About this property

Beautiful, cozy cabin on the lake

Come, enjoy our cozy cabin on Doc and Tom Lake. We have fantastic views, enjoy watching the Eagles soar overhead, listen to the loons call and watch them along with the many different type of ducks. Spend the day fishing and enjoying the tranquility of our bay or enjoy the all sports lake activities. The lake offers great fishing for pike, bass, crappie, and various pan fish.

We have a beautiful beach that is a great place for kids to play, swim, or just hang out.

We are only 2.5 hours from the Novi / Northville area, 1/2 hour from Cadillac, and 1.5 hours from Traverse City, also only 1/2 hour north of Mt. Pleasant / Soaring Eagle Casino. From late September to the end of October you can enjoy the spectacular fall colors. Play golf at the many golf courses in the area, boat, kayak, water ski on the fabulous lake. Hike, bike, snowmobile or off road on the extensive ORV trails in the area. There are several ski lodges in the area where you can enjoy skiing or snowboarding for the day before you come back to enjoy the cozy cabin.

The cabin has 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other has two queen beds, one full bath, a loft with a comfy queen futon, enough room to sleep 6 - 8 adults comfortably. There is a full kitchen with pots/pans, utensils, and dishes. Bed linens and towels are included.

Come for a long weekend or stay for awhile. Spend some quality time with your family or enjoy all the beauty Michigan has to offer by taking a quiet walk in the woods or a serene boat ride around the lake and many channels. We can't wait for you to come and enjoy our cozy cabin!

Great house on Doc & Tom

This house was great for us right on the lake with a beach and a pontoon. The owners are very nice and helpful. The deck is a good sitting area with plenty of space. Beds are comfortable. I would recommend for a peaceful stay with fantastic views.

Great spot!

We enjoyed our stay! We loved having a boat! Our kids caught tons of fish, enjoyed exploring all the little islands on the lake (one has a rope swing into the water!) and had great quality time together. There’s a little town about 10 min away to get the basics if you need anything. Owners were so friendly! Highly recommend for a quiet getaway.

Cozy and Quiet

Beautiful cottage in a very quiet part of the lake. Enjoyed morning coffee on the deck with a beautiful view of the lake. The cottage was very clean with everything that you would need for your stay. The owners live next door and were available for any questions. We brought our own boat and the dock worked out great. Highly recommend!

Amazing Weekend

The property was great! Kids had so much fun, and so did the adults. We relaxed by the private beach, played with the provided kayaks, paddle board, and paddle boat and had a bunch of fun on the pontoon boat as well! Owners were attentive and responded right away! The lake was quiet and everyone around was so nice. I didn’t hear an “Mom, I’m bored,” the entire weekend!

We all had a great time at this lake house. The hosts were easy to get ahold of and they were great at answering all of my questions! The house could use air conditioning but if you leave the windows open it was fine.

Can’t wait to go back

Great property that comes with a pontoon boat, my kids and I had an amazing week of fishing, swimming, and relaxing. The owners were next door during the weekend and were very helpful with questions about the property and the area, not intrusive at all. We had a great week here and hope to go back soon! Thanks for having us!

Great time, fun fishing, we are already talking about coming back.

We had a great time fishing. We caught sunfish, bluegill, pike, base, a bowfish. The only keepers were the sunfish. The pike were all to small. Loved fishing on the lake. Not many people were on the lake. So we had the option of fishing anywhere we wanted to try. We tried a lot of spots and had fun just about evey place we stopped the boat. The lake was treated during our stay and we couldn't swim for 2 of the day but still fished. The only complaint would be the amount of goose feces. I understand that geese are a huge problem but I saw no attempt at keeping them off the property. I did observe others on the lake at least making an attempt at keeping their property free of the geese.

Great family getaway!

We had an amazing week. It was a quiet lake with opportunities for the kids to fish and swim. It was also a calm lake and you could see beautiful sun rises and sunsets. The yard was a great size so there is plenty of room to play catch and other games. There is a large and roomy deck with nice furniture. The home is extremely nice with plenty of space. My sons enjoyed sleeping in the balcony area, and the kitchen and bathroom are spacious and very nice looking. We even were able to use the pontoon, pedal boat and kayak's. Couldn't ask for more!

Nice lake getaway

House was nice size, clean, and comfortable for 5 people. However, our only complaint was that that the main floor was comfortable due to a window air conditioner in bedroom to keep main floor cool but upstairs was miserable hot and made it difficult to sleep due to no air conditioning. We have terrible seasonal allergies and can not have windows constantly open and assumed when we saw the listing say air conditioning it was for the whole house. The view was beautiful and we had a fun time out on the pontoon and kayaks fishing and exploring the lake. The property owners were nice and easy to deal with.

Another great time at the Cozy Cabin

We were looking for a girls weekend away to hang out, play in the snow, watch movies, play games and hang out, we opted to return to this rental because we had such a great experience last year and we were not disappointed. The property was clean, the owners are friendly and communication was easy. We’ll be back in the future for sure.

Everything we hoped it would be

Very well kept home on a beautiful lake in Clare County. The home is spacious, open, and cozy . There is a town about 20 minutes that offers a grocery store, pharmacy, and a few restaurant options. The neighboring homes were quiet and everyone kind of keeps to themselves. We loved the fishing and caught several varieties of Pan fish, pike, and bass. We met the owners briefly on our way out (they live next door) and they were very nice. It was cold and rainy during our stay but there are many accommodations that are provided that we would of utilized in warmer weather such as kayaks, pontoon and a sandy beach area. We loved the fire pit as well. They do have a gas grill on a very nice patio overlooking the water. My wife and I drove about 45 minutes to find some good hiking trails in the Cadillac area. The owner has equipped the house well with everything you need to feel at home. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. P.S. - 15 minutes away is a place called the Buckhorn Saloon. If your craving pizza, there’s is AMAZING and I’m a harsh critic!

Fantastic Visit!

The property was just perfect for our father/son fishing trip! We were looking specifically for a lakeside cottage with an available boat, and for whatever reason this listing was quite far down in the search results; we're so glad we dug for it, it is truly a jewel in the rough! The cottage is quite roomy, on a beautiful lake, with a well-apportioned kitchen, and it would have happily served 6-8 people. Highly recommended, I'm sure we'll be back!

While the weather didn't cooperate, we had an amazing week. We were able to take out the boat, the lake was quiet and relaxing. We took out the kayaks and paddleboats and enjoyed some bon fires. We did not have much luck fishing, but enjoyed trying. My kids are already asking to go back.

Host profile image
We live in South Lyon, MI. We have 4 children, two are married with children of their own. We all love going up to the lake to relax and enjoy fishing and swimming.

Why they chose this property

We bought our house on Doc & Tom in 2013. We enjoy the lake. It is so relaxing, we enjoy the fishing and the quiet bay our house is located in. It is only 2 1/2 hours away from South Lyon, this gives us the perfect opportunity to get away without using a whole day to get here.
