We loved our time at Big Star lake at the Kramer Cottage! We were smitten with the beautiful renovations and location on the lake. The cottage had all the amenities you could possibly need. The hosts were very friendly and easy to communicate with as well!

This is our 2nd stay at the property. First was in the summer and now in the Fall. The place is comfortable and has everything we needed. Fall is different at the lake but we loved the views and firepit. We will be back.

Perfect family vacation

The cottage is beautiful, clean, well stocked and contained everything we needed for the week. The space worked great for grandparents, parents, toddler and baby. The lake is peaceful, shallow and kid friendly, and the sandy beach provided hours of entertainment. We made good use of the beach toys, kayaks and paddle board. A wonderful time was had by all!

Such a nice property with everything you needed to enjoy the weekend! The lake and beach were right out the back door. Everything provided for you. The little touches were noticeable and very nice. Thank you!

Beautiful Renovated Cottage on Big Star Lake

Had a great time with our 3 girls at this recently renovated cottage. Place was very well appointed with everything you could need for a week of lake life. The view of the lake was beautiful with frontage that was blocked on one side for additional privacy. Also included great set of activities including board games, cornhole, kayaks and a SUP. New A/C, great internet, new bathrooms, kitchen, the works! Three bedrooms, including one with two bunk beds that our twin girls loved sleeping on the top bunks and talking and laughing until all hours of the AM.
