We had a great stay at the cabin! The cabin was very clean and check-in was easy. Everything we needed was already there which was great. The beach access was wonderful. The canoe was fun to use but the dock does need to repaired as it is unsafe to walk across with the tilting and eroding boards. Overall we had a great time and would stay here again!

Check in was easy, very easy to miss access road to cabin, drove by it before we saw the small sign pointing the path. Cabin is cozy, A/C unit in only 1 BR, weather was good so no problem there. Nice Fire Pit outside.

This is an exceptional property and we can’t recommend it highly enough. The cabin was exactly what we hoped for and we’ll have unforgettable memories from our time here. Clean, well appointed, and perfectly located. Sunset swims and cozy fires every night. We are grateful to Charlie for hosting us.

The cabin was cozy. Everything we needed for a great stay was provided! We loved the Lake Michigan beach access! Our dog enjoyed her daily swims! Don’t attempt the 2000 piece puzzle with the collage of kids and adults- you’ll never finish it!!

Cozy location within walking distance of the Giant Sequoia at Lake Bluff Arboretum and the beach. Charlie was very responsive to any questions we had. Easy drive to downtown which is full of eclectic shops and tasty eateries. We’ll definitely try to come again.

Nina was very pleasant to deal with. Unfortunately I didn’t get to meet her in person. I do hope to meet her at her next stay at the cabin.

Everything was great. The private beach space was an easy short walk away. It's a nice and fairly private location. You can hear some traffic but that comes with being so close to Lake MI. The water was crystal clear and it was nice to watch the sunset from the beach.

It’s a very peaceful setting and mostly very clean, just a cobweb or two as you might expect from a cabin in the woods. Lots of thoughtful touches; plenty of clean bath towels, toiletries, kitchen dishes and utensils. Even a freezer with several frosted mugs ready to go! Lake Bar had a low water level and a lot of vegetation so getting through the neck to the main body was a challenge; may need to get out and pull boat through, but great to have a private deck, canoe, and kayaks. DVD and VHS player, surround sound, and cable channels- tv was easy to work. We enjoyed the nostalgia of watching a VHS too! Our only issue was the fridge is not working properly and was not getting cold enough, we ended up keeping our perishables in our cooler with ice. Also, we weren’t aware there was no AC- there are several fans and a window ac unit in the bedroom which is right above the head of the bed and clicks on every few minutes loudly. We would go back but probably not during the Summer as it could I get uncomfortable quickly, even by the lake. Overall a good stay!

Cozy rustic cabin in a convenient location.

Our host was very friendly at check in and check out. We fell in love with Duncan, the owner's dog who visited us nightly. This property is a birder's paradise.
