About this cottage rental
This all season Cottage on Heart Lake is well taken care of by Tom and Lynnette who live next door. Renovations and/or updates are made each year. Central air conditioning system added in 2021. We take pride in ensuring your stay is enJOYable and held to the highest cleaning standards that are safe to both the environment and man. We are pet free to maintain the cleanest environment. We love to keep up our lawn and gardens, so during the warmer weather we discretely water early in the morning or while your away to respect your privacy.

The Cottage is comfortable and more than spacious for our family of 4 adults. Easy sleeping. Ample area to relax together indoors (though we didn’t have to because we were blessed with beautiful summer weather). Kitchen is very adequately stocked. We made good use of the gas grill and prepared most dinners there. When the propane tank ran out, our host addressed the issue very timely. Dining and gorgeous views of the lake from the deck were enjoyed by all. Sitting lakeside was wonderful especially in the morning. And you can see/listen to the distinctive loon calls during the day. The view of a starlit sky from seating platform at end of the dock at night was breathtaking. Host provides good kayaks, paddle boards and a small boat for getting around a beautiful lake that’s usually looking glass calm.Proximity to Gaylord and small town of Waters is very convenient. But far enough removed that all you experience is tranquillity on the property.This is a fantastic place and the host is awesome! What else can I say? Loved every moment.

We had a great long weekend getaway here for the 4th of July. My family had the best time and enjoyed our stay. My husband and kids fished and swam non-stop. We loved the boat parade and fireworks that some neighbors did over the lake for the holiday. What a great spot, local restaurants were great, and less than an hour away from Mackinaw City where we caught a ferry to Mackinac Island.

Tom was a great host. Communication was very good. The rooms were very clean. The pier and dock worked out great for our boat. We enjoyed our time here. We look forward to coming again.
