Perfectly cozy little cottage in a great location. Beds were comfy, kitchen was well supplied for all our cooking needs, and we all enjoyed swimming and floating in the lake! It was really nice to have two separate living areas as well- the green leather chair upstairs was my favorite spot to sneak away and read in the evening!

Z Cabin Stay

Our family had a wonderful time at the Z Cabin on beautiful Lake St. Clair! The home was stocked with everything that we needed. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of linen and towels. We enjoyed using the kayaks to explore the lake and were happy to find all sizes of lifejackets for adults and kids. We would be happy to return and use the cabin again for our next stay.

Peaceful. Quiet. Spectacular lake view. It’s worth the steps (51, we counted ) to go for a swim or a float. The second week of September and the water temp is just fine. The bed downstairs is big and very comfortable. There is an A/C unit in every room, which is a nice feature. Also liked the newer fridge and updated shower.

Beautiful, warm, comfortable lake house.

We absolutely loved the lake house.The only feature that prospective guests might note is that there is only one bathroom. This didn't affect our stay at all, but it might be a drawback for some.

Clean, comfy, and perfect for our family trip

We had a lovely stay at Z Cabin. It was comfortable and had all we needed for our stay to visit with family in the area. I really appreciated that it was so well stocked with items we might need and the kids (and adults) had a blast in the water and when using the provided water craft. With the easy water access and the AC - we had a lovely time during the hot August days/nights.

Cute cottage

This place is super cute. My only issue and reason for not giving 5 stars was the extremely strong smell of mold/wet smell particularly in the bedroom. Other than that it was nice for a lake visit.

Wonderful lakeside property

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have a small family gathering. The water activities were many and added a lot of enjoyment to our stay. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything you could want or need. The host was friendly, informative , accommodating and prompt in communicating. Don’t hesitate to book this lakeside house.

Why they chose this property

Z Cabin is just far enough from the city to feel remote: quiet, starry night skies, sounds of nature. Yet close enough to venture into town for a day of fun or evening out.

What makes this property unique

Lake St. Clair is a unique, meandering lake ideal for kayaking, paddle boarders and fishing. Z Cabin is perfectly located on the large, 5 mph, quiet section of the lake.
