Very goog.
Our family/extended family had a wonderful week at the cottage. 4 adults, 3 kids and 1 teen. The cottage was very comfortable, we had plenty of room and didn’t feel on top of one another. The kitchen is beautiful, and perfect to cook in. It’s stocked with everything you could need. The view of the lake is stunning and peaceful. It was perfect for swimming/floating and fishing. Our kiddos fished for the first time and fell in love. We ended up going to buy all 3 their own poles. The location itself is more rural than we expected/are used to, but was also nice to just disconnect for a while. We made a few day trips 2ish hours to Crystal River (Glen Arbor) to kayak, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, we also went boating on Torch Lake. The cottage is well stocked, perfect location on the lake. Dean and Melissa are wonderful hosts, and very responsive before, during and after our stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home away from home with us. We will cherish all the memories we made.
We had a great week at Dean’s place! The cottage was well appointed and they were quick to address any questions or concerns we may have had! Beds were comfortable the water was hot and there weather was perfect! The owners rely on renters to clean up after themselves so do your part and leave it the way you found it. We even dusted and broomed off the exterior a bit. We fished enjoyed day trips, fishing off the dock and the fire. We saw eagles and loons right from the back yard! The cottage is on a small residential lake so do bring what you need ahead of arriving as the closest grocery is about 30mins away . Thanks for a great stay!
This was our first time at Lake George and this rental. It was great!!! The kids had a fabulous time and barely played on their tablets. The pictures make the rental look larger than it is but we all had more than enough room with the actual size. Overall it was best place we stayed at in a while. We would be happy to rent this house again.
This Lake George cottage was very nice. It was decorated very cute. It was clean and offered many conveniences. Loved having a dishwasher as well as a washer and dryer. The beds were adequate and comfortable for most. Hey cannot please everyone. We were able to dock two boats but the fishing was slow. Caught several species but all were undersized. It was too bad that 2 days before we arrived they tried to kill the weeds in the lake. I am sure the owner had no control over this. One downside was that we needed to park a half of block a way from the cottage. Oh well we got some exercise. One suggestion I might have for the owner would be to pay a local person to put the garbage at the road. The garbage cans were so close to the road, we didn’t move them on the road. Therefore the garbage was not picked up. Not serious but if a local did it there would not have been any confusion. We may not rent this property again, only because we like to fish and the lake just wasn’t big enough.
it was very relaxing and felt very private as we had only neighbors on one side whom were super nice. our only complaint was finding out that we had to tote our linens for beds and towels etc finding sheets to fit all the different sized beds at the last minute was a little frustrating but none the less we worked it out. only other thing was beware if you are a taller bigger individual the toilet in main bathroom is very small and sits really low! overall we had a wonderful stay caught lots of fish and enjoyed the beautiful sunsets/ we would love to come back again! thanks for sharing your beautiful cottage with us!
Very nice home, spacious and clean. Grand kids enjoyed fishing off the dock. Neighbors very friendly and helpful. Would book again. g
It was everything we expected and more. Thank you Dean and Melissa!
This property was perfect for our 2021 family vacation. The water was surprisingly warm and the sand bottom lake allowed my kids to spend hours comfortably swimming. The fishing was excellent as we caught decent sized pike, bass, crappie, and bluegill right off the dock. We also spent a lot of time exploring Lake George using the rowboat, kayaks and paddleboat that were kept at the cottage. The large TV in the living room allowed us to relax and enjoy family movie nights just like we would at home. My 4 year old daughter insisted she likes Lake George better than the ocean, so I am sure we will be back at some point.
The property is lovely and the cottage is warm and welcoming. We had everything we needed and more and the owners gave us helpful, specific notes. The fishing is great on this lake.
