Nice lake

Nice quiet lake, and home. On a dead end street, so not a lot of vehicles, or homes. Very relaxing. The host, Shann, was very friendly, and accomodating. Fun place to stay.

Cozy, Quiet and Comfortable

This little lakeside apartment/cottage was exactly the space we needed for our time in Michigan. All the creature comforts of home situated in a super quiet, wooded setting near the lake. Host, Shann was easy-going, flexible and very accommodating. We needed a place that offered space for my daughter and I to relax and spread out a bit but also to host a small family gathering. Shann's place was perfect!

Location is nice

We stayed between Christmas and New Years so I cant say a lot about the lake or property as we used it as a place to sleep. If you like hard beds this will be comfortable for you. The shelves were pretty bare of the normal essentials you find in a VRBO. Hair dryer was missing but thankfully the owner was upstairs and we were able to get one from her, that we kept in the unit. Quiet neighborhood. Heat was good.
