I reserved and paid for a two bedroom cabin on the Lake. Upon checking in, I was told that the cabin was no longer available because the two guys renting it were in town for work that their stay was exteneded. I was offered a room across the street or a one bedroom cabin with a pullout sofa. I asked about a credit and was told that I would receive a free night's stay; which I did not receive prior to checking out. I did not get what I paid for. the one bedroom cabin was subpar
Amazing experience. Beautiful little group of cabins on a private beach just a few steps from Lake Huron. Couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be back!
Management went out of their way to make it a great experience for my family. Beach is wonderful and clean . Service and cleaning was phenomenal. Will definitely stay there again

We enjoyed our time here. We felt very comfortable with our lodging and our afternoon on the beach was fantastic! Just what we were looking for.
We only stayed for one night. The website says check in is 5pm which I thought was a bit late. They did contact us a couple hours early and let us check in which was a nice surprise. The beach is so cute. My five year old played for hours. We didn’t get to utilize the fire pits but I thought that was such a nice feature. The cabin has everything you could need for your stay. The resort seemed to be about half full but we didn’t hear any noises throughout the night. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because there was a lot of stains on the top blanket on the bed. It made me slightly nervous for the quality of the cleaning.
Way over priced. Old furniture, run down cabin like it has not been updated for many years, including cabinetry, windows, paint, TV, etc. Wanted to get coffee creamer at 8 15 AM, but no one at the office. Had to walk through spider web to get into the cabin. For that much money I could have stayed at the hotel 200 yards away.
I really enjoyed my time there, it was exactly what you expect from a Michigan cottage. The resort is under be ownership, I hasn’t stayed the whole it was under previous the previous owners. Lou was great he made sure everything was taken care of they went above and beyond.
Lou was a very kind, helpful and great prior to, during and after our stay. The home was cute, comfortable and nicely stocked with plates, towels and kitchen necessities. Though the linens on the pull out couch needed to be removed prior to use and the floors had some debris left behind, the courteousness of the staff, early check in, accommodation and kindness made it a for sure return spot for us. I assume low ratings come from mismatch furniture or the location maybe being more ideal for “elderly” clients not liking some things; but I found it cute, comfortable and charming. Literally steps from a beach, free firewood and pit, a little slide and swing for little ones was a bonus. Though the shower fixtures need an upgrade and some tweaking (which my plumber husband and I will be offering to help with next stay btw), After a horrible winter storm and seeking safe haven, Lou provided a well needed safe space for my family and we are unbelievably grateful and thrilled to stay again this summer.
The place we stayed at was fantastic. I spent the weekend there with five of my friends and it was a great experience. We had plenty of room to sleep with the two king beds, three twin beds, a futon and a couch. The kitchen was very convenient for when we got hungry and didn’t want to leave the house.
Lou, the person we rented the house from, made the stay a good one. He gave me his personal cell number and was very flexible with our check in and check out time. He also gave us a house tour and provided us with information about what was happening in the area. Lou was very nice and added to the quality of our trip.
