Our family of four enjoyed our time very much. The cottage and Mullett Lake were perfect for our interests in bicycling and kayaking. The screened porch was the best spot for sunrise coffee and all our meals. The warm hospitality of Jan and Kevin make this rental stand out. The cottage is on the same property as their year-round home, and they checked on our enjoyment regularly and offered helpful advice, bike storage in their garage, and floating things for the lake. Plus wifi, which was nice for communications but a bit slow for downloads. Cable TV was ample.
The cottage was economical in every way. No wasted space here! The kitchen has got everything you'd need for any amount of cooking. The bedrooms were snug (a full-size bed and a dresser in each), so we were glad to have the “sleeping loft” for one of our teens; it also has a bed.
Location between towns of Cheboygan and Indian River provided all necessities and some fun activities without touristy trash like Mackinaw City, which is nearby if you really want fudge and tee shirts. The lake was clear, not too cold, and sandy off the nice dock. They provide room for a boat if you bring one.
The North Central Trail runs just behind the property, great for biking and running. It's a nicely maintained rail-to-trail for all seasons. Not far from I-75 for jaunts up to Mackinac, the bridge and U.P. All in all, this was a great place to spend our Up North vacation week!
