Close to Caberfae

Quiet neighborhood, and very close to Caberfae for skiing! Entry into the garage to stash our ski gear! Responsive owner, a great little spot for our family and two dogs! Would be a great spot in Summer with the dock!

Scenic, Quiet, Outstanding Fishing

The home is located on a scenic channel with direct access to Mitchell Lake. Everything in the owners description is accurate. He was very responsive when I had questions and very pleasant to deal with. This is perfect for a small family. There is a queen bed in one room and 2 sets of bunk beds in the other. I would definitely stay here again. The fishing is outstanding.

Perfect place

Loved the property, the access to Lake Mitchel for ice fishing was great by Big Cove. Parking was great for truck and trailer. Perfect place for our trip. Just wish the weather would have cooperated with us to fish! Will be back in the future.

Quiet and pleasant area

We spent two enjoyable weeks at the “Yellow Perch” on Lake Mitchell. Easy to get to and easy to get to Cadillac, Mi. Many restaurants available. Would recommend the “13th street grill and The Timbers restaurant. The Yellow Perch has a great back yard view along with grill, fire pit, and access for boating. There is a launching ramp about a mile away and there are docks in the back yard. Quiet area and a great area for walking. The Kitchen was well supplied. Only reason we didn’t give it a 5 is the living room is dark and we recommended to the owner that more light should be made available, which he agreed to do. We hope to be able to go back in 2025.

Quiet neighborhood

Place was clean. There was an issue with the oven not working and the owner called immediately. Check in and out was simple. There is not a cleaning fee because he has you clean the house entirely before you leave. Kitchen was well stocked.

2022 Fall Trip

House was as advertised. Great location. Comfortable stay and quiet setting. Nice and friendly neighbors. Fall colors were awesome. Had fun in the water with the watercraft supplied. Downtown was not that far away so we enjoyed some good food too. Dewayne was always in communication and everything went smooth and easy with check-in and out. Love the area. Will be back up there for sure.

Fishing vacation

The house was very easy to find. The check in process was simple. The host was very accommodating because we had some date issues. Someone came during the evening to place the trash bin out to the street and put chunks of concrete in it while we were renting for that week. Didn't appreciate that because we had our boat with all of our fishing gear in the driveway and we felt it was secure. Nothing happened but we know someone was there.

A nice quiet cottage

We found the accommodations to be very nice. The price for the 5-day rental was right too. A canal connected us to Lake Mitchell With the option of using two docs. Overall experience was very good.
