The cottage was very nice. Very clean, well kept, modern, comfortable. Better stocked kitchen and bathroom than probably any Vrbo we have rented. Really appreciated not having to bring toilet paper, paper towels, and basic things like salt and pepper. Access to the lake is fantastic! We caught plenty of fish and loved having such easy boat access with the dock right there. We also appreciated not having a long list of chores to complete before we left. The only real con to the property for us was the proximity to neighbors and the smallness of the yard as well as the parking situation. The yard looks bigger in the pictures than it actually is, and the neighbors are nice but very close. (We listened to the neighbor cut down tree stumps with a chain saw right outside the bedroom window for 2 days.) The parking situation was also a little cramped. It’s a shared driveway with the neighbor, and we were blocked in and had to ask them to move once.

This property has everything you could need! We enjoyed our weekend and hope to return during the summer when we can take full advantage of water and activities the area has to offer.

We have stayed in many rentals….none as well stocked as Bayou Bungalow. We try to leave a rental better than we found it … but there was nothing extra we could have done or stocked. Great stay. We would return!

Our family absolutely loved our stay at the cabin on the lake. We were able to catch many fish right from the dock. The water on Hamlin lake was very rough during our stay so we used our kayaks on the bayou and it was perfect. The cabin was fully stocked with EVERYTHING and was very clean. The neighbors are very nice too. We will definitely be back soon!

This house was perfect for 2 couples & 2 kids. I have never rented a house as well stocked as this one. Full kitchen, linens, week supply of paper products, cleaning supplies, trash bags, and even firewood. We really only needed clothes, swimsuits, and boating/fishing gear. Location on middle bayou is great. We will definitely come back to this property the next time we’re in Ludington!!
