Nice long weekend getaway

Perfect for a short getaway. This place has everything we needed and right on a quiet little lake. This was our second stay; our experience last time brought us back for another visit.

Relaxing Getaway

Cottage was very cozy with a lot of special touches! Connie was so friendly and helpful! My wife and I were looking for something relaxing and that’s exactly what we got! Spent many hours sitting on the deck enjoying the beautiful views! Neighbors were very friendly and quiet. Most of the time we didn’t even know anyone else was around! We will definitely be back!

Bad Race Great Stay

Connie was great welcoming my wife and me to the cottage. The gravel race was tough but the peaceful cottage was just what we need to relax and recover in peace. We hope to stay there next year if Connie will have us.

Perfect weather, loved using the deck during evening hours (wasps during the day, but they weren't super aggressive, just active). Perfect place to get away for 3 or 4 days. Connie was very nice as well!

Winter Retreat Stay

I rented the cottage for a month as a creative retreat and work space. It was the perfect place to enjoy a bit of silent retreat time, especially during the winter months. Connie was incredible to work with. Highly responsive in communication and the small issues that arose. It was a great stay and I would recommend to friends.

Relaxing getaway

We enjoyed our time here and especially appreciated that we could bring our dog. The large deck that overlooks the lake is a very relaxing place to catch some sun and to watch sunsets. It’s a nice lake for kayaking and fishing. The owner was very helpful and provided us with all of the information we needed.

Relaxing quiet peaceful

We needed a quiet vacation, my wife had major heart surgery exactly one year ago, and my great granddaughter wanted to come on vacation with us she is almost 5, she so wanted to go swimming but this really isn’t a swimming lake, but she also loves fishing the one thing that made this trip was the awesome fishing right off the dock. We had a blast catching and releasing bass, blue hill and perch, are only road trip was to springport for ice cream once a day, would stay again, the deer are all over the place and meet to watch thank you Connie for having us we will see you next year.

Disappointment at best

We planned to stay at this cottage with our 3 children and dog. We were happy that they allowed dogs! The woman met me there. Upon arriving the driveway was too muddy to park in. (I was never informed of this). I parked across the street, and met connie inside. The house seemed good, aside from the trim missing and covered with duct tape and part of the side of the counter falling off. We talked for maybe 5 min and she left. I then brought my children and dog in. When I further examined the place, I noticed it was very dusty and my son and I both were having a hard time breathing. My son has nonverbal autism, epilepsy and an immune condition. I opened up all the windows but it didnt get better, only worse when the heat kicked on. So we had no choice but to leave. While we were there about 30 min,my 15m old spilled some chips.i could only locate a vaccum so I cleaned them up the best I could before leaving but there were some crumbs on the floor. We left and I kindly explained to connie why we had to leave. She said that she had just cleaned, which surprised me. And that she wouldnt be giving us our money back. Then,upon finding the chips she threatened not to give us our deposit back. Very rude and condescending. Anyway after hanging it over my head she finally gave us the deposit. I wouldnt reccomend this property. It is not nearly as clean as it is in the picture.

It was perfect to stay at while coming home for my sister’s wedding with 2 dogs. We were able to have our own place away from both sets of parents but still super close to them to visit. It was the perfect little set up.

restful lake cottage

A wonderful cozy cottage on a quiet lake was exactly what I wanted and exactly what I got. The house was clean and cute. Kitchen was adequately stocked with lots of bowls and cups of varying sizes, a few pots and pans, spices and a few pantry staples. The bedroom is just big enough for the bed and one suitcase on the small dresser. We made use of the firepit, grill, boat dock, Netflix and AC, although it was too hot outside to enjoy the deck. Location is private and peaceful away from traffic. Loved the cottage, fishing, and relaxing. Perfect for a couple or small family.

perfect spot! Wonderful people

We stayed for 2 weeks early Sept for my son’s wedding. The place was perfect for the 2 of us and our fur baby! Owners were wonderful responded quickly to questions always happy to assist if needed. The cottage was clean and well stocked. Everything worked perfect and we had everything needed to live comfortable for 2 weeks. Because of the wedding we didnt get to enjoy the lake as much as we would have liked. Would definately stay here again

Great deck and dog friendly

Serenity now was perfect for what we needed/wanted- a place on the water where we could take our first family getaway with our 6 month old and 2 dogs. The home had everything we needed and was definitely dog friendly (the couch and rug had existing dog hair on then when we got there, again dog friendly!). The deck was great for looking over the water. Our boxer mix loved going swimming out back but the humans stayed out of the water. I think it would have been fine to swim and there were lots of people swimming a few doors down but it was just a little too murky for me at that time. Nice getaway!

A great stay!!

This cottage on Narrow Lake is everything advertised and more. It is a great place to go and spend some time out at the lake and still close enough to civilization to have everything you need. Thad and Connie are very responsive and ready to take care of any issues that may arise. We were able to swim in lake, kayak (provided with the rental), and fish. It was a really relaxing stay and I would recommend it to anyone who would like a nice quiet family get away.

About the host

Hosted by Thad and Connie

Host profile image
The winters are long in Michigan and our summer days and nights on the lake are cherished. Since we must work to pay for our get-away, on the days we can't be there, we have decided to open it up for others to enjoy with their families. We hope you can find an open spot on the calendar that works for your vacation plans.

Why they chose this property

It’s a beautiful and serene spot we hope you enjoy as much as we do. Narrow Lake / Springport is located right in the heart of Michigan. Tucked away from the noise of cities and highways, Serenity Now cottage is a place to get away from it all. Take a look at the photos and picture yourself on the expansive deck with a cocktail while the sun sets. A kayak ride to the Narrows to visit the herons and swans is my most favorite way to spend a day.

What makes this property unique

Narrow Lake is a 93-acre lake, large enough for water recreation, boating, jet skiing, water skiing, kayaking, and canoeing. The no-wake zone, known as the Narrows, is a serene spot perfect for fishing. A public boat launch is located on the opposite side of the lake from Serenity Now cottage. Renters are welcome to bring their own boats and dock them right in front of the cottage. We have a spot across from the cottage where you can park your boat trailer.

Serenity Now cottage is a sweet and quaint cottage off the beaten path yet close enough to towns and attractions. This is not a Hilton with marble sinks and connoisseur service, it’s a small, clean family cottage with most of the comforts of home and lots of outdoor fun.
