Wonderful Cabin!
This is probably by far my favorite place we’ve ever rented. It had a wonderful view. We had a nights of stargazing (saw shooting stars). The property is fully equipped with anything you need having the rowboat was perfect for the teenagers and the bunkhouse was also great for them! We will definitely try to rent again!

Wonderful Stay
We loved our week at this sweet cabin. There was plenty of space for our crew and the cabin was incredibly clean and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The teens loved the bunk house, kayaking and fishing while the littles loved the shallow lake by the dock and all the opportunities to see turtles through the clear water. It was quiet, relaxing and exactly what we needed. Thank you!

Wonderful!
We had a fantastic experience at this lake house. The setting is gorgeous, the host/owner is helpful and kind, the house is clean, and has all of the amenities one could ask for. This house on turtle lake provides much fun for a family with kids or a group of adults. There is something at the house/lake for everyone, and plenty of other things to do in nearby areas.

A perfect fit for our family
We had a wonderful relaxing vacation at this property. We enjoyed the warm and shallow lake where we could comfortably let our kids play. The kayaks were a big hit as well. We were in comfortable driving distance (20-40 minutes) of all the hiking and beaches and dunes of the area.

Sweet Lakeside cottage
This was our first time to the area and plans were made on very short notice. The owner John was very helpful with the process. The cottage is nestled in a nice quiet area on a small lake great for kayaking and swimming. Many of the area attractions are easy to drive to and enjoy. Perfect vacation.

Sister get away
My sister and dropped my son at Interlochen camp and headed to this nearby cottage for a sister get-away. It was perfect! Quiet and charming! The host was extremely responsive to questions! The house was super clean!!! We sat by the dock with our feet in the sandy lake. I enjoyed kayaking around and counting turtles!!! We were an easy drive to Lake Michigan beaches, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, and Leeland/Fishtown. We loved it all! Most of all, the peaceful views, clean home, and attentive host made the trip perfect.

A delightful spot in Michigan
We headed to this wonderful area to attend the inaugural Half Ironman in Frankfort from Iowa. A quick drive over to the event, made this an ideal spot to relax and prepare. The cottage was bigger than we expected and super clean! The communication was very timely and kind from John. This was a great spot for us to land, we just didn’t have enough time to enjoy all it had to offer. We brought life jackets to enjoy the kayaks and lake, but ran out of daylight. We did get to enjoy coffee while watching the water, which is a personal favorite. I would definitely recommend a stay here and if we come back to the area, this can be our booking again! Thank you for sharing your home.
