Property was lovely. A great retreat in nature but still close to all of Traverse City fun and surrounding communities. Only request would be to possibly replace the mattresses in the master bedroom. It sagged.

Cousin vacation

This home was perfect for my children and my two sisters/spouses. The neighbors were kind the water/beach area was perfect for the little ones. We also meet up with family who lived only 25 mins away and got to spend the best vacation spots together! We are hoping to make this a yearly thing “cousin vacation” as my kids call it! ♥️

Lovely cabin with Great Lake access!

This cabin was perfect for our annual lake getaway. The lake access was perfect and the kids enjoyed fishing, swimming, and kayaking. The cabin had everything we needed. Evolve was very easy to work with and John the neighbor checked in on us and gave us lots of great information. 5 stars!

Great lake to stay on

Loved how clean and laid back the lake was. The house was pretty clean, but a little weathered looking. Great communication with the building manager. You may want to bring extra toilet paper, as they didn't have much extra there.

Beautiful spacious home on a private lake!

This place was perfect for an extended weekend for a girls getaway. The view was amazing, the beds were comfortable and the dining table was perfect for family style eating, playing cards and games. The Lake was so calm and having kayaks at our disposal was such a bonus. The neighbors (John and Marty) were friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. The owner was great and very quick to respond to any questions we had. The icing on the cake was hearing the call of the loon that landed in the lake as we were packing up to go home. I would highly recommend this place.

Nice lake, great for kids, house just OK

The lake really is beautiful and very shallow, making it perfect for small children. They loved jumping off the dock, and the row boat and canoes were a nice addition. The house though, left much to be desired. It was quite dirty...our friend dropped something under their bed when unpacking and there was a dirty tissue under the bed. We had to move a bit of furniture to accommodate pack n plays and there were cobwebs and sand everywhere. I get most people don't clean under their beds on a regular basis, but every piece of large furniture had sand under it. Even once a month deep clean would be good! We had trim fall off the wall twice in different places after barely brushing against the wall. A few other things: 2nd bathtub doesn't drain - buy some Drano and fix this immediately! The paper towel holder in the 2nd bath is a TV tray with a branch from outside across the bottom that the TP hangs off of. Most of the towels were rags with strings hanging off everywhere. You can get cheap towels at Target/Walmart. There were a handful of cups for adults which was very bizarre. Tons of cups for kids and wine glasses, but maybe 3-4 water cups. It's a good thing the lake and fire pit were so nice because the house wasn't that impressive. We had a great time with friends and if things mentioned above aren't important to you, then you'll be fine.

Comfy, clean and cozy!!

This home was very clean and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked and both TVs had Roku so we were able to log in and watch TV. The beds were really comfortable. Lots of light from the windows. Comfy couches. A couple of notes that I sent to the property owner so they may be addressed - we did not find a hair dryer (a necessity for my family in Michigan winter) and there were not enough bedroom outlets. A few other things for future visitor knowledge - there are no bathroom toiletries, so bring your own bar soap, shampoo, etc. There was about 1 roll of toilet paper in each bathroom so, with 7 people, we had to go buy more toilet paper the first night. There was only one comforter and no blankets on each bed, but after some digging we did find extra blankets in one of the closets so were able to warm up all of the beds.

Peaceful Lake

The cottage and lake were perfect. A great place for kayaking, fishing, swimming and evening campfires. It was close to Traverse City for entertainment yet a quiet retreat. The cottage was comfortable and the kitchen well appointed. Everything was clean and the washer and dryer for towels was a bonus. We would definitely recommend this property.

Cute place, quiet and peaceful

Everything went well. (Neighbor guy stopped in to say hi 5 min after we arrived to share his live autobiography -- it wasn't all bad, nice dude and all.... but I didn't really want to visit with a stranger for 60 minutes burning up my afternoon by the lake on day .01, but oh well I guess). Fishing was pretty good. Caught a 13" & a 14" perch, several smallies and a couple large mouth. Had a couple rainy days and when the wind blew at night, the house came alive with howling noises. Made the sleep a little rough, but it worked out. Batteries were dead in the TV remote (seems to be a thing with my VRBO stays lately, ... weird). Ü Nice old cabin though, and a "history of the lake" lecture to boot. If you get the chance to stay here... Do it.

Awesome stay!

My family of 6 had a wonderful stay. The cabin had everything that we needed. The kitchen was well equipped with updated appliances and plenty of space. I had read previous reviews that there was no central air, but there definitely is central air now! The lake was great. The older kids loved the kayaks and running and jumping off the dock. My toddler loved splashing around on the beach and shallow water. We were able to have a fire every night and roast marshmallows. John the neighbor made sure we were all set with firewood and kindling. There was also a grill that was easy to use. This was the perfect relaxing spot for our family. Highly recommend!
