Quick "spring break" getaway cut a day short for processing issues but the property is marvelous. Close to shopping, the UP, restaurants. Really enjoyed this brief respite. Clean rooms, secure parking and the side lot gives room for play. A property I hope to return to.

2 days away time with family for mothers 70th birthday
Great experience all in all! Otsego lake offers amazing beauty in the fall. With busy lives it was nice to take a few days with family even though the weather wasn’t the best as wind was 19mph on lake Saturday hosts were gracious enough to let us leave our cars in driveway late while we went for extended boat ride on Sunday, dock was more than accommodating for our tritoon , overall great experience

Our stay at this lake house was great! Wonderful accommodations for children. John was responsive and even took out more accommodations for young ones once he knew the ages of my littles. The view of the lake is absolutely gorgeous. Just steps from doorstep to water. We enjoyed the personal beach too. It’s much bigger than I expected. Many memories made. We’re thankful.

Great Stay!
We had a great time staying at this cottage for 5 nights! We typically rent once a year on a lake in Northern MI and have never had such a great yard at a lake house. We didn't realize what a bonus that was! The owners were very responsive and hospitable. They provided little gifts for the kiddos, too sweet! The house was stocked with most of what we could need, which made our stay a breeze. Our kids (1-5 years old) also absolutely loved Call of the Wild in Gaylord, so be sure to check that out! Thank you!

Lake house on the water
Lake house on the water Was exactly as stated, on the water! Small sandy beach area with beautiful, clean lake water where anyone who has children or a dog would enjoy watching them play all day. Please remember such as the pictures and description indicate, there is not a kitchen table. There was a built-in countertop and wooden stools surrounding the kitchen nook, per say, which we utilized when eating. It actually gave you an opportunity to look out the windows at the lake when eating. Kitchen is small but we made the best of it. Everything worked out well and the owners are great with communication!

This was our 2nd time staying at this home and it did not disappoint. It's so clean and has everything you need so no need to overpack. The lake is beautiful and the property has a great beach to play in the sand and swim in the lake. I'm sure we will be back again!
