WHAT GUESTS ARE SAYING "Our stay at this cottage was 10/10. My husband and I are from Ohio. We came here to get away for a long weekend in December, and fell in love with the area. The walks through the woods and on the boardwalk were our favorite. We will definitely be back this summer to stay at this same cottage. Stunning location!" Kelsey B.

REVIEWS "We loved staying at this cottage off of Lake Michigan nestled high in the woods. It was so cozy, clean, and quaint. My family loved to do morning and night walks on the beach, pier and through the woods. The hosts are super responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be back!" Morgan F.
"This was such a cozy and comfortable stay this past fall. We have four kids who happily slumbered in the bunk room while my husband and I had the other room. It was so fun to leave the cottage on foot to either the beach, woods or playground at Mulligans Hollow. We would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway." Lauren G.

They place was as advertised. The parking situation is awful but we did know that ahead of time. No air is brutal but also we did know this so can’t really complain. Not safe for young kids with very steep stairs. It was a great location for us and we had a lovely trip.

They said nothing about the 40+ stairs to get up to the house in the listing and there was also no pictures of them. The house smelt musky and was absolutely not a house meant for any children under the age of 10 to stay there. We ended up leaving a night early because it was too stressful to even stay there with our family.

What a gem - location location and everything we needed.
This was a rather last minute booking, so to find something this perfect to be available was a real surprise.
The property had everything we needed, could use some upgrades to the patio furniture ..of the two chairs provided, when we moved the back cushion of one we noticed the entire backing was blown out, and the second one began to crack during our stay, so we had to get creative with borrowing chairs from my brother who fortunately lives in town. No real complaints though! Neighbors were a little rude when we arrived, but they thought we were taking their parking space which we weren’t. Would stay here again! It was cozy, yes, but plenty enough space for our young kids and could have even slept another 1, or 2:)
