The cabin was clean, Ruth responded promptly to questions, and the air conditioning worked well. The peaceful lake was amazing! We enjoyed the view from the table inside, and enjoyed grilling and eating dinner outside, right next to the lake. Sitting outside in the shade and watching the neighbor's dog play and boats going by was so relaxing. Wilderness State Park, Cheboygan State Park, Church of the Staits, McGulpin Point Lighthouse, King's Orchard, Legs Inn, and Mackinac Island were all nearby.

It is a very cute cottage. We had the opportunity to use both the AC and the furnace and both worked great. The patio facing the lake was very comfortable and we enjoyed having our meals out in the sun room with a view. The property is within easy driving range of a number of cities including Mackinac City.

Beautiful cottage on Carp Lake fewer than 10 minutes from Mackinac City. Very small bedrooms are what makes it 4 star v 5.
