Great Family Vacation Spot

I stayed at the property with my wife and two kids (3 & 9mo). Nate was a great host and the property was filled with activities for the young ones. The beach was great, and we loved using the kayaks and the firepit. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice relaxing spot.

Peaceful getaway

Loved the stay! So many great activities on the property like bikes, kayaks, games, a bonfire pit, binoculars for bird watching, a grill and all the supplies to whip up a good meal. The area is close to many stores and ludington is a nice small town with lots to see as well. We felt welcome and very relaxed.

Short Man’s Cottage

The short man’s cottage at Tallman Lake was just as advertised; clean, comfortable, quiet, and plenty of room to spread out for our party of 10. This was a quick trip to the area but would definitely book with Nate & Brenda again.

Extended weekend family getaway

Nate and Brenda were very friendly and welcoming. The location was very beautiful and peaceful. Their cottage home was very warm and inviting also kid friendly which was very nice seeing as we have three young grandsons. Nice fire pit for having a little bonfire and s’mores with the family. Also sand and water for our grandsons to play in. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

First time visitors to Michigan

While in Michigan, we wanted to experience a quiet lakeside cabin. The family had a great time kayaking on the lake and fishing from the boat, as an added bonus got to watch a bald eagle fly around us! Enjoyed the deck for morning coffee, was even able to watch a crane catch his breakfast! Was a great trip, thanks for sharing a part of Michigan with us.
