Perfect area for watching the sunrise.

We love staying at this location! The fishing was awesome. The house has been remodeled, very comfortable living and dining room, and has all the appliances you could want. The area it is in is close to a park, a very popular restaurant, and all the people on the island are very friendly. The dock is new, and it is an easy in and out for your boat. We have rented this location six times and have never been disappointed. We will be back next year!!

Great little cottage that sleeps many

The cottage was clean, updated, comfortable and very efficiently laid out. Great to have a washer dryer and dishwasher! My daughters and their friends loved having the upstairs loft all to themselves with 3 queen beds and a twin there was a bed for everyone! And the small bathroom upstairs was great to have. We love the location right on the lake with easy access on and off the boat dock. We enjoyed being right on the water and spent much of our time outside. Bonus - The neighbors on both sides were great! Only complaint, the water had a terrible smell (rotten eggs) I know it’s on a well, but this seemed extreme- maybe the salt was low on the soft water tank? It did improve minimally as the days went on (either that or we got use to it). It was unpleasant to even shower or wash dishes in. Other than that, everything was great and we had a wonderful time! We are enjoyed staying at your property!!

Perfect family getaway!

What an adorable little cottage. Perfect size for the six of us. We were virgin boaters and this was the perfect place to start. It had everything we needed and we came prepared. The neighbors were so very friendly. We did experience quite a bit of algae initially but we were able to find spots that were much better. I really love Indian lake so I hope to see it get better and better as the years go on. I would definitely stay here again! We hope to see you soon. Thank you-

Nice house

Nice house, in a great location. Very nice neighbors next door. The temperature control others described was not an issue for us. The beds upstairs (the 2 in the window area) had old, broken down box springs. I am only assuming the mattress on each bed was older, too. They were not comfortable, (at all) for a full night of sleep. The downstairs bed was comfortable, my friend said. The description clearly stated no linens provided, so there was no surprise there. We came prepared. Neither my friend or I have ever rented a house with a “bring your own linens” policy. When you add up all the blankets, sheets and kitchen/bath towels needed, it is extra to pack, and takes a lot of car space when packing. There was plenty of TP, no extra paper towels, empty salt/pepper, almost empty dish soap, and missing hand soap in upstairs and kitchen sinks. We probably could have called for some, but made do with what we brought. The owner and his brother were easy to reach and responded quickly to a couple of questions. The firewood was plentiful, with a portable fireplace, which was nice. The outside space was great, as was the lake view from inside. Would I book again? Maybe, if the 2 beds I tried upstairs were replaced. Tossing and turning all night and waking up with a backache every morning was disappointing. Oh, and don’t ask for a late checkout if you need one (for a very legitimate reason.) It won’t happen, despite not being booked again that night. You’ll pay for another full night

Very clean and well maintained. We don't have anything but good things to say about the house. But, we were disappointed by the lake this year. Last year it was very clear, this year it was like pea soup.

Perfect!

Great waterfront property on Indian lake! A group of 6 stayed here, including an infant. Plenty of space indoors on rainy days to relax and enjoy the view. Large kitchen was great for cooking. Master bedroom is on the first floor, good for less able guests. Loft has tons of sleeping space, and while the cielings were a bit low (peaked roof loft), it is very manageable. There was A/C up there so it was pleasant. We were able to (very tightly) squeeze 2 trucks with bass boats, and one additional truck in the driveway, so it would comfortably hold 4 vehicles. Highlight of the property is the back yard. Cement patio with just enough grass leads right up to the water. Table with umbrella, grill, and fire pit make for great outdoor activities all day long. Docked both 20ft boats during stay at the property's private dock with no issue, bumpers were even provided! Very impressed.

Location is perfect

The cottage is in a great spot on Tecumseh Island. The neighbors on both sides are extremely kind. Master bedroom was very comfortable. The outside area was perfect for our needs. It was nice having firewood supplied by the owner. Sadly the lake is so clean/clear it is struggling with weed grass recently. This made fishing at the property impossible. That was the reason for our trip, convenience of fishing on open water at the property. Thankfully the State is working hard to rectify the problem. While we were not able to fish we still were able to enjoy ourselves. Having Cranberry's so close is a big plus. I would highly recommend this rental for any couples looking for a getaway.

The home was accurate to the description. We did find an old muffin in the upstairs bedroom but I am sure it was from a child and it was simply missed. Overall we enjoyed our trip and it was perfect size for our family of 5 and our dog. The neighbors were very nice also. We will be staying again.
