Bob is great to deal with, very responsive to all communication. Great location for a golf trip and everything was as advertised. Have already booked for next year!
It would be hard to find a place that size and location for a better price. Plenty of room inside and out for our family of adults.
Bob is always great to work with and available via text for any needs or questions.
Bob is a great host the only issue you we had was the dock was kinda short for the pontoon we rented but it worked. Will rent again we absolutely loved having a fire pit and kayaks and plenty of room for everyone
Location was perfect to play the Tree Tops golf courses. The property is at the north end of Otsego Lake and has a spectacular view. Comfortably fit our group of 10. Excellent communication with owner to stay informed.
We had a group of 5 adults and 9 children and this was a great place for us to relax, fish, grill, and hang out around the fire pit. The owner communicated well with us and checked on us when he heard there were storms that knocked out power at some homes in the area (we didn’t lose power). Thanks for a great stay, would definitely rent again.
Great stay on the north end of Otsego Lake! Very large rental with room to spread out. Quiet neighborhood. The only negative is that kids can’t swim in front of the cottage, but that is mentioned in the listing so we were expecting to go to the State park. Great rental!
Amazing host! Thoughtful, avaliable, a real joy.
The house was perfect for what we needed, the kayaks were terrific and added much fun to the weekend. We will definitely ve back
Bob is a great host. The home was very clean and perfect size for us (10 adults).
Location is everything, and this location is absolutely perfect for snowmobiling. The trail is literally right across the street. Very close to bars and restaurants as well.
Will definitely be staying here in the future again.
Our third year staying at the cottage and six old friends again very much enjoyed our stay. Bob is great at communicating before, during and after our time in Gaylord. Everything works, is clean and any issue, a phone call will resolve. We will be returning again next year. Thanks Bob!
Bob is very accommodating. It’s not ritzy but when you consider everything you get a lot for the money. I already booked next year for our 6th visit. The 2 separate living areas is great if you have 2 families or you want to give the kids one and you have your own private area. There’s no beach but the state and county parks are just a few miles away and are very nice. The boat launch is at the county park so it’s close. Shopping is close to all the big box stores and close to the small downtown stores. The fishing is good after you find the right spots and the lake is 5 miles long so a lot of opportunity for boating activities. Traverse city, Mackinac are not that far if you would like to make visits. Overall a good place at a good price !
Sleeping arrangements more than needed and worked well for our family. Great fire pit, everyone enjoyed the kayaks. More than needed of paper products and great selection of dishes. Wonderful laundry facilities.
Bob was fantastic to work with, start to finish. It was a peaceful weekend. Close enough to stores for convenience if you forgot anything, but tucked away so you feel out of the chaos. The property had more than enough room. We would definitely stay again.
Great rental on Otsego Lake! Large waterfront rental that sleeps many, kitchen well stocked. The only negative is no swimming in front of cottage, but that was noted in the listing.
