Awesome Vacation
This is by far the cleanest, well-maintained property that we have had the opportunity to stay at. The property and the amenities were exactly as described and exceeded our expectations.
Jerry and Maryam were extremely hospitable and caring.
We enjoyed our time so much that we plan to return next year.

Lovely property and a cozy, clean cottage with a nice big kitchen and the comfort of 2 bathrooms. Very quiet neighborhood and lake.
It looks like they thought of everything in terms of outdoor activities!

Perfect getaway
Loved this cottage! Immaculate with all the comforts of home. Great Wi-Fi if you need to do a little work while you’re on vacation. Fishing was good although we had a bit of a cold spell which affected it a bit. Close to town so easy access to grocery, restaurants, etc. Definitely recommend!

Lake Effect
We just returned from yet another stay at this cottage and again we had a wonderful time. The weather was great and the fish were biting and it was so peaceful and relaxing. As always the cottage was AAA clean and very comfortable (especially the new recliner they added this year). if you are looking for a cottage that is your home away from home with all the bells and whistles this is the one for you, you won't be disappointed. Thanks again for sharing your place with us. We'll be back again and again.

We are so pleased that we have developed a loyal following for our cottage. We believe in providing an excellent retreat for people who want to relax near the waterfront in a super clean and modern environment. Our clients often express surprise when they first see the cottage and consistently comment "This is the nicest cottage we have ever seen!" or "The pictures do not do justice to this cottage!". Of course, we are proud of that.
We welcome an exclusive type of visitor . . . those that place a high premium on quality and respect our property by keeping it pristine. Our "preferred" guests are very valuable to us and we look forward to their return every year.

Jerry is an excellent host, truly could not be more accommodating. He let us use 3 bikes, helmets, pontoon paddle boat, fire wood and fishing gear had we wanted it. Even took us on a tour of the lake in his pontoon. House was in perfect shape and is very well laid out, perfect for our family of 4 and dog. We left an oven mitt for the next guests as it was the only thing we couldnt find. The lake is beautiful and peaceful.One thing for future guests, out on the lake we had no problems with bugs. But walking around the area, especially some of the nearby streets, the gnats that like your eyes and nose are swarming nonstop. Bring tight fitting glasses and dont bother with DEET, they are immune. Try picardin based repellants, even high concentrations of deet do nothing.The neighborhood is great for casual biking and boating. Very quiet area on weekdays and peaceful setting for some much needed R&R

Lilac Cottage
We stayed for the week of the 4th of July. This is a very beautiful setting to look over the lake from the patio area. We were able to see fireworks and, on one stormy evening, lightening approaching from the west. Great fire pit to sit by the lake, too. The cottage sits on a small hill that slopes down to the water, I have a very bad knee that needs replacing and I did not have a problem (anymore than usual) with walking from the lake to the house. The home is well laid out to separate the sleeping area from the living area with plenty of room to spread out. My husband and son were able to catch some bass, pike and catfish (we took our 17 foot deck boat). A wonderful, peaceful week of rest....exactly what we needed. Jerry was a wonderful host and we look forward to our next visit to this beautiful home!

The cottage was cute. It is simple and nothing fancy. It has all old furniture and coffee pot and dishes. The bed was very comfortable. It does have water toys like rowboat,kayaks, paddleboat but they are old and heavy to use. They are not modern and lite weight. They are not tied up to dock when you arrive. You have to figure it out and I did find a little string in garage to use on paddle boat not enough for anything else. You would have to drag it back and forth to the shore as you use these items. Beach is small and doesn’t go right into the water. You have to step down on a brick. It is wooded but does get plenty of sun. Lots of beach chairs to relax in. If you are older the hill is steep going down to the water. Newaygo is a cute town and the Riverfront park is amazing. You can tube,kayak, swim or fish there. Tiny’s ice cream was great. Everything was dog friendly. We took our golden doodle with us everywhere. The Silver Lake dunes on Lake Michigan were amazing. The lighthouse was great. There is plenty of wineries to go to. We went to Poor Michigan Wine Bar. It was good. The cottage was relaxing and they have Swans on Brooks Lake. Beautiful views! My husband fished and caught lg. mouth bass. Jerry is kind and meets you with keys for the place when you arrive. Thanks for a relaxing place to relax.

Thanks for taking the time to write a review for our cottage and we are very pleased that you enjoyed the area. As a point of clarification … the dinnerware is mismatched (deliberately) and the same is true for other kitchen supplies. It was a judgment call on “style” because we felt it provided the right atmosphere for a "cottage". Some of the boats are old and some are not and all are of good quality. We agree with your perception, but wanted you to know it was a “planned ambiance”. The electronics, beds, etc. are quite new and high quality. We want our guests to be comfortable. Again, many thanks for your feedback. We always consider that to be helpful. May the rest of your summer be enjoyable.

Very clean, lovely cottage in a pretty location
The cottage was pristine and had every amenity you could want. We had a few glitches that were quickly worked out with the property manager. My only suggestion would be that the mattresses were uncomfortable. If you have any joint issues or back problems this may not be the right rental for you.

Charming Get-Away
Jerry was a fantastic host and this little cottage was everything we needed for a family get-away. Clean, comfortable with a complete kitchen. Paddle boat and pool noodles were great fun on the lake. I took a lovely peaceful walk every morning around part of the lake to see all the cute cottages and enjoyed the forest, too. As a light sleeper, the house water pump woke me up a couple times but the beds were comfortable and vacation naps are great. I loved the steps down to the lake and s’mores at the fire pit. Comfy recliners, books and HBO were great for downtime, too. Lovely place!

Best Cottage ever!
We have stayed at two other cottages previous to this one this summer. This is by far the best property. It's more than a cottage. It's a perfect little house, and spotlessly clean. Great property owner. Everything we needed for our week in the sun and water. And best of all it's also in a wooded setting.

オーナーについて
オーナー : Jerry Komejan
We are a professional couple that also have had a personal cottage on Brooks Lake for 14 years. In fact, we have been visiting this lake for over 30 years as we have had friends there for a long time.
We currently live in Holland, Michigan and have been lifelong West Michigan residents. Our college degrees are from Hope College which is a private liberal arts college in Holland and then we have been working for large corporations based in West Michigan. People who know us describe us as extremely high integrity, very committed doing everything 'right', and being good people to work with. Of course, we are not perfect, but we try to do the very best that we can - in our own lives and in our work with others. It's just very important to us to set high standards.
In addition to our roots here, we have traveled the world extensively for business and pleasure - we have met so many wonderful people everywhere in our travels and at Lilac Cottage.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
After visiting this lake for many years, we finally had the opportunity to purchase a home on the lake in 1999. We restored this home over a period of several years. Then, in 2006, when this property became available, we decided to purchase it and build Lilac Cottage as a rental.
From the onset, we wanted to provide a unique experience for our guests. We had heard so many 'horror' stories of people renting cottages and being very disappointed when they arrived and actually saw the property. Often, we heard of cottages being so dirty that the first day would be consumed with cleaning it themselves. Also, we heard stories of cottages in poor repair with shoddy furniture, and appliances, and not fully equipped.
We decided to provide a very clean cottage with all of the modern amenities . . . a place we would love to stay in ourselves (and we are very picky people). So we built the cottage - well insulated, oak woodwork, cute decor, nice carpet, good furniture, good equipment, extra clean, nice linens, multiple TVs, a small stereo with music, games, etc. There would be no 'roughing it' for our guests. And outside, there would be a nice patio, chairs, a good grill, several small 'fun' boats, etc.
Our efforts paid off. We have repeat guests every year and even our new guests comment on how the cottage is one of the nicest ones they have ever rented. We are very proud of that.
So yes, our standards are high. We expect our guests to treat our property kindly - that way, we can continue to provide a very nice experience for our visitors.
この宿泊施設の特徴
This property has very nice lake views and is a wonderful, relaxing place to just sit on the patio or around a firepit next to the water. This is why we describe the cottage as a 'relaxing get away'. It's a way to be in a casual environment and still have the amenties of a modern and ultra-clean cottage.
For people who want to 'get away from it all', this is a good place to be.
We have tried to provide many amenties that make it possible to just come without hauling a lot of extras along. We provide bikes, small boats, books, music, magazines, towels, etc. etc. The idea is that all you have to bring is yourself and buy your own 'consumables'.
We also take great pride in the initial impression that we always hear from our visitors . . . 'This is so much more than I expected!' That is our goal.
