Upper Hamlin Lake All Seasons Cottage
About this cottage rental
Nestled in Hamlin Lake, this attractive cottage for R 2,479 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Come enjoy our cottage nestled in the Manistee National Forest on the sunny north shore of upper Hamlin Lake. The cottage is only 13 years old with like new furnishings and is very neat, CLEAN, and disinfected after/before each guest. You will enjoy a panoramic view of the entire upper lake and awesome sunsets over the dunes right from shore. Fishing is great right off the 40 foot dock which is also available to tie up your boat. Boating, swimming, skiing, hiking, wine tasting, and other fun activities are waiting just for you! There is also a shared lakeside firepit for your use. Lake Michigan is minutes away for an afternoon picnic or swim. Golfing at some of the state's finest courses is close by. Or, for those who like more physical activity, bring your bikes for riding on the miles of trails in the National Forest. If you prefer peace and quiet, bring a good book to read while sipping on your favorite beverage in a provided lounge chair by the lake! If you are looking for 2 cottages in close proximity, this cottage sleeps 2-3 and The Shadows 2 on Hamlin Lake sleeps 2 comfortably! (See separate VRBO listing #367496) Great for friends and/or families who like to vacation together but sleep/stay in different quarters. It all awaits you at The Shadows on Hamlin Lake. We live on the property, adjacent to this cottage which is approximately 200 feet from the waters edge. The last 5 miles of your journey to our cottage will be on a gravel road where you will see only nature at it’s finest, no houses or street lights. Age requirement for staying at our cottages is 16 years and up.

It was good to arrive in the daytime, the cottage is in the woods, and the driveway winds through them. However, the directions were spot on, no problem. The drive takes you through a long canopy of trees; the fall leaves were spectacular! The setting is beautiful: in a forest, on a lake, very peaceful and quiet. The cottage is immaculately clean, well appointed, and the has a nice view of the lake from the balcony. It is about a 30 minute drive to the small towns of Ludington and Manistee, both of which are chasing and have Michigan lakefronts with lighthouses. Our host was communicated well and was very attentive to any needs. I highly recommend this cottage.

My husband and I took a weekend trip to the Ludington area, but wanted a quiet place to stay outside of the city. This was the perfect fit! The cottage is VERY clean and we loved how it was right on the water. Deb was one of the best hosts we have had. We are already looking forward to the next time we visit.

Quaint cottage. Steps away from the lake. Property butts up to the lake so you can sit at the lake with a great view. Provided with full kitchen.
5.0
Great rental. Off the beaten path but worth the little extra effort. Well maintained rentals and grounds in a great spot to watch the sun go down over the dunes each evening. Deb and Mark Hulst are caring hosts that look to your every need while staying at one of their two rental cabins. Hosts also live on the grounds and are accessible if needed.

This place is off the beaten path and absolutely magical. It’s beautiful and so relaxing. A Lake Michigan beach is also nearby and hardly anyone was there. We originally wanted to be located right in Ludington and had no idea how much better THIS was for our vacation. Even better we were accessible to BOTH Manistee and Ludington from this cabin in the woods. Our hosts were wonderful…very kind, helpful and responsive. It was a little slice of heaven from beginning to end.

Great quiet place, just what we wanted
5.0
My partner and I had a wonderful time at Deb's cabin. The cabin itself is cozy and had everything we needed. It's nice and tucked away from the main hustle and bustle of town, which allowed us to fully relax and just enjoy being in the woods on the lake. Deb was also a wonderful host and was right on the property if we needed anything. My partner and I would absolutely stay here again.

I wanted to spend some time with my daughters before college started up again. We wanted somewhere we could drive and that didn’t break the bank. We’d never been to northern Michigan. The cottage was homey and we enjoyed sitting on the deck that overlooks the lake. It is remote and we liked that. The dunes close by we’re breathtaking and we had fun on the beaches and a day trip to Traverse City.

We were happy to return to this cottage we rented 10 years ago and find it exactly as we remembered it. Exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully furnished. The hosts are responsive and accommodating. We intend to return in less than 10 years!
5.0
Just what we needed for a brief getaway to unwind. Cottage is spotless and has all you need and then some. Off the beaten path, and that's nice for those wanting some quiet refreshment. Highly recommend. Nearby National Park (Nordhouse Dunes) was nearly deserted on this summer Friday, so we had the place practically to ourselves.

A very well cared for, very well equipped, and beautiful cabin. Our stay was one of the most enjoyable that we have had. I would recommend this cabin to anyone.

What a lovely clean cottage. Perfect location with all the trails one could want. Great fishing location. The property manager, Deb, was an excellent communicator throughout. Thanks for letting us stay!
5.0
The host, Deb, was a wonderful host! Everything was clean and ready for use. The property is so nice and quiet, my spouse and I thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We did use the firepit and there was something so relaxing about sitting under the trees, next to a quiet lake and enjoying the beautiful sunset. I highly recommend this place to anyone searching for peace and quiet.

This little cottage was just perfect for two adults. Absolutely clean and had everything that was needed for a nice stay. Kitchen well stocked with top line cooking ware. Host was very nice and made sure we were set after the over night snow. We will be back at some point.

Beautiful area to get away from everything. We enjoyed fishing off the dock, taking our kayaks out on the lake, and the quiet. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. About 20-30 minutes from Ludington and Manistee. Close enough to go apple picking and visit relatives. Would definitely recommend!

Deb & Mark were wonderful hosts with great communication. I course I got lost when I was almost there, which Deb stayed on the phone with me until I arrived. Our cottage was so cute, very clean plus everything we could possibly need. I just loved the covered porch with the view of the lake. Looking forward to staying again 🙂

Beautiful setting
Quiet and beautiful setting. Yes, it is remote (25 minutes into Ludington), but worth the drive if you are looking for a quiet setting. Turn by turn directions where easy to follow. Awake to the birds, saw deer and could easily stay connected using the satellite WiFi (was able to work and handle video meetings with ease). Cottage is super clean and had everything I needed to cook meals. Gas grill was a plus! Enjoyed the deck, balcony and waterfront chairs. Hope to stay here again. Deb and Mark are great hosts.

This cottage was clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed to make simple meals. The furniture was comfortable. The outside area is very nice also - plenty of chairs to sit on by the lake and a nice fire pit to enjoy at night. The area is quiet and a great place to enjoy the outdoors!
The owners were easy to reach and made sure we had good directions to find the cottage.
