Such a cozy home. Unfortunately, It rained the entire weekend we stayed but we still had so much fun. Loved the hot tub, kayaks, and paddle boat. Friendly neighbors. Pretty view of the lake. Clean home. Great communication by property manager Tom. Will definitely be booking again.

Beautiful Lake View

Everything was as described and very comfortable. We’ve stay on this same chain of lakes for the past 3 years in different rentals and this location gets the prize for the best lake view. Very beautiful. Neighbors were friendly. Our daughters, 7 & 8, had a great time swimming in the lake. Great experience overall.

Perfect Fall getaway!

Beautiful, well appointed cottage with great lake views! We especially loved sitting on the large outdoor patio, right on the lake, taking in the fall foliage. Close drive to other fall festivities around Dexter: corn maze, pumpkin patch, cider mill, etc... Highly recommend!
