Summary: My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the "Yellow Bucket". Indeed, the cottage was charming. This place had everything we needed. Loved the lake view and the sandy beach was awesome. We couldn't of asked for anything better. We loved the walks down the street and just taking in all the up north feelings we could get in. We had a wonderful time and we will be back soon. Thank you...

Summary: We just left a week that was just what our family needed! Time together on our favorite lake, a great little beach and clean water for our 2 year old granddaughter, pontoon rides, hummingbirds, Eagles, and more. This home, combined with the little red cottage we also rented, gave us a cozy place to stay and relax. The owners were accessible, friendly, and helpful. Beds and furniture were comfortable and clean. The bathrooms are small and night time sleeping was tough several days due to hot conditions and rain. But fans were available and things improved throughout the week. I would recommend this little gem for a relaxing getaway. We plan to return.

Summary: What a wonderful week! Despite bad weather for a few days we enjoyed the cabin. The lake was clean with a sandy bittom. The cabin was rustic chic and have everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of dishes. Bring a HDMI cable if you want to watch Netflix on a rainy day. Large fire pit. Nice neighbors. If you go check out Douglas Lake Bar. Great food but you n you s a reservation. This cabin is close to many activities including miles and miles of bike trails. 1/2 he drive from Perosky, Maxkinaw City, Indian River, Chenoygan. Also close to Charlie pix and Harnor Springs. Owners were very responsive. Will defiantly stay here again!

Summary: We had not stayed on Douglas Lake before. Loved the lake and this cottage was perfect, both for the location and the condition. Super clean and cozy, well stocked with everything we needed. Loved being able to just step out the door to sit by the lake and enjoy the views. Clear water, sandy bottom and shallow water were really enjoyed by our grandchildren when they dropped by from their nearby cottage. We have rented cottages in Michigan many times and Douglas Lake has been the best!

Summary: Our family had a great visit at the Beach Bucket! The description of the cabin was accurate, very clean and well maintained. The kitchen is well stocked. Two things I would caution are 1) shower is very small but definitely useable and 2) sofa bed needs a better mattress. We had one very light weight adult use it for a night and she couldn’t sleep at all. I’d recommend an air mattress over using it. We enjoyed the view of the lake, fire pit, very nice dock, and paddle boat. We didn’t try the kayaks mostly due to weather conditions. Be sure to read up on the Douglas lake ahead of the trip. The location is prime with easy access to other major cities. Be sure to make reservations at the Douglas Lake Bar which is three doors down- great steaks! Would visit again!

Summary: The home is very clean and is larger than expected. Really enjoyed the lake, kayaks and long dock. Setting and neighbors very quiet and pleasant. Close to the bridge and other UP attractions. Heads-up: don't miss the Amish baked goods nearby on Thursdays.

Summary: For context we were staying with our kids and another couple, 6 in total. The property itself is terrific, you have abeautiful scenic waterfront property. The lake is clean and clear with a sandy bottom. Every morning was an exceptional sunrise and every evening we watched the moon come up. Very low light pollution so the night sky was very visible. Overall I’d stay here again but there are a few items that are worth mentioning. 1) beds need updating. In the bedroom behind the kitchen the springs squeak in the mattress. The bedroom with the bathroom the floor slants as does the angle of the bed 2) the pictures show an en-suite bathroom but i don’t recall the description or pictures mentioning that the bedroom was thru the bathroom via the door in the living room. Worth noting as could be an inconvenience or uncomfortable for others. Overall not a huge deal to us just had to check before using the bathroom or going to your bedroom. 3) the wall heater in the living room wasn’t working. We plugged it in and turned it on via the wall but no heat came out made for a cold evening(s). In fairness we didn’t contact the owner to solve but just made do.
