Love lake life

Beautiful lake, it was a wonderful stay. The cottage was so cozy. It was easy to get to. The deck and back yard was great for sitting and having a campfire, watching the stars at night. There was easy access for kayaking and fishing. Great place to go for a long bike ride. Plenty of places to go hiking for the day. Looking forward to come back again.

Perfect Weekend Away

We were so thrilled with this cabin. You usually expect something a little more rustic when booking in Michigan, but we were thrilled with all of the conveniences and appliances. The dishwasher/washer-dryer were so nice and the kitchen was well stocked and made our stay so comfortable. The furniture was all cute and comfy and the back patio with lake access felt very private even with neighbors close by. The hosts went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of and were so sweet. We absolutely would stay again and would recommend to all of our friends.
