We enjoyed our stay on Whitmore Lake! We found great restaurants in the area. The lake was fun for kayaking and fishing. The cottage had everything we needed for a romantic getaway weekend. The hosts even provided a bottle of wine for our anniversary!
Beautiful property! Right on the lake. Enjoyed the fireworks but also the peacefulness of the location, beautiful view every moment of the day. Hope to be back next summer.

Thank you so much! We are glad you had a good stay and would love for you to come back!
We loved our stay at Whitmore Lake. Julie’s cottage is beautifully renovated. So tasteful, but left a little of the ambience of the original structure. The location is fantastic and the view from the porch is unforgettable. We had swans visit us every morning.. Don’t hesitate to book the cottage.

Thank you Mark! We are so glad you enjoyed the cottage and noticed that we tried to keep some original aesthetic while giving it modern amenities. And the porch is my favorite place as well! Please come again soon!
We had tickets for the game and everywhere in Ann Arbor was super expensive (or already booked) that weekend. Cozy Cottage was perfect; comfortable, clean, and 35 minutes from the stadium. We also ate at nearby restaurants and avoided the crazy busy Ann Arbor places. Our hosts responded quickly to emails and messages via the app. I recommend!

Thank you Pete! We are so glad you were able to enjoy all our cozy cottage and its surrounding area has to offer!
We loved our stay at this cozy cottage. We were in town for a Michigan football game and it was an easy drive to and from Ann Arbor. We loved coming back from the game and playing in the sand, and relaxing by the fire pit. We enjoyed our coffee on the screened in porch with the beautiful view of the lake (and swans and ducks). Cottage is nicely updated and still charming. Perfect for our family of 4 (with 2 littles - age 2 and 4). Communications with Julie were great as well. We’d love to be back.
