Relax and enjoy

We were a little disappointed in the smell and condition of the carpeting. There were a few other items that should have been “caught “ before we entered. I took care of the necessary things and we were so pleased for the rest of the stay. It does need some amenities, of which I left a note on the table. I do believe the cottage is a work in progress and it was very comfortable and cozy. I would stay again. Loved feeding the birds and watching the swans. The neighborhood geese in the yard are entertaining but messy. It listed as having internet and wifi but it was not available. Also no TV but after a couple of days I appreciated the quietness and being media free. It is a perfect spot for visiting in Kalamazoo and grandkids in Millersburg, with long time friends in the Middlebury and Shipshewana area. For us, it was a great spot for three weeks.

Newly weds.

Where do I begin? Everything about this experience renting was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had from renting. From the professional and courteous communication with the property manager, to the picture perfect sunrises and sunsets. This was absolutely the perfect quaint house as it was described and I will forever remember this trip. I will be recommending to all of my family and friends. Absolutely 5 stars!!

Perfect for an extended stay in the area

Very friendly and responsive property manager. I enjoyed the peaceful lake and morning runs on the country road. The home was very clean and the kitchen had everything needed. I had a very comfortable stay.

About the host

Hosted by kathy

This was a year round home for many years but have now retired and moved out. Love the opportunity to share the cottage with others. Its an old place and needs to be used gently but its peaceful there and the lake is beautiful.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in the Chicago area and we always vacationed on small lakes in Michigan. It was a dream come true to have a little cottage on a lake of my own.

What makes this property unique

Quiet, serene, setting. Friendly neighbors. Close to Sturgis for anything you need anytime of day but still in the country enough to feel like a private getaway.
