Lovely Location
Had a great time, this is a wonderful property and a charming old cabin with a pleasant owner. Only complaint came from my elderly parents who found the beds old and uncomfortable and sagging in the middle. Loved the location on Lower Herring, great trails nearby.

Stunning view, very clean, everything you need!
Peter was an excellent host, very responsive and accommodating. There were a lot of bugs this time of year (mid May) but they didn’t bite; otherwise zero complaints. The house is well stocked, extremely clean, conveniently located, and the view and beach access can’t be beat. Can’t wait to book another trip!

Michigan Getaway
My husband and I loved this property. The Lower Herring Lake is right in front of the cabin and the sunsets were lovely. We took advantage of the outside fire ring and a walk along the woodland path behind the cabin. The access to Lake Michigan was just as advertised. Lots of beach to enjoy!!! The owner was very helpful with anything we needed. We recommend the Storm Cloud brewery in Frankfort. We had a very enjoyable meal there. Looking forward to coming again!!

Castaway Cabin
The title of my review is what our boys named the Cabin during our stay. The location of this cabin and everything that is included is amazing! It includes Kayaks and paddleboards along with being near Frankfort, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and of course private access to Lake Michigan. Lower Herring is so quiet and fun for swimming or paddling and the inlet to Lake MI gives way to a sandy beach for the kids to play. The cabin has everything you might need for a week at the Lake. The owners are great to work with too.

Great location, but needs maintaining
We rented the cabin in late July hoping for some quality lake time. While the location is great - on a small lake, just streets away from Lake Michigan - the cabin itself is in need of some TLC. We knew from the photos and previous reviews to expect rustic, however what we found was a large amount of bugs inside as a result of several broken or poorly installed screens and multiple leaks on rainy days (furnace and sun porch). We made the best of it during our stay, but would not return here.

Exceeded expectations!!
We had an amazing time during our stay at Peter's cabin.
Cute cabin, on the lake, surrounded by trees. Beautiful scenery, something out of a movie. Perfect location on the lake for our 2-year-old. Private sand area by the dock in front of the cabin. The water is only about 1-2 feet deep until the end of the dock which was perfect for our son to play in. Happy we were on Lower Herring as it was calm enough for us to get in the water every day. Loved access to the private beach at the Watervale Inn. When we went, we were the only family there. White sand and blue clear water. The location of the cabin was perfect. Easy 10-minute drive to Frankfort, Empire and about 15 minutes to Bealuh. We will most definitely be back. We were also allowed an early check in and late check out. Peter was very responsive and a great host.

Excellent stay
Reading the reviews, I thought the place would be dirty and brought cleaning supplies. It was not dirty at all, very clean. Some elements were worn, but it’s not advertised as brand new so I was expecting older. All major appliances worked great.
The owner helped us find a small sunfish boat on the lake, which was very kind. He responded promptly to our requests, and sorted out one issue we had.
The views are perfect and the amenities of all the kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards was a major draw for us - they were all in good working order. Plenty of life jackets and paddles. We used every boat at least once, and not one had issues.
Noise around us was low, evenings were pleasantly quiet.

Great location and sunsets, gross lake bottom
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It is nothing fancy, in fact everything is very dated but that's typical for the area. We didn't really spend too much time inside so it didn't bother us.
Pros:
There are kayaks, a row boat, canoe and paddleboards available to explore the lake. There is a fun sand dune and an outlet to lake Michigan directly across the lake from the cabin, maybe 10-15 min with an easy kayak ride. My kids LOVED running up and down the sand dune. The water is very close to the house, a comfortable temperature in July, and sunsets are beautiful!
Cons: When we checked in we found cobwebs and dust in the counters. I didn't like that I had to clean when I first arrived. A major disappointment was the abundance of plants and weeds on the bottom of lake from the shoreline all the way past the dock. It covered nearly all of the lake bottom on the property and was very squishy when stepped on. I had inquired about water depth for the safety of my 4 and 6 year-old children (shallow like I hoped for) and I was expecting a sandy bottom since the owner knew my children would be playing there. If I knew there would be plants all across bottom of lake I would not have rented. But if you don't have the concern I'd still recommend the property.

Rustic with a View
We love Lower Herring Lake and the whole surrounding area. We rented this property because a member of our group was doing the Frankfort Iron Man so the location was ideal. Peter was very prompt in answering calls with questions and help getting into the cabin. The cabin is directly across from “ the cut” access to one of the most beautiful stretches of Lake Michigan you can find. That said, be prepared for a rustic stay. I did spend some time cleaning surfaces and sweeping away thick spider webs from the outside windows. The doors are tricky but expected due to the age of the place. I would say that just a few updates ( like a new coffee pot) could make this place more charming . We did enjoy our stay overall.

First Time in Michigan
We have four kids age 6-16 and everyone really enjoyed this vacation! Kids learned how to kayak and paddle board in no time and loved spending time on the water. We loved being able to kayak over to Lake Michigan. We drove to Mackinac Island one day and went to Baldy Dunes another day. The rest of the time we spent at the cabin fishing, kayaking, and enjoying s’mores on the fire. It was the perfect vacation! Can’t wait to come back!

Fabulous Location!
We loved staying on Lower Herring Lake! It was so fun to paddle across the lake, through the inlet to the shores of Lake Michigan. So beautiful. We also loved how close the cabin is to Frankfort, making grocery shopping easy. The cabin was well equipped with paddle boards, kayaks, and a canoe. Really appreciated the dishwasher and laundry set-up. The wifi was good, and the TV set-up was good too, we were able to watch the Olympics easily. We would stay here again for sure.

We enjoyed our time at the cabin. The area is just beautiful! I would absolutely recommend this place! The screened in porch was a great place to paint rocks, play cards and relax and do laundry! I was surprised by the washer and dryer! Thank you for sharing your home with us Peter! I hope to be back and enjoy the sunny, summer weather.

Fall weekend getaway
My family and I stayed over the weekend. It was fall time and the scenery was beautiful. Even though our weekend was cloudy, rainy, and cool, the kids really enjoyed their time there. Mr. Turner was very easy to get a hold of and responded to my messages very quickly. One thing I would have to comment on, was that someone had put dirty plates with dried food back into the cabinet. I had to re wash all of those plates by hand (a good four or five of them) before we could eat. Also the screen door wouldn’t latch and our first night, there was a thunderstorm and the door kept banging around with the wind which scared my kids a little lol. Regardless we would still stay again. Probably in the summer though so the kids can enjoy the lake water and canoe and kayaks. Thanks for allowing us to stay!

Rustic perfection!
From the moment I stepped into the cabin, I felt welcomed and content. Every amenity was available and in perfect working order. Pete (the owner) was always available for every question and request, and prompt with his answers. Our stay was late in the season, so dock had already been pulled, but that is the norm for lake cabins, especially when temps near freezing. Our timing of the stay afforded us nearly absolute solitude, I never saw a single person on any of the beaches, which gave me the feeling that it was all mine, if only for a short stretch in time. Note to those who want to kayak or paddle-board across this beautiful lake: if it's particularly windy out, make sure you have experience at maintaining balance and direction, because you are in for a fight. The lake has a current, near the middle, that can make attempting to get across to the inlet leading to Lake Michigan, particularly difficult (1 hour plus, versus 10 minutes in calm conditions). For the less adventurous, you can drive up a nearby road and climb a small dune to access lake Michigan as well. Pete thought out his cabin, making sure everything a guest needed was included. I loved it here, and only feel saddened because our stay has come to an end. Next summer, I'll be back for sure. Bring your family, this is the perfect place!

Waking up and walking out to a beautiful view each morning was the relaxation we needed. The canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards provided enjoyable activities for the week. It was easy to get across the lake and spend time on the private beach on Lake Michigan. Peter was great througout the stay.
