Great amenities & convenient

Great home & nice area. Everything was super clean upon arrival & so many neat things inside & around the home, this house had a lot to offer! The back deck & little private beach area with the fire pit & the views that came with that made this spot that much better. Frankfort & Manistee are not far away either which was also convenient. Tons to do within the area, we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Blissful!

The sunsets and beach combing were AMAZING!! Could not have asked for a better location for all of the outdoor activities we love to enjoy. Each day we hiked, went rock hunting, took the boardwalk looking to expand our bird-list, walked to the lighthouse in Frankfort, visited the art gallery there, and mostly just chilled. We hope to return soon.

Perfect cottage

Perfect, my hopes when I booked this place was on the beach so I could hear the waves. It did way more than that. I could hear the waves day and night . Didn’t wanna leave , perfect. Thank you so much. I will be visiting there again

wonderful location

There could not be better views of Lake Michigan, or a better beach. This is just a wonderful place. The place is very thoughtfully set up, from the hose for washing off sandy feet to the kitchen to having plenty of towels. It was as described-- "rustic"-- so don't be surprised by that.

Sweet little place on the lake.

Overall a nice little place for an escape. Our dog did set off a live mouse trap (he was unharmed) and found one with a dead mouse. It made him like the place even more.

The cottage I found was in a great location with an awesome view of the lake.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Being right on the lake the views are absolutely amazing. It was the most wonderful place to watch the sunsets over the lake. The house was clean and had a nicely equipped kitchen and bathroom. Previous reviews, stating that this house is "rustic" are not exaggerated. Our trip was apparently toward the end of the usable season, as the winds coming off the lake were quite strong and very cold. Although this is not in the control of the rental company, with the lack of seals on doors, windows and areas of the walls, it was a struggle to keep the house warm, even with electric heaters that were placed around the house. Because of the location and the views, I would recommend this property to a friend, with the caveat that this time of year may not be the most ideal because of the lack of insulation.

Disappointed

This is a cute cabin. However, the photos make it seem like you have direct access to the beach - not via a steep, origami staircase. This unfortunately, kept me from enjoying the actual feel of the beach. :(( So I sat on the floating deck which is now enclosed and enjoyed the view from above. Also, both of our dogs couldn’t descend the stairs as well. I don’t know if the owners have been there yet or property management, but it could use a once over (new light bulbs, doors don’t open/ close all the way, fireplace doesn’t work which they left a heater in lieu for). All in all, the stay was a nice rustic, relaxing treat - even if I didn’t walk on the beach. ;)

Perfect getaway at this sweet, well-loved cabin.

We throughly enjoyed our weeklong stay at this sweet, well loved cabin. We spent most of our days lounging on the beach and enjoyed watching the sun set from the Adirondack chairs on the deck. The kitchen has seen some updates and we found everything we needed to make most of our meals at home. We enjoyed day trips to Empire, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Traverse City. We opened all the windows and doors and enjoyed the cool lake breezes and fell asleep each night to the rolling of the waves. There are plenty of extra blankets to keep you warm on cooler nights and the beds are super comfortable. We were sad to find the indoor fireplace was inoperable but made use of the fire pit and enjoyed a fire beachside. The WiFi worked like a champ and we made use of it several nights by watching a movie together on our son’s iPad. If you are looking to unplug and rest and reset, this is the place for you! We will definitely be back.

Hidden Gem of Lake Michigan

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There isnt enough space to adequately review this DARLING little cabin. If you want a fancy place this is not the place for you! The house reminded me of summer camp be on Lake MI was our dream and we certainly had that know we were not getting in a car to go to the beach each day was priceless.....there is PLENTY to do in the area too if folks like to go on day trips.. time we might bring our boat....we brought our paddleboard and enjoyed using it in the beautiful sandy beach....we chose to stay pretty close and mainly go to hiking trails and golf and dine out a couple times.We are mainly beach people so this satisfied that aspect. We cooked in every night but once and found the kitchen to be well stocked with needed items...We might suggest that there could be a table on the deck for outdoor dining....mostly we sat overlooking the water eating off our laps because we didnt want to miss a minute of not seeing the lake! Also, very quiet..met friendly renters and owners along the beach as well.If you love beach hiking you can go for miles!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our 2nd year in renting the 'Cabin". Wow. What a find. We are in LOVE. Being RIGHT on Lake Michigan means everything to us AND having a pet friendly rental just really is a score for us. As long-time renters in northwest MI this place exceeds the view of the lake, the beauty of being on the BIG lake. The cabin itself is terrific. Now mind you, we enjoy rustic with no TV or a/c. Right up our alley. We cook most every meal in and the and we were very satisfied with the kitchen equipment and space in which to serve and prepare meals. When we arrived it was very hot but a fan and extra bedding was brought to us(we stayed 2 weeks) So much beach hiking, trail hiking, golfing, bike riding AND we brought out boat and kept it in town at the marina.Our ONLY concern this year was: is the beach area frontage for the property ours and private? We know ANYONE can walk a shoreline. We unfortunately had to share the beach area with a neighboring cottage and we were a bit surprised about that. We spoke with management because the property should either be noted as PRIVATE beach or SHARING with next door neighbors.( shared with no one last year) Otherwise, this place is a winner in our book! Happy and grateful we could had the opportunity to be there.

Love the deck with chairs up high for sunset viewing.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is rustic! The kitchen works well. But the futons are strange. It’s not cozy like a couch. No washer/dryer, so we found a laundromat in Onekema. Great beach !
