Summary: Fabulous cottage that was perfect for our family! We loved coming back to Birch lake and the community of cottages was so welcoming. Close to Village market and Elk Rapids. Shallow water with sandy bottom was great for 10 year old, while my husband and older boys loved kayaking around the lake. The wildlife (loons, ducks, and even a turkey) was just amazing to watch while relaxing by the lake. Stephanie was very helpful and responsive to questions. We can’t wait to visit again next year!

Summary: This property was perfect for a week to enjoy family and the lake. I couldn't have asked for a better location or weather for the week. The lake was warm and the sandy beach entrance and gradual change on water depth was great for my grand daughter to play on the water. Overall my family had a wonderful time.

Summary: Stephanie was excellent at getting back to us with questions and was very helpful. If you are looking for quiet, peaceful, laid back, this is perfect. If you need to be entertained maybe not your place. It was cold and wet when we were here, kids would not have done will. The beach area is beautiful, fire pit is great and has a nice gas grill. If you come for water sports there are lakes everywhere. The lake at house is small and shallow, very clean and sandy, perfect for smaller kids and fishing. But big lakes are very close for fast boats. A couple things there were missing in the listing to be aware of. There is no air or heat. There are box fans and shade on lake side of house. Not sure if fans are enough because it wasn't got when we were here. There is a small electric heater. It got down to 48 one night when we were here and it heater the place up nicely. We kept it on most of the time because it was wet and chilly all week. You do need to keep the porch closed to hear thing up. We were here for relaxation and catch up time and it was perfect for us.

Summary: Great location right on the lake for this family friendly cottage. There are kayaks and a dock for mooring a boat. The lake has a bit of a sandy beach and the water is clean and shallow for children. The cottage is roomy for a family and has a separated porch area for play or relaxation. Just a few minutes away from downtown Elk Rapids and the Shorts' production facility and Pull Barn open during the summer months. Located in a quaint lakeside neighborhood that begs to be walked.

Summary: We had a chance to stay at this lakefront cottage recently and it was just exactly what he needed. From the minute we walked in we felt right at home. Waking up and walking out on the dock to watch the sun rise was so peaceful, the lake was like glass. The water is so clear and it's shallow for a long way out, which is nice. Even when it rained we enjoyed the lake from the screened-in porch. We loved the "diner" style table and played cards to our hearts content. The kids enjoyed watching DVD's and playing with the Wii games. The cottage itself is simple and clean and decorated in warm, inviting colors. We appreciated the fact that there were two bathrooms also. If you stay here you really should check out the library in Elk Rapids which is right on the hill at the Marina. It has an enclosed porch with rocking chairs where you can read and look out on to Lake Michigan. We loved the pizza at Chef Charles and all the little shops and boutiques in town. There is a public beach in town that is lovely and we took long walks there as well. There is a hardware and pharmacy, a coffee shop and bakery-what more could we need? The Village Market grocery store was close by too and they carried a great variety. We try to bring up as much food as we can, but it's good to know that there is a place close by that has anything you might need. At the end of our stay we didn't want to leave. We have rented various places in the past but will definitely be booking our week here for next year-this place is a gem!
