BRINGING A BOAT? Please let us know for valuable information! We can accommodate a boat up to 18 feet. We are on a two track along side the lake and on a dead end so it makes it difficult to trailer both your vehicle and boat attached on trailer down the road so any boat especially bigger than 18' should put the boat in the water first as you have to pass up the boat launch enroute to the cottage and both drivers of boat and vehicle w/trailer can meet at Sunrise which is only less than 2 blocks distance from launch so its really close otherwise you will have issues. Please be so kind and let host know you are bringing a boat so we can give you details to make your arrival seamless. There is one whole side of the dock for guest usage, no lift.

WINTER/SNOWMOBILE/CROSS COUNTRY SKI/SKI HILLS: Snowmobile DNR trails right behind cottage, Trail # 7 and Ski Hills nearby for the Winter Enthusiasts! All kinds of Cross-Country Ski Trails nearby. In this area, you will find the gently sloping terrain, heavily wooded forests and deep annual snowfall ideal for Nordic skiing. It is also not uncommon to see plentiful wildlife out on the trail. Limited parking, please ask!
Although our property is professionally plowed, we do STRONGLY recommend that you have a 4 wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle to access this property in winter months.

Great weekend stay on the lake

We had a great stay. The snow did not cooperate this year for us but we enjoyed beautiful sunrises with our morning coffee. The cottage is clean, cozy and well appointed. We also enjoyed several great dinners out in the area. Thank you for sharing a great spot with us!

The house is small, but clean and has everything a small family needs to be comfortable.

The house is charming. It's clean and has just about everything a small family needs to be comfortable for a week's vacation. The views are lovely and the water is refreshing. We were delighted with Sunrise Sensation; our only wish would be to stay longer!

Perfect Get Away

Cabin is wonderful, with all the amenities from home. You couldn’t ask for a better view, or more centralized location to all your favorite Northern sights and towns. Great trail system to walk every morning, and a perfect little hot tub to make turning in about as comfortable as it gets! This was our second visit, and we will return in the future.

Great location! Super clean and everything you need!

Booked very last minute and Dorene was very accommodating. My 3 kids and I had a blast in the late winter snow and loved having the hot tub right on the water to come back to. The master bedroom has great views of the lake and I'll definitely be looking to book again in warmer weather to enjoy the lake.

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The views are amazing and the water is steps away from the cottage. We used the hot tub every day and swam in the lake. The cottage is pet friendly. Our dog loved getting in the water and napping on the deck. We rented a tri-toon and explored the waterway. The house is well stocked with everything you need. The bed was very comfortable and hearing the waves at night made sleeping even better. The host is quick to respond to messages. Thanks for letting us stay. We will be back!!

We love this place. Great location on the lake. It is very peaceful. You are steps away from water. The house is clean, organized and comfortable. Communication with the Owner, Dorene is excellent. We swam & kayaked every day. We went to Mackinac Island one day and we were back to the house by early afternoon and in the lake. The hot tub on the deck overlooking the lake is a bonus. We will be back next summer.

Perfect Paradise

I am not sure i could find a more perfect paradise. The views are spectacular! We spent a lot of time on the deck watching the loons, ducks, geese, chipmonks, boats, etc. It is impossible to sit out there and not relax. Absolute heaven. The cottage is exactly as described. Check in was very easy, cottage was immaculate when we got there. The kayaks were so much fun. Loved the hot tub! You cant go wrong with this one! We will be back!

Great place to visit for New Year

This is a lovely place to visit. Very clean and cosy. My partner and I had wonderful 3 nights here over New Year. The cabin is close to grocery store and local bar. The snowmobile trail right outside front door and it did manage to snow whilst we were there allowing us to snowmobile for a few hours before we left. Loved the hot tub on the deck made a perfect New Year's Eve. The owner Dorene very helpful and answered all my queries and questions even tho if different country. No problems booking from different country either. We will hopefully be back next New Year.
