Great fall getaway

Stayed at the cabin with my son and his girlfriend. We used to go boating on the chain of lakes when he was younger and he had been wanting to go back. The cabin was charming, very small but the perfect size for two couples. Very well equipped kitchen, the lake views were great, the hosts very helpful. It is not the Marriott but it was a darling cabin on the lake!

The only improvement could be a possible air conditioning unit. Most days were fine - until the 92 degree day. We did love it, just a suggestion

Wonderful week at Burt Lake!

Dennis's cottage was great, clean and as advertised. It had everything we needed for our stay, including movies and games for rainy days :) The deck facing the lake was nice to relax and enjoy meals on. The sandy beach area and shallow water are perfect for young ones. We had a wonderful week and look forward to future vacations here. Thank you for sharing your place, Dennis!

Amazing sunrises and sunsets. Beautiful little association at the end of a cul de sac. Dated duplex fishing cabin. But very clean and cute. We were there for a soccer tournament. Wish we could have taken more advantage of Burt Lake.

Great place!

The cottage was clean & well maintained. It was well stocked with basic necessities. The owner was very nice & friendly to talk to. We didn't use the outdoor fire pit, etc much because it was pretty rainy, but that all looked well maintained. Thank you!

End of Summer vacation!

We loved our stay on Burt Lake! The cottage was great. So reasonably priced. Fully stocked kitchen. Plenty of storage space on bathroom shelves Two comfortable bedrooms. Family room/eating area was very nice. Loved the picnic table for meals outdoors on the patio. Grill was great. Neighbors were very nice. Loved having moorings available for our jet ski and ski boat rentals. Firepit area was so nice in the evening. I'm a very nervous renter and Dennis was great answering my questions. We loved relaxing with our kids before they headed back to college. It was really nice to have a great view of the lake! Clean. Beautiful lake!

Perfect lake getaway!

The setting on Burt Lake was great, and a very short drive into Alanson to pick up the extensive cycle path network. The cottage was well appointed and the owner couldn't have been more helpful. The neighbors made us feel very welcome, and we had a really relaxing weekend.
