cabin is clean and homey :) host is on it with communication. also left journals of other guests who have stayed there the last 30 years so that’s neat :) definitely pay the extra charge for the boat. it’s so fun. and don’t be apprehensive , steve will help you out if you’re unsure on how to get the boat going. lots of wildlife across the water just from the deck. we will be going back :) short 3 minute drive to lake michigan with public beach. also saw a trail between the rental and the public beach where you can head to the dunes. we stayed in october, so not much open for the season but can grab stuff in Hart. also in october, zero boats on silver lake except us :) so fun!!
