Quaint and quiet

My family spent a week in the house for vacation. It was clean and well maintained. Even though the house is on a busy road, it sits a bit off the road. The traffic did not disturb my sleep. We enjoyed spending time there.

The property was clean and close to the college to visit our daughter. The host was very generous with ice cubes ready, fruit and flavored water. I would highly recommend this property and stay there again.

Annoying Rooster at 6am

We stayed at this property in 2023 without issue. This year, there was a rooster who crowed every morning at 6 AM. It was annoying, and did not make the stay fun at all. People couldn’t sleep. Not only that, but there were other issues that have made this an unpleasant experience. We will not rent this property again!

Perfect for family visit

This property was perfect for visiting family in Van Buren Point for a 90th birthday celebration. The cottage was clean, kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and the host was very responsive and welcomed us upon arrival. We had four adults and a baby and could have fit a few more. Would definitely book again!

Enjoyed our stay very much. House was great. Host left us some welcoming things, loved them. The only problems were the host didn't get in touch with us about check in procedure until 4pm the night before, web site says 3 days before check in. Also host left paper work for registration saying they would come get it. Never came.

Close to the Lake

It was exactly what we were looking for. There is a covered porch on one side and an uncovered porch on the other. Which was a nice spot to have your coffee in the morning. Having two bathrooms was the selling point for us. The beds were very comfortable.

Family reunion

The cottage was nicely equipped, very clean, comfortable, and worked well for us. The owners live next door and so they were readily available if we had had any questions or problems, which we did not. They have marked the grassy right of way that leads to the lake access, about a five minute walk.

Kepple Family Vacation

What's not to love about this property?!?! It is located just outside of Van Buren Bay. Easy access to the beach. Gina was wonderful in communicating with me. We felt welcome from the moment we stepped inside, from the welcome note on the refrigerator, to the mints laid on our pillows. For us, the location was the big reason we selected this property, as we come here annually to meet up with family who own property in Van Buren Bay. We will definitely be back! We've already booked for next year!

Wonderful Cottage!

This is a pristine property! Gina and Dan are great hosts that make sure you have everything you need. The house is spacious and nicely appointed. The location is close to a main road but otherwise it is very near the lake. Highly recommend!
