Stayed for a few days, in from Texas.

Check in was a breeze. Property was as billed from ads. We arrived around Thanksgiving, it began to snow and the views were made even more spectacular. Would rent again and recommend to those looking for something cozy on the water or anything Traverse City

20th Anniversary Trip

A lovely cottage on a beautiful lake. We had a wonderfully comfortable stay with easy access to Silver Lake, Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and close enough to drive to Mackinac Island! It was great to relax at this cottage after a busy day of exploring. Highly recommend!

Family Vacation

We had a great time at Silver lake. The dock and beach access were wonderful! Our family loved it. The house had everything we needed for a lovely home away from home. We have two little kids, so we didn't need a lot of space. It might be a tight squeeze with more then 2 adults. It was clean and well maintained.

Nice small cottage

The property was exactly as advertised. The cottage is very small, but nicely updated inside. The water frontage and docking are very nice and the lake bottom is sandy. Our stay was excellent and Katie was a very responsive host whenever we needed anything. Recommend putting some more storage in the bathroom for toiletries.
