Great weekend stay at the lake! The house was perfect for our weekend getaway, looked just like the pictures. Beds were very comfortable and our kids loved the play room above the garage. The host was great with communication and any questions we had were always answered very quickly. Would definitely recommend this place!

Brook was amazing as our host. We have booked many VRBO's with our adult children and grandchildren. This VRBO was exceptional in that the host/ owner thought out every detail to accommodate our visit. Very classy and detailed to our personal needs was amazing..would highly recommend this beautiful home.

This was a lovely cottage that was tastefully decorated and very well equipped with all the essentials. We enjoyed using the kayaks to paddle in the lake. Great hot tub that was the star of the week for our granddaughter. Nice quality mattresses and linens. I especially loved sitting outside in the mornings and evenings and hearing the loons calling. Overall just a great location close to Mackinac Island, Petosky and Traverse City, the stars of Northern Michigan. Highly recommend:Douglas Lake Digs.

This was a great experience. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds and pillows were very comfortable. Bring some bug spray for incredible stat gazing. Just a great experience with elementary aged kids, parents and grandparents. We also rented a boat separately. The cove was grassy, but great for bait fish and some fishing. We caught LOTS of northern pike and bass just outside of the cove in both directions. Great fishing once you figure out the fish tendencies. We will be back!

The cabin was GORGEOUS with an impressive and appreciated amount of amenities. The Game Room was a nice touch. Spotlessly clean throughout the property. Clint was very friendly and responsive. They had a member of their team come by, plow the driveway, and shovel the sidewalks/backyard patio area so we could easily access the hot tub after the heavy snow. Would’ve loved to stay here longer, will definitely plan a return trip if we’re in the area again. Thank you!
