The cottage was just as pictured and described. We were very comfortable and had all we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The location was perfect for us. We got to go fishing near by and just enjoyed the beautiful sunrises and sunsets looking out on Lake Michigan. We would recommend this cottage to anyone wanting a quiet get away.

Lovely house and property with a huge yard. Very clean!! It was easy to check in and out. There is no WiFi and the service is spotty but it wasn’t much of an issue for us. Our dogs loved the yard. We grilled and had a fire each night and swam in the lake every day (we walked down a bit to get to the more swim-able part of the beach). Only thing that would improve this place for us would be a fenced in area of the yard for our pips—then it would be perfect!

Everything was great especially the view! There was plenty of space, a stocked kitchen, huge yard and beach and very clean. If I had to critique anything it was the lockbox with the key in it. A little difficult to figure out. And for safety reasons I would recommend some sort of motion sensors outdoor lighting especially by the back door. Also instructions on the heaters/breakers would have been helpful. Again not complaining just offering some feedback. (A pizza cutter would be nice) . Thank you for the

Peaceful getaway

We had a cool weekend at the home, but it was relaxing and peaceful. The sunrises were amazing over the lake. The home was exactly as pictured. Everything you needed was available. The house was set back on the lake and was very private. A great place to stay. Warmer weather and we would have enjoyed the water. Beautiful beachfront

Very Clean Property

The house was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Phone service is sketchy. There is no internet at the house. We didnt mind though as the goal was to enjoy family time outdoors and unplug for a while.The walk from the house to the beach across the yard is 250-300 yards, much farther than I thought it would be. The beach was ok. Lots of rocks in the water made it uncomfortable walking and playing. This of course is no fault of the property owner. Also a fowl smell at the beach that came and went. Unsure if that was due to septic tanks or some other issue. The view is gorgeous. My kids loved eating outside on the deck every day. Having your own private beach area is very nice. The setting of being in the woods and also having the lake there too was great!

OMG...if you're contemplating booking this home, JUST DO IT!!! The location is magical, from the vast green space for the kiddos to run and play, to the firepit and plenty of wood for fires and s'mores, to the private beach with spectacular Lake Michigan views! We had the best time ever!! And the sunrises...holy cow!!! The home is set up for everything imaginable and very kid friendly (our grandchildren are 4 and 1). They offer beach toys, sandchairs and floats to use during your stay, too! Amy and Ben are gracious hosts and we will rent again for sure if vacationing in that area again!!

Beautiful view

The cabin was very cute and well organized for maximum capacity which we appreciated. We loved being on the beach and having a fire every night. There was a grill so we were able to make a nice dinner one night. Loved that there was a washer and dryer and supplies to use it.

Relaxing trip.

Nice house off the lake. We really enjoyed the house and the lake except for the minor confusion of the kayaks and canoes directly located straight back from the house. We found out the hard way they didn’t belong to house for guest use.

Relaxing long weekend

Had a great Thursday - Monday stay. The home has everything you could need to enjoy a nice weekend away. I enjoyed coffee by the water in the morning and enjoyed sitting in the yard later in the day taking it all in. Enjoyed Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, local bars playing chicken poop bingo, and great food. So many things to see and do within an hour of the home. We loved that we could have our pup with us too!

BEST VRBO IN THE UP

We loved staying at the cottage with our family! The house was clean and the set up was perfect; 3 beds in 1 room and a queen bed in the other, plus a dishwasher and washing/dryer was great too. The best part about staying here was the HUGE yard for our kids to run around with a fire pit and 300 feet of beach front! The sand was perfect and swimming was beautiful in crystal clear waters! We can’t wait to come back!
