We had very good communication with the hostess and she was always very helpful. The property probably is better for summer since it has accessibility to the lake.

We LOVED staying here! This property is clean, and thoughtfully designed for a wonderful family stay. We had no issues finding things needed for cooking large family meals. Diana is an amazing host who checked in on us, and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed to have an amazing lake vacation. Our kids loved swimming off the dock and fully utilizing the Lilypad that Diana so generously let us use. There is a high chair and a playpen available making this an awesome house for families with littles. Honestly, would love to come back next year!!! 10/10!!!!

Great communication from the host. There was a tornado siren/warning while we were there and someone popped by to ensure we knew what to do in case of emergency. Beautiful location right on the lake where we watched the geese, and the ice melt away! Perfect if visiting Hillsdale College - just a bit outside town, great privacy.

Great Lake house with so many water toys!

We had a great time, the cabin was right on the water as promised and the lake was beautiful. There were so many water toys for all of us including a kayak, canoe, huge floating mats and more. Diana is a wonderful host and we definitely recommend her and her charming lake house!

Amazing Lake House!!

Everything about our stay was absolutely wonderful! Diana was a fantastic host who was super quick at communicating with us and very helpful! The lake house was in a lovely and peaceful location. There was so much provided for us to use, which meant our whole family thoroughly enjoyed our time on the lake. The house itself was extremely clean and very well stocked, it truly had everything we needed for our stay! It's a beautiful and quiet spot that is perfect for relaxing or playing on the lake. We never wanted to leave and hope to stay longer next year!

Our family of 5 (and our dog) had a wonderful time at this lake house in Osseo, MI. We fished, swam, kayaked, grilled, played yard games, roasted marshmallows by the bon fire, and soaked up the beautiful view of the lake. This is a fabulous property. The home was clean, well maintained, and as described… very nice kitchen and bathrooms. The extra space in the converted garage with couches, TV, and games was much appreciated. The shed was stocked with yard games, floats (including large “lily pad” float, fishing poles, chairs, etc. The location and view of the lake can’t be beat. Our family vacation in this home was relaxing and fun. We definitely recommend this rental.

This was our 2nd stay at this wonderful lake house! Our 2 week stay did not disappoint at all! You can't beat the beautiful view, the quiet surroundings and the thrill of spotting the local wildlife that also calls the lake home (like cute little river otters and so many turtles!). Communication between us and Diana was always friendly, easy, and quick! We only encountered one issue with coffee machines and it was resolved in minutes! You can tell she cares about her guests and maximizing their comfort! Our family of 3 kids (almost all teens) and 2 parents all found pleasant ways to enjoy our time. There were so many new additions from last year too! We definitely enjoyed the new arcade game in the garage and loved ping pong too! There was an additional kayak provided so we were able to all enjoy kayaking together and so many lake and outside toys to use, the ultimate in all things entertainment! We enjoyed the bonus garage room rec room so much and spent a lot of time out there with the fresh air and netting up. Having so many sleeping options and spaces to spread out was lovely too. We had all we needed in the kitchen to cook many meals, a beautiful new fire pit next to the water to enjoy s’mores in the evening, and plenty of bedding and towels.This is the perfect location to play on the lake, play games with the family, enjoy the peacefulness, make some wonderful memories, and forget the busyness of life. It's a little bit of paradise on the water!

We love our time at the lake and home in Osseo! The boys love going down to the lake and it is the perfect home to relax and just be on the lake. It has your basic needs and fit our family of 8 perfectly.
