Great place to relex.The lake is crystal clear and warm. Highly recommend this place. The House is cozy and clean. Has everything you need tor relax.
Another great stay at this house (2nd time). Wonderful house for our family. Plan to go again in a year or two. Kids range 1 to 6. They love the beach toys provided, the bunk beds, my daughter learned she loved going paddle boarding with mom on the provided boards, and my son loves all the fans (he is obsessed with them, good thing they are in the main and bedrooms). Great weather and great time. Only note is the guy renovating the house next store. Bit loud late a night demoing and left the exterior lights on one night that shined into the bedrooms (get some back out drapes for that side maybe?) Also he had a chocolate lab that was often not leashed. (My daughter is scared of dogs). Thankfully he was only there 2 of the days we were there. And know that is outside of the owners control. (Last year we lucked out and neither neighbor was there all week). Thanks again for renting out your house again to us!
George & Colleen's cottage is the perfect place for a family getaway to the lake. This was our second year at the cottage and we've already booked again for next year. The home is well maintained and has all the amenities you'd need. The lake is nice and shallow for young swimmers and beautifully clear and quiet (not too busy). We love staying here and can't wait for the next trip we have scheduled! Highly Recommended!
Great lake house! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to do a family vacation on the lake. It is perfect for young children with shallow water and an unlimited amount of water toys. Thanks for a great trip!
This has to be one of my favorite trips. We had an amazing view from the house and on the beach, we even heard Loons. The water was so clear. The house had all the amenities we needed(minus towels and sheets). The owners are super sweet and very responsive. We went to several lighthouses, beaches and even Mackinac Island. We will definitely be returning!
We loved our stay! The water was so clear the cabin was clean and nice. There were fans in every room which made the warmer days more enjoyable. The owner was super nice and we would love to come stay again!!
This was our second year at this location. Except for some minor glitches it was a great week. Would highly recommend this place if your looking for a peaceful but beautiful getaway.
Our week at George & Colleen’s cottage was the perfect vacation for our family of three. The lake is perfect for little kids with a great beach and lots of water and sand toys to keep us all entertained. The cottage was great as well. It stayed perfectly cool throughout the week and had great amenities - dishwasher and washer & dryer were available for our use and everything we needed in the kitchen. I would highly recommend.
We really enjoyed the close location to Elk Rapids. The lake was perfect for swimming with a nice shallow sandy bottom. The beach toys were a great bonus.
