The cottage was cozy and had everything that one would need. Well equipped kitchen. Nice screened in porch with a view of the lake. Bathroom has been newly remodeled and is clean. The shower is small because there was not a lot of space to work with.

Location, location, location! It's been a few weeks and I'm still thinking about waking up and going out on the lake with the provided kayaks. It was perfect, and a memory I'll cherish. The cottage is vintage 1960s down to the appliances and knotty pine paneling. Lots of mosquitoes (we visited a week after heavy rains) but they provided bug spray too. All in all, it was lovely. Thinking about next summer...

Debbie is an excellent host. We enjoyed the lake view immensely, and proximity to the U. of M. bio station, state parks, and beaches.You're almost in the UP, so there is no air conditioning. Nice fans, and wonderful jalousie windows that give cross ventilation. Just mentioning the no AC because some have grown to believe they need it. Temperatures averaged about 60 at night, though warm and humid during the day when we were there. Stargazing on the deck was a highlight. Plenty of loon activity.Kitchen not only has plenty of dishes, but also a lot of spices.All the doors and screens were very tight, so zero mosquitoes invaded. It's a big year for them.About a half hour drive to the beautiful beaches and dunes north of Cross Village on Lake Michigan. Roughly the same time to the Dark Sky Park up near the Straits. 25 minutes to Mackinaw City. Entrance to Bio Station and Gorge Trail were maybe 4 minute drive.Mattresses were good, but we're accustomed to airbnbs that cost less and have outstanding mattresses. So that was a bit of a downside.
