Cabin by the lake

The lake was great for fishing, tubing, swimming, and had a nice sand bottom that easily allowed kids and pets to walk right in. Gregg and Brenda were super friendly andallowed us to tie our pontoon rental up to the dock.

Relaxation on Otsego Lake

The cottage was exactly as described, with a beautiful view of Otsego Lake. The location was perfect for trips into Gaylord as well as so many area golf courses. Check-in was a snap and the owners had things ready for us prior to and throughout the long weekend. It was the perfect way to spend a long holiday weekend.

Beautiful Labor Day Weekend

We really loved the cottage! It had everything we needed. It was also within steps of a great sandy beach with all the water toys we wanted. Also had a nice fire pit for late night fires. The hosts were wonderful! We would definitely come back.

Family getaway!

Lovely! I want to return each year. It’s so easy to stay here because the cabin has all the basic needs to cook if you wish and it has so many additional things. We enjoyed making our BBQ, making s’mores by the fire, kayaking, and paddle board. It’s just perfect for a family getaway from the busy day-to-Day schedule. The owners are very nice and servicial.

Pure Relaxation

The cabin we were in was very clean and up to date. The rooms were supp;ied with needed items i.e. dishes, pots and pans, towels , pillows ect.. Front porch was shaded so we could sit outside anytime and enjoy the great view of the lake. Clean sandy beach to walk on. The host and his wife were welcoming and willing to help if needed. Over all we went there to relax and we did. Great trip.

Perfect summer vacation

You are steps away from the beach, you can see the lake right outside the windows and have a direct view when hanging out on the porch. The inside of the house is cozy , well taken care of. We ate out one meal and cooked everything else at the house. Any store you need is 5 min away. Oh and the one meal we did eat out, the owner got us a same day reservation at the best restaurant in town, which just so happens to be walking distance. The kids loved the beach and all the toys, we fished off the dock, we made Kit Kat snores from the fire pit on the beach, all sorts of fun. Made great memories. We would definitely book again.

T

The cottage is not actually water front .the building is located behind the owner’s building. So we couldn’t see the lake from inside the house. But we had big enough space and table in front for dining where we could see the lake half view. And the beach front area (where fire pit was)were also welcome to stay and the owner and other guests weren’t there at all ,so we were very relaxed by ourselves and made fire every night there ,too. The 2kayaks available to use were very handy to use for our kids to enjoy. The owners were very nice. We had a dog to stay with us. We were all comfortable there for 3 nights. Thank you.
