🐾Dog Friendly🐾
We welcome up to two dogs of any size with no additional charge. We kindly request that dogs be licensed in your home county and utd on all vaccines. Coyote sightings are not an every day occurrence but nor are they uncommon, so for the safety of your pets and courtesy to the neighbors, dogs must be on a leash or tie out at all times while outside, and not left unattended.

🐾We kindly request that dogs be crated if left alone in the cottage. Dog waste should be picked up promptly and disposed of either in bags in the outside trash receptacle or emptied into the compost bin.

🐾We have lots of extra ‘dog towels’ for drying them off after a romp in the lake, but if they sleep in bed with you or like to nap on the couch, please bring an appropriate sheet or blanket to protect the bedding and upholstery.

**There are two outdoor Security cameras to monitor shed and road access.

Long Lake is a 357 acre all sports lake.
There’s a large, easily accessible boat launch on the south side of the lake next to Long Lake Party Store.

The cottage and it’s lakefront are close to ‘the cove’ a no wake area of the lake protected from the wind and usual ebb & flow from motor craft and is abundant with wildlife. Excellent for fishing.

The area:
Greenville is a 15-20 minute drive and Belding, home to Gus Macker, is about a 10 minute drive. Both towns have grocery stores, antique and resale shops, restaurants, bars, breweries and coffee shops.

Amazing stay. Meagan was an excellent host and went above and beyond expectations. Perfect little get away place. Quiet area and relaxing. The home was fully stocked with anything you could possibly need. So if you forgot something don't worry it's most likely there. The cabin was extremely clean. We traveled with pets and the house had plenty of items to make it pet friendly.

Meagan is a consummate host! We stayed with our 3 children and 1 dog for a week in late October. We had a wonderful stay. Meagan has thought of every detail to make her guests feel at home at her lake cottage, including toys/games for kids and treats for the dog. We highly recommend this place for small families traveling with pets.

Perfect little lake house! Husband and our 2 dogs stayed a week at this cute little cottage. It was the most well stocked rental we’ve stayed at and super clean. It had everything you could possibly need, coffee, snacks, seasonings, utensils and cookware, games, beach stuff, and even a bed and toys for the dogs. I spent a lot time reading on the front deck enjoying the view of the lake. We used the fire pit down by the lake almost every evening. Our dogs had a blast and the neighborhood was cute and everyone was friendly. It was my birthday during our stay and I went to downtown Ionia and treated myself to a massage at The Massage Nook - highly recommend! There is also a dog park in downtown Ionia, though not much else to do there. Definitely stop at Pierson Farm market for fruits and veggies. We bought homemade maple syrup and strawberry preserves there too. Piersons has the best apple fritters on Sat & Sun that are HUGE! It was a very relaxing week and we would absolutely stay at this cottage again!

Cozy and Quiet

We needed a home base for the weekend while attending a family wedding and the hotels in the area were less than desireable. This cottage, while a bit further from town than we expected, was perfect. Very relaxing atmosphere and the decor was cute. We loved ir!

Saturday visit

My husband and I spent over 30 years on this lake and returned there to visit family. Megan‘s spot on the hill was charming and peaceful. It was beautifully decorated and renovated. We hated to leave and look forward to returning to this very special place .Megan was a terrific host! Megan made it perfect.
