Notes
- Big Red on Comstock Lake is a place to get away and have fun with your friends and family. My lake home is surrounded by state and county land, which is excellent for 4 wheeling, hiking or just to relax and enjoy the peacefulness. If you are into fishing, Comstock Lake is stocked with walleye, northern, crappies, perch. Comstock Lake does have a public boat launch located on the north side of lake if you decide to bring your own boat.

Fantastic getaway
Had an awesome time with our large family - 4 adults, 4 kids, 2 dogs at Big Red! The cabin was well kept, the yard was sprawling and the pontoon was fun. Swimming in the lake takes a bit getting used to given the dark water but enjoyable (the dogs loved it!). Mandy was easy to contact and extremely responsive (thank you!). Only suggestion - as the main level does heat up on the warmer days, perhaps consider a larger air conditioner or a wall unit in the upper level. Would visit again.
Another great year
This is the second year in a row we have rented Big Red and have had another great year. This year we had 14 people for a full week, but it was great. There is so much space at this cabin that it never felt cramped (or like 14 people were there), even on the rainy days. Big Red provides everything we could have needed, including toiletries, towels and band-aids! We also rented the pontoon and had a great time swimming on the lake and doing sunset cruises. Communication with the owners was great and responses were always timely. We will definitely be back again next year.
Thank you very much for the great review and feedback! We are happy that Big Red was large enough for your group. We are also very pleased to hear you'll be returning next year! Enjoy the rest of the Summer.
Family Vacation
Best house we've rented so far as far as dealing with the owner and amenities. Was very well stocked and worked perfect for our family, big yard, nice beach and pontoon was a nice added bonus.
Thank you so much for the kind review! We are happy Big Red was accommodating for your family. Enjoy the rest of your Summer!
Calm getaway
This is a nice property, and my group was there for the first time last summer (2018). This season, it was noticeable the property owners made some improvements. A water treatment system has been added, taking the sulfur smell out of the water. One of the bathrooms has been completely redone, and is very welcoming. It is important that renters are aware the property is not near gas stations. The owner is very good letting renters know where the nearest places are. Be sure to bring extra coolers and ice to get by if you don't want to find yourself driving a lot. In fact, a simple extra fridge/freezer would be fantastic in the very large garage on the property. There are miles of gravel road to reach the property, if that is a deal breaker. Note that anti dust has been added to the road, and that was much nicer this year when cars passed by. The neighbor dogs visit quite often. They are friendly, but know that they will likely visit. Many is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns. There is a lot of space to spread out. We were a group of 14, and found many spaces to play games, eat, chat, or just quietly read. We recommend this place for some true time away.
Thank you very much for the great review and detailed feedback. We always welcome new ideas like an additional fridge/freezer for the garage. We will definitely look into that.. This Summer has included some road construction to deal with. Fortunately, our road will be reopened in the Fall. We will then have quicker access to our town gas station and restaurant! :) Thanks again for staying at Big Red. We hope to have you back for a third time!
Great family getaway
We've been coming to Big Red for 4-5 days each summer for the past three years. There's plenty of space inside and out for large groups. The house is well stocked with everything you might need and being able to rent the pontoon boat is a nice extra.
Thank you so much for another great review! We love having you guys at Big Red and hope you all return next year. Enjoy the rest of the Summer!

Why Amanda Berg chose Cotton
My husband and I love the outdoors. When we were looking for our first home, all we wanted was a lake home. This home showed up on our search site and it checked every box that we were looking for, and then some!: After we bought our home, the first night we stayed there, we saw the most beautiful sunset we had ever seen! Since then, we've enjoyed a different sunset every night. This is a very special place to us and we truly hope you enjoy what all Big Red on Comstock has to offer!
