Our stay at the cottage was absolutely lovely. From kayaking to hiking in the national forest nearby the outdoors was equally as beautiful as the cozy cottage. Everything was clean, well kept, and had the perfect touch of beach house mixed with home. It was so nice for my girlfriends and I have to have a nice, relaxing vacation from our fast paced lives, and Mecosta was the perfect change of scenery from Chicago. Stephen and Kelly were very thoughtful and we really appreciated their hospitality. The cozy cottage is the perfect place for a quiet weekend away and we can't wait to be back! Life really is better by the lake ❤

Comfortable, cozy stay at a convenient location for our family. Nice to return to the same cottage and know we were being well cared for. Thank you, Stephen!

The cottage was exactly as expected. Clean, cozy, and well maintained. Everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the kitchen all weekend and appreciated all of the supplies in the well-stocked cupboards. There was plenty of beds for my large family.

We had a great time at Steve & Kelli's place. He was great with communication and worked with us to modify our plans. The space worked out super and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen setup worked great and we really appreciated having the spices and other cooking supplies. We also had fun playing some of the games available. Thanks for the note and the dinner recommendation as the Blue Lake Tavern had an awesome burrito special.

We had a perfect stay at the Cozy Lake Cottage.

This place was AMAZING!! My newlywed wife and I stayed here on our Honeymoon night. Stephen was very welcoming and understanding as we wouldn't be able to check in until late. Him and his wife also left a bottle of Champagne in the fridge and a nice note. Overall this place was great!

Perfect little cabin. Right across the street from the lake with a lovely little dock. Grocery store within a 3 minute drive. Easy to take my boat in and out. Stephen was very friendly and accommodating. Exactly what my family and I wanted for a weekend on the water!!

Had a great time, it was just what we were looking for.

Our family had an excellent time staying at this house. We were able to have fun in the lake every day, enjoyed the occasional outdoor campfire, and had plenty of room inside to play our card and board games. I personally loved the 2nd floor kitchen and the surrounding open space on the remainder of that floor. There was either a bedroom or a personal space for every one of our 5 "sub families." All the boating toys were excellent! I loved the rowboat in particular. All told, this has been one of our best vacation spots yet.

Amazing place....lots of open space and rooms. The cottage is on a Great Lake with lots of water sports to pick from!! I Definitely recommend the cottage to anyone looking to stay in the area.

We have stayed in many vacation homes with our family of 12 and this was by far the best! The house was clean and beautiful. The setting on the peninsula was ideal and the amenities were generous. We definitely plan to re-book this place again.

We had a fantastic stay at Laura's home. The house was even more spacious than what was described; it was a great location for a family gathering. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

We enjoyed the beautiful home and all of our 3 families, including the children, had a great time! We will remember this vacation and the memories created for a long time to come. Would love to return in the future!

Great Place in a great area!

Great family venue!

Scott was at the house to greet me and my group, and was finishing up some things (putting towels on the bed, mowing the lawn, etc). He was very friendly and even made a trip back to the house to help me open the shed that had a cornhole game and extra propane. The description and pictures were exactly as described. The house was very nice and you were a great host Scott!

we loved our stay here! It was very clean and came with plenty of towels, bedding and cooking utensils. Unfortunately, we couldn't swim on Round Lake (where the cottage is), but we drove 5 min over to Blue Lake and inner tubed our way to Party Island. We had a nice dinner at a nearby restaurant. In all, it was very nice.

This was a wonderful family vacation spot!! The house is clean, well-maintained, and easy to get to. Scott is easily accessible for any questions. The house is well stocked with games if you get a rainy day or for evening family fun. We will be going back next summer!!!

Very nice place! Going back again soon!

What a great experience we had staying at your place Scott. Everything was perfect and the view of the lake from the living room was just amazing. We would definitely visit again !!

Scott was very accommodating. His Lake house was especially clean and easy to get settled in. We had a short visit, but would love to do it again sometime. Def a great place to stay!

The cottage was really nice and clean. Scott was awesome to rent from throughout the entire process and was always helpful and responsive to any questions I had. I would go back again we had a great time!

The description of the place was accurate and the place was so clean! Clean towels were even laid out for all the guests. He had everything ready and organized when we arrived. Pots and pans were available for use, there was free wifi, and in the shed he had chairs to use for the bonfire pit as well as a cornhole game. Also to our surprise he had a whole rockband setup to play, which everyone loved! Scott also had a manual ready for us, which was very helpful because it listed a nearby beach where we ended up going swimming. Scott was very helpful. He answered my texts very quickly when I had questions. Very happy we stayed here and the group had a blast!! The place is so clean and organized, I would highly recommend!

This house was everything we expected from the post and then some. There was more than enough room for 7 adults to stay comfortably and ended up being an even larger space than what I imagined from the pictures in the posting. This is a house in a neighborhood with lake access and it's exactly what you would expect. Elaine was very easy to communicate with and gave us all of the information that we needed for before our weekend, our stay, and after our stay. We're really hoping to book this house again in the future!

We had a great time at our stay in Canadian Lakes. The house was spotlessly clean and just as described, and the deck and lake were both beautiful. Elaine was very easy to get a hold of and work with. If you are planning a trip to lower Michigan I definitely recommend this Canadian Lakes home!

We truly appreciated our family time together at Elaine's beautiful home. The home was spacious and had everything we needed for our family. Elaine was a great host. She was very considerate of our needs and let us know everything we needed to have a nice and comfortable stay. Plus, the lake views were stunning. I would highly recommend staying here.

Canadian Lakes was beautiful! Elaine's place is the best, very clean, cozy, well equipped, and has a beautiful view of the Lake! Even though the lake was covered with snow during our stay, it was absolutely beautiful! Can't wait to come back in the summertime.

Great spot and beautiful home with a beautiful view!

Home is immaculate. Kitchen has cooking gear and utensils for most purposes. Basement is completely finished with 2 beds, full bath, good sized living room with TV. Plenty of space for 3 couples, or 4 singles would have their own beds. Space for one car in the garage. Deck/back of house overlook one of the par 5 holes on the Highlands course. Very pretty wooded setting. Wife and I spent a week here and played a couple of the Canadian Lakes golf courses (both quite nice), used the pool, exercise facility, etc.

NIce stay! Home was very clean. Will do again.

This is a very pleasant home. Very comfortable and clean.

Very nice host, she makes you feel welcome and invited. Quiet neighborhood with great views of the lake right from your room! Nice sized bathroom attached to the room, and the room itself is very nice and clean. Would stay again!

I can't say enough about how impressed I was with my stay at Holly's AirBNB. I was simply looking for a place to sleep for a few hours between leaving a wedding reception and getting up very early the next morning, but after my short stay I wish I would have checked in days earlier. Not only was she extremely accommodating and nice, but the entire AirBNB was beautiful and had so many amenities available that you would need a few days just to try them all! To start - the AirBNB was the entire basement area of the house. There was a gorgeous bedroom with a huge bathroom attached, convenient living room with a sun room attached, and the best part of all - the lake, which was accessible by merely walking out the doors of the downstairs living room. As soon as we got there, she gave us a tour of our part of the house - along with a binder of everything that was available to us while staying at the house, the most compelling one to me being the paddle boats that were available to take out on the lake! (and that doesn't even include the countless other amenities that were made available to us by use of the guest passes that were left in our room for the neighborhood clubhouse) She had a fully stocked mini-fridge in the room with drinks and snacks, and even a complimentary, homemade breakfast menu that she offered to prepare at anytime you were ready for breakfast. (Which, by the way, was delicious - we chose the breakfast quiche) The rooms were a great size, and the bathroom had a spa-like feel. There were a number of toiletries available in the room in case you forgot anything, as well as a coffee station, ping-pong table, and even a treadmill located in the living room/sun room area. When I left I was definitely kicking myself for not realizing how amazing of a place I had booked and I immediately told Holly that I wanted to return someday so that I could take better advantage of her amazing place and everything it has to offer. The only change I would have made was on my own part - after only staying at AirBNB's that were hosted by college kids, it didn't occur to me that some places could be potentially be TOO nice for 20-somethings to go after a night of drinking. Holly didn't complain but I hope my friend who wanted to stay up to all hours of the night watching TV and being loud in general wasn't too much of a nuisance for anyone else in the house, because I know I had to get up and tell her to be quiet a few times, whoops! Thanks again Holly for such an amazing place to stay! I would recommend your place to anyone and with the highest of reviews. I would love to come back sometime for a more relaxing...

Holly was incredibly sweet and welcoming. I had so much space and use of the entire basement. She supplied snacks and beverages and most importantly a welcoming environment. Lovely place and neighborhood.

Holly was a generous hostess, who provided a mini-fridge stocked with beverages and snacks, and who provided an early evening snack in her kitchen as well. The house room is spacious, as is the private bathroom. I particularly enjoyed having breakfast on the deck, looking out on the lake and listening to the wind in the trees behind me. It was so nice that I stayed an extra couple of hours and worked on my laptop. Holly and Andrew were kind and accommodating hosts!

Holly and Andrew were fabulous. The Breakfast every morning was delicious. Holly was very accommodating with our late rising due to our time change. The room was comfortable and clean and quiet. We were surprised by the stocked mini fridge with snacks and drinks. The view of the lake was beautiful.

Our stay at Canadian Lakes was fantastic! Pictures don't do the actual space justice. Holly was an amazing host! She is very friendly and made us feel right at home and then gave us our space after we settled in while also being available if we needed anything... and made the best French Toast and sausage for us for breakfast, she had an array of snacks laid out for us when we arrived, and there were more snacks and drinks provided for us in our room. It was really nice to have a family room type area in addition to the bedroom since it was me and my 16 year old son. He enjoyed the television and workout equipment while I enjoyed the peace and quiet by the fire pit right there on the lake. I highly recommend that you stay with them if you're in the area. If my son ends up going to Ferris State, I have a feeling this may become my home away from home.

We really enjoyed our stay with Holly and wish we could have stayed longer. She was super nice and incredibly accommodating. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Great location and tons of amenities!

We only stayed one night because my husband & I were running a marathon in a nearby town. Our accommodations were nothing but spectacular! Holly was such a gracious & kind host. She let me check in a few hours early so we could relax before the race. In the evening she made us an unexpected snack plate

Good value, great location

The Lake Cottage was perfect! Terra was extremely helpful in getting us all the information we needed. The house is in a beautiful location on a wonderful All Sports lake. The greatest part, besides the wonderful view, was all the "extras" that Terra supplies. We had kayak's, fishing gear, paddle boat, etc., so it was like being in a resort. Great accommodations. We also went on a 3 hour canoe trip one of our days and had a great time. Terra was helpful in letting us know what is available in the area. We would love to stay there again.

We loved everything about our stay! We appreciated Terra's quick response to our request to rent her cottage. The cottage was clean and just as described. Having 3 bedrooms, a nice living room & kitchen area, with a large deck overlooking the lake was great! We also had fun on the paddle boat and kayaks! Ending the day with a campfire down by the lake was very relaxing. The lake and surrounding area is so quiet! We could hear the loons out on the lake in the evening from the bedroom window. We would love to come back and stay hear again!

The lake cottage was an awesome place to visit. Terra called right after we got in to make sure everything was ok and to offer her assistance with anything we might need. The house has everything you need to enjoy a great week/weekend on the water. The paddle boat and canoe came in handy when we wanted to go over to an island on the lake to do some swimming. Also, there were some good places to dine within a 20 minute drive of the cottage. I will definitely be staying here again!

We had a wonderful retreat! Loved the quiet lake and the warm hosts.

We had a great vacation. The cottage is very convenient for a family of 3 or 4 people. It is clean and has all essentials. Large deck overlooks the lake. A couple of boats to use was a great bonus. Host family is nice and welcomed. We will sure want to repeat our stay next year.

We loved to sitt outside the cottage and eat, look at the still water and listen to the silence!

This charming cottage has some great views but is private because of the mature trees. The breezes off the lake provide wonderful, open window, natural air conditioning! Terra and Matt are right next door and welcomed us as we came down to the lake. We took full advantage of the paddle boat, kayaks and fishing. We didn't make it over to the island, which is where we heard the best swimming is...it was weedy right off the docks. We also brought flotation devices and enjoyed a ton of lake time just floating around! Thanks, Terra and Matt for sharing this sweet, family space!

The cottage is cute, and a very good value for the price per night. The host was responsive and answered all of our questions right away. The cottage comes well-equipped with a paddle boat, kayaks, fishing poles, life jackets, and a grill. You will need to stock up on paper products and groceries before you head up there though, as the closest store is quite a drive. Overall, we are really happy with our stay and had a very relaxing break there.

Perfect getaway, relaxing and peaceful. We went swimming, kayaking, played badminton, made smores, did a puzzle, stargazed, hung out by the fire...

I highly recommend staying at this cottage for some great R & R. It has all of the conveniences of home, including a fully stocked kitchen, a comfortable bed, flat screen TV, and a large comfortable “L” shaped couch. Plus it is less than 50 feet from the water front with a beautiful view of the lake including gorgeous sunsets, weather permitting. Even though it is a small cottage, it feels spacious on the inside due to the way the owners have arranged the furnishings. The lake is wonderful for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and other water sports. It is also a great area for taking long walks, as the roads have very little traffic. I will definitely be making a return trip to this place.

The cottage is in a beautiful location- with bigger cities nearby, but plenty to do right where you are. Matt and Katelynn were very accommodating, and have truly thought of everything you would need to get away, but still feel at home.

Very cute, this is a perfect place for couples. We had a great time!

We had a very nice time and it was well equipped with everything we needed. Made it very easy to travel and enjoy our time not having to worrie about what we needed to bring.

The cottage was great! It is right on the water, quaint but clean and has everything you need. We loved using the paddle boat, kayaks and grille! Very relaxing! We would visit again. :-)

Great place to relax and unwind. Feels like you are in the middle of nowhere but you are close to Canadian Lakes for activities and Big Rapids for some shopping and eats/drinks. Also close to a major north/south highway for more adventures.

I would like to thank Matt for hosting a beautiful home. The cottage was more than we expected and had everything we needed plus more.My family and i had a fun relaxing and peaceful time . The cottage was very clean and the bed and air mattress were very comfortable and there was more then enough bedding and towels, outside activities were also available and appreciated. The area was so peaceful and had beautiful views. I'm so glad I found and choose Matt's place and I will definitely go back and recommend this place, once again thanks for hosting which a beautiful place!
