Great location with plenty of stuff to do. It was a little chilly during my stay so I wasn't able to enjoy the lake. The cottage was clean but, I have pretty high standards. Everything was provided for your comfort.

Great Stay
Nothing extravagant but everything you need. I never found myself saying "I wish it had..." something. Fit the four of us just fine. The location on the lake was fantastic! Shallow sandy water for quite a distance. Not much boat noise. Lovely view of the dunes (which are really quite unique). The Silver Lake area is small but has a real beach-town vibe going for it.

Disappointing ..smells like mold, very narrow pier
Broken toilet seat, intense mold smell, moldy outdoor furniture, and dark dreary decor and very narrow dock all lent for a disappointing stay. Looked inviting on paper but not a comfortable stay , albeit beautiful weather and nice lake view.

Don’t rent from this host
Safety concerns:
Several exposed screws at lakefront
Neither ladder to exit lake adequately attached
Electric to gas range not working. You are able to manually light the range top.
Code violation-electrical panel not easily accessible and too close to hot water heater
Hot tub has a major No leak, not useable.
Interior doors do not latch.
Bring your own 1-ply toilet paper. 1 partial roll was provided with the cottage. Every other cleaning supply and plenty of trash bags were provided.
There are plenty of dishes and kitchenware, linens, blankets and pillows and outdoor furniture provided. The cabin decor is really nice. The location and the access to the lake is perfect. If you bring kayaks to the lake, definitely go to the creek on the west side of the lake. The entrance to the creek is marked by a little lighthouse.
Host unable to resolve any of the MANY issues brought to his attention. Everything is someone else’s fault or the person “complaining” has unrealistic expectations. We were refunded what I consider to be an inadequate amount since his dishonesty and lack of accountability ruined a vacation that myself and my extended family were planning and looking forward to for months. Contrary to what I am sure his disparaging comment to this review will be, my family neither needs or expected a Hilton experience. Would have been nice if the advertised amenities were functional though.
Cottage away from the lake has major water intrusion issues.

Contrary to this review, we take great pride in our cottage. We are constantly upgrading it and making it nicer. Unfortunately the hot tub did break prior to their stay and was not operable. As for the stove, we have a gas stove and the igniter is electric. The electric portion of the stove is plugged into a GFCI that had popped during their stay. I instructed them to push the little button on the outlet to reset it but, unfortunately, they were unwilling to do so. Upon them checking out the cleaning people pressed the button and the issue was resolved. We do have our cleaning people put 2-3 rolls of TP in each unit. I gave this customer $500 for their inconvenience but they wanted more than $2000 back after staying all week. These people are using the review process to extort money. The experience of renting on VRBO is good for the most part. The only problem is that you never know who you’re going to be renting to. Needless to say, I would never rent to these people again.
We want all of our customers to enjoy their stay, but you have to have the personality and demeanor to enjoy staying on a lake. If you go through life trying to find fault, you will always find reasons to be unhappy. We have one of the best locations on the entire lake. The cottage is nicely appointed and has great views of the Sand dunes and the lake.

HEAVEN!
Truly enjoyed Bob’s lakeside cottage. THE best location on the lake! The cottage was very well appointed with every cooking utensil/dishes etc needed, grills (both gas and charcoal) even a crock pot! The cottage was very clean and very nicely decorated. Easy kayak to the river was also a nice perk. No AC? No problem! Beautiful lake breezes every day/night made it very comfortable + ceiling fans in every room. No AC needed and this was mid-late July. We absolutely enjoyed our two weeks at this little piece of heaven. The view of the dunes is killer! Charming vintage cottage, couldnt have asked for any better. Owner was very responsive and nice, glad we had a chance to say hello to him and his family. Thank you for a beautiful time and many memories made. See you next year!

Family week at the lake
The owner was great to work with and very responsive. The location is perfect for doing a variety of activities. Although pets allowed not very conducive with how close the cottages are together. Lake is shallow with sandy bottom. The cottage needs a good cleaning - very dusty and spiders in every corner.

Great location!
The online listing was spot on. Great location. You are renting someone’s summer home. Perfect for 5 of us, don’t think 6 would fit. Since we cook a lot at the cottage, pans could have been updated. Borrowed some from the other Rental cottage on the property and it worked out great. Hot tub and grill were an added bonus.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Possibly you overlooked some pans as the cottage has a lot of pans. Or maybe some were moved to the other cottage by the previous renter. We will look into that. The cottage is a two bedroom with a pull out couch in the family room.

Definitely a quiet area of silver lake- Great Lake Front
Nice quiet area of silver lake. Wonderful lakefront . Outside of town off busy street. Cottage great for family of 4. Was a bit crowded with 6 people however we managed just fine. Very relaxing. Nice neighborhood. We were able to grill, enjoy the scenery and easy to get in the water as shallow by the dock. Enjoyed a fire in the evening watching the sunset.

Very Cozy
Cottage was super cute and being right on the lake was ideal! Owner was GREAT to deal with and very fast to respond to any questions that I had. Only downfall to this place is the lack of parking. We have a big full size pickup and it would really only fit in one spot unless we parked parallel. We wod definitely consider staying here again!

Highly Recommend this Property; Will be Returning
We have stayed at other properties in years past. This year, we tried The Davies' cabin. AWESOME PLACE! As to the location & property, you are right on the water (no road frontage) at the quiet end of the lake. The view is incredible. There is ample yard area to enjoy yard games. My family preferred the quieter end. With regard to the cabin, very well-stocked! There was nothing the kitchen lacked. The cabin lived up to our expectations. Hot tub was an added bonus!! Nice grill for cooking out. It is our intention to return to this property next year and possibly rent the 2nd cabin as well as our family grows. We were able to meet the owners. Nice people and interested in continued improvements.

Great cottage in a great location.
This is a wonderful cottage with a great location. It's right on the lake and has a nice area for swimming and a dock for your boat. There are 2 cottages on the property and we rented the one closest to the water. It was the hottest part of the summer and we were still able to sleep comfortably even though there isn't AC, I assume it was do to the cool breeze off the lake. We met the owners and they seem like very nice people. Hopefully we will be able to rent there again next year.
