About this property

Unplug, Unwind, and Explore at Papa's Place.

  • Welcome to our lakefront cabin, a heartfelt throwback to Papa's place - where summer days stretched forever, fishing lines danced in the water, and evenings meant card games by lamplight. We've captured that classic cabin charm and paired it with the modern comforts you love. We have a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, smart TV's, keyless entry, and ring camera protection. Nestled right on the water's edge, this cabin invites you to slow down. Sip your morning coffee on the patio, listen to the loons call, or roast marshmallows by the fire pit. Whether you're reliving childhood memories or making brand new ones, this is the kind of place that feels like it's always been waiting for you.

This place has everything you need! Well stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, and 6 kayaks and a paddle boat! Both beds were very comfortable. I also loved the little extras like all the things I needed to make smores! I would love to come back again

Check in and then coming and go was very easy! Lots of necessities left in case we forgot or needed something! The views out the back were beautiful, kayaking was awesome, and walking around the half the lake equaled about 2.5 miles! Highly recommend- we will be back!

PaPa's place was just what we needed. The cottage was clean, well stocked and provided many extras such as options for single cup of coffee or full pot with coffee provided, beach towels, supplies for smores, firewood, game room, board games. The outdoor space was beautiful with a large patio with comfortable seating and a fire pit table or we could use the fire pit next to the lake. Kayaks and paddle boat available to enjoy the peaceful lake. The decor in the cottage was amazing. The host really thought out everything that would bring joy to the guest and all the little touches made our stay very memorable. Rebekah was very responsive and even checked in to make sure we were doing good during our stay. It is a great home base for Silver Sands Dunes, Ludington and Manistee. Would stay again and highly recommend.

Papa’s place was perfect for us. All the little extras was very nice, including slippers, snores stuff and candy by the bed. The game room was very nice as well. We didn’t get out on the water but there was plenty of life jackets and kayaks. The fire pit by the waterfront was just what I needed for my morning coffee. I hope to go back next year.

This place exceeded our expectations. Truly an amazing vacation with my 1 y/o, 5 y/o, and best friend. Clean, tidy, comfy rooms, and perfect layout with kiddos. Went on paddle boat and kayak. Very close to Ludington. We will be back.
