Fun relaxing family week away from home. Lake is nice and quiet for canoe and paddleboat rides. Had a very minor issue that host sorted out right away. There are books, games and activities for kids so you don’t have to pack everything. Kids loved fishing and jumping off the dock for swimming

Wonderful weekend getaway

We absolutely loved staying here. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed, the lake was beautiful, and we loved using the paddle boat. The beds were very comfortable, and the extra space in the basement was nice. We will definitely be going back!

The house was very clean! They have thought of everything! The bedrooms had comfortable beds and plenty of plugs to charge devices. There were fishing rods, tackle, and even a filet knife!We loved swimming out on the lake, and since it’s no wake, we could swim everywhere without fear of being taken out by a boat. Fishing was amazing! We were pulling them in one after another! The first bass we caught was huge!You can tell this is owned by people who care, and not just a property management company. There was a handwritten note and a bottle of wine, along with a binder of info awaiting our arrival. The washer and dryer were perfect to have so we didn’t have to bring laundry home. They even had free and clear detergent, which is a must for my family.I honestly cannot say enough good things about this place! Thank you for your hospitality!

Weekend getaway with friends from Germany

We had some friends visit from Germany and wanted to give them a Michigan „up north“ experience without driving 4.5h. This fit the bill perfectly. Wonderful little cabin by the lake, kayaks, fishing and Harrison Twp close by. Really nice weekend, great and responsive host.

Awesome lakefront cottage!

This cottage was perfect for my wife and I to relax and for our kids (10 and 7) to play in the water and chase the fish (and turtles). We took out the canoes and kyaks and tried our hands at fishing off the dock as well. Having firewood onsite was a nice surprise. The host, Kevin, was super informative and responsive. Highly recommend this place!
