Wonderful cottage that sits literally at the edge of the lake. So many fun things to do in the area. Check in and check out was an easy process. The pontoon boat was awesome. The host was very kind. I have stayed at two other cottages on the lake and this is easily the best of the bunch.

Great Family Vacation

This was a great place to stay with a young family. There were many amenities on property, and we especially enjoyed the pontoon boat. The owner was very helpful and easy to communicate with. We will be back!

Great vacation

This was the perfect vacation for our family of 6. My husband, myself and our 4 kids had a great time. The lake is beautiful and the property was perfect. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and exploring the islands with the pontoon. The kids loved the kayaks and paddle boards. We played cornhole and had a fire with s’mores every night. We will definitely be back

Great little cottage on Long Lake. Very close to the water. Not fancy but comfortable. Multiple opportunities for lake recreation and the pontoon boat was a lot of fun. The three AC window units were a plus during the hot and humid days we experienced during our stay.

Perfect getaway

My family loved our stay here. We had 3 adults, 3 teens (17, 15, 13) and 1 child (12). We took the pontoon boat out for fishing; we all used the paddle boards and kayaks; the raft was probably the highlight because the kids jumped and dove off of it for hours. We went for hikes and enjoyed the fire pit area. It was overall an amazing weekend. Thank you, Bryan, for letting us stay in your lake house.

Amazing!

We had a very relaxing vacation. The lake is so clean and clear! We spent a lot of time on the pontoon exploring the islands. We also did a lot of fishing and swimming in various parts of the lake. We enjoyed all the boating options as well. We also played corn hole, cooked out, read outside, had many fires (and s’mores), and fished from the pier. We had a great 4th of July week!

Perfect Vacation Spot

This was our first time staying in Northern Michigan and we hit the jackpot choosing this home. The location is great as it is a short 15-minute trip to Traverse City with easy access to Sleeping Bear Dunes, wineries, kayaking trips, etc. Bryan met us during the check in process and filled us in on everything that we needed to know for our stay. The house was very clean, and the yard was absolutely perfect for our family. The views of Long Lake are gorgeous, and the lake is very clean for swimming, etc. Definitely opt for the water package as the kayaks, boats and the pontoon were a big hit with our family. We will definitely be back.

Sometimes properties are over exaggerated. This one was not. It was clean and communication with the owner was great. The water toys were an added plus.

Beautiful lake house

This house was perfect for a weekend getaway with some friends. The house is in great shape and came with many great amenities. It wasn’t far from downtown traverse either. Would definitely recommend renting here!

This is a seasoned home on a beautiful lake front

If you are looking for a Great Lake front, Great Lake views from kitchen and living room (so close it feels like you are on a boat) this is it. Comfortable home , no frills but everything you need. The lot location was cool!!! We felt secluded !!! All the outside room you need. The pontoon boat was a 2018 brand new perfect boat. Weather was cold, so we only went out one day for three hours. Host was very helpful.

Fell in love with this lake house and location!

Property was exactly as advertised. Everything was clean and in working order. Special touches with the basket of info for restaurants and other local recommendations. The check in was so easy and the communication from the owner was excellent! We relaxed each night at the fire pit with s’mores and family while seeing the moon reflect off beautiful Long Lake. The weather was wonderful. We had a couple of days right at 70 degrees and then some in the 60’s. Nights were cooler which made gathering around the fire so much fun! We were able to visit Sleeping Bear Dunes which is a must see and had a great meal at The Cove in Fishtown. Everything you need is so close, but at the lake house you feel far away from city noise. The house is literally right on the lake! We will be returning for sure!!

Incredible Location

Our family had a great time at the cottage and especially enjoyed the access to Long Lake. We enjoyed the kayaking, paddle boards, pontoon boat, loons, outdoor games and just enjoying the overall lake scenery. The cottage was suitable for our needs and had a great view of the lake. We would definitely consider going back!

I had a fantastic time reuniting with some friends and enjoying the kayaks, fire pit, and cozy cottage on the lake. Great property amenities, and an easy drive to downtown Traverse City and the Traverse City airport. Could not have asked for a better place to stay!
