Great place for anglers

Really great place for anglers. Super close to the Linwood Marina and Saginaw Bay. Our hosts were kind and allowed us to check in a few hours early. If you need a fridge and washer/dryer, stay in cottage L. But cottage A was perfect for me and my wife. Super comfortable and clean.

This is our second time staying here. We love the location. It has everything we need for a quick trip to fish for a few days. Spacious parking for our boat and truck. The fish cleaning station out back is perfectly set up to clean fish easily and efficiently. We were lucky to meet Derrick. He was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely book another stay and recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay that is fishing friendly!

Cozy felt like home

This cottage reminded us of our own personal home. We loved the horseshoes in the backyard and the peaceful nature in the backyard. It was next to a busy road but once you get it the cottage you couldn’t hear it or notice it. We didn’t have any neighbors in the cottage next to us so it was quiet and felt secluded. We would definitely stay again. The host was very nice and responsive. We had a great time.
