A delightful property, well supplied with all the kitchen gear you might need, boats, linens, games, books. Wonderful view, excellent surroundings - wetlands and lakes full of birds and other wildlife. Probably not too many better options out there anywhere!

Pleasantly surprised.
We stayed for Christmas to spend the Holiday with our children. House was decorated nicely, and ready to host our family. For the price, We didnt have huge expectations, but we were pleasantly surprised. One small snag with an electrical outlet that was quickly addressed by very responsive hosts. Cute cottage in a very secluded lake neighborhood. Would stay there again, maybe in the summer to enjoy the lake.

We booked this location for our visit to the Michigan Fiber Festival in Allegan. We also went in to Kalamazoo and South Haven for dinners out and some additional shopping. The decks were great for playing games and hanging out. It was a great place to stay. Thank you!

Peaceful, unique cottage by the lake
We had an excellent vacation in this beautiful and peaceful A-frame. Stayed with our 18 and 20-year old kids. So many unique and special features in addition to comfortable and clean accomodations. One of the highlights for us was the birdfeeder right off the deck. So amazing to see an enormous woodpeck just feet from us! Pros: Peaceful lake-even on weekend the boat traffic was minimal Birdfeeder Close to town Kayaks, canoes & big swimming floats-we swam and kayaked everyday Comfortable sleeping & clean accomodations Gas grill-super nice and easy to use Amazing view from multiple level decks Host was very helpful andcommunication was quick and easy. Access and check-in was super convenient. Cons: we couldn't really think of any One of the unique features was the circular staircase that provided the access to all three levels of the cottage. They were very sturdy and safe-even the scardy cat mom got used to them very quickly, We loved this cottage and the memories we made together at the lake!

The Chalet is very clean and tidy. The woman in my life are hard to please and they were very happy with the smell of the bedding :) The location and lake is very quiet and the fishing is good once you find the fish! Exactly as advertised and a great price if comparing to equivocal properties.

The property is very nice. It is clean and spacious for an A-frame. The house contained all the amenities we needed. The owners were very responsive and answered any questions that I had. Checking in and out was a breeze. The pond was nice, and the provided canoe gave a way to get out on the water.

Spring Break Getaway
We had a great time hanging out in a really fun place right by the lake! Lots of room for a family of 5 and we saw lots of nature that Included more birds the I could list and we even spotted the elusive local Beaver! Well stocked house - would also be amazing in the summer when it’s warmer.

Cute A Frame on a Long and Winding Road
Weather very chilly and windy so unable to take advantage of the outdoor spaces. Obviously not the fault of the owner. Plenty of supplies I.e. towels, Kleenex and blankets (lots and lots). Had almost everything we needed. We brought our own breakfast foods. Only had to buy coffee and there is a grocery store in downtown Delton. We only ate out in the area once at The Four Roses Cafe. What a gem! The food and the service was impeccable and no staff shortage at this establishment. Quite a well oiled machine. 😄 Thank you to the owner for the recommendation.

Really fun
We truly enjoyed our week at the Wren House. The cottage was amazingly well-stocked with nearly everything we could imagine. The welcome basket was a nice touch. The downside of that is that there was little storage space for all OUR stuff, but that's not a bad thing. Our host was terrific! He responded immediately to my questions, had extra firewood delivered at a most reasonable price, gave us information about the blessedly comfy memory foam mattress topper, and even mailed a small bag of personal items I accidentally left there. The ONLY things we didn't care for were all the stairs down to the lake; it's quite a climb back up to the cottage. Thank heavens for the lovely "rest area" midway. We spent a LOT of time enjoying the peace and quiet of the lake from there and from the main level deck. The bird feeders are a great touch for wildlife-lovers like us! Especially since a can of birdseed was included. Too bad you can't see the lake from the huge fire pit, but we spent a lot of time there anyway. We appreciated all the extra camp chairs in the storage chest near the shed. The only other negative was the steep and tightly spiraled staircases. The folks who slept in the loft lived out of their suitcases kept on the main level because it was too difficult to get them up the stairs. All in all, I'd recommend the Wren House to anyone who can navigate the stairs.

Amazing lake house
We spent our Memorial day weekend with our family and my daughter's closest friends. There is enough room to spread out plus the lake view is awesome. We rented a pontoon based on the owner's recommendation and had a great time cruising and swimming in the lake. We cooked our own food, made smores in the fire pit and played board games. The kids went kayaking too and tried fishing. Overall, an enjoyable and relaxing trip and hope to come back again.
