Beautiful house, very clean

We have stayed at numerous VRBO homes and this was a favorite for sure! Beautifully decorated, extremely clean and situated in the perfect place! The outdoor patio and fire pit was an added bonus each day! We had breakfast on the patio and a fire each evening. Thank you for sharing you home with us!

Lovely space

This home has a lovely decor and well-stocked kitchen. Huge TV and lovely backyard. We enjoyed the nice coffeemaker and owner-provided beans! Great communication with the thoughtful owners. It's set back on a somewhat busy road but has excellent windows so it wasn't an issue.

Best Long Weekend Spot

Recently visited Friday Fowls Cottage for the first time. We were up in Michigan for a nearby Sprint Triathlon, 2 couples. This cottage was perfect for our adventures after the Triathlon. Very close to a Lake Michigan public beach and many local foodie spots. Friday Fowls Cottage has 2 very comfy bedrooms and an updated full bath. The outdoor shower is also a great addition after a day at the beach or sunbathing on the backyard patio. Wish we had time to utilize the fire pit, supplied with much firewood. A must-stay if you are in the area.

Lovely House

We had a wonderful time is this beautiful and well maintained cottage. It was even better than the pictures. Just a quick 5 minute drive to the nearest beach. I would highly recommend to any friend wanting to stay by Lake Michigan and would definitely return again!
