Family Vacation
We had a great time at Silver lake. The dock and beach access were wonderful! Our family loved it. The house had everything we needed for a lovely home away from home. We have two little kids, so we didn't need a lot of space. It might be a tight squeeze with more then 2 adults. It was clean and well maintained.

Comfortable. Clean. Trundle in second bedroom not really comfortable for adult. Wonder if regular size bed would fit in there- but, it was OK.

Cozy Cottage with Amazing View
My friends and I had the best stay at the cottage; it was perfect for a weekend in Traverse City! The host, Katie, was very helpful and attentive and we had no issues with anything during our stay. The cottage was very clean and provided a cozy atmosphere for fall in TC. The view of the lake was beautiful; we enjoyed watching the sunrise through the windows each morning. Would definitely book again!

Nice small cottage
The property was exactly as advertised. The cottage is very small, but nicely updated inside. The water frontage and docking are very nice and the lake bottom is sandy. Our stay was excellent and Katie was a very responsive host whenever we needed anything. Recommend putting some more storage in the bathroom for toiletries.

20th Anniversary Trip
A lovely cottage on a beautiful lake. We had a wonderfully comfortable stay with easy access to Silver Lake, Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and close enough to drive to Mackinac Island! It was great to relax at this cottage after a busy day of exploring. Highly recommend!
