This is the perfect little getaway. Myself, my wife and two teenage children had a blast. We enjoyed kayaking, fishing and played games all night. The house his immaculate and the guest provides us with everything we needed. All we needed was food and drinks!

Perfect house in the woods right near beautiful lake
Came to Michigan for a weekend of fishing and Nascar. House was perfect for 6 family members. Location was awesome, set in a woods with the dock a short walk away. Very private yard. The chain of lakes was beautiful, great time fishing and swimming. Would definitely come back in the future.

Incredible Lake, Relaxing Easy Stay
The tiny house was perfect for a friend and I to kick back for a few days. We enjoyed cooking meals in the kitchen and over the fire. The spacious bathroom was great for a relaxing shower after swimming and kayaking. And the lake is pristine! Warm and so fun to paddle around. We especially enjoyed exploring the channels.

Cozy and quaint
Stayed here for our wedding night. It was cozy and comfortable, and we loved the feeling of being in the trees. The weather was 90 degrees but inside the tiny house it dropped to 60, the air conditioning in there is phenomenal. We took the kayaks out for a ride which were clean and worked great. Our host was so easy to talk to and ask questions, responding almost immediately. 100 percent would come back.

Nature, wildlife, water...everything!
We had an amazing stay at tge tinyhpuse. Our family of 5 fit perfectly inside, but the majority of our time was spent outside! Our host, Luke was so generous with the kayaks, dock, and lakefront yard. We had such a relaxing time watching the deer, swans, and songbirds. Our kids loved the kayaks. All in all, a great getaway. We hope to return!

Beautiful location
Great location, easy to find and right in the middle of nature. We saw a swan on the lake and from the tiny house we saw deer, a sandhill crane and even a black squirrel. The house itself was immaculate and worked great for our family trip.

Beautiful property
The home and the setting are wonderful. The hosts were gracious and kind. Everything you need is provided; kitchen supplies, outdoor seating, fire pit, firewood, kayaks and even a cornhole game. With two beds and a futon couch, a family of six can comfortably stay here. The living space with the futon is great for adults who prefer not to climb up to the loft or who want privacy, which the pocket door allows. The finishes in the home are lovely, the views are terrific, and the lake is fun to explore. We hope to be regular guests here. Thank you to our hosts for a fabulous weekend!

A peaceful, fun retreat
We were so thrilled to find this gem of a property for a weekend away. The tiny house is so incredibly cute and more spacious than I was expecting. The host really thought of everything. You can expect plenty of outdoor space with a fire pit and wood, kayaks for enjoying the lovely lake (if you head to the sand bar, it’s a great time) and wildlife sightings! I would love to stay here again and would highly recommend it to others. For more than two guests, you might want to bring extra pillows and blankets.

Perfect getaway
Our stay at the tiny house was wonderful! It is clean, functional, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kayaks were put to very good use by kids and parents alike. The lake was so peaceful midweek. We played games in the yard and used the fire pit each night after watching the beautiful sunset over the lake. We loved the deer, birds and cats. Luke was attentive and helpful. We hope to go back!

Weekend Getaway
My husband and I rented this tiny home oasis for a weekend trip and to get away from work stressors. This vacation rental did not disappoint. First and foremost the owner was so accommodating, welcoming, very easy to contact for anything and made sure we were enjoying our stay. From the peaceful lake setting to the gorgeous finishes inside the tiny home you will find yourself enjoying every aspect of your stay. The home comes with access to a large green lawn, dock to fish of from, kayaks to use and explore the beautiful lake- we LOVED this part. There is a fire pit, grill and fully stocked kitchen. The A/C works amazing and keeps the tiny house as cold as you wish even when you sleep in the lofts. Speaking of the sleeping- comfy beds, the futon could also be used as a bed and its very comfy as well. If you are looking to unplug, relax, enjoy the lake life this is the place to stay! We will be back! Thanks again for a wonderful weekend!
