Positive experience all around. Great communication by host. Cottage was clean, well supplied, and perfect for the two of us. Cottage was updated but also retained touches of past decades which contributed to the quaint feel. Great location and beautiful view of Hamlin Lake, even though this is located across a small road from the lake.

Dune View Cottage - Excellent Spot!

The Dune View Cottage was perfect for our weekend get-a-way! All the amenities, spotlessly clean, great communication with the manager/owner, and they even did extra for us for a surprise birthday. WOW, this was great! This is a must stay location, and we’ll be back!

John was very helpful and prompt when answering the phone or text questions. This wonderful cottage was well appointed with the little things we needed. Along with being clean. The only small things I would suggest, would possibly be more flexible check in and check out hours. And to pay less fees and more for the place even it the price was the same price. But again, over all an excellent stay.

Peaceful and Relaxing Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this well-equipped little bungalow. We had everything that we needed to enjoy a relaxing time away in this beautiful setting. We could enjoy lake Hamlin or just a short drive away we could also enjoy Lake Michigan. We would definately book here again should we return to the area.

Perfect spot to get away from it all

The views were lovely and the neighbors friendly. There was a boat rental you could walk to and a store for ice cream. We relaxed and enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need. Our hosts answered all our questions very quickly.

Nice cottage on Hamlin Lake

I was very happy with the total experience booking this cottage. The pictures are very accurate. This is a beautiful little cottage that our family found very comfortable and convenient. Kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, and utensils. Very nice neighborhood. Right across the street from Hamlin Lake. Not far from Ludington and very close to Ludington State Park. I definitely would recommend and would not hesitate to book again.

Great weekend getaway

This little house was perfect for my husband and I. It’s clean and well stocked, although we didn’t do any cooking. We had a small fire in the fire pit. John recommended a restaurant called Stix that was fantastic! We were there a few times, sometimes to eat, we went bowling, and watched football. We brought our bikes and took a ride around the neighborhood. It was beautiful! I brought a paddle board, however, it was too windy to use it, but there is a spot where I could’ve gone. John is very attentive and helpful. Thank You!!!

Great quiet stay

Went there to be near Ludington State Park to kayak and paddle board. This was a great location and close drive to the park. Not easy access to Hamlin Lake but you see it out the window. Loved the grill for cooking and the fun with the corn hole game that was provided. We also did a lot of stovetop and oven cooking. Each morning we slept in which is unusual for us when at home.

Lakefront neighborhood located in a detour zone, but a quick call to the owner (he was responsive and helpful) clarified the location for us. Great property, exceptionally comfortable. A wonderful place to bring your fur-babies for a get-away. I highly recommend this property!

Weekend Stay

In town for a wedding and it was a perfect place to stay with all the amenities we needed. Fully stocked kitchen supplies makes life much easier when traveling. The dog bowls and towels to wipe paws by the door were appreciated! It was great to be able to bring our spry senior dog so he wouldn’t be stressed in a kennel. We all loved relaxing in front of the big picture window. Would definitely recommend this property.

Quick trip

Wonderful short stay after dropping off daughter at college. Our first time in the area and we were able to being our small dog along. It was just perfect and a wonderful way to end the week after mixed emotions dropping off the “baby” of the family. Especially loved the air conditioning as we noticed that most cottages don’t have it! Highly recommend.
