Just as pictured!
The cottage and lake were just as it was pictured! It was beautiful. The only downside was that the weather was not very cooperative. We had two beautiful days and then 3 days of rain. But even with the rain the stay was delightful. The cottage was so cozy and it was so relaxing sitting on the sofa with the fire going. The views from the kitchen and family room are lovely and the beds were comfortable. Our dogs loved swimming in the lake. We couldn't figure out how to work the outdoor shower but there was a hose that was available. Luckily we were able to use the outdoor fire pit two nights in a row. We definitely would book again and are seriously considering it.

We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. Well stocked kitchen, toys for the kids, canoe and boat for the lake. We caught over 20 pan fish from dock. Grandchildren really enjoyed it. Lots of beds for everyone. Great location to take day trips from. Highly recommended!!

Love having a place to relax with space to move about. Beautiful views of the quite beautiful lake and just a quick drive to Marquette. The girls had a blast in the lake.

2nd time staying here
This was our second time staying here and once again this location was perfect for us. Fished the lake and caught some nice fish, and had a blast doing it. Well mannered Pets are allowed for an additional fee. Large kitchen was a ton of fun as we prepared our meals, and also used the outside grill. As we learned last year “Do bring additional TP & paper towels” as there isn’t much, and we also brought our own towels. Right by the lake there is a full screened in cabana that has a propane fire table to warm up a cool summer evening. We are planning on returning next year.

The Little Lake Stay
The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils; just needs another big frying pan. Liked the extra spices and oils for cooking. Thanks…. Didn’t try the grill. Wished the paddle boat was there to use. We had a great time…. Quiet, just what was needed. Plus, I love the water to play in…. We came from California

Relaxing family getaway
Our family group of 5 adults and 3 children had a wonderful relaxing week at Little Lake (actually Farmers Lake, I believe!). Bridget was very responsive to questions we had before the stay and also to some minor issues we had when we arrived. Excellent communication and responsiveness! The property is not high end luxury which fits our family style well but provided all we needed--including spotty internet which meant more time with the grandchildren who struggled with their devices!! We loved that! Kitchen is spacious and has almost all the things needed for meal preparation! Kitchen also has windows facing the lake for gorgeous views as one is preparing dinner, etc.. We definitely recommend Little Lake as a comfortable family retreat. Sandy beach is also a bonus!!
