Wonderful Vacation for Nature Lovers!

My family and I had a great time at this property! The private lake is beautiful, fishing was excellent! It's a secluded setting but still close to Mio and Rose City to pick up any essentials. We also drove into Mio (15min) and went tubing on the Au Sable River, and played golf at Cedar Valley.

Secluded House on Pretty Lake

Brought my grandkids (ages 2-6) up for 4 days and they had a ball. Small but very pretty lake to swim, kayak, and fish on. A nice beach too. In the middle of the forest with a lot of great places to hike. The cottage is very nice with plenty of room and great views. It was well stocked with everything we needed. We all had a good time and couldn't be happier.

A beautiful view and nice house

It is a very quiet and pretty spot. We loved seeing the swans and beavers on the lake. The kitchen was very well equipped. There were plenty of spaces to hangout and eat. The only downsides were the dishwasher did not do a good job and the beds were not comfortable. We would return in the future.

Great house and location - needs a deep cleaning

Loved the house and the lakefront setting. Description was spot on. Basics were clean (sheets, towels, dishes, etc.), but cupboards, window sills, entire basement area - need to be cleaned professionally (we went barefoot in basement and the soles of our feet were immediately black with dirt). Should be easy to fix that issue. Great stay!

Family Time

We rented the place hoping to ride the orv trails. The trails were close but not able to ride to the trails and the trails were not orv friendly. More for snowmobiles. The place was nice and roomy but could have used more instructions on where to find supplies (kitchen towels, tp, etc). The plastic covering on the beds upstairs was very HOT and noisy! We did enjoy our stay.

Perfect getaway

Every summer we go to the UP for a weeklong trip with our ATVs kayaks and fishing poles. This summer we couldn’t make it to the UP, so we chose to stay here. This was an unexpected perfect getaway. The cabin was very well stocked with our needs and very spacious for eight people. The trails in the area were fantastic with many different options. The fishing was so so, but there were a lot of other lakes to go fishing at. We at first thought the lake was just a glorified pond, but found ourselves enjoying it more than we could imagine. It was extremely private and floating out in the middle on our rafts was extremely relaxing. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for these type of accommodations.
