My girls and I have been staying here for years. It’s close to everything we want to see and do. Love the new driveway, it made the whole place feel different. More private.
I have stayed a week here for about four years in a row. The hosts are always helpful. I love this location. You can hear live music at the Lake Ann Brewery or explore the attractions in the area.
Beautiful location. So much to do within 30 minutes… Convenient for Kayaking, hiking, shopping, breweries, wineries, restaurants and breathtaking scenery.
Cottage was nice. We were out exploring most of the time but was perfect to come back after a days activity and have a comfortable place to get a nights rest.
Sweet cottage!...Lovely, quiet lake!...Easy walk to the grocery store, restaurant, park with playground! The cottage was a perfect size for the 3 of us.
We enjoyed our stay very much!!...Would definitely give a thumbs up! 😊
I have stayed here several times. I enjoy fishing on the lake, but there is always something happening in Lake Ann. The microbrewery, restaurant and well stocked country store are within walking distance.
This was our second time staying at the cottage and once again it was just perfect. Enjoyed the fire pit with friends and beautiful sunsets. Highly recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cottage! Very clean, comfortable bed, plenty of towels and the kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed using the kayaks, row boat, grill, and fire pit. Owners met us at check in and were delightful, we will definitely come back!
My wife and I came up for our 31st anniversary. We usually stay right in or very near TC. We found this place online and it was amazing! Beautiful quiet lake, the house was very nice and we had everything we needed. The little town right around the block was amazing from the Lake Ann Grocery to the Lake Ann Brewery and the restaurant next door. Live music every night at the brewery and great food you can pick up and eat at the surprisingly large venue behind. We will definitely be back!

Relaxing
The owners greeted us as we arrived and showed us around....they were so nice, cottage is cute, comfortable, cozy, screened in porch was so nice, especially the day it rained, we used the paddle boat so relaxing there......and well stocked with paper products and cookware...7 days didn't seem long enough....would stay again. It was GREAT.....also very clean and wood for a campfire....town is walking distance with a little grocery store, bar, restaurant and post office...and wi-fi.....cable tv. what more could you want...and little private beach to walk to on Lake Ann....Owners should be proud to offer this cottage...they did a good job.
We absolutely loved our stay here! The location is wonderful with food, grocery, and a brewery just a ten minute walk away and the property itself was just wonderful. The enclosed porch and gorgeous lake views were my favorite and my husband had a blast fishing on the dock and with the row boat. We also enjoyed the quietness of the area, as well as the plentiful outdoor seating and made use of the gas grill twice! We drove to the Traverse City Cherry Festival twice and then also went to Sleeping Bear Dunes and both were just 20-30 min away. My son loved playing outside, sleeping in the porch, and really enjoyed the playground and ice cream that were ten minutes away! We will hopefully be back soon!

Clean, pleasant, exactly as described
My husband, Bart and I had a wonderful time while staying at the Lone Pine Cottage in Lake Ann, Michigan August 6 - 13, 2016, and would certainly recommend Lone Pine to friends. We hope to return again next year. We had everything we needed to be comfortable and self sufficient. It is a perfect, central location to stay if one wants to explore the Lelanau and Benzie Counties. We found it to be very private, quiet and peaceful. Finally, it was very easy and pleasant to communicate with Jeannine and her husband and we appreciate all they did for us.

Charming small cottage even with toddler in tow.
Our small family of 3 stayed a full week in this wonderful little cottage. It has a single bedroom, which is fine for parents that cosleep, but a bit small for a packnplay. The bathroom is rather large though and we "created" second bedroom for our 20 month old in there and we were able to stay up late without the toddler turning into a gremlin. It was perfect for us, though some may be uncomfortable with this arrangement.
We loved the screened porch and enjoyed a number of meals listening to the ducks on the lake. The dock, down a staircase from the house, was a great place to visit with the fish and turtles that swim right up to it. We even took the paddle boat out a couple of times.
The place is not really located on a swimming pond, but is located just a few minutes walk from the village of Lake Ann's small town beach. If you are planning on swimming in the lake, be sure to take water shoes as the rocky bottom was a little hard on the feet. Do bring beach towels because you will not be able to launder towels that get messy at the beach.
There is a small general store in town that has most things you may have forgotten but you will pay for convenience. Across from there is a small town park perfect for playing with children. Also don't forget the pancake breakfast I'm town on Sunday.
Lake Ann was a short drive from Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. It would also be a great base to explore the wine trails though we were not able to do that with a toddler in tow.
We would stay here again it was a wonderfully relaxing stay. Overall the property was as described. It was clean and Jeanine and Dan were welcoming and helpful.
Out of our many trips back to visit Northern MI since moving away, this rental is our new favorite! Bryan Lake access was blissful and the host’s thoughtfulness was unrivaled - we had everything we needed! My husband , son, and I had just the right space and the reliable internet connection made working remotely a breeze. The Sun room and outdoor spaces make the property feel much larger than expected. Easy access to Lake Ann and the quick trek to TC were perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We’ll certainly be back! 😊
Not only was the property clean, spacious for two people, and far exceeded our expectations, the location was perfect. Walking distance to pizza, Lake Ann Brewery, and the local grocery/market. Highly recommend!
What a lovely spot! This cozy cabin is a perfect location for visiting all the Traverse area spots...Everything was within 20 minutes to a half hour away. A perfect base camp for a great week. Lake Brian, on which the cabin sits, is peaceful and just lovely. We sat out every morning and evening just enjoying the serenity of the lake. We loved having the use of the rowboat and went fishing several times. (If you fish be sure to bring a filet knife, that was the one thing we missed and the one we bought at the store was dull). To our delight, we made friends with a turtle who visited us daily for worm treats (I know it's silly, but it made our vacation...his name is Ernesto btw ;) ) Lake Ann is a small town with everything you need. The grocery is amazing, the Brewery and The Stone Oven were awesome for food, beer, and music and we went several times during the week. The cabin itself is just adorable and very cozy. The pictures are accurate. The place is nicely appointed and perfect for a couple. If you cook at home a lot as we do, I suggest bringing some of your favorite spices, some olive oil and butter, and other things you use regularly. This place is a gem. I would have loved to have met the host but they sure know how to make a guest comfortable. Thanks for the perfect retreat before the start of a busy school year. I do hope that we can come back someday. I highly recommend!.
The cabin is small - it would fit 2 adults better than a family, but we made it work just fine with 2 adults and 2 kids (10 & 5). The cabin itself is in a little village and a short ways down a more secluded drive (very little traffic). That being said, you are walking distance from the store/park/ice cream/pizza/brewery. The screened porch is awesome, and the fact you can walk down to the water & dock is also great. The owners had provided a rowboat and 2 kayaks for us. We made s’mores with the fire pit too. The owner(s) were responsive and kind. We would definitely stay again. I do wish there was a door instead of a curtain for the bedroom, but it is a small doorway (not sure if a door would fit?) and not a deal breaker. Thank you guys again!
Very cute place. Loved being right on the lake. Needed a fan and the owner had one at the house in under 10 minutes. There is a twin bed on the 3 season room which I loved. The little town of Lake Ann is great and has it's own brewery. The old fashioned grocery store is fantastic as is the coffee house.
