Wonderful cabin in a quiet wooded area but a short bit away from everything. Slept 6 adults and a toddler comfortably. Very nice common area with room to spread out. Very good experience!

Loved the location on a quiet road. Easy access to town and the county beach. House was well taken care of and clean, comfortable beds. Only downfall was the private beach access was not somewhere we would want to swim. I think the water levels were high which probably affected the beach. But like I said, the county beach is just down the road. Owners were very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Kemp

Host profile image
Hello and welcome to our cottage! My wife and I have two daughters that are full of lots of joy and energy. We love to go for walks as a family and travel around the world. We are Michigan natives so we love to enjoy all that our beautiful area has to offer. It is our hope that your time at our cottage will be enjoyable and a peaceful place to stay.

What makes this property unique

We love our cottage for it's quaint setting, surrounded by beautiful, tall oak and maple trees. We also love the location as we are just minutes from downtown Caseville and a short walk to our 'sugar sand' beach. The skylights upstairs provide natural lighting into the home and a beautiful view of the stars above at night. The wood stove in the dining room (although unusable) creates a warm and cozy ambiance as well as the handcrafted wooden beams in the living room.
