We booked this cottage for a place to stay before the Mackinac Bridge walk. It was just what we needed for me, my husband and our adult son.

Absolutely beautiful lake. Clean cozy cottage. Be aware that you will share the outdoor space, firepit, kayaks, etc with whoever rents the other cottage. We had a large family take over the outdoor space, so it was awkward and uncomfortable. We were away most days seeing the sights and it felt like we were intruding when we returned each afternoon

Stay was nice but the lake was the gem. Cabin was not cleaned in advance of our stay. All other descriptions of property was accurate.

Hi Melissa, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that is 100% ready for their stay, so we take the cleanliness of our properties seriously! We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
-Our cleaning staff had the incorrect date for your arrival, which caused the oversight.
-Once we were informed of the issue, the cleaning staff addressed it within a few hours.
-We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this caused and are implementing measures to ensure this does not happen again.
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review!
While vacationing, we prefer to stay off the grid from the attractions, but like to be close enough to have quick access. We loved this cabin! It was clean and cozy with a beautiful view. We looked forward to arriving back to the cabin nightly following our adventures to cook dinner in the grill, relax lakeside and enjoy the view. If we visit the area again, we’ll definitely book here.
