Cozy Lake Chapin House, One Bedroom, One Bath Quiet Country Setting

We were so happy with the property, the perfect getaway with our pup. The back deck was great for an evening glass of wine and we were surprised to see two pairs of swans gliding along the lake our first night there. Our pup had fun chasing the boat waves while we relaxed on the shoreline. Close to so many great dog friendly places. We will definitely be back for a longer stay in the future!

We stayed here breaking up a long drive to northern Michigan. Got in late, left early. Wish we had more time to enjoy the peaceful view of the river! House had everything we needed!

Clean home, adorable setting, great views. Attached to a home and not detached would have been nice to know. I would say it comfortably sleeps 3-4, not 6. Otherwise we had a great experience!

This property was pet-friendly, which can be a blessing and a curse. We lost power for 6 hours one very hot night and the smell of urine in the living room became overwhelming as the humidity built up. In addition, some of the windows did not open so we had little cross breeze. One of our dogs got sick the last week of our stay so we borrowed a carpet shampooer and cleaned the living room carpeting. We cleaned twice and then rinsed and the water was still dirty. The owners posted house rules on the refrigerator, but because the owners didn't always follow the rules, some tenants in the other rental unit thought they could let their pets run loose as well. Also, dog poo in the front yard were annoying to dodge for about 2 wks.The location was great; we really enjoyed walking the dogs in the area so they could smell the deer and other critters. We found plenty to do. The space in the unit was ample, but there were so many pots, pans and glasses that we had a hard time finding a place to put our groceries. I think I counted 13 skillets and most of the plates were chipped as were the bowls. Overall, we thought the cleanliness left much to be desired. Dead bugs on walls, the exhaust fan in the bathroom was caked with gunk (we cleaned it off), the light switches were icky, the air return vents were disgusting, we went and bought a new dish drainer and threw out old spices from 2019. We went and bought a 6' Swifter to clean the dust hanging on the ceiling fans.
