Great cozy little place. Close to the fun!

Great place. Great lake. Great owners. The owners sister Jill and her husband were great. They took care of any issues quickly and were extremely generous. We have our 10th Annual Girls Weekend. We ended up with 10 ladies and we fit just fine. We used a couple inflatables. Right across the street from Nha Taka Bar and within walking distance of Blossoms for a yummy breakfast. Will definitely be back if they let us!! Highly recommend.

Cottage

The location of this property was wonderful! Easily found and quaint restaurant/store within walking distance. Lake was beautiful with clear water. The bonfire pit on the patio encouraged great family time and fun with lots of wood being provided. Needed a couple more chairs-one was melted and another was broke along the back. Appreciated a hose to wash dog after he swam in the lake. Flowers were pretty along the deck. The cottage is old. Sliding door in bedroom does not open/close. Carpet remnant was very worn with exposed underlayment. The oven never warmed up past preheat. Kitchen was well stocked for utensils. Bathroom was nice but shower curtain had a little black mold on it. The loft had very loose railings and was stuffy and hot. Our family enjoyed swimming and kayaking. Pontoon was not available for rent which was a huge disappointment. Big fishermen couldn’t get out on water to fish. The sunsets were beautiful!

Lovely cottage. Beautiful sunset. Weather was great, lake great for swimming and kayaking.

Nice cottage, lake and area. We enjoyed lots of walks, swimming and fishing. Walking distance to restaurant bar with good food. Perfect area for camp fire and s’mores. Yard games, kayaks and the float out in the water was perfect for sunbathing host was very responsive. We really enjoyed our vacation.

Wonderful property with a spectacular view

The pictures listed do not do the place justice for the lake view you have. The place is very clean and cozy. The bedrooms were very adorable and gave a great cabin feel. Beds are comfortable! My children really enjoyed the loft. The bathroom was very nice and the shower worked wonders after swimming in big bass lake. Their are fans available to use, but the a/c works amazing to cool down the place. They have availability of a working kitchen, coffee pot and lots of kitchen items. We really appreciated the charcoal grill outside which provided us yummy dinners to cook every night. We had campfires every night! Which was so fun to have. There is plenty of seating chairs outside around the fire pit, deck and boat dock. The boat dock was a lot of fun to take the kayaks out on the lake. My kids especially had fun with my that. An outdoor water hose was available to hose off my dog! A huge must. Very dog friendly, dog dishes, a dog bed is provided on site. You are walking distance to the local corner store, park for kids and the loca restaurant. Ludington is only 40 mins away!!! This was a dream vacation for my family. No one wanted to leave. The owners were so quick to respond to any question I had, a need or just anything in general. We will be back and can’t wait!!!

Vacation with a wedding thrown in there.

When we originally booked the property we were just going on vacation, but 3 weeks beforehand, we had decided to get married at the property overlooking the lake. The weather was a bit rainy but it did hold out long enough for us to get married on the dock down by the lake. Karen was nice enough to help with answering questions as for a photographer and even had a bottle of champagne waiting for us. We have talked about going back next year to celebrate our 1 year anniversary.

Excellent location

We enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The deck and patio were great for lounging and having a campfire with s'mores. We were glad that the property has 2 kayaks, and had a good time paddling around the lake. The water was plenty warm for swimming in June.

Great little cottage on a lake

The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to questions. Everything from booking to arriving and departing was a breeze. The cottage itself was just what I imagined and reminded me of my own childhood stays at a similar cottage om the lake. It's small and cozy, but just what we needed and wanted for our family vacation.

Neat, Clean and Comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. There were 7 of us and we all had a comfortable place to sleep. Amazing sunset viewing! The cottage was neat and clean and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We enjoyed an awesome campfire and cooked on the charcoal grill that was available. We also rented the pontoon we used to enjoy Big Bass Lake, it drove great!. Thank you for sharing your place with us. We would definitely rent this place again!

Comfy, quaint, lake-side cottage.

The owner promptly responded to my inquiries. The cottage was clean and had a great layout. My husband and I shared with my parents and there was enough separation for privacy. There's a cute fire pit and plenty of additional outside seating for enjoying lake views.
