Weekend Getaway

Very lovely home. Well furnished. Very clean. You can see the sunrise from the front porch. Very short walk to the beach little shared beach. Very nice neighbors. Very attentive host. My only complaint is that the cleaning person uses too much air freshener scent; it's very strong and would harass a person with allergies or sensitivity to smells.

Great weekend getaway

Spent a lot of time in Lexington as a kid, and have enjoyed taking my kids there now. Place was exactly what we needed - good location, comfortable for a family of 4. Will definitely stay again.

Best cottage rental

We have been renting cottages in the Lexington area since 1989 and this was by far the nicest one we have stayed in. The owner was helpful and kind and the home was well cared for and stocked with all of the essentials. Neighborhood was quiet and location and view of the water was perfect. Highly reccommend!

Our stay

The house was very nice., definetly the nicest home on the street. Small but very clean and had everything you need. The beds were very comfortable. On the two rainy days we had there were plenty of board games. Downtown Lexington was only 5 minutes away. The one drawback was the beach which was part of the association which we didn't know until we got the lease information. It was very rocky, no fault of the owners. My husband and I borrowed a rake from the neighbors and spent hours removing rocks to make it nice.

Clean and tidy home, with most items we needed to get started.

First impression of beach, all neighbors (over 12 homes) shared beach and it was crowed. As days rolled on into a week, we were able to have more isolated time on beach/lake access. Add mentioned and only showed three homes to share beach. We had a relaxing time just watching the boats, freighters, etc on Lake Huron. No sheets available for pull out bed in couch and TV internet, played one minute then froze for five making it difficult to watch movies at night. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and hopefully met his expectations of leaving the home in a clean fashion. Thank you for allowing us the visit. Would recommend to others. One last mention the town of Lexington closed down on Tuesdays for religious reason, which is a new one for us. Other sites like in Croswell - flea market and Western town were non-existent but that was the fault of the businesses not updating the internet sites they advertise in the 15 hot spots to visit.

Cozy and clean with a great view

The cottage was immaculate and even better in person than in the photos. There was a beautiful view of Lake Huron from the deck and a gently sloped walk down the nearby small bluff led to the crystal clear waters of the lake. We enjoyed rock hunting and sitting on the beach reading, though there were some pesky flies. The owner contacted us before and during our visit to ask if we had any questions, and to make sure we had what we needed. There was a delightful breakfast place, Bush's, very close. The neighbors were friendly and introduced us to their cat, Scooter. All in all it was a wonderful getaway, just an hour and a half from our home. Thank you David!

The Beautiful cottage and Breathtaking view of the lake!!

The renter was very helpful and thorough. The house was very clean and beautiful. The view from their deck was breathtakingly beautiful! The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back in the future.

The house was the best part

The house was very nice. It had everything we needed and we basically stayed here the entire vacation. The owner is very nice and communicates extremely well. The view of the lake was obstructed by a commercial boon truck that had residue on it from winter. The neighbor across the road was rebuilding his home and the hammering was constant every morning. . The lake opens to a sandbar that is great for swimming and the local neighbors who share the beach seem reluctant, yet friendly to engage. I would hate for my; less than stellar, outlook on Lexington as a hot vacation spot to discredit the beauty and functionality of this home. The owner owns the nicest house on the block. I probably won't stay again, but I will recommend it if you are staying in the area. It's a true gem.

Beautiful September Retreat

We so enjoyed the stunning view of Lake Huron. Sitting on the deck, looking at the water and watching the freighters was exactly what we wanted to do to escape the Florida heat. The furniture and bedding were comfortable and kitchen well equipped.

Whispering Willows

Excellent vacation! Cottage was the perfect location for R&R and beach time. It provided all the comforts of home and as a super bonus it’s just a hop and a skip from super-cute downtown Lexington.

Clean and Comfortable Cottage

My sisters and I had a wonderful stay at Whispering Willows! The cottage is comfortable and very clean. What a great view of the water from the living area! The beach is so close and down a nicely stepped walkway. I enjoyed relaxing on the wooden swings overlooking the lake from above and on the beach. The owners were excellent to work with and available for questions. The rental agreement had very detailed information on it which was quite helpful. We would definitely love to rent Whispering Willows again!

Was everything we'd hoped for and more!

Just returned from a week-long stay and we couldn't have been more pleased! The property was as advertised and then some! It was very clean, quiet, the decor was very nice, the home was outfitted with everything you could ever need and the owners were very pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend this property (as I already have to a few friends and family) and will be booking a stay for next summer. Thank you so much for opening your home to us and providing a wonderful place to make some great memories!

Lovely property with a beautiful view of the lake.

The cottage was exactly what we were hoping for! It was clean and decorated in a comfortable, welcoming way. It was exactly as pictured. The outside deck was spacious, and from it we had a beautiful view and close walk to the lake. The sunrises were magnificent! The owner was so pleasant to work with and available for any questions. We had a wonderful time and will definitely rent it again.

This lake house was fabulous with wonderful views of Lake Huron . The house was spotless , clean , roomy and had everything we needed .

Thanks for sharing this property with all of us we will be back:)
