My family and I love this home and location each year that we book an annual stay. Like past years, we loved every minute. We also noticed many upgrades this year. We'll be back!
This cottage was absolutely the best! It had everything even a crockpot! Every kitchen utensil, even dish soap , laundry soap, foil, spices, 2 refrigerators and double ovens. It has so much space, and a first floor bedroom. Even a room with a ping pong and pool table. Our grandchildren loved the little sandy beach and 2 kayaks for fun! We couldn’t have had a better cottage for our family!
This was the best stocked and cleanest house- just darling. It is on a very busy street but is close to everything. We had a wonderful visit and our host was fantastic!
We had 11 teenagers and adults and this was the perfect place. Very clean and spacious with lots of room for our big family group. Well-equipped kitchen and I LOVED the dishwasher!
Loved this home- plenty of room and beds for all 10 adults. Close to Nubs and Boyne highlands. Great surprise was the garage with pool table not in the description and was also great to hang store and dry snowboarding equipment. Will rent again l.
Property was exactly what we were looking for. Kids really enjoyed the pool/ping pong table in the garage and playing on the small beach. Tons of fishing and boating and very close to everything we wanted to enjoy. We would stay here again.
Multiple-day stay with many friends and family members. The home is spacious and well-outfitted. Hosts are great to work with. I look forward to our next trip already!
The property was very clean and comfortable and was within 10 minutes of 2 ski resorts: Nubs Knob and the Highlands. The owner was very helpful and communicated very well.
Very nice home, we had 6 adults and lots of space. Very close to Petoskey State park, where we enjoyed the beach. The only drawback was the busy road. Lots of traffic so just had to be cautious in and out. We took a few excursions to other places in northern Michigan, the location was a good hub.
The property made accommodations for very young and old! The house provides generous space for all. Large walk in closets in each bedroom, a large pantry in kitchen along with an large island and counter space. Very nice!
This is the second year we stayed at Crooked lake Cottage -- and we are already planning for next summer. This year, my husband I travelled with our 2 kids, my mom and an aunt. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and we never felt crowded. The location is SUPER convenient to so many things to do. We loved fishing, kayaking, sitting on the deck and playing ping pong. Thanks for the wonderful memories!
Loved the spacious cottage, plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy the lake. My morning view of Crooked Lake from the comfort of my bed was my favorite part!!! We enjoyed our ping pong tournaments...great bonus with the property. Well stocked and spacious kitchen and we enjoyed time on the deck eating meals. We would rent again for sure!! Thanks so much Anna for your great communication and quick responses. 😎🇺🇲👍
Nice, clean home on inlet lake that channels to other waterways and lakes. The grandkids enjoyed the sandy beach front. It is on a busy but convenient road. Our family of 6 adults and 2 children had plenty of lounging area, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The kitchen was great with 2 convection ovens, large island, and walk in pantry. Close to Mackinaw, Boyen Mountain and Petoskey. The only thing I would warn about is no air conditioner. We stayed in cooler fall weather so that was not an issue for us.
Highly recommend! Wr had a group of 12 and everyone slept comfortably. Excellent location even being on a busy road. We had a variety of ages. The game room in heated garage was a big hit with pool table and darts. We were able to close the door to the main house to avoid the teenage noise! We skied Nubs knob which was a short drive. We went bowling at Northern Lights and walked around downtown Petoskey. Centrally located to most activities and also spent most of our time hanging at the house. It was spacious and very comfortable! The owner was very nice and quick to respond to our questions. We will definitely be back.
The only major complaint.... rain but that just moved us indoors to play pool and ping pong. There was plenty of room in the livingroom, den and kitchen. The kitchen table gave us plenty of room to spreadout at. There were 2 refridgerators which helped us store the extra food we brought.
Petoskey was a great location in northwest Michigan
Our family enjoyed our stay in Petoskey. We were able to take day trips to the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island. Our family enjoyed all the local beaches where our adult children and grandchildren loved looking for Petoskey rocks.
Our accommodations met our family’s needs. There was plenty of room to spread out in the house and the lake was beautiful for sunrises and the night sky was great for star gazing.
Our only issue with cleanliness was seeing a mouse in the laundry room attached to the garage and a couple of mouse droppings in the pantry. We didn’t notify owner since this was the evening before our departure.
This is our 2nd time using this great lake home for our family vacation. The house fits our large family and dogs perfectly. The only reason, I did not leave a 5 star rating was we did run into an issue with the master bedroom shower leaking on the lower bedroom, that resulted in us not being able to use the shower in the master. The owner was responsive and did send the handyman to look at it, but this is something that should have been revealed to us prior to our stay. Overall a great house in a great location.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Nice spot, no hot tub
This is a nice spot on Crooked Lake, one of the best lakes anywhere. But, the listing says they have a hot tub and they don’t. The owner was very friendly and communicative until I asked her where the hot tub was. We just figured it was an oversight on her part, but we would have loved an apres ski soak! That was part of what we booked it for. Take that off the listing and it’s 10 out of 10!
