This property was perfect for our family weekend to celebrate an out of town wedding. Us and our 4 adult children enjoyed the updated clean house, swam and floated on the dock, played cornhole, grilled and enjoyed a bonfire. The commutation was great with the host and the neighborhood was quiet and friendly when we did see passerbys. Highly recommend and would love to go stay again.

Great holiday retreat

We had a great time with our teens and family at the cottage. Clean property that was well socked (even had coffee filters, TP, paper towel). Just be aware that there is no microwaves—we had to adjust some meals accordingly once we realized this so want others to know.

Amazing Lake house!

We loved this place - so quiet mid week. Weekends on the lake were busy and fun. Our daughter was with us for one night and she loved swimming in the lake, paddleboarding and the chair hammock. One of us worked remotely and the accommodations were nice. Beds were nice, neighbors friendly, internet fine. No TV but we were fine with that. The Allegan community was super friendly and welcoming. We LOVE the smaller side of the lake and peaceful mornings with lake swans.
