The views are beautiful we barely turned on the TV. Just enjoyed the views of the lake. Sherry and Mark are wonderful hosts and easily accessible if needed.Became engaged at this romantic cottage, I’ll never forget it. Sherry Mark thank you for the memories.

This place was extremely clean, great view, had everything we needed. I love traveling south to the ocean but sometimes you can only travel close by. The personal touches, tasty arrival, and a fun surprise made this beautiful home stand out. It wasn’t just a typical rental for Memorial Day weekend it was a luxurious get away. Sherry and Mark are the best. Quiet time, beautiful fireworks over the lake, and Frankenmuth close by finished out the weekend. Most importantly being Pet Friendly! Bama B LOVED it here.

Great property! The walkway from the driveway to the cottage had a retaining wall that was really leaning towards to steps. Other than that, we had a great time considering the weather!

This was mine and my husband's 5th stay at this rental! We love this place so much. We have brought our Cane Corso with us for the last 3 stays. It is so relaxing and quiet and peaceful. The view off the deck is gorgeous and has a gate at the stairs so our dog can sit next to us while we enjoy a cocktail watching the lake and the sunset. We also love taking her on the fishing boat over to the islands where she can swim and get out all her energy. The property is just as it is pictured. I love the open lay out and the kitchen! This place is one of a kind! Neighbors on both sides are also very friendly and the area is quiet. Love it so much!

It was the perfect getaway for what we were looking for. Nice view, access to the lake, and Frankenmuth was nearby which was a fun adventure. Thank you Mark and Sherry.

Early summer vacation

Overall a very pleasant vacation, we enjoyed visiting the small towns in the area. The cottage was very nice inside, clean and stocked well with what we needed. The bed was comfortable which was important to us! We were a little disappointed in the deck furniture, which was quite worn and swimming in front of the cottage wasn't good. All in all, a very nice cottage that could use a little maintenance on the walkways outside. Neighbors on the East side were very friendly. As others have mentioned, all the signs posted up and down the access road referring to "rental property/not hotels" weren't very welcoming.

We were looking to relax, and we did. We will say the lake was disappointing because it is over wrought with weeds. However, the house was amazing! Very homy, very clean, it had everything we could possibly imagine! Sherry and Mark were wonderful and couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. The neighbors were very nice too! Frankenmuth is close, we recommend going (don't bring pets) and so is a really great Mexican restaurant called Don Felipe.
