Cute cottage with a view.

We enjoyed the larger kitchen since we had a graduation open house to cater to. Bedrooms are small with little luggage room, but tolerable. Only complaint would be the small bathroom and even smaller shower. A larger person would not be able to use the shower. No extra towels.

Relaxation at Silver Lake

Loved this cottage - is small but efficient and has an amazing sun room and great deck overlooking the lake. Katie was really communicative about property and rental and the check-in/out process was very smooth. The kitchen is lacking enough tools to really cook beyond the very basics, but there is a fantastic gas grill that was ready to go! The washer and dryer in the house were a real bonus - and came in really handy. We really enjoyed our stay - this property also benefits from great location - just outside of Traverse City, so it is relatively quiet, but very quick drive to be downtown for dining out and other entertainments! The only thing really lacking was a first aid kit - many properties have one and we realized too late that there wasn't one here (finger cut while cleaning fish). Fantastic place though!

Quiet Lake Retreat

Loved our stay here! Katie was very accommodating and replied to our messages in a timely manner. The property was beautiful being situated right on the water. The back had large windows allowing us to catch beautiful views of the lake and sunrise over it! Though we didn’t use the lake (too cold), the fall colors were amazing up here and everything was within a short drive from the cottage, including some nice hiking/walking trails. The cottage was very clean, updated, and made for an easy stay! We would definitely come back here again!

Silver Lake Cottage

It is an adorable, modern cottage, right on the lake. Large windows with amazing views. Very clean. Unsure how to turn on heat-owner replied within 10 minutes and problem solved. Cold, rainy day, perfectly comfortable reading and spending day inside (can’t say that about a hotel). Looking forward to returning next year.

Fabulous Location and Lake Views!

I have stayed here twice and it's a delightful little cottage on the water with amazing sunrises and beauty. The beds are very comfortable, nice larger kitchen, with washer and dryer (need to bring your own laundry detergent). The only improvement I would suggest in a stand up cabinet or small table in the bathroom -- there is nowhere to put toiletries, hair dryer, etc. Otherwise, a perfect location and a kind and responsive host.

Perfect in every way!

We loved this property! Close to everything, yet private and so relaxing to be on the lake. The kitchen had everything we needed, as we cooked most of our meals at the cottage. We brought our small fishing boat, and it was so convenient to be able to leave it in the water and use the pier. The public boat launch is quiet and easy to access. Katie answered any questions we had quickly, and was a true pleasure! We definitely hope to stay here again!!!

Beautiful view

The view of Silver Lake each morning was fabulous. The kitchen was great, good laundry appliances. Dishwasher had an odor so probably needs to be cleaned. Was disappointed that the slider did not have a screen, nor did one of the windows in the main living area. The mechanism on one of the casement windows in the sun room was broken and thus inoperable. The dock was great and loved the sandy bottom of the lake. Overall a nice place to stay and the owner was good at communication.

Awesome view

Loved the property. We were 2 couples and it was enough space for all of us. Even only having one bathroom to share wasn't bad. Would have liked an extra mirror in the bedrooms since there was only the one bathroom but we enjoyed the place..close to everything ..great view and the deck and the dock were great for hanging out!!

Amazing Cottage, Perfect Silver Lake View! This cottage was the perfect size for our family of 4, plus my parents! The property manager Katie Kinney is outstanding with communicating. The cottage was clean and provided all the comforts of home. We took our pontoon and the dock was excellent, and the lake was spectacular. There was enough parking for our boat trailer and 2 full size trucks. The location is unbeatable, we were close enough to Travere City to enjoy the town and come back to privacy on the water. We will be back for sure!!
