We had a lovely time - it was a perfect location - easy to get on and off the freeway and a straight shot to our family. Weren’t able to take advantage of the lake access, but the view was beautiful. Loved how pet friendly it was! Thank you!

This place was good for the price. Amenities are as shown, and it was easy to get to and from. The place has a few quirks, but nothing affecting the stay. We weren’t able to get to the beach across the road, but it looked nice. The owner was very accommodating, and we would stay here again.

This was a comfy, cozy little cottage right across the street from Whitmore Lake. The view was wonderful. Walking up to the park was easy. Dee’s ice cream was right up the street. Detroit was 40 minutes away, so convenient for our needs. Ann Arbor is also convenient. Brighton was less than 15 minutes away. Though it was a couple of hours, it was also convenient to Port Austin (Turnip Rock) and Cass City (Sanilac petroglyphs). My husband and I took advantage of the fire pit and found the kitchen had all the amenities you’d need to stay in and make dinner for yourself. The shower stall was a little tricky, hot was on the right, then moving to the left turned it cold, but once we figured that out, everything was perfect. A truly lovely little place.
