Beautiful, comfortable property! It was the perfect combination: felt like an "old school" family Cottage--- but with upgrades to the bathrooms, kitchen, and entire downstairs, that made it comfortable for what we expect in 2026. We loved the giant screened in porch, and the landing (on the way to the lake) with the rocking chairs… We were there at the very beginning of May, so it was breezy and kind of cool, and being able to be up on the porch and protected from the wind made the porch an awesome place for morning coffee, or dinner. The dock hadn't been put out, yet, but around dusk I sat down on the bottom steps, and saw all sorts of small wildlife.We felt far away from everything, yet drove only an hour to the tulip festival, in Holland, which was the purpose of our trip… And then spent a delightful afternoon at the Chihuly exhibit, at the Meijer Botanical Gardens, 1/2 hr away, in Grand Rapids.Suggestions: If you don't want to be up at sunrise, bring sleep masks; the upstairs bedrooms are very bright, as soon as the sun is up… There is no grocery store nearby, just a convenience store, and a really great ice cream/lunch place; you may want to come prepared with the bulk of your food… We were there during spring cleanup, and there was a tremendous amount of leaf blower noise, from the Neighbors. (On Saturday and Sunday it was about 3 to 4 hours each day!… Only about an hour each day on the weekdays.) We would go again to this great place, but not on a w/e in early May!

The house and its rooms were very clean and ready to use. We had everything we needed (and much more) to cook, grill, shower, clean, roast, play, relax, etc.The view to the frozen lake from the back porch and from the dock was amazing.I would 10/10 recommend to stay here ! My family and myself had a great 2-night stay.

This house was everything we were looking for in a Fall weekend getaway. We enjoyed kayaking, a beautiful sunrise, family game time in the screened in porch and even met a friendly squirrel and cat. The owner was very accomodating and responsive to communication.
