Right on the water!
This is a cozy cabin, right on the lake. It was perfect for what we needed. Easy communications with the Host, she was very nice and accommodating. It was a great visit to Michigan and this cabin was a perfect "home base".

Beautiful Cottage
We had an amazing time at the cottage, it was very clean and well taken care of. We appreciated the small touches such as snacks, coffee and a bag of ice that was in the freezer. The decorations were beautiful and made the place feel very cozy. Bedding and mattresses very comfortable as well. We would definitely stay there again. Thank You

August nights
Lovely little place that couldn't be closer to the water! It was very clean and nicely equipped. The outdoor patio was great and we enjoyed the kayaks that were provided. Nicely decorated, too. Bedrooms and bathroom are small and we were a little tight with 5 adults, but all in all it was very nice.

A wonderful cottage
This charming cottage was perfect for myself and 2 friends. The weather eas rainy but cleared for beautiful sunsets. We even saw Northern lights. If the temperatures were warmer we would of kayaked. We had fun playing games, doing puzzles and takjng a day trip to Alpena. I would rent this cottage again when the weather is warmer to kayak and play in the lake.

Winter Weekend getaway
My husband and I work from home and were wanting a weekend getaway. We had no idea where we wanted to go or do. We came across this cottage and booked it right away. It did not disappoint. The cottage was so cute with amazing views. It had everything you could need. We are already looking for dates to come back in the summer so we could enjoy the lake!

Sister reconnect time!
Perfect, peaceful, clean, bright! So close to the water the living room felt like a sunporch! Owner thought of every little thing to make this cottage feel like home. Very generous snack tray, coffee, filters, baggies and such all supplied. Beds comfortable, we slept like rocks. Started the morning on the porch and ended the day in the same spot. Wonderful walking area to look at all cute well maintained cottages. Just what we needed and couldn't be more grateful!
