We had a lovely time at Ordel’s cottage. I had coffee every morning on the patio just enjoying the peaceful view. We had bonfires in the evening. Everything was just perfect. The cottage is very comfortable, welcoming and clean. I will certainly plan to visit again. Mackinaw City and Headlands Sky Park is only six miles away, we had a fantastic dinner at The White Buffalo in Mackinaw City. I highly recommend it. Also Clyde’s place for pizza and cold beer just down the road from the cottage.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin on the lake. It is cute, comfortable and equipped for our needs. The location is close to the Mackinac Island ferries and also close to both Lake Huron and Lake Michigan for coast drives. Highly recommended!

Very clean and well appointed with special touches throughout to help make your trip more enjoyable. Host was very responsive and resourceful. It was a bit smaller than I expected and neighbors were very close. But that isn't necessarily the hosts fault. I could have asked more questions when booking the stay. But overall, fantastic stay! And would recommend this to others. Very enjoyable cabin and vacation. The marina nearby, Chubbs, is very reasonable on boat rentals if interested.

Was exactly what we expected. Easy to find when using Apple Maps. Close to Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. We went for a week and it was a very peaceful week. Enjoyed just sitting out in screened porch and looking at the lake and watching the sunset. There is no AC, but the house didn't need it. With the cool breeze and fans, it was perfectly cool without it. . The host was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The house had everything we needed. There's a cute little general store a few minutes away. If you're looking for anything to do, Ordel gives you some ideas of some places you can go. But you should visit the UP and go to the Mystery Spot. It's a neat and fun place to go. We will definitely come back.!

THE BEDS!!! So comfortable! The house was clean and inviting.Suggestions: GPS couldn't locate road to the house. When communicating with future guests, let them know to look for the yellow house and sign for Carlton Cove. Then look for the blue houses.A notebook with all the info you sent online would be helpful too. ( All the links you sent expired the day after our arrival) Overall-a wonderful place. We highly recommend it.
