We really enjoyed the lake the paddle boards and kayaks. Short drive the beach! I wish the grill worked, it was full of water and rusted. That would be my only suggestions for improvement.

Not worth the price. Grounds unkept, grass not cut, area cluttered. Cabin in disrepair. Not a resort feel at all. More like low rent trailer park. Will not return.

Clean and on the lake.
This property was clean and right on the lake. The beds are very firm, so if you need extra support you better bring it. They also have access to kayaks, paddle boards, and row boats. All in all it was a pretty good stay.

Quiet and peaceful lake
Property is quiet and peaceful. 15 minute scenic drive to town. Nice assortment of kayaks and SUPs. Communication with the owner was great! Only complaint was one night we had an issue with small flying bugs around the air conditioner that were attracted to light. We were told they’re harmless.

Great location, great property
This is right where you want to be. On a beautiful lake with spectacular sunsets, near Lake Michigan, hiking, dunes and fun. New home, right on the lake. We loved the kayaks. Saw herons and eagles. We didn’t want it to end

Beautiful cabin
We had such a great experience! The property, lake and cabins were beautiful. The lake had a great swimming area, and they had kayaks, paddle boards and row boats to use which was an awesome bonus!!! Lake Michigan is less than 15 minutes away and there were many hiking trails very close by. The hosts were so nice and greeted us when we arrived. I would highly recommend this property!

Exceeded expectations
What a gem. The place was clean and nicely decorated. Great view from inside. The best part was the dock and sitting outside to watch the sunset. Very quiet location. The kayaks and paddleboards were a huge bonus! Used them everyday and kids loved it.
