MARY was great about communicating and was a very kind host. The location was great and wished we could have been there longer. Will definitely rent this location again in the future.
The property was clean, nicely decorated and had all we could of asked for. The rock hunting and kayaking werespectacular and visted with a momma loon and her baby. Close to Traverse City dining and shoping.Mary and Larry were perfect hosts.
The cottage was amazing! Cute, clean and made us feel right at home! The hostess, Mary was wonderful! Only had one question and it was answered within minutes! This place was spot on with the write up and the pictures! Will be back again!!
We had a very nice stay on our one week vacation at this cute little house. The house had everything you needed. It was close to the beach and set up really nice for kids. We really liked it and we were very happy with everything.
Had a wonderful stay at the cottage, first of all Mary was a great host, great communication! The cottage was super charming and very clean. We appreciated the bottle of wine and the grandkids loved the fudge! We used the gift card at Moomers Homemade Ice Cream, which was delicious. Enjoyed the beach and evenings at the fire pit. Definitely will be coming back.
The hosts were very hospitable and accommodating for my family and I. It's a great cottage, close enough to Traverse City but far enough away and right near the lake. We were very happy with our stay here
We had a great stay. Property was as pictured and well stocked. The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable. Close proximity to downtown Traverse City as well as neighboring towns. Mary and Larry were great hosts and we were very surprised and greatful for the welcoming gifts that were waiting for us upon arrival. The bottle of wine, dried berries and gift card was such a nice touch. There also were 2 light sticks which came in very handy on our night hike. I would definitely recommend this property. Thank you Mary and Larry for opening your home to us and making our experience flawless.
Great cottage, comfortable and clean, and just a few houses down from Silver Lake. Our friends were in the cottage next door so very convenient for us to visit and get together. Hosts were great. Had a hiccup with internet that was resolved. TV was basic local channels or Prime, pretty limited. But I’m told that was being resolved. Would definitely stay here again!

Why they chose this property
Have you ever wanted to go back to that time when you were a kid and relive an awesome memory? This cottage brings back the fond memories of my grandmothers summer cottage at a lake near Ann Arbor, MI. I have the BEST summer memories of lazy days and fun with my family away from the city (Detroit). This cottage brings those memories back to life for me. I'm hoping that you and your family/friends can create some of those same memories while staying with us!
