Enjoy beautiful sunsets at a Lake Side Cottage

Great discount for fall and winter visit .
There are 2 bathrooms and 2 bedrooms upstairs (bunkbed and a queen size bed) and two living rooms with amazing views. On the ground floor there is another bathroom and 2 additional bedrooms with a king size trundle and a separate room with a double bed. The house is built on a hill so it isn’t best for those who have difficulties navigating stairs. Whether you're looking for a serene escape or an exciting family getaway, this cozy cottage has everything you need for a memorable stay. There is lakefront access with a fire pit, pergola, and dock to use in the summer. Located close to Ann Arbor, small towns, vineyards, antique stores, nice restaurants and a national park. Feel free to reach out to us during your stay - we're happy to suggest local spots to check out or answer any questions you have. We are on a private lake, which means that the area is a bit calmer and quieter than other surrounding lakes but sadly there is no launch for guests boats. We have 3 kayaks as well as two paddle boards available for rental if requested early. The water is shallow by the dock and perfect for wading.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a safe and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Enjoyed everything about the property I really do wish it was accessible for your own fishing boat renting a place on the water and not being able to bring your boat is kind of a downer overall we had a great time

Host was very kind and available. Kitchen well stocked. Bedrooms comfortable. The home could use some light maintenance and a new shower curtain. Beautiful view of the lake. Quiet neighborhood. Lots of water sports equipment available at the house. Good solid place to stay.

The house was great. The location was great. The only thing that wasn’t and it wasn’t anybody’s fault, but mother nature was the weather. It didn’t get nice and sunny until we left but we would definitely stay again. Thank you.

There were dead bugs all along walls in lower two bedrooms that we removed. The access to the cottage was very challenging for a person with mobility issues which was not stated on the website. The Internet address and password that were sent the day before arrival were incorrect. The view and the lake was beautiful. Nice cottage area and we enjoyed visiting the wineries.
