We felt lucky to have found this property so close to our home, because we were having part of our family coming in from Grand Rapids for a get together and don't have the room for them (2 adults, 3 kids). The house is easy to find & is wonderfully kept. The only downside is - not good swimming off the dock there.

We're so glad this property was the perfect fit for hosting your family's get-together from Grand Rapids! It's wonderful to hear you found the house easy to find and well kept. We are planning to add a ladder to the dock to make it easy to get in the water in the spring. Thanks for sharing your experience! Thank you for staying with us.

This was part of a 20th Anniversary trip around Michigan. This property sits on a pretty lake inlet. We enjoyed the dock and watching boats go by. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We appreciated the simple checkout instructions of only having us gather linens and empty trash. We have stayed in others that had a 10 item check out list, so thank you!

Lake Cottage Visit

Cute cottage on the lake! We enjoyed used the paddle boat, coffee on the deck, and the comfy recliners! Everything was just as described in the listing. Host communication was great and very responsive. Look forward to staying again!

Quaint, Clean, Comfortable, Convenient!

My two sisters and I came to Colon to serve as judges at the 2025 MAGIC CITY GRILL FEST (in June) and were thrilled to find a place that offered us convenience, just a few stairs to climb (we're all over 60), cleanliness, airy comfort, decent beds and linens, a cute coffee bar that included a nice selection of K-cups, and a beautiful view of the boat channel to relax in front of on the spacious comfy-seated deck. We also loved that there were ceiling fans in every room, amazing A/C (it was in the high 90s during our stay), live plants that added a perky look to the ambiance, fluffy towels, clean carpet-free flooring, comfy living room chairs, all situated in an older neighborhood with minimal outside noises.We LOVED the gift basket of goodies, too. Ours featured super fancy cookies, snacks, a mini cake, and a bottle of Rose wine-delightful! We had a wonderful stay!
Enjoying the channel view from inside the small front porch.
