"Clean and neatly appointed. All the comforts of home. The neighbors stood out ... everyone waves, everyone smiles, kind of made us fall in love with Michigan. Lake life, seems like it really is the best life. Thank you for sharing your home with us."

"Clean, comfortable, quiet and cozy setting in the woods."

"We came to Michigan for our nephews wedding. We are from Pennsylvania. We loved the house. Tammy’s hospitality is amazing. Everything you need is there. Weather was a little cold want to go back so we can use the paddle boats. Thank you for everything. Definitely a great place to stay"

"Our family had a wondeful time relaxing in the hot tub, on the deck, and down by the river. Rooms and beds were comfortable and spacious. Had to bring our own awning to go over the hot tub, as it is out in the open. Not a bad thing to say about this rental, and if we do come back to the area, will definitely stay again."

"Amazing, unique property! So beautiful and quiet. We enjoyed just sitting in the sun room and staring out at the lake. Great recommendation for Bullseye marketplace near by. T.K. Lawless park is right next door, wonderful trails for all! We would love to stay again, we certainly did not want to leave!"

"We enjoyed a relaxing lake-view vacation in a unique rental. Plenty of day-trips locations close by and plenty of good food. You can do as little or as much as you like and still have a great vacation."

"We booked this VRBO for a place to stay to go to the Notre Dame/OSU football game. It was a beautiful weekend to be on the lake and enjoy this lovely home. It was everything we could have asked for. Thank you, France, for your hospitality."

"Beautifully decorated. Kitchen appliances and utensils well stocked. Very clean, charming and peaceful. No closets or dressers in bedrooms was an inconvenience. Other than that a very nice stay!"

"This was a great place to stay! Very clean & nicely decorated. Close to coffee shops & grocery store. We enjoyed using the kayaks too! We would definitely stay here again."

"The cottage is charmingly vintage but still quite comfortable. The hosts include thoughtful touches like spices, toiletries, fishing rods, laundry soap, etc., that aren't necessary certainly but that make for a welcoming stay. Donnell Lake is a quite busy little lake and wasn't our favorite for our quiet little paddleboards and sailboat, but we were also there over Labor Day, so it's probably not always quiet so busy. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying at the cottage, though. The...

"We arrived earlier than check in and owners were very accommodating! Did everything to make our stay comfortable! Didn’t get to enjoy the property as much as we hoped for due to bad weather but overall was perfect! Wonderful romantic getaway. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. And plenty of blankets for a cold night. Will definitely be back."

"Pros: There were 7 of us women that enjoyed our stay and would come back for another weekend. We were pleasantly surprised that there was more comfortable outdoor seating than shown in the pictures. Most of us spent the entire day outside paddle boarding and floating in the lake and gathering around the fire pit at night. They had everything you could want available to use, beach towels, camping chairs, lake toys and floats, patio umbrellas on the porch and dock, a table inside large enough to...

"We had a great stay! Weather was perfect, house clean & beach sandy."

"It was a wonderful stay! Peaceful and super clean!"

"Super clean and organized. Everything that was listed was there. We didn’t need anything that wasn’t there. The only suggestion I could make would be a fire pit in the back. Friday night out on the back patio was great with the stars out."

"This was the perfect location to come back to after day trips to Shipshewana. It was very cute, comfortable and cozy. Our favorite part was the hot tub at night overlooking the peaceful and serene lake. We really enjoyed our stay."
