Relaxing and beautiful 4 season room

There were 7 adults and two children for our stay. The king bed we stayed in was very comfortable! The sandy beach in front was great for the grandkids and the dock was great for our boat! Would stay again but probably sleeps six adults best!

We loved it here!

This was our family's third stay in this lovely home & we enjoyed every minute. We viewed the Northern lights across the lake on the first night, explored with the kayaks, listened to the loons & played lawn games. It was an easy trip to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The cottage & beds were comfortable and there is a well supplied kitchen. All that you could ask for!

Home away from home!

We loved every minute! Beautifully well appointed home with great views on a lovely lake. The house had everything we needed and more. The yard is nice for lawn games, and the kayaks were fun. There also is a lot to do in the area, we’ll be back!

WONDERFUL HOME!!

This house was everything promised and more! Lynn makes sure the house is stocked with everything needed for a comfortable, enjoyable stay! The house is very clean and we couldn't have asked for anything more in a rental home! My family had a wonderful time! We loved it! Cindy V

Just what was needed.

I grew up vacationing in the Lake Ann area with my family, but stopped going when I was in high school. The memories I have I cherish dearly so having to opportunity to relive those memories while making new ones with my partner, daughter, son, and my be friends family was amazing. Thank you to Lynne and her family for opening their home. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay there.

family time

in spite of cooler temperatures and a little rain, our family had a great time at the Lake Ann house. The sun room and the decks were fantastic. Wonderful views. The house fit our family well.The kitchen had just about everything you could think of. (Although we couldn't find the mixer to go with the beaters?) But it all worked out. Look forward to visiting again soon! Thank you... Lynne was fantastic to work with!

A perfect, relaxing vacation at the lake

We had an absolutely amazing time at Lynne’s Lake Ann cottage. Our family has been renting cottages for 15 years and I can definitely say this is the best one yet. The cottage is very comfortably decorated and was sparkling clean when we arrived – which definitely helped with any of our renting during Covid-19 fears. It is also very well stocked with everything you need for a vacation – read through the cottage description to get the details on what is provided as it is a lot. Should any questions arise, Lynne is very responsive & helpful. One of the key features of the home are the many, many locations where you can relax and enjoy the lake views and breezes. Or you can just spend time enjoying the lake. If you want to get out and explore beyond the cottage, it is perfectly located about 30 minutes from both Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. There are also many hiking trails within just a few miles that are great for exploring. Given the opportunity, we would definitely return for another great, relaxing vacation.

Fall color vacation

The property was perfectly suited for our family getaway. We were celebrating a couple of birthdays and our anniversary. The location had easy access to all of the areas we were wanting to visit. Lake Ann is a beautiful lake and the home is close to the state park with hiking and biking trails. The town of Lake Ann has an amazing restaurant and brewery. The property is easy to find, has ample parking and lots of outdoor space. The house was very comfortable and had ample space for everyone. The kitchen was the most well equipped of any rental we have stayed in which made cooking and eating in a joy as well. The views were incredible from inside or out. The hosts were very friendly, flexible, and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent Location, Activities, and View

This property was top notch! Multiple lake activities available for guests, cleanliness was superb, location was ideal for an up north feel, lots of kitchen/dinning essentials were available, and the view of the lake was wonderful. Highly recommend for either a peaceful getaway or an lake activity filled vacation!

A wonderful vacation

This is a lovely and well supplied lakefront home. It has all of the amenities ! There are puzzles, books, canoes, float toys, and even a bit of sand ! The decks are wonderful to sit on outside but the real gem is the sunroom shaded by trees. We will definitely come back!

Family stay

We enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful cabin and the sights are breathtaking. Small detail, Bedrooms upstairs small and hard to control heat to feel comfortable. Bedding clean and mattresses comfortable. Beautiful lake, and the owner thought about every detail to make your stay pleasant. Great communication with owner. We are definitely coming back. Thanks Lynne!

Love, love, love this place!

Perfect get-away for our family with beautiful surroundings! This was the best stocked place we’ve ever stayed. Fluffy towels, comfy beds, and we made good use of the Sun Room. We used the kayaks every day, and enjoyed the fire pit and hammock. The host was extremely responsive, too. The week went by way too fast. Can’t wait to come back next year!

Great Location

The cottage had lots of space for all our different group members. Wifi and cable TV worked fine. It is close to a large grocery store in Interlochen. Plenty of parking space for 3 or 4 cars. We did not use the small bunk bed room except to set up a portable baby crib. Kayaks, baby swing, and long dock.... all great!

Perfect Lake House!

This house was the perfect place to gather with family and enjoy each other, the beautiful lake and explore the surrounding area. Plenty of space to enjoy being together and also have some alone time. Loved the big sun room, and watching the sunset from the pier or a kayak. Great hiking and mountain biking trails a few blocks from the property! The house wise well stocked and had everything we needed and then some! We loves it and would happily repeat this vacation!

A Cozy Thanksgiving

We stayed over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. It turned out to be cold and snowy all weekend, but the property was warm and cozy. It was very clean and everything was well maintained. We felt very comfortable. The location works great for trips to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City.

God’s Country

Lake Ann was a nice hidden area. We had everything we needed and more at our lodging spot. I will definitely go back. Lynne was a perfect host. My sister from Arizona, her husband and Aunt and Uncle had an amazing time. They said it was “God’s Country” where we stayed.

Excellent stay on a beautiful lake!

This summer home was the perfect location for our multi-generational gatherings. Our family had cottages in the area, and we gathered for evening meals, bonfires and swimming - playing in the lake. The entire home reflected the fun and family focus that the owners wished to express. We hope to return again some year.
