Cottage is on Lake Superior but a very small access to the lake. There is a fire pit which we ended up not using. The pictures when i booked the cottage showed a beautiful view of the lake but when it came time to check in this was not the case. There were 4 to 5 boats and other vehicles parked in front blocking the view. We also had to make sure not to park on a or over a yellow line or the neighbor will have you towed. There was plenty of room to park out truck and bass boat. Location was very noisy horns going off from people parking next door and vehicles going by constantly. Trucks drove by all hours of the night making it difficult to sleep at times. There were spiders and webs everywhere outside on the deck and even on the entrance door to get in and it was disturbing to walk through them. The cottage inside was clean but definitely a handymans special. There was enough room for all 5 of us to sleep inside so we didn't pay extra for the bunk house. The kitchen is way too small if you have more than a couple people. We felt jammed in the space and only 4 could sit at the table. Beds were comfortable and clean. It was nice to do laundry there on site and they supplied soap/dryer sheets. There were plenty of towels and wash cloths. Would recommend some shampoo and conditioner for guests. Overall the stay as mediocre. It served its purpose but I would not stay at this cottage again wasn't worth the cost.

Great getaway!

We had a wonderful family vacation here! Its location is a little private than the pictures implied, but in the heart of Munising and right on the water. It’s a gorgeous area. Property managers were very responsive to whatever we needed.

Great time in Munising

Our family of 5 had a great visit to Munising. Everything in the property listing was exactly as promised with the exception that the second room with three twins had recently been converted to two. Kindly, the property manager gave our girls access to the bunk house which was greatly appreciated. My 11-year old could have stood at the little beach area for three days straight throwing rocks. Had a blast. As described well in other reviews, this is right off the highway and next to boats taking kayakers out. Therefore, it is pretty loud. Otherwise, well-appointed, and exactly what we needed.

Very nice spot .....but

In many ways this property deserves a better rating than I am giving to it. My main reasons for only giving it a "3" are as follows: 1) Primarily, a next to last minute (a day or two ahead of check-in from the property manager noting all the things they do NOT provide or the things they limit. Really? Bring your own tp if our two rolls aren't enough, no coffee filters unless other guests leave them, et al. No personal hygiene products like soap or shampoo? I can't remember the last time some token supplies of these were not provided. None of these are a particular hassle and none of them break the bank for guests OR the property owner to provide. However, it sets a bad tone - in my opinion. No one expects a fully stocked kitchen but, byo coffee filters - really? In a similar vein, the pots and pans are more than a bit tired, IMO. It would only cost a few dollars to update them and give your guests who want to use the kitchen a better, easier experience. By the way, , however, thanks for the warning re: well water. It was appreciated. Second, the front yard is a pie shape in which a big chunck of the view of the lake from the house is blocked by a large shed that the neighbors have. Also, be aware (although this is not the property owner's fault), the neighbors have a bunch of NO TRESPASSING signs up. Ok, we get it "STAY OFF MY LAWN!" However the foregoing force you to use only a tiny sliver/corner of the yard - a good bit away from the house - to sit and relax with a decent, unobstructed view of the lake. All this being said, it IS on the lake, more or less RIGHT in town and, while it's not likely we will be in that neck of the woods again anytime soon (too bad for us because it is an AWESOME area) and more than lived up to our expectations., we'd rent here again

Overall Wonderful!

Overall we really enjoyed our three days at the Superior Lake Cottage. The cottage was clean enough (better than most hotels). We loved being in town, however, that meant we had a loud/busy road right behind us. We beach was a pleasant surprise as no photos were shown online (keep in mind the water view you see out the kitchen window is private property). The cottage is right next to Pictured Rocks Kayaking which offered some entertainment watching people get on/off the boats and the boats coming and going. Unfortunately, the port-o-potties of Pictured Rocks Kayaking but up against the woods of the cottage property and when the wind blew from that direction, you could smell the port-o-potties. Overall - we enjoyed our time in Munising and would stay at the Superior Lake Cottage again!
