Beautiful home, beautiful lake views. No visible sunsets or stars but that was a weather issue. Hiked Sleeping Bear dunes, visits to Traverse City and lots of other quaint towns still decorated for Christmas. Loved it all!Highly recommend, must be extraordinary in the summer months.

My family and I have vacationed in this area for decades and this is one of the best places we've stayed at. Owner was responsive. The location is idea. The view is spectacular and from the Master Bedroom you can hear the slow waves rolling in at night (summer). Ideal.

Started off a little shaky, but it ended up being a nice trip. Steps to the water right out your door. Kayaks on hand and we already booked another trip in September. Thank you!

Loved our Fall get-away at this cozy cottage! Convenient location, amazing views (saw several bald eagles out front windows), nice amenities. Rebecca is an awesome property manager— we had no issues with communication or check-in process.

This was the perfect location and amenities. We loved being right on the water, doing our morning yoga looking out at the lake. Kayaking in Good Harbor was lovely. The house was well appointed and clean. We can’t wait to go back!

The cottage and location were perfect for the kind of quiet getaway we were hoping for. We managed to take advantage of the excellent hiking in the area, as well as the local wineries and dining options. We'd definitely consider returning to spend more time on the private section of beach when the weather is warm and the breezes gentle. Highly recommended!

Location, location, location. The beach is just outside the glass wall that lets you enjoy amazing sunsets. The beach area is sandy with vast walking areas. House is cozy and comfortable. Near great restaurants and wineries but far enough away to escape.

The house is beautiful. It has everything you need in it. Beautifully furnished. Views are amazing. The children loved the sand area right in front of the house. Great location for our family yearly photos. I just wished they had blinds. Plan for sun protection if you stay in the living room in the afternoon.

The house and property were exactly as described and depicted. Absolutely lovely place with the perfect beachfront and back deck to grill out and enjoy sunsets. Could not be happier with our week we spent there. Our only regret was that we didn’t reserve 2 weeks. We truly didn’t want to leave. Thank you for sharing your property with us. It is truly paradise. We will be back.😁
