Peaceful Girls Week

This cabin was perfect for our Girls Week. The cabin is well stocked with kitchen supplies, spices, plates, silverware and glasses. There are plenty of towels in the bathroom and the beds were very comfortable. The cabin was very clean upon arrival. There are plenty of large door walls and windows and, with the use of the box fans, we were comfortable despite the lack of AC. The view of the lake is awesome and there were floats and kayaks for use. We rented a pontoon from Mel's resort across the lake and spent one afternoon touring around the lake. The lake is so peaceful and we saw plenty of fish. The shed had plenty of firewood and there is a nice firepit. The cabin is close enough to Ludington, Manistee, and Lake Michigan for extra activities. I highly recommend this place for a family, friends, or girls retreat.

Great Summer Retreat!

Loved the cabin! My 4-year-old loved playing in the water. The swim area is perfect for little ones. It is shallow enough to give them a fun area to wade. There is also a "seaweed wall" where my 4-year-old did not want to go any further. The dock provided a nice area for my husband to teach her how to fish. The house itself is gorgeous and clean. The owners are quick to respond. I would reccommend it!

Loved this place.

Loved this place! Had a few minor problems, but the owner went above and beyond to make everything right. Would highly recommend this place to stay for anyone that wanted a relatively close access to the great lakes and have close access to a lake.

Perfect in every way!!!

Generous size cottage & spacious deck, both sun & shaded areas. With plenty of sliding glass doorwalls for gorgeous views of the lake. Lots of storm windows to open for air circulation. Plus plenty of box fans to cool it down. Well stocked with nice cookware, utensils for all uses, more then enough dishware & drinkware. Tons of bath & kitchenTowels! The biggest bonus was having ALL the small incidentals; all soaps, paper products. It was wonderful to have all of these items. Especially the fresh drinking water. (***Ask before you pack your own.) Hope to return to this beautiful place next summer as well. Thanks for a memorable stay!
