We have tried to keep our cottage a place for our family to concentrate on the outdoors and each other, not technology... meaning there is no cable. However wifi is available so if you have your own streaming accounts you can use the Roku to watch on the TV in the loft bedroom. There is also a DVD player and lots of DVD movies.
We have a ton of books and games available in the living room bookshelves.
For outdoor eating and relaxing there is a large deck with 2 tables, umbrellas, and chairs on the main level, and if you want a little more secluded shady area for sitting or reading etc. you can move down to a beautiful cement patio below.
The basement of the cottage is closed off, and not included in the rental.
A short walk down the hill leads you to the fire pit (bring your own marshmallow sticks), tetherball, horse shoes, and waterfront/dock area. If you bring a volleyball/badminton net, there is even a nice area to set that up by the dock area. The dock is a 40' x 3' that you can tie up to (bring boat bumpers), and there is a boat lift that can hold a small 16-18' bass boat or outboard powerboat.
We provide 5 kayaks, a peddle boat, and a row boat.
Hamlin Lake is a wonderfully large 5000 acre lake, so feel free to truly enjoy it by bringing a powerboat that you can launch at either the public access 3 miles from the cottage off Nurnberg Road on Forrest Road 5540 (caution, this is a faster option but this section of the lake can be quite weedy, and challenging to navigate) or Wilson Hill Park on Barnhart Rd. north of Ludington (this is a 30 minute drive, but is right across upper Hamlin Lake from the cottage). You can also rent a pontoon boat from various locations, including Barnhart's Marina, and Sunset Bluff Resort, which are right across Upper Hamlin Lake from the cottage.
You can go on about an hour hike right from the cottage through the Manistee National Forest to the Nordhouse Dunes and its pristine undeveloped Lake Michigan shoreline where you can swim, picnic, and even tent camp if you want to!
