Adorable lake property offering a peaceful spot for kayaking, fishing, and swimming. Quiet, (except for the little bit of highway noise that probably wouldn’t bother most unless you’re country folk used to the absolute quiet like us) shallow, lake perfect for relaxation. Great bass, bluegill, and perch fishing right off the dock. Sandy beach area is great for kids. Clear, clean water. We all enjoyed using the two kayaks (one single, one double) to paddle around the lake. We didn’t use fire pit, but it has chairs to seat everyone, as do the two tables on the deck. Grills are a great addition and we used the Blackstone to cook every day. Basement is unfinished but the weights and Peleton kept my teenage boys happy. Two washers and dryers helped us keep up with laundry before the next leg of our trip. Kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need to cook all your meals, including extras other rentals might not have. Johannesburg is close and so is Gaylord. Lots to do in the area! Would recommend!

The cabin worked out great for our winter ski trip. It was a short drive to Treetops and Otsego, and was clean and comfortable for 4 adults and 5 kids. The bunkbed room was great for the kids. We could have used a couple extra blankets but that was a very minor issue. The owner was very responsive and accommodating.

We had a great time even know the weather was not perfect. This property comes well stocked and has lots of extras to keep you having fun. Close to a couple of local places to eat and get a few groceries, firewood etc. I would rent this property again.Thank you for the stay.
