Stayed Sep 30, 2025Cute cottage. Cleanliness was fine, except the one bed had a stained sheet. Kayaks were full of water, so not useable. Management company was very responsive. Walked to grocery and restaurant

Stayed Aug 3, 2025Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was cute. Yard is large and had plenty of space for our boys to run around. Kayaks were nice. There is only 1 AC unit in the living room and the bedrooms were kind of small. Wish there were bunkbeds and a pull out couch. There was a mowing service that came during one of the days of our stay and blew grass all over our stuff on the deck which was loud and annoying. Grill had no propane. Communication w visit up north was pretty easy. Location was close to Shorts and a few restaurants and grocery store that was nice. The indian restaurant magic masala was super slow tho and not the best food so would advise to avoid that place.

Stayed Jul 29, 2025Perfect size for us. 2 kids (4&6) and 2 adults. Picked this house for it being lake front with a boat dock. Great area for kids, not deep at all, we felt safe at all times. Lots of ducks. Super close to a market and gas station, and super close to Shorts Brewery, our favorite place. Clean house and had everything we needed.

Stayed Jul 11, 2025Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were used to staying on Glen Lake but b/c we decided to go so late in the summer season a rental was hard to come by. This place at least got us in the area. Toaster burned the toast. A/C stopped cooling in 90+ heat. View of the lake was obstructed by a large tree that could have been limbed up. Lake has mucky” bottom which neighbor recommended we not get in. TV operated with Firestick which we weren’t familiar with so we had to call 3 times to get operational - could’ve used simple instructions for use. Rental is VERY small and had to wash every kitchen utensil used b/c was not clean1

Stayed Jun 19, 2025Our stay was a short one. Waking up to be able to go fishing or swimming was wonderful. Then close to other bigger beaches and Shorts was great fun. Place is very quiet -after 10 pm when things shut down.Call of the loons is a great lullaby.

Stayed Dec 31, 1969Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The management company was excellent. They were responsive and available when needed. We had issues with the internet and were able to direct me to make a quick fix until Spectrum could remedy it permanently two days later. THANK YOU!The house isn't in great condition - it felt un-loved. The kitchen is disorganized - things just thrown on shelves and in drawers (with the exception of the two upper cabinets Plates/Glasses). The bathroom didn't seem clean, the floor grout needs a really good scrub (especially close to the sink) and the shower had areas of black mildew. The bathroom walls with all the moisture really need to be wiped down well in-between renters - there were water streaks everywhere. The moisture in the house probably contributes to the film on countertops and on cabinet shelves even though we emptied the dehumidifier twice daily. The beds were comfortable. The supplies were adequate and appreciated. The location was great and we enjoyed sitting on the patio regularly. I would recommend for a quick stay but not longer.

Stayed Jul 14, 2024Lovely stay - very nice and quiet, exactly what I was looking for attending a work conference in Traverse City - gave me a space to get away and enjoy in peace...even had some colleagues over for an evening around the campfire and we all agreed it was much better than booking hotel rooms and spending $$$ on high-end dinners - this was a better experience for me. Everything about the process was smooth. I had read comments about musty-ness in the property and was a little concerned. While there is a slight bit I detected when I walked in, it's nothing to be concerned about whatsoever. Walked in and literally said it's a cottage - this is exactly what I was anticipating. Enjoyed the stay very much. Thank you.

Stayed Jul 11, 2024It is a small very sweet little place. Right on the water. Was throughly enjoyable for the 2 of us and our Lab. (Who enjoyed the water and ducks). My only thing is….please maybe leave instructions for the TV. And, put more lamps in. Brighter light bulb in kitchen. Maybe even night lights around? Got a tad dark at night and trying to find the bathroom was a tad hazardous.
