All the reviews saying the pics do the cabin no justice are absolutely correct! Incredibly clean and cozy! I loved all the little vintage details and stained glass windows. This cabin could be the entire vacation! My partner and I stayed Sunday-Sunday with our 4 youngest kiddos ages 14, 12, 9 & 9 and it was the perfect place for us! We plan to make this our “go to” place in Michigan! Plenty of fishing and water fun! My kids really loved the pedal boat and having an extra paddleboard (we brought ours too so they didn’t have to share as much lol) Enough space/privacy that we were able to find some quiet romantic moments as well

Very nice cabin on the lake. You could tell it's an older place with charm but all updated appliances. Very secluded and peaceful. 4 to 5 people comfortable imo. Fishing was very good. Large mouth, big perch, sunfish was big as well and from dock was reeling in some kind of fish over and over. The lake is smaller but has everything you need. If I had to give 1 drawback would be the only way to the water is from the dock. It's has tall plants and marsh area that prevents u from walking to shore fish or access water. No beach area. That is being picky to me but may be big for others. I am so glad I was able to spend time their and by far one of the best cabins and property I rented. Definitely marked and would love to go back. Thank you for the memories

Perfect Getaway

My family and I booked this location to escape the city for the weekend with our dogs and it was the perfect getaway. The hosts were lovely, the property was the perfect updated cabin, and the space was away from it all with a perfect night view and trails to wander.

Peaceful and Relaxing Stay

We stayed for two days and had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was perfect for our family of 3. We really enjoyed touring the lake on the paddle boat. It was a relaxing and peaceful stop on our way to the UP. Carole was great. She was responsive and quickly answered all our questions. We definitely would stay here again.
