Had a great time on Cedar Lake fishing, boating, kayaking, fires, golf, cards, cornhole, and also trips into Traverse City. Enjoyed the surrounding area on Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Ann. The cabin and pontoon boat were excellent for the week of fun with family.

Great Spring Break in the woods!

Our family of 4 (plus medium-sized dog) had a wonderful 5 nights here in the woods. We enjoyed how far away from everything we felt while at the cabin, but how close we actually were to Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and more.

Great place for a short trip

Really enjoyed our stay. Property was nice and clean and matched the description. A nice place to stay for a couple of days, far from the madding crowd 🙂. Great communication with the owner and very helpful with adjustment on our stay duration.

Nice cabin, enjoyed our stay

Overall my family and I enjoyed our stay here. The woods are peaceful and kayaking on the lake was fun. When I first saw the list of extra things to bring like soap and TP I was disappointed that we had to pack extra, but we ended up finding a lot of what we needed left at the house by previous guests. There is a dollar general five minutes away so I would recommend seeing what you need first and grabbing it there. Overall we would be happy to stay again!

Wonderful Michigan Getaway!

Our stay was great! Cozy cabin, clear lake for swimming, loved kayaking and swimming off the pontoon. The home is situated between Traverse City and the Sleeping Bear Dunes area. We loved our outdoor adventures and the cabin was great for our indoor rainy days too!

Best vacation spot ever

We stayed for 4 nights and let me tell you we did not want to leave. We have been all over the United States and this was by far our favorite spot we have ever stayed in. Beautiful cabin, beautiful private location, with a Great Lake and pontoon boat. Would be perfect for a girls weekend retreat, guys weekend retreat or even just a get away for the family. Pretty much 20 minutes from everything you want to travel too. We hope to stay there every year. Could not have had a better trip.

Great House! (exactly as described)

We really enjoyed ourselves in this charming home. The owner’s instructions/descriptions were spot on so please pay attention to them. We really hope to come back when the weather is nicer so we can take advantage of the lake, boat, etc…. The driveway could be easily missed at night so it’s best to arrive durning the day for checkin.

Absolutely beautiful!

We had SUCH a good time this weekend at your cabin! The view was our favorite! & the kids loved the game room down stairs. We are already looking to come back this summer and make this a yearly tradition. We had so much fun. This was our first time in Traverse City and we all loved our time. You have made our first time here so enjoyable and great. Thanks so much!

What an amazing property

We stayed for easter weekend and it was an absolutely wonderful stay. Weather was cool but the light snowflakes falling on the lake was a beautiful view from the balcony. Our pup fell in love with running back and forth down the path to the lake. And the home was incredibly cute (quote from my wife) inside and out. Finally, thank you Lizzie for the excellent communication. We can't wait to come back when the weather is warmer

Cozy winter getaway

This place was amazing! Our family of 5, plus our close friends, stayed here for a fun winter getaway. It was such a cozy little retreat for us! The gas fireplace warmed us up after ice fishing on the lake, snowy walks, and the kids running around enjoying the snow covered woods outside. Our dogs loved just sprawling out in front of the fireplace, which kicks off a very good amount of heat. The cabin was very well stocked, warm, and has very cool floor to ceiling windows facing the lake. It was also easy to find and well marked. We will definitely come stay again! Thanks for renting out such a cool place.

Perfect family getaway

This cabin was better than I anticipated. Sometimes I worry lakehouses will be gross and not taken care of, but everything here was in perfect shape and made us feel right at home. There was plenty of space for our group of 7 adults and 1 baby. We loved that they had everything we need, from life jackets, to a girdle. There was a pack-and-play already there but I didn't realize it and we brought our own. If I was to improve one thing it would be to have lawn chairs that we could bring to the beach. The hosts were very nice and had lots of instructions as well as recommendations for things to do. We can't wait to come back.

Cozy during a Blizzard!

Our family group of 7 adults decided to risk it and arrive just before the start of a 2 day blizzard which was predicted to leave up to 26" of snow. (Be sure to listen to the advice to have an AWD vehicle for the snow covered roads!)The cabin was warm and perfect for our group. We cooked and played pool, watched a dvd from their selection. We went out on one of the blizzard nights to the local bar and got pizza. The other patrons were all friendly and it was a fun night with everyone braving the storm and enjoying the night. We did bring extra blankets which the instructions suggested and we were glad we did. All of the house suggestions are important to heed. We did need them all. We slept in comfortable beds and there was a nice amount of space for us all. The massive window in the main room was beautiful for watching the dramatic weather unfolding outside!

Sleeping Bear Dunes

The property was adequate. It was missing some of the personal touches. The linens are getting a bit worn. It may have said it in the listing but we were surprised it was on a dirt road. Overall it was ok.

Beautiful Early Fall Weekend

The cottage and property were perfect for our weekend. It is very private (although someone is building on the lot next door), and there is a lot of space. We made many trips up and down the path to the lake - perfect for the dogs! We used the firepit on the dock but not the one next to the house. Pretty cool to sit on the dock around a fire and watch the stars come out. Sunrises were perfect! Every day a different sunrise over Cedar Lake. Caught a few bass off the pontoon. It was very peaceful. If you paid attention you could hear barred owls and sandhill cranes. Also saw an eagle and a pileated woodpecker. The cottage was set up perfectly for us with sleeping available on three levels. Not sure how comfy the bunk beds were, but the queen was good. The furniture in the living room isn't very comfortable. The kitchen table works well. The bathrooms and kitchen were good, and the bedrooms were great with plenty of places to put your stuff after unpacking. It had everything we needed for a great weekend.

Forced family fun!

We took our kids and grandkids on a family trip, the cabin was a perfect get away. The playground, pontoon and swim mat were a huge hit and set this cabin apart. Traverse City and the Sand Dunes are nearby, but the young kids had the most fun just staying at the cabin.
