Great Cabin
Fantastic host who was very responsive and accommodating. Plenty of room for all our family and the optional bunkhouse was a great addition to the property for our large group. The enclosed porch was the perfect place to relax or eat a meal with the beautiful lake view. We had everything we needed including plenty of towels. Memorable trip for my family. Thanks!

Perfect Up north Get Away
This cottage is the perfect place for an upper Michigan vacation. The cottage is large with a spacious kitchen for preparing meals. It was clean and very comforting. Has a nice deck and fire pit to enjoy the lake view sunset. We enjoyed using the kayaks and the Blackstone griddle that were provided. The Host’s Nick & Berta were very accommodating and responded to messages quickly. I highly recommend this property and plan on staying here again.

Great family vacation place
We really enjoyed our stay and it was a wonderful way to kick off the summer. The cabin and grounds are beautiful and relaxing. Great views from all three home windows. Very private, but inviting. The cabin has so many amenities and supplies, the hosts seemed to anticipate our needs before we did!

Beautiful cabin on the lake
We had an amazing weekend at Grand Lake! The property was clean, comfortable, and equipped with all the essentials. True “Up North” feel with tasteful decor and stunning views of the lake. Excellent location the tranquility, but close to restaurants and attractions. Easy check-in/out and host was very responsive. We hope to be back soon!
