Exactly what you think, and that's good
We stayed for half a week this August and it was exactly as described. Just be aware that this is a cabin near the lake, you will have to cross the street to get to the dock and expect lots of insects and spiders to be there too!

Sweet cottage, perfect for family vacation
My family and I stayed at this property and had a great time! The cottage is clean and much more spacious than we realized. We were able to fit 5 adults comfortably. The only downside is that you have to cross the highway to get to the lake, but once you do there is a lovely deck to hang out on. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Stay by lake
Beds and pillows could be more comfortable, maybe a light by front door that doesn't attract the bugs, other than that the place was just what we needed, wanted and it was as described.

Overall decent stay
Property was clean and amenities were as listed. As noted in other reviews, access to the lake is across the old highway and railroad tracks. Water was not great while we were there but we were able to kayak. Not a great swimming location for a family but we used this as a home base for other travels. There is a good State Park on one end of the lake and a County Park on the other. Gaylord was a nice little town with some good restaurants and a really great ice cream spot (Alpine Chocolate Haus). It did get a little warm but the provided fans definitely helped. Also, while not listed as provided - be aware that there are no laundry facilities on property. Overall a good stay and Tad was very responsive to our questions!

Great spot!
We stayed in the 3 bedroom cottage and one of the 2 bedroom cabins which was perfect for our group. Very clean, easy instructions and great location for the family reunion we were attending. Way better than staying at a hotel and more affordable. Bonus was the view of the lake across the street.

Easy Access, plenty of space
We really enjoyed the cabin, it had plenty of room for our snowmobile trailer and extra car. The easy access to the trails was a major advantage, just wish the weather was better for us.

Great cabin and location
Was very impressed with the ease of checking in and out and the cabin itself was relatively clean on the inside. There was some stains on the sheets of the pull out couch and someones lighter stuffed in there but other than that the rest of the cabin was in good condition.
The title and pictures are a little misleading if you dont know hte area. The cabin itself is not on the water but instead you have to walk across a main highway and railroad in order to get to a shared dock area. You find this out when you get the info about the cabin a few days before. Although we did not have any problems with this and were the only ones using the dock i imagine a family with kids probably would not want to be crossing that road all the time.
Overall great experience for our group and we enjoyed our stay!

Friends vacation
My friends & I stayed at this adorable cottage! It's nicely renovated & in a decent area. However, I was fairly disappointed with the availability of necessities. We were left with ONE roll of toilet paper for 6 people and had to go out and buy more on our own. There were no trash bags left to replace the trash we took out. The cottage was also extremely HOT with no AC

Don't be scared by the first impression. Surrounding cabins look rough which made our first impression leary. However, as soon as we walked inside we were completely delighted! Very clean, spacious bedrooms, nice layout. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location but adjacent properties are run down. Cottage was clean and well appointed. Perfect size for our group. Our only issue was the ants in the kitchen. Would definitely rent again.
