Everything was wonderful. Justin was great at answering all our questions and for his recommendations. Thank you for recommending Russo's. Excellent food, especially their pizza and cheese sticks. The house was very neat and tidy. It was fully equipped with pots, pans, and utensils if you choose not to go out and eat. It was definitely a needed get away and if we come back to Gun Lake, we would love to stay here again.

I love this house. This is my second time here but not my last. Justin is so easy to work with. Very quick to respond. We are in the area to visit family so we don’t cook there but it seems well stocked should we choose to. Love the shower and the beds. The place is quiet. Highly recommend.

This was the perfect location and accommodation for my husband and I for short get away. Very clean and comfortable and well stocked with everything you could want or need. The hot tub works great and was clean and the beds are really comfortable and entire place is decorated really nicely. Location was great for doing day trips to explore Grand Rapids, Holland and Saugatuck and the casino is just minutes away. Justin was very responsive and check in was easy too. Definitely recommend!!

Stay at Gun Lake

My stay at The Cove Near Gun Lake was excellent. The house was spacious and clean, and had all of the amenities one could ask for. The beds were very comfortable, and AC worked perfectly when it was hot out. If you're looking for a nice place to stay in the Gun Lake area this is a very good option.

This was a nice house in a great location. The house was clean and well stocked with anything you might need. I contacted the host, Justin, about a few questions we had. He was extremely quick to respond and accommodating to us. The house was quiet other than road noise at certain times from Patterson. It was no worse than you would have anywhere. We absolutely would stay there again and in fact do plan to our next visit to the area to see family.

Comfy home for a weekend away

This home is gorgeous and was a perfect fit for four people. Justin, the host, was very responsive and helpful. We're thankful that four cars fit on the driveway as we were all coming from different locations. The check in process was simple and check out was even simpler - which we don't often find these days! Great location and easy to find.

Cute, well appointed home

The house is just as described. Decorated well, very clean, nice little touches. Lots of kitchen and bath supplies, coffee bar, lots of kitchen extras. One bed is softer, one is firmer so should find one that works for you. It's located on a main road so there's some road noise if the windows are opened but not too bad. It's right next door to a pizza place but there's is a privacy fence so there is a little privacy when you're in the hot tub. Communication with the host was good and very responsive.
