Second time staying here and really love all it has to offer but was super hot so we missed the AC this year . Tried to keep it cool with closed drapes and fans but humidity was brutal. Small dehumidifier required emptying 2-3 x a day. Box fans could do with a good scrub and rinse down.

Thank you for staying with us once again. It is not often we get extremely warm on the island but we did have a very warm run early in July. I would’ve been happy to bring you some new fans or even a window air conditioner if you needed it. Please don’t hesitate to reach out next time. My goal is to have you enjoy your vacation. Thank you for staying with us

The Vintage Cottage was an absolute delight from the moment we walked through the door. There’s an immediate sense of warmth and comfort, along with something special about the space that makes you feel right at home.The sunroom is a wonderful place to relax, with plenty of natural light and comfortable seating. The kitchen is thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need, and the two living rooms each have a grand yet wonderfully rustic feel.And then there’s the lake! The views are spectacular from just about everywhere. Whether you’re lounging by the water, sipping a glass of wine on the deck, or enjoying dinner inside, the scenery never disappoints. The view from the master bedroom is particularly amazing, almost giving you the feeling that you’re floating right on the water. Natural light pours through the windows, bringing the trees right into the room. I especially loved how beautifully wooded the property is, with those gorgeous pines everywhere.One of our favorite moments, for both my husband and me, was taking in the night sky. The stars were so bright and clear that it felt like having our very own planetarium; with the sound of the waves breaking in the background, it just felt special.The cottage is furnished with such care, and it has so much character and charm. Although this trip was just for the of us, it could easily be wonderful for a larger group. There's plenty of room and tucked-away places.We absolutely loved our stay.

This place was so great. The view alone was worth it, but we walked down along the waterfront got our feet wet, flipped rocks searching for creatures. The sunsets were gorgeous and we made it a point to take the time to enjoy them each night. It was abut cool when we visited the island (50s and 60s in June), but even so we loved the different beaches, the harbors, and just enjoying the nature (including the preserve). The house itself was also like a museum, featuring a lot of interesting artifacts. The whole family found so many interesting things to take pictures of. TLDR; This place was great.

What a beautiful spot!

This property is directly on the water and is such a peaceful and comfortable spot to stay. We enjoyed the views of the lake, lounging by the water to watch the sunset, and gathering around a fire in the firepit. The house was also a comfortable place to lounge and relax when we had a rainy day.

Wonderful honeymoon spot!

This was a beautiful place on Washington Island. With lakeside views, a firepit, comfortable furniture, supplied kitchen, etc, it was the perfect place for my husband and I to spend our honeymoon. The property manager made the experience so easy with little to no stress. Definitely will be returning!
