We welcome children! However, parents will need to provide their own supplies for kids (i.e. high chairs, pack and plays, etc.) and safety equipment that they feel necessary (i.e. child-proof locks, safety gates, etc.). The cottage is however outfitted with a crib, bedding and changing table.

**Your safety matters. Exterior camera are placed near the front and back doors but do not look into any interior spaces or onto the deck.

**We highly recommend getting trip insurance to protect your investment.

Internet- because of our rural location we only have access to DSL WiFi, and maintain the fastest service available. The speed is usually 5-10 mbps but at times can drop below 3. In general you should have no problem with streaming services such as Netflix, working from the home, or Zoom meetings. The connection however can be inconsistent, and therefore at times frustrating. During those times it is best to have only one user online with no streaming tv. Also you may be able to use your cell phone as a hotspot to boost your speed.

We do not allow Door Dash, Shipt, Instacart, or other delivery services to access the property, so please do not give them any gate codes. You are however welcome to meet them at the main front entrance. This is because in the past they get confused, lost, and deliver to the wrong homes. We have had instances of spoiled groceries and in the worse case scenarios, broken gates. The gates cost upwards of $500 to repair. **Please know that you will be responsible and assessed for any gate damage by you or your party, or any visitors.

Another relaxing getaway at Crews Lake
Every spring we go on a farm/country trip. This was our first time going to the same place again because we loved it so much last year. The house has so much charm and the setting is beyond serene. You feel like you’re removed from the chaos of a city, but everything you need is just a short drive away. We loved this place and cannot think of a single thing to make it better. The dogs had a blast as well, and no one wanted to leave!

Beautiful setting for a relaxing vacation
My husband and I enjoyed the peaceful, natural surroundings. The wildlife was fun to watch and it's just a short drive to see a Tigers game or explore the area. Such a beautiful property! Thanks so much.

Great for a family gathering. The property is clean and serene
The views are great!! Far enough away from the city for quiet relaxation yet close enough to get anything that you need for supplies.

The perfect country getaway
We’ve stayed at many different country-like rentals over the years and this is probably our favorite. Picturesque, bucolic, quiet, charming, spacious…all perfect words for both the house and the property. You feel like you’re hours away from the city but you’re only 10-15 minutes from any store or restaurant you’d ever need. The house is well stocked with any item you may need and lots of seating and relaxing spaces to unwind. One bedroom and bathroom are downstairs, perfect for someone who wants to avoid stairs. None of us wanted to leave, and I’m pretty sure we’ll be coming back next year!
