Cancer survival celebration!!

We went to a concert at Interlochen and spent the weekend celebrating the ending of my cancer treatment and my cancer free diagnosis. This place was a perfect getaway. We cant wait to come back again.

Soccer weekend

Loved the peacefulness of the lake and the proximity of the house to the gazebo and lake. It's a tight fit for 4 adults, but worked well for the 3 of us. Others had commented about the strong perfume smells - we would agree. The onliy negative to this property was the strong strong fragrance - from the wall plug in to the sheets/blankets - everything was scented. Hosts were super responsive and house was super cute. We had a great time!

Adorable Cottage for Family of 4 getaway

First visit to Michigan and so glad we rented this adorable cottage. Clean-well stocked-easy to communicate to host-pictures are accurate and loved the location of lake to cottage. We had the best week and house was perfect allowing us to explore all the tourist attractions around Traverse City. We are a family of 4 (2 teens) super comfy all week and would rent or recommend to family for future vacations.

Relaxing and peaceful

The setting is idyllic. We loved sitting outside eating BBQ dinner and watching the sun set over the lake. We made multiple kayak trips on the lake and found lots to see and do in the area. The house is compact but very well laid out and functional. The hosts made us feel very welcome.

Very cozy lake cottage

We really enjoyed our stay here. It's close enough to everything to have easy access to everything the area has to offer in a short drive. The cottage is small, but it has everything you could need and is truly cozy. It was also more than enough space for our small family of four. You have access to a small shared beach right behind the property and our son spent most of his time playing there. We would definitely stay here again.

Lakeside getaway

This was a second visit to this property, in the springtime just prior to the busy summer season. It’s small but well appointed and very well kept. The location is convenient to downtown Traverse City a few miles away, but quiet and relaxed. I would recommend it to small groups or a family. The hosts are proactive and friendly. Thanks for another pleasant stay.

Charming & Peaceful

We so enjoyed our short stay at this charming, peaceful property. Silver Lake is a large, crystal clear body of water and so close to Traverse City. Loons called in the morning and at nighttime, too. This family-friendly property was perfect for our needs. Thank you, Lori, for your excellent communication with us and for operating such a great cottage at a lovely location!

Wonderful Stay

This cute little cottage met all our expectations. My husband & I travel to Traverse City every summer & wanted to stay away from the traffic & crowds along the hotel/resort thoroughfare & this property was perfect. It was a short drive to the downtown area. This cottage has a beautiful view of the lake, although it was pretty cool during our stay so we weren’t able to enjoy the outdoor amenities. Kevin & Teresa are perfect hosts & all communications were very timely.

Beautiful cozy cottage, perfect location.

My wife and I decided to have a long weekend getaway. The cottage is right on the lake, it has awesome views of the sunset. The grounds are well kept, the gazebo overviews the whole lake, so it was nice enjoying a drink or a meal right at sunset. The downtown TC was only 10-12 minutes away so it was fine for us. The cottage itself had everything we need it, and it felt cozy and comfortable. I would like to come back here again with family so we can all enjoy a nice relaxing weekend.

Beautiful Property and Cozy

We really enjoyed our stay, and the property is beautiful. The beach is wonderful and lake access is right out your back door. The cabin is cozy and it comfortably fit our family of three, but I believe it would be a tight squeeze with four or more. The only thing that would have made the trip a 5 star is a washer/dryer. Unfortunately, the weather was bad our first day, and we got soaked at our soccer tournament, and we came back before our second game and had no way to get her uniform dry. Again, fantastic stay and beautiful location.

Cockroaches

We found multiple cockroaches in this property. We caught one and left it for the owner to see. We thought the place was nice otherwise and the community area is great for kids. We wish we didn’t bring cockroaches home with us. The air conditioner is loud and cumbersome- sitting in the middle of the kitchen. The owner has not responded to us regarding compensation for the cockroaches- we threw out anything with small holes that couldn’t be washed. We spent hours bagging things so that we wouldn’t bring them into our home. We ended up finding a live cockroach in our daughters jumper.

Everything you'd want for vacation at the lake!

We have spent a "girls' weekend" on a northern Michigan lake every summer for 20 years. This was the best place we have rent! It matched all of our requirements: Cottage was right on the lake so we could open the curtains and see the water each morning and watch the lake turn to glass in the evenings. There was a sandy beach to plop our beach chairs next to the water and the lake was sandy and clear for wading and floating. There was also a brick patio area with very nice lounge chairs if you preferred sitting close but not on the beach. The large gazebo was perfect for sitting out of the sun and enjoying a cup of coffee or lunch while meeting folks from other cabins there. We got a couple tips for exceptional restaurants from talking with others at the gazebo and bon fire pit. It is beautiful and tranquil yet located only 10 minutes from downtown T.C., salons, shopping center and groceries. Close to other attractions for great day trips, including kayaking or climbing the dunes. The cottage itself was clean and cozy. It had everything we needed (except bath towels- you provide your own). There are even racks in the bedrooms for your suit cases. The shower was great! We are making reservations for next year!

Great cottage on Lake

We had a great time! The cottage was very clean and had anything you would need to be comfortable. The beach area is spacious and even though you share it with other families, there is enough room and different areas, so that you are able to have privacy. We will be back!

A Must-Stay!

Between the cottage, grounds, location, and the owners, this property is one you won't want to pass up. The owners, Kevin and Teresa, are fantastic. They were kind, accomodating, and timely in their communications. The cottage itself has everything you might need, including labeled instructions most everywhere if you're unsure how to turn lights on or work the thermostat/AC. The property is beautifully kept and the beach access perfect if you're a water lover. When renting, I've learned that clear-is-kind, and this rental fits the bill. We will be back! If this is available, snag it before someone else does!

Lakeside retreat

We stayed here for a short weekend trip. The location is excellent, next to a lake with beautiful views. There is a small beach and a gazebo. This is a few miles outside of Traverse City, so easy to get to places, yet it is still quiet at night. The property is older yet well maintained, everything was clean and ready to go at arrival. Everything was as expected.
