About this property

Couples Retreat on the River.

Our cozy, comfortable cottage is for rent on the Sauble river in Lake County for the right individuals. It's the ideal place for someone that wants truly to experience Pure Michigan at its best!! Very secluded area,but offers some many cool things to do! Lakes and rivers are abundant in all directions! With Kayaks available at cottage.Ludington, Manistee, Traverse City, are all within reach also! This place is absolutely immaculate! We would love to keep it that way. Look at the pictures in detail! It is right on the river so summer months the bugs can be hungry! Also the stairs to the loft are somewhat narrow. If interested please contact us! Thanks. We feel it is most enjoyable as a couples retreat. We have a 3 night minimum and our maximum night stay is 5 nights. We can also do a 2 night stay but there will be a $50 up charge. Thank you. We do allow one small dog (25-30 pounds ) and there is a $75 pet fee.

Amazing

The cabin was spotless when we arrived, and there was a gift left for us on the counter! Everything about the cabin felt very welcoming. Watching the animals, soaking our feet in the river, and reading were some of our favorite activities. It's a very special place! Thank you Bernice and Jason, you were perfect hosts and the cabin was exactly what we wanted for our vacation.

A charming, comfortable, beautifully decorated cabin on the river. Very private and peaceful. Owners were wonderful to work with. If you need to get away from it all for a bit, you can't go wrong here! Very highly recommended.
