Summary: Easy check in, clean, pictures are accurate. Great Wi-Fi. No AC, but lake breeze with the supplied fans did a good job of keeping the cabin cool.Lake is busy during the day, however no wake takes effect at 7:30 pm, and was largely adhered to by boaters/jet skiers.Sandy bottom from property, nice swimming. Wish the dock was longer with an area (L shape) that two could sit in chairs and enjoy the lake.One cabin is very close to this property, but no one was at that place during out stay so we enjoyed privacy on the deck and fire pit area.Would stay again. However, if the cabin next door was occupied it would not be as pleasant of a stay.

Summary: The pictures give an accurate representation of the cottage. Shade kept the cottage cool during the hot weather, the lake had a nice sandy bottom. We only used the downstairs bedrooms, but those beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of hot water for our group of 3. The kitchen was well stocked for our cooking needs.

Summary: The lake, cottage, location were all fabulous. We love our northern Michigan get aways and this one is now towards the top of our list. Crystal clear lake for swimming, fishing and water sports. Close to a tubing trip down the Manistee, a visit to Shortts Brewery, the Hideway bar (great food and service), and so much more. Definitely recommend.

Summary: We stayed in October so not a lot of noise on the lake. Very pretty fall colors & sunsets. We would like to go again in the summer to enjoy the lake more.

Summary: Cozy cabin on big twin Lakes. This cabin is perfect for a midsize group who’s planning to be outside all weekend. Property could be updated, and some small things could be added to make things more comfortable, such as a dehumidifier and better toiletries and towels. The lake is beautiful and quiet, the rowboat supplied was out of commission, but overall we had a wonderful time.

Summary: What an awesome cottage! My family of 4 stayed there. Not big but plenty of room for us. We brought our 18ft searay, which fit perfectly at the dock....make sure you bring bumpers and good ropes as the lake gets rough with boat traffic during the day. No wake before 11am and after 730pm which is njce for night crusies or fishing. Everything you need is at the cottage, the only thing that could be upgraded is the grill....it is a small tabke top camping grill, that uses the little green camping propanes. I grill a lot and it worked perfectly but is very small and would have been great to have a larger one so i didnt have to cook in shifts. That would be the only negative.

Summary: Very quiet and relaxing vacation for our Family of 4. Cabin was clean & outfitted with all the necessities. Beautiful lake, fantastic view off the porch, through the trees, especially at sunset. 1 1/2 bath was convenient. WiFi and satellite worked well. The top deck was great for morning coffee, listening to the loons, books in the afternoon. Dock was the best for stars and sunsets. Could use a new stairway into the water. Clean, clear, sand bottom lake was spectacular to be understated. We brought kayaks but the provided rowboat was a plus. Very little boat, jetski traffic on the lake. So a row to the middle for a beer and some fishing was calming. Boat could use a new oar guide. Overall vacation was a winner. Would recommend this location.
