The Woods Edge cottage is simply magical. The home itself is beautiful, clean and has everything you could need for a short or long stay. It was just my son and I staying to celebrate his birthday but the home would be comfortable for a larger family as well. The real treat are the grounds. There are so many paths through meadows and woods with little spots to sit. My favorite was having morning coffee in the middle of the meadow and listening to the birds. My Merlin bird app even identified some rare birds that aren't seen as much due to disappearing wetlands. Once you see how much effort Lincoln's family has put into rewilding their property you will understand why it is such a wildlife sanctuary and I feel lucky to have experienced myself. This is my dream to live somewhere like this and I hope more people can enjoy it as well. Also the owners were super responsive although I honestly didn't need anything except to check out their sweet farmstand!

Wood Crest Cottage was an excellent choice for my first visit to Michigan. Morning coffee experiencing nature in the beautiful setting and evening soaks in the hot tub were perfect bookends to days of exploring beaches and the wine trail. The carefully curated grounds, interior and amenities insured a peaceful and relaxing stay. Anyone considering booking this property should not hesitate to choose it.

Peaceful and private with great amenities

The cottage is adorable and the property is awesome. My teenage boys spend hours each day fishing at the pond. We loved using the fire pit at the pond and spending time on The kayaks. The trails were great. The setting is peaceful and private. The hosts were kind, very communicative and accommodating. Everything was clean and well taken care of, except the outdoor furniture could use some refreshing.

Great Mini Spring Location!

I took my son and his friend to meet my family from Wisconsin as this house was about half way for both of us. The pictures and listing don't do the house justice! We absolutely loved our time, we just wished it was warmer to enjoy hiking the property more, hopefully we can meet there again! Thank you to the wonderful hosts! Ten out of ten!

Get-away Bliss

We loved our stay. We wanted to get away from everything and this place absolutely did that. Loved relaxing in the hot tub each night. It was cute and the paths were great. We also enjoyed meeting the friendly dogs at the farm. Would definitely go back!

Fully Appointed Peaceful Haven

The house itself is wonderfully equipped with anything you would ever need! A delightfully private, peaceful, beautiful property - just a few minutes away from available restaurants and activities (we rented a pontoon at Diamond Lake ten minutes away). Clean as a whistle, which is my #1 requirement at a rental. If you want modern, this may not be for you - it's updated in all the important ways (kitchen/bath) but maintains cottage charm. <3

Hidden Gem

The property was absolutely stunning with plenty of trails to walk, a pond to take the kids out on, and the perfect setup to relax any where. Our hosts were great and clear with communication. They left a few thoughtful goodies and thought of everything including outdoor games. The cottage was clean and even bigger then we expected- it was perfect for our family getaway and I will be reccomending this stay to friends and family.

Quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. It was like staying in a sanctuary. There were places to sit and paths to walk. There were games to play outdoors, every amenity one could imagine and the softest bath towels we've ever used. There were homemade chocolate chip cookies on the counter--I would love to have the recipe....I wish we could have enjoyed more time exploring. I needed a place to stay to attend a funeral, but this place was a gift during an extremely difficult time and I will treasure our stay for the beauty and comfort we found here.
