Perfect in every way

We stayed here for two weeks in between homes. The set up was perfect. The home was clean and had everything you could possibly need. Unfortunately, we did not get to use the beach and lake area as much as we what I wanted to, but able to watch the beautiful sunsets. Host was available always and very easy to work with.

Picture Perfect

The cottage is adorable and on such a gorgeous property. The host was beyond nice. The house was spacious enough for me, my husband and our two young kids. The amenities and finishes on the cottage really were perfect. I’d easily stay again. And we had wildlife visitors (deer family) outside the kitchen window. My son had a blast checking each night to see when they’d return during dinner time.

A Relaxing and Pleasurable Experience

Sunset down at the lake…Breakfast on the patio….Cozying up with a book in the sunroom…Those are some of the relaxing pleasures from our experience at Nancy and Dan‘s place. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. It was a joy to experience the country atmosphere; allowing us to see a family of deer, a woodchuck visitor, a woodduck, sandhill cranes, and a heron, as well as hear various delightful bird songs. We were able to drive easily to nearby towns in the area like Ann Arbor. Dan and Nancy were exceptional hosts. They provided us with warm, friendly hospitality. We will definitely return someday.

Lovely MI Getaway

We were in MI for our daughter's college graduation. We wanted to be away from the crowds. This was an excellent place to be able to get away, enjoy our family time, celebrate her with her friends. The cottage is modern with access to beautiful lake. It also close to restaurants and groceries. The only thing to get used to is the smell of the well water. It did not hinder our lovely time.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Ford

Hi, I'm Nancy, I'm a Hair Stylist/Salon Owner from the Brighton/Hartland area for over 35 years. I love what I do, but I've been wanting to acquire a rental property for a few years now and we finally have gotten that opportunity. Dan and I enjoy spending time on the property doing many projects, and most of all, enjoying the lake!

Why they chose this property

We acquired this beautiful 13 acres on Long Lake, with 300' of lake front property in September 2020. The property was originally owned by the Schaefer family (Schaefer Hwy, Dearborn MI). The main house was built in 1928 and the property has many out buildings that were used for entertaining, including a guest house (The Cottage). There's a large chicken coop for raising chickens which supplied the eggs to a tavern down in Dearborn in the 30's-40's, along with the steel plant. The property, with both houses and the outbuildings being in need of some updates and maintenance, required a lot of sweat equity. It's been a labor of love, and we're enjoying the process! We're looking forward to having you stay and enjoying this beautiful piece of property.

What makes this property unique

Sitting high upon a hill sets the stage for a beautiful view of the lake with gorgeous sunsets and sunrises. Plenty of property for a walk through the wooded trails or down to the shoreline.
