My family had a great time. Check in was easy. The house was comfortable and had plenty of room for two adults and four teens. The beach is nice and sandy and just steps from the back deck. Got plenty of use from the grill and kayaks too. Great place to stay if you’re looking for a relaxing beach vacation.

The Cottage was perfect in so many ways for my mom, my pre-teen kids, and me. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The property was welcoming, spotless, and beautifully maintained. It was spacious and thoughtfully furnished—no feeling of being crammed in with too much furniture.The kitchen had everything we needed for meals inside or out, and it was wonderful being able to grill while everyone hung out on the deck. Bedrooms were roomy with very comfortable beds.The kids loved playing catch on the sandy beach and running far out on the sandbar. It’s especially great for younger children since the water stays shallow for a while, giving parents peace of mind. Our pre-teens thought it was awesome to go out far enough to jump off the swim raft.We enjoyed plenty of space to play in the grassy yard and had the best evenings by the fire. Truly, this place does not disappoint.And as for Suki—what a wonderful host! She was an absolute pleasure to rent from. All I can say is The Cottage and its owner deserve a 20 out of 10. Stop searching and just BOOK IT!

About the host
Hosted by Susanne Davis
Hi, I’m Suki! I’m a proud grandma of five, a lifelong traveler, and an avid gardener who finds joy in life’s simple pleasures. This cottage is especially close to my heart—it’s been in our family for 60+ years, and I spent every summer of my childhood here on Sand Lake, swimming, water skiing, sailing, catching fireflies, and making memories that still make me smile.
It’s a true honor to now share this special place with guests. Whether you’re here for quiet mornings on the beach, adventures around Tawas, or cozy evenings by the fire, I hope you’ll feel the same warmth and peace that has made this cottage a treasured part of my life.
Welcome to our home-away-from-home—I’m so glad you’re here.
