    We enjoyed Firefly Cottage so much. It was perfectly suited for our family of six. Kayaks and fire pit were enjoyed as well as every inch of the house. The kitchen is well stocked and we were able to sit on the sunporch for all of our meals, which was so nice, because all that was called outside all the windows and the sunshine coming in made it feel so cozy. Scott was a great host and well, and was very accommodating. We will definitely be booking an anything I need any comments you want again on our next visit to Hillsdale!

    We enjoyed our visit to Bay Beese Lake so much!! Every possible detail was thought out! We didn't want for anything. From the TALL to the small, everyone had something to do during our stay. Daily kayaking was thoroughly enjoyed! The quiet at night was very peaceful. Thank you for a great stay! We can't wait until next summer! Cheers!
