Had a few downsides but was overall a good stay
Publié le 30 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayPros
-Lovely location on the water with a view from the back of the house of a marina and the river with ducks, geese, and beautiful sunsets
-House was clean and had everything we needed in terms of bedding, kitchenware, towels
-Enjoyed the hot tub that seated 4 people comfortably and the arcade machine
-2nd floor porch was a favorite location for reading
-Solo Stove was fun for smores and fireside chats
Cons
-Listing mentions the house is next to a house that will be under construction from June - October. It does not mention that the house next door is no more than 5 feet from the rental house and that as of the end of Sept, the house is still being framed (i.e., unlikely to be complete in Oct.). No work was done on the house while we were there, but a constant sound of flapping house wrap could be heard while on either patio and from inside the second floor bedroom on the back of the house.
-Listing does not mention the condo building under construction two properties away for which construction began as early as 7am. Construction equipment and supplies including a tractor are parked directly in front of the house blocking the view of the marina. When standing at the kitchen sink to wash dishes, I did not enjoy my view of construction equipment.
-Kayaks were appreciated, but were very dirty. Could benefit from a hose down before guests arrive. Also need to mark which oars go together.
-Dish drying rack is much too small given there is no dishwasher

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed review! We’re so pleased to hear that you enjoyed many aspects of your stay, including the scenic location, the hot tub, the Solo Stove, and the 2nd floor porch for reading and relaxation. It’s great to know that you found the house clean and well-stocked with everything you needed.
We also appreciate your feedback on the construction next door and want to provide some clarification for future guests. The house under construction is located 15 feet away, not 5 feet as mentioned. The construction fence is located about 5 feet from the cottage, which marks the property line on the west side. This is taking place on the left side of the cottage if you’re looking at the river. Additionally, there is no construction equipment on our property from the road to the river, so the view of the marina and river remains unobstructed for the entirety of our river frontage. We understand that the presence of nearby construction may affect your experience differently, and while we've done our best to balance this with reduced rates, we encourage guests to reach out if they are unsure whether our property will meet their needs during this period.
We've been informed that due to the approaching winter, outdoor construction activities are expected to conclude by the end of October 2024. Should there be any changes, we will update all future guests accordingly.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back once all construction is complete!

Nice cottage a half hour boat ride away from the lake
Publié le 19 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayWe enjoyed a nice long weekend stay and were able to bring our boat and our dog. Nice parking with plenty of room for our trailer, our car and a guests car when needed. The public boat launch is only 10 minutes away.
The cottage is dated but has a nice updated bathroom downstairs. Only a queen bed in the small downstairs bedroom made it kinda tight. The ceiling fan needed cleaned. Turned it and leading edge dust buildup blew on the bed. The stairs going to the upstairs bedrooms were small and tight. The bedrooms upstairs smelled really smoky. I was not able to sleep up there. It was nice to have the boat dock in the backyard. But the slip next to our executive dock had a WaveRunner covered with duck poop And resident ducks wanting to share the dock. You will also need a lot of patience on your half hour boat ride out to Lake Michigan. In my 40 years of boating I have never been yelled at, flipped off, and harassed so much for going too fast or,too slow it was not as fun as it could have been.

Thanks for the review, I'm glad you had a nice stay.
Our cleaning crew has been notified of the fans and takes pride in the cleanliness of the cottage. The previous guest accidentally left the balcony door open while they had a campfire. We've since remedied the smell.
Your boating experience, while not under our control, is uncharacteristic for the area. As any water enthusiast will attest, the ducks and geese are something every boater has to deal with. We are in their territory after all.
I will say, the river is a posted no wake zone. All boaters should take this seriously. So yes, if you weren't following posted instructions, the locals may try to correct the behavior before damage to their own vessels occur.

Awesome Stay. As advertised and then some.
Publié le 5 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayI don't know if this property is newly remodeled but for a VRBO property it was in amazing shape and super clean. It was everything as advertised. If it was walking distance to town it would have been over the top. We would definitely stay again. I don't know if Kathy lives on her phone but she answered every email immediately. Maybe the most professionally run VRBO we ever visited. Thank you!!
