Plenty of room, awesome view, could stay here forever. Little tricky locating it, once you do you’re good. Already planned another stay here, may make it an annual thing.

Forester Lake House

Another wonderful week on Lake Huron at Hoff Cottage. Clean and spacious this is a great place for families to enjoy. Water level was low this year making for a larger beach to explore and look for rocks and lake glass. We will be back.

The house was spacious enough to accommodate our family. The view from the deck was beautiful! The best part was the easy access to the beach. It was very private, like we were the only ones there. We would definitely rent this place again.

The cottage rooms were spacious enough, clean and maintained. The two full baths were great. The kitchen is under equipped if you plan to cook, but you could bring some of your own stuff.

Lake Huron getaway

The deck overlooking the lake was a highlight for me. The owner was very responsive to questions. It's a very steep hill to reach the beach but it's worth the climb.

Peaceful with Great Views

My family and I enjoyed our stay at the Hoff Cottage. We were disappointed that there was not a fire pit on the beach as indicated in the listing. Outside of that, the cottage was cozy, and the perfect size for our family of 6. The location of the property is great, very peaceful and quiet, which we very much appreciated.

You need to build your own fire pit on the beach. The water will just wash it away if you built something permanent.

All ladies in 70s and 80s. We love the ease of access-just one step to get in. Beautifully renovated bathrooms. Wonderful sheets. Nice floors. Quiet dishwasher. Perfect table for board games and cards. Also nice folding table for puzzles and games. Gorgeous view.

Perfect Getaway!

Hoff Cottage was the perfect getaway for our family! The cottage is well maintained and had plenty of space for our family of five and our dog. The lake views from the cottage are stunning! The kids loved swimming in Lake Huron and looking for petoskey rocks along the shoreline. Willis Marketplace is a short 4-mile drive from the cottage and had everything we needed: groceries, firewood, etc.. We had hot food from the deli (chicken tenders, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes) that was delicious. Overall, we had a lovely time.
