About this property

Robin's Nest, a home located in the quaint Village of Lake Ann Michigan

The Robin's Nest is a newly remodeled home built in the 1900s located on a large corner lot in the Village of Lake Ann. Two sides of the property are bordered by mature trees providing privacy. The main level amenities include the living and dining areas, kitchen, laundry, full bath and one bedroom with a queen bed. The upper level consists of three rooms separated by the stairway and a small hallway and includes one bedroom with one queen and two twin beds, a reading/game nook with chairs, a desk and various books and games for guests to enjoy as well as a den with a couch, papasan chair, rocking chair and TV/DVD player and assortment of DVDs. The covered front porch provides views of village activity from the three patio chairs and table. A larger covered back porch allows guest privacy while enjoying coffee or dinner on the patio dining table and chairs (seats 6). A Weber gas grill is also located on the back porch. Just a few steps from the back porch is a fire pit with 6 additional patio chairs for guests to enjoy a fire. The Robins' Nest has a wonderful lawn and landscaping with irrigation and a concrete driveway.

Wonderful gem

The house was gorgeous - very clean, nicely decorated, and it had everything we could possibly need. We loved the little village, which was close to Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and other attractions we wanted to visit. The communication with the host was wonderful. We would definitely like to come back.

Friend’s Weekend

This place was excellent for our weekend getaway. The house was clean and well stocked. Lake Ann Brewery and a nice little restaurant/deli are right across the street, which we found perfect! We could sit on our own back porch and listen to the live music, or walk across the street and join crowd. The only suggestion I would have for the property would be to put up some privacy fencing off the back corner of the house to block the constant flow of traffic coming up to the stop sign facing the house- it was a little bothersome while trying to enjoy the back deck.

Stay in Lake Ann

The Robin’s Nest was the perfect home away from home for our family. The home is centrally located to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, and many other beautiful areas to explore in Michigan. The location was also ideal for enjoying the conveniences of Lake Ann. The walking distance to the coffee shop, Lake Ann Brewing, Corner Cup, park and even the lake was second to none! The back porch was a nice retreat at the end of a long day. The kiddos thoroughly enjoyed the home’s upstairs featuring their own bunk room, play area and reading nook. The owners take pride in their home, including the lovely flowers and were gracious with offering any needed help. The arrival and departure procedures were clear and easy to follow. We hope to be back soon!

The house and location were really peaceful, unique and overall a joy. We loved the unique upstairs spaces and overall feel of the place. We also loved being able to walk to coffee in the morning and dinner at the brewery/restaurant at night. It provided a landing spot for a very enjoyable fall weekend!!

Our stay at The Robin's Nest was phenomenal! It is located very near our daughter's home in Lake Ann providing great convenience for visiting with them. We loved the little village of Lake Ann (park for the kids to play at, grocery store, ice cream shop, and brewery). Our son and 2 small grandchildren really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit one evening. The house itself was clean, well outfitted with everything needed, and comfortable. The exterior flowers and back patio were wonderful. Our host, Jennie, was a friendly and happy person whom we enjoyed meeting. We hope to come back again some time!

We had an amazing stay at the Robin's Nest! The house was clean and had everything our family needed. Very family friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The location is great! It's situated next to a great microbrew with live music and great food. The cute town has everything you need including a park, coffee shop, ice cream shop, and general store.

We Loved this Place!

This house was cozy but had plenty of space for our family of six. The kids loved playing in the yard and we loved enjoying the live music from the brewery next door in the evenings. The town is super cute and walkable - we enjoyed the coffee shop, ice cream shop, grocery store and park just around the corner. My kids are already begging to come back to this house next year!

Great place!

We booked the Robin's Nest for our mini family summer vacation. It was perfect. I appreciated the comfortable bed and the cleanliness of the property. The location was also very nice, with it being a short walk to a coffee shop and restaurant. Communication with the owner was super easy and they were super accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cute, comfortable home in a cute tiny town!

We loved our stay here! The house is very comfortable with everything we needed (and more) for a week long visit. We loved the covered back patio and hot tub for nights in and definitely utilized the washer and dryer. There was more than enough space for everyone, and the beds are comfortable! The owners thought of everything. The town of Lake Ann might be very tiny but has a delicious restaurant with carry out options, one of the best breweries we've ever visited with live music every evening, a yummy ice cream shop, a cute coffee shop, and a very well stocked general store with groceries all within a very short walk from the home along with a well maintained park and playground for kids of all ages. There is also a public beach with swimming area less than a quarter mile from the home that anyone can use! Our family definitely recommends this house and town for your Michigan stay!

Excellent return to the Nest

This was our 2nd trip to the Robin's Nest and Lake Ann in 3 years and it did not disappoint again! First, Jennie and Matt are amazing hosts. Excellent communication from booking until after check out. Everything you need and more if you just ask. Lake Ann is amazing area both for the people and its proximity to everything in the NW Lower Peninsula. Long days at the lake, sight seeing, and travelling are rewarded with a home base stay at the Robin's Nest. And nothing beats that first pint of the day at Lake Ann Brewing! Thank you again for everything and look forward to our next summer booking!

We chose the Robin’s Nest because it was close to everything we wanted to do during our Michigan trip. It may just be my favorite short-term rental stay ever. Extremely clean. Friendly & helpful host. Beautiful location. Will definitely be returning.

Great place for adults and kids

We came to stay for a week-long July 4th trip. The house was even better than the pictures- so cozy and inviting. The location is unbeatable, with a brewery right behind the house (you can see it from the main bedroom) as well as an ice cream shop, coffee shop, and playground steps away. We had a great time exploring the village of Lake Ann, the Traverse City area, and Sleeping Bear Dunes. There were also plenty of kids games and books for our toddler to keep her occupied during our downtime.
