OAK COTTAGE - Lakefront on Thayer Lake in Alden, MI with WiFi, AC

The cabin was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. Lovely location right on Thayer Lake with well-cared for grounds. Check-in was easy with info sent via email. Overall, really great spot.

Such a cute and clean cabin! The owners have obviously put a lot of work and time into these. Great to have your own firepit with firewood for sale on property. Loved using the kayaks. Beds are comfy, great water pressure, modern appliances. Highly recommend!

The cabin was awesome and where it is located is perfect on the lake and there is a lot to do. My kids and I had a great stay it is a very nice cabin but the listing said it sleeps 6 and has a futon that was not in the cabin when we were there.

We stayed in the Cedar cabin over a decade ago (different owners) and we were thrilled to experience the same peaceful setting of Thayer Lake with modern upgrades. We enjoyed kayaking and canoeing, swimming, bonfires, and hiking nearby. Saw a family a loons. Not many fish this trip but still fun. Very family friendly. We appreciated the puzzles, games, and kids books! Bring camp chairs for the front room in Oak Cabin. It’s great for gear storage. Enjoyed our stay!

It was just ok. Definitely not worth the money we spent for 2 nights!!

Easy, clean, beautiful, relaxing, and stress-free

My Fiance and I stayed here and had a fantastic time. It was extremely clean, cozy, and we really enjoyed exploring the near by towns. Definitely would recommend staying here and will stay again in the future!

The Oak Cottage was the cutest little getaway for my husband and I’s anniversary. It was so clean, the hosts were kind and easy to get ahold of, and the lake view was the cherry on top! Will definitely be back.

Amazing get away place for our 25th wedding anniversary. Just whatever needed.

This was one of our most favorite VRBO‘s! The owners had swept the decor to reflect the fall season, and we loved it very much. It inspired us to include grilled apples and cinnamon with all of our home cooked meals. There were even fall flavored coffees available for the Keurig! The trip was just the two of us celebrating our anniversary - we brought a boat on trailer with road bikes. There was more than enough parking for our truck and trailer. We used the rowboat one evening and it was lovely. From this location, we rode biked a big circle trail around torch lake, another day around Lake. Charlevoix and another ride up to Petoskey and back. It was fantastic! The location was perfect. It was super quiet and so peaceful in the morning to wake up and see the water.The size was just right for the two of us, and we used the extra bedroom as our sort of walk-in closet and gear storage.I would recommend this cabin/cottage to everyone! Thank you

Oak cottage is cozy and updated but there are some structural issues with the roof/ceiling that concerned us. The bathtub had a large crack in the bottom. There should be grab bars to prevent falling. We did not sleep in the main bedroom because there is no way to use a CPAP machine because the dresser is at the foot of the bed. For most people this would not be an issue. Everything else was great.

The cottage faced Thayer Lake. Public small access to Torch Lake in a couple areas that were close to the cottage. The cottage is close to the neighbor cottages.It is a perfect location for adults.

Beautiful and clean but a little smaller than anticipated. Had only 3 chairs at the table for a house for 4. But on the lake, cozy, cute and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Cute cabin on the lake. Thayer Lake is very quiet. Very close to Torch Lake. Very peaceful with lots to do in the area.

We had a great time! The cottage was in a lovely quiet and secluded area and we were really able to decompress sitting on the porch and hearing the loons. I would consider staying here again and enjoying Thayer lake more casually.Our only complaint would have been that the cottage did not Dehumidify very well. A damp towel took a couple days to dry out even with fans running because the cool AC air was still very humid.

We absolutely love this little Cottage. Our favorite part was the enclosed porch. Great for drinking your coffee in the morning and watching the sunrise.

The cottages have been very nicely updated. Very clean. Beds are very comfortable. Bathrooms are nice. Kitchen is small, but adequate.

Loved this cabin. Very clean and perfect for our stay. We utilized both the rowboat and fire pit. Kitchen stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals with. Really enjoyed the view from the enclosed porch which felt like an extension of the inside. Very quiet and relaxing. We would definitely stay here again.

renovations are great

Great little cabin on Thayer lake. Everything was recently updated so it was new and clean. We enjoyed our stay and taking the kayaks out on the water.

Relaxing and comfortable stay at Thayer Lake. Everything you needed was right there. Nice Lake to chill out and enjoy cold ones by the fire pit.

The cottage was adorable and my boys loved being able to walk right out and fish on the dock. Rachel was quick to reply with any questions I had and they provided a binder full of suggestions on things to do while you are there.
