A Beautiful Slice of Paradise
My husband and I stayed here and we were NOT disappointed. We wished we could have stayed here longer! The beds were so comfy, I actually contacted Jessica and asked where she bought them from. The house (and view) were amazing! We are looking to go back and rent again with our grown kids. Thank You Jessica for sharing your property with us!

Nothing but positive comments about this beautiful, well-kept, cottage on the river/bay. Plenty of room for truck and trailer parking, along with more than ample boat dock space. Great people! Highly recommend their properties!

Loved Corky’s Cabin
We stayed the end of August and absolutely loved our stay at Cork’y’s Cabin. The house was so clean and super cute!! We loved having drinks each evening on the deck watching the boats!! Communication was great!! Our 1st time in Bay City and we really enjoyed it! Awesome bike trails, great hike in the State Park, loved the shops and antique stores, lots of pubs and breweries, close to Frankenmurth for a fun day trip! We loved our stay!!

Adorable vacation spot!
The house was exactly as we imagined …. But better. The open windows let the outside in. Being on the river was so relaxing! Loved watching the boats coming in and out of the bay. Decor was fresh and new. Perfect for a couple or smaller group. Bring your fishing poles, kayaks, and boat (if you have one) for this location to get the most out of the stay. Will rent again!

10 Star property!
I can't say enough good things about this home. It's very clean and has been well cared for. The location is quaint, quiet and located 5-10 minutes from shopping and restaurants. It's steps from the river and has the most wonderful views. The owners are very helpful. Would highly recommend and would rate this 10 stars if that was an option.

Wonderful home and property
My sister and I stayed here with our 87 year old mother. When you first walk in everything smells so fresh and clean. Everything and this property looks brand new. We spent most of our time on the covered porch in the rocking chairs. It rained quite a bit while we were there but it didn’t even matter because we had that beautiful porch. Absolutely love being right on the river. We will come back here in a heartbeat and would recommend it to everyone.

Great spot on the bay
Has a great view of the bay and all the boats going in and out. Everything is up to date and above average. Nice neighborhood. Was able to fish off the back deck. Caught everything but a walleye, but they were out of season.

Amazing decor..and so many windows! Wish we had more time to experience more outside time on the spacious porch. The bees liking our wine on that was the only problem. 🙂 Was surprised to find bunk beds were full size..nice!

Wonderful Lake House !
We loved our stay at the house. It was easy to find and it had everything we needed. It was very nice to have the open concept Kitchen, Dining and living room. It made it look so large. Loved the views from inside and on the porch. We would stay here again.
