About this property

Cozy Waterfront Cottage- Reel Time

Reel Time is a cozy blue waterfront cottage and will make time fly. Inside, is an open floor plan on the main floor. The main floor has one bedroom with a queen bed and one full bathroom. The living area has a recliner and a sofa that has 2 recliners built in. There is a fully functioning kitchen, a table to sit at, and an island that is great for food prep and people can sit around as well. By the kitchen and Living areas go out the French doors out to a large deck with beautiful views of the water. We also have a table out on the deck to eat and hang out at. The second-floor loft has another queen bed with bathroom, walk-in closet, and has view of the water from the large upper windows. There is a walkout basement with laundry area and a cool tv/hangout room. The cottage also has high speed wireless internet. The sofa in the tv room also pulls out to a queen bed for extra sleeping. Outside, you can loose track of time….if you have kids there is a giant sandbox that will keep them busy for hours. We have a few sand toys located in patio area for the sandbox. Kayaks and paddle boat available to enjoy on the water. We also have a pontoon boat available at an additional cost. Please ask if interested. There are a total of 4 lakes connected by channels for hours of exploring and fishing. We also have beavers and bald eagles on the lakes See if you can find their nests and dams or the trees they chop down. Back on land, after enjoying the day on the water, fire up the blackstone grill for supper. Enjoy a game of bags (corn hole) before relaxing by fire pit, gazing at the fire and the gorgeous water views while eating s’mores. We even have a outdoor hangout area for you to enjoy and a second refrigerator for beverages and/or extra food. If you are still outside as the night quiets down be prepared for the symphony from nature (bullfrogs and crickets).

If you want to venture out from the cottage there are many local activities that can be enjoyed by all. Below are just a few of them...

Local/small town shopping in Delton, Hastings, Plainwell, and others. Local restaurants and bars, Bittersweet skiing, several nature/hiking areas, historic Charleston Park, Gun Lake Casino, Gilmore Car Museum, Binder Park Zoo, and more.

Awesome 4th of July Vacation!

We had such a wonderful vacation! The house was super clean, modern and had everything we needed! We swam, kayaked, had campfires, watched fireworks, played cornhole and did lots of fishing from the pontoon boat! The owners were so helpful and very responsive! We would love to come stay here again!

Christmas cottage

Our daughter recently moved up to Michigan and due to her work schedule, she couldn't come home for Christmas. Therefore, we decided to bring Christmas to her. Although I was apprehensive at first about doing this. I found this cottage where someone had mentioned that it was decorated for Christmas and it was very clean. Two things that I was looking for. It did not disappoint. The home was clean, decorated for Christmas, cozy and the kitchen was wonderful for preparing our holiday meal. I would definitely go back and choose this cottage. The views of the lake and the property were an ideal setting. I'm sure it is absolutely lovely in the summer too!

Excellent!

Wanting a quick getaway, we found a gem! Beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable, this place had everything we were looking for on a lake, even kayaks! It was close to Yankee Springs Recreation Area where we love to hike and the restaurants in town are also close and served great food. We will keep this place in mind for future getaways.

Cute Lake House

The house was very cute and clean. We enjoyed the garage bar area. It was a great space to spend time during some of our rainy weather. We loved the kayaks and the lake was very peaceful and quiet. We also loved the grill and firepit area. Cute house with everything you need!

Perfect Getaway

My family stayed at this cottage Mid October. The weather was rainy majority of the time but waking up in this beautiful location was a wonderful trade off. My boys especially loved downstairs and the blocks provided for play. The property was super clean, the house was absolutely gorgeous. Definitely recommend staying here!

Water is awful

The tap water makes the place darn near unlivable. Smells awful…and the entire house smelled when showering or running tap water. We went thru 4 cases of water a week to combat this. Owners didn’t seem too concerned. They were responsive to just about everything else.

A pleasant stay

Great setting right on the lake. The house was clean, contemporary, and supplied with all essentials. We were able to get out and spend time in Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. Despite the fall weather we had a perfect day to take kayaks out on the lake and explore. A perfect place to relax or get out and about. Brenda, the owner, was very pleasant and responsive to all our questions. A must stay.

Dye Family Trip

We loved the house. It was perfect for our family of 5. The boat was great. We fished, swam, and had a lot of fun cruising around all the lakes. We also really enjoyed the outdoor area where we could have fires and hang out. Our kids loved the sandbox. Overall it was an amazing vacation and our kids are already asking to go back every year.

Great time

We loved this rental very much. The weather was perfect. We fished, kayaked and took out the paddle boat. The party room off the garage is perfect. The only thing I wished that the lake was cleaner to swim in. We had a great time and will be checking dates for next year.

Gorgeous home with lots of fun amenities

My family and I enjoyed our stay so very much. I am a clean freak in this house, met my standard, which isn’t often. Brenda was extremely responsive when I had questions. We had so much fun on the lake in the paddle boat and kayak. The sun coming in through the window is amazing.

Lovely place

We really enjoyed our stay here. The chain of lakes is lovely and peaceful, and the house and yard is top notch. A few suggestions for future updates and comfort of guests: clean out the paddle boat before guests arrive; an umbrella for the table on the top deck so that there’s a place to get out of the sun; screens in the front door and doorwall to deck to open the doors for fresh air in the house. Overall we had a great time and excellent experience. Highly recommend!

Relaxing lake weekend

We had a great weekend relaxing at this beautiful lake house. The property had lots of little amenities to make our stay comfortable and just what we needed. Our kids loved the games, sand toys, having snacks in the converted garage, and my husband loved cooking on the blackstone grill. The sunrises and sunsets were stunning and the icing on the cake. Brenda was a great host and very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Smith

Host profile image
My husband and I are self-employed and live on a hobby farm out in the country. We love to spend our free time with family and friends. The cottage is one of the places we like to relax and hangout when we get the chance.

Why they chose this property

We love coming out to the cottage year-round as it is a great place to relax and also have fun. The cottage is in the small town of Delton and we love it there. People are friendly and so much to do. In the cottage I have a binder with information on local activities and there is something for everyone.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is on one of four smaller lakes with beautiful views and all four lakes connect through channels which is great for pontoon boat rides. Also, everyone feels safe in paddleboats and kayaks. There is a ton of wildlife to see when you are out on the water.
