The cottage was very nice and clean. It looked like it had been totally remodeled. The windows, walls, floor, doors, furniture, appliances, furnishings, towels, linens and appliances all looked brand new. The property was on the lake and included row boats and kayaks for use of the renters. There were nice picnic tables and firepits. We had a great time.

Family Reunion 2025
We were up for my husbands family reunion, at his aunt and uncles cottage in Elk Rapids. We decided to get our own place because the family is getting so big. The Pine Cottage was perfect for my husband, son and myself.

Peaceful week
All the renovations made this cabin so much better to stay in. We had stayed 3 times previous, snd it was more of a rustic fishing cabin. Now it is a perfect cabin for anyone. We had great neighbors in the cabin next door too. Only bad thing about our stay was the fishing has really slacked off in the last 5 years. We didn't catch half as many as we have in past years. Overall, i would highly recommend thus cabin to anyone looking for peace and quiet in a beautiful setting.

Super accommodations and incredible views and location. Close to all the attractions but also somewhat secluded. Cabin was recently remolded and was perfect for my grandson and I. Would book again!

Great location!
The location was wonderful! We enjoyed the lake and all its natural beauty and wildlife. The cabin was a little rough as far as needing updates, especially the plumbing fixtures. The bed and bedding were great! Very nice and private for us and the dogs.
