We’re so glad to hear you had a great time! It means a lot that you and your family felt at home and enjoyed everything the cottage had to offer. We really appreciate you choosing our place and would love to welcome you back anytime!
Now that’s a compliment! 😂 So glad you and your family had a great time and appreciated the clean space. We try to make it feel like a home away from home (just maybe a little cleaner!). You’re welcome back anytime!
Clean, organized and spacious living quarters. My family had a great time here, Memorial Weekend, even if the weather was soo Michigan. Sunny, cool, rain showers all in an hour!! Backyard was enjoyable, with the hot tub, corn hole, and firepit!! What a great stay.

House was very clean and ready for us at check-in. Jason reached out to provide us with information about the corner store for quick shopping needs. Jason was very responsive when we reported that the WiFi was down. We had plenty of space and enjoyed our stay.

Worked perfectly for our trip
Great location for our group. Everything was great. My only complaint would be the bed was a little bit firm for my liking. Loved the fenced yard for the dogs, it allowed them a little more freedom to play and we could relax without holding leashes.

Thanks so much for the kind words! We’re happy the location and yard worked well for your group, and especially happy the pups got to enjoy some freedom too. We hear you on the bed and appreciate the honest feedback. We’ll look into ways to make that more comfortable for future stays. Hope to have you back again soon!
Very spacious and updated cabin. Having the guest house was amazing for our family. We had older kids and felt like they had their own place. Lots of games for every age and the hot tub was perfect. Great fenced in back yard for our dog to play too. We had a great time and made memories.
My adult nieces and nephew stayed at rental as our large family gathered for a commemoration of life of deceased elder. They had cousins visit them at site for re-connection. All said they enjoyed the property immensely.

Thank you for sharing that, it means a lot to hear your family was able to gather, reconnect, and enjoy the space during such a meaningful time. We’re honored that the property could be part of it. We wish you and your family continued peace and comfort, and you’re always welcome back.
Booked this property for an annual summer vacation with family. We were a group of 6 adults, 4 kids and we had a great time. Loved how the yard was fenced in so the kids could play, the additional bunkhouse allowed for privacy and extra space, and it was very clean. Check in/out process was smooth, the owner checked in via text periodically, lots of games and extras for the beach provided. Would definitely recommend!

Thanks so much for staying with us and for the kind words. I'm glad the fenced yard worked out for the kids and that the bunkhouse gave everyone some space to spread out. It's always great to hear when families can kick back, enjoy the extras, and just make good memories. You’re welcome back anytime.
My girlfriends and I spent our nineteenth annual ladies weekend at this property. As we've gotten older, we have very specific needs with sleeping arrangements and cleanliness. This property was just right. We were all crossing our fingers about the hot tub with cleanliness and spider webs and stuff like that. It was beyond perfect! While I wasn't crazy about the management company, the home owners were terrific with communication.

We’re so happy to hear your annual ladies weekend was a success and that the home fit your group’s needs perfectly. It’s wonderful to know the hot tub and overall cleanliness exceeded expectations, that’s something we take seriously. We truly appreciated your communication as well and would be glad to welcome you back anytime.
Fantastic stay! The cottage was wonderful: clean and well acquainted with everything you could need. You could literally show up with clothes, food, firewood and would need nothing else. Short, easy walk to a great beach. Hot tub was awesome on the cooler mornings. Host was timely with information and communication. Easily the best rental we've experienced. We will be back. Already looking dates for next summer. Thank you so much!(ps: only bummer we're the Spartan cornhole boards, lol. Go Blue!)

This made us smile, thank you! We’re so glad you had a fantastic stay and felt right at home. Love hearing that the hot tub, beach access, and setup hit the mark. And hey. You’re welcome back anytime, already looking forward to next summer! Annnnd Go Green! 😉
We had the most perfect stay. We had 2 families with 3 children (all 2.5 and under). We had a fenced in yard for the kids to play, our own quiet space for each family, plenty of fun, relaxing accomidations for the adults for when the kiddos were sleeping. A quick walk to the beach,and within easy driving distance to lots of parks and resturants in town. The additional precheck in communication with the hosts was so helpful. The house and guest house were very clean and had plenty of bedding, towels, and toiletries. They really made us feel welcomed with thier sweet welcome treats and all the fun games available to play. We will definately be considering a trip back here!
