Modern, Cozy Pet-friendly Retreat + Extra Parking

StephanieRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

Melanie was a fantastic host with a beautiful home. She was so very helpful in a really difficult situation. She was proactive with a lot of helpful information, responsive when we had questions, and was understanding when we had to leave early. This place would be wonderful to visit in the summer when we're on an actual vacation. Great access to the park and lake, the yard was great for our kids and dogs. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a nice small town getaway.

Private Lakefront Large Lot, Renovated w/King Beds

LizRating, 5 stars1 month ago

❤️ Definitely coming back if I have the opportunity. Used this as a get away for myself. While there are reviews on here where they did things- I literally just stayed in the whole time. So I shall speak about the home itself. Very warm and inviting. Plenty of space and locations for variety of seating and work space. Many different windows for viewing (though I will say that the kitchen and living do not have blinds). The dining room/king sized bedroom/room with hanging chair has amazing lake views. ❤️ Also! Neighbors are nice- which is a good thing.

Owl & Anchor Cottage Inn - Lake Front Retreat!

StacyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We stayed at this charming cottage for a weekend with our family of 11, ranging from 17 to 74 years old. It was the perfect place for all of us to come together and enjoy quality time in a peaceful setting. The booking process was quick and easy, and check-in was seamless. From the moment we arrived, we felt immediately welcomed by the host, who had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. The cottage was incredibly neat and tidy. I personally loved that there were limited televisions, which meant we spent more time playing family games and bonding. The cottage was very well-stocked with all the essentials, and we never felt like we were missing anything. Situated in a peaceful and beautiful area, the cottage offered a relaxing atmosphere perfect for unwinding. Although it rained the entire weekend, it didn’t dampen the fun—there was still plenty to enjoy indoors, and the scenery was stunning, even from the comfort of the cottage.

Fly Rods on Big Creek

LisaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This home is a little slice of heaven. The view of the creek and all the trees is just what we needed for a change of scenery in March. The 4 seasons room with all the windows was the best place to hang out and had the most comfortable couch. The openness of the entire house helped us feel like we were all together all of the time. Being able to bring our dog was also a bonus. There's a door right on the deck with steps to the yard for the dog. She had a blast exploring the property! I would have thought that a place that allowed dogs would have had a dog smell, but it didn't at all. You'd never know that other dogs had stayed there. It snowed about 3 inches while we were there, and a snow shovel was left on the porch for us, which we did use. Anything and everything that you could possibly need was provided. I brought a few kitchen things I needed (like a hand mixer and kitchen brush for food), only to find that they had those items there! They literally provided everything!

Crazy Loon Lakefront Cottage - Lake George

JessicaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We loved the stay it was peaceful and beautiful. The kids had a blast on the paddle boat and with it being right next to the lake we could hear the wildlife at night. The parking was a bit tight but we figured it out and enjoyed our stay.

3BR cottage in walking distance to Houghton Lake!

JonRating, 5 stars26 months ago

Our stay was a very positive one. The hospitality of both the owners and managers was fantastic. Managers lived right across the street which was super convenient just in case they were needed. The home was well furnished, cutely decorated and it was very home like. We had an overall great experience!

Houghton Lake Escape

DonnyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Perfect for a fishermans getaway. A few minutes drive from multiple boat launches for Houghton lake. Tons of good restaurants also within a few minutes away. Family fare right around the corner for those that need to do some shopping for forgotten essentials, or those who want to pick up food to cook for themselves. The place was very clean, and comfortable environment. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. 10/10 would book again!

Firehouse Cabin & Garage, By Lake and ORV Trails

PaulRating, 5 stars6 months ago

Dane’s house is a nice tidy place. Everything you could need and more was there for you. More than we were expecting for sure. Loved the firehouse theme! It was close to the trails and that was great too. We would definitely stay again.
