Great cabin by the lake! Lake access. Within 30 minutes of sleeping bear dunes, traverse city and a ton of beaches!
House was clean and had plenty of room. It was a very short walk to the lake as advertised. The lake dock and deck were very relaxing. We had a great stay and would stay here again

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay! Come back to visit again any time!
The property was as advertised. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. The couch was comfortable and easily fit all five of us while we enjoyed a movie. We were fortunate to see a baby bunny on the property also. It was a good location with easy travel to both Interlochen and Traverse City. I would stay here again!

The property was just as listed. We had most everything we needed. Check-in was easy. The kitchen is no the smaller side, but plenty of room at the dining table and on the patio.
The home was exactly as described, and we were really pleased with the cleanliness and condition of the home. The owner was very helpful. We enjoyed our time at the lake, and at the fire pit in the evenings. A very nice location for a family getaway!
