Great relaxing weekend

We had a wonderful time at this house. My husband and daughter enjoyed fishing off the pier, as well as, being able to sit out by fire late at night catching up on old times. We really enjoyed it.!!!

Breathtaking views

The property location is absolutely breathtaking both morning and night. The views from the porch, dock and fire pit were impossible to beat. We spent the majority of our time outside as it was absolutely tranquil.

Great lakefront cabin

We rented cabin for a month. This owner found out we were bringing our jet ski and so he procured a jet ski lift for us and installed it on his beach. Can not say enough about the lake, the dock and the property overall. Very nice up north MI cabin on a lake. PRIVATE All sports lake with very little traffic.

Family time on Potter Lake

The lake was beautiful with swans and herons, its wasn't crowded at all, great for kayaking and using paddle boat, fishing was very good for the kids. The cabin had plenty of room. The down side was that the cabin wasn't cleaned. We spent a morning cleaning. We did address the issue with the owner at our departure; he was apologetic and would address the issue.

A little oasis

It's an older property, but perfect for a weekend getaway. We came in for a wedding and it was nice to relax after the festivities. The kids enjoyed the kayaks in the evening. The fire pit is perfect and the host is very communicative. All's you have to is ask and he will answer your questions. Lots of taxidermy, made me smile.

Peaceful getaway!

If you are looking for a peaceful getaway, this is it. The cabin is fun with all the animals. The lake is small, but great for fishing, kayaking and a SUP! The sunsets are beautiful. We spent most of our time outside. The sand by the lake is a great touch and nice at night to sit by the fire pit and have your toes in the sand!!! Roger was great and even stopped by with some fire wood!

Unbelievable Fun

The taxidermy animals give the whole place a fun vibe, you can’t stop giggling and talking about them. It’s like getting to camp out with bears! My kids got a complete kick out of the animals. Roger had great communication with us and is very friendly. The rooms and beds are comfortable. I cooked meals on the grill and in the kitchen. We brought a small boat and was able to launch it two driveways away. Very limited parking if you have boat trailer and car, but luckily we just fit perfect. The lake is so quiet, I didn’t have to worry about just letting my kids go out for a long kayak ride. I would return for sure.

Nice Place on the Lake

Totally functional property. It is what you would expect a typical lake/hunting cottage would be. Nothing fancy. A lot of outdated items (like the TV). Lots of cool taxidermy. The wifi had no internet, but we had good cellular coverage on our phones so we did not bother trying to contact the host for resolution. The hard water is rusting out the faucets and shower head which could be replaced for a cheap upgrade. It is also hard to find places to plug your devices in at various places around the house. Maybe a few power strips would help. Also, while we only had one car, if there is a group staying with two cars... good luck finding another spot. I am giving this place 5 stars overall because it suiting our needs and I would stay there again.

Another great stay!

We have rented this place quite a few times and it has never been a disappointment! The view is beautiful, the fishing is awesome, and the way the yard is set up really lends itself to a nice barbecue, fire , playing on the "beach" (grandkids) or just relaxing.. we will definitely be back!

Relaxing Stay

In the area to attend a funeral and found this to be the perfect place to relax after each days events. Very quiet lake even on the Saturday we were there. Fished off the dock for a couple hours and released a couple bass and a few decent panfish. Property was listed accurately. Rustic fishing/hunting cottage feel. No surprises and host was very responsive to texts. No a/c or WiFi was available but that wasn't an issue for us, but might be for some. Beds leaned towards the firmer side.

Peaceful

We had a wonderful time at this cottage. The lake is beautiful, not a very big lake but it was great for fishing, kayaking and paddle boating. The neighbors were friendly. They had everything you would need to stay for a long weekend or longer. Communication with the owner was very easy and he answered any questions in a tiny manner. The owners son was very helpful too.
