Great cottage/property

We really enjoyed our stay. We thought the cottage was right on the beach, but it’s a short walk to a shared beach amongst the other cottages/homes on the property, but it wasn’t an issue for us. There is no A/C either if that is something you require. Again it wasn’t a problem to us. Overall it was exactly how it was described and we enjoyed the cabin.

Cozy rugged upnorth cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. We used to stay at this very same cabin back in the summers of the 1990s when our children were small. We had four adults and one toddler with us. The cabin was a good size for five people. The beach is nice. There were plenty of dishes and utensils in the kitchen. We used the charcoal grill several times to cook meals. I would recommend this cabin for smaller families. If you like to live fancy, this will not be a cabin for you. We were comfortable, but it was very hot several days and the fans had a difficult time keeping up. But Michigan summers are always like this so come prepared. It's a fun place to stay!!!

3 day getaway

It was exactly what we had hoped for-only better. The cottage has a rustic decor, with all the modern appliances and conveniences. Located on a beautiful lake. It was clean and the cost was very affordable. We hope to stay here again in the future if possible.

The Cozy Cottage is very cute. Lake is right out front! Great Location.

Cottage is cute. Lake is just past a few homes out front. You can swim, boat, kayak, etc. There is a long dock and a deck to jump off of. Bunch of chairs to sit at in the sand. Torch Lake is only about 15 minutes away. Super clear water. But, the Bellaire Lake at the cottage is nice too. Sand at the bottom of water is super nice. Not a lot of rocks, didn't see any seaweed. Super Clean! Full size grocery store about 15 minute drive and then you can drive 40 minutes to shop and site see in Traverse City. Super Nice area. Would definitely book again.
