cleaning items and more. Great location and would stay again. The livingroom ac made a huge difference, worth the upgrade. Being able to bring our dog is what sold us on it.

Wonderful stay

We had a great time staying at Topinabee pines cottage. Pictures are accurate to current condition, location was great for being close to the water but off the path a little for some quiet, and it was very clean. Twin mattresses were comfortable, but I would recommend an update to the queen mattress. Other than that, it was great. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Fabulous Family Cottage

This cottage is everything it promises to be and more! We absolutely loved the fire pit area! Family together time around the fire pit was priceless! This cottage was comfortable and well equipped. We were thankful for this blessing of a weekend. It drew our family closer together. Thank you so very much!

Relaxing fishing 🎣 trip

Have stayed there on other occasions, very nice quiet place to go to after a long day on the water, very relaxing and comfortable place, very well maintained and everything you need to cook with. It is decorated with wood carvings, prints, wall art of all kinds! I will stay there again anytime I’m in the area. Thanks to our host!

Perfect!

It was a cute little cottage. It had everything you would need for a stay. I loved that it was clean and perfect location for our day visit to Mackinac Island. We basically only stayed the 2 nights but would definitely stay as a destination. We didn't get a chance to visit Mullet Lake but would if we could have stayed longer.
