Cozy studio apartment, fully equipped with just about everything you need. Private entrance with an electronic lock. A well-equipped kitchen includes all new appliances, cookware, and essentials. Sleeps up to 3 with 1 queen bed, and 1 couch (not a pullout). Free on-site parking for 1 vehicle. Pets are welcome. Please review household rules. Outdoor Fun: Experience the beauty of all four seasons! From summer lake fun and fall foliage to spring kayaking and winter wonderlands, there’s always something to enjoy. We have a year-round fire pit—perfect for roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the stars. Our natural shoreline on the living lake features a dock with a kayak launch, and we have 3 kayaks, and inflatable tube rentals available. Relax on the dock, watching stunning sunsets and listening to the sounds of nature, while the gentle lake breeze soothes your spirit. In this quiet, private lake community, you’ll find peace and tranquility, perfect for leisurely walks and stunning sunset views. Convenient Location: We’re ideally located with shopping, parks, and eateries nearby, and just 10-30 minutes from Frankenmuth, Birch Run, and Flint. Perfect for both short stays and longer monthly rentals. Friendly Hosts: We’re a welcoming family of three and respect your privacy while being available for any assistance you may need. Check out our outstanding reviews across our other locations! We can’t wait to welcome you to our beautiful lakeside retreat at Hidden Charm Suites! House Rules & Important Info (With a Dash of Sass) 📌 \*\*\*\* Let’s start with a short list of rules: \*\*\*\*📌 🚭 Smoke-Free = Fresh Air Vibes We love our house smelling like fresh air. No smoking, no vaping, no exceptions—in or near the house. If you\`re craving a puff, head to the cute little smoker’s corner near the parking spots. Use the butt bucket for your butts and the trash cans for, well… trash. Pro tip: Give yourself a minute or two to air out before coming back inside—the smell clings like glitter at a craft fair. No incense, no overpowering scents, and absolutely no cooking seafood inside. (Grill it outside like a pro.) $250 cleaning fee for violations. 🤫 Quiet Time = Happy Neighbors Others live here as well, so please keep things respectful. Quiet hours are from 10 PM to 8 AM. We\`re not asking for complete silence—just don’t be that guest. 😄 🚽 Toilet Talk (Yeah, We Went There) This one\`s not glamorous, but it’s super important: ONLY flush toilet paper and tissue. That’s it. No wipes, no feminine products, no cotton swabs, no mystery items, even if it says flushable. If it’s not pee, poo, or tissue —trash it. Backed-up sewer = plumber call = extra charge = total buzzkill. 💩 🧼 Long-Stay = Deep Clean Here for 28+ days? Love that for you! We’ll need to give the place a deeper scrub post-checkout. An additional cleaning fee will be added, payable through your guest portal. 🔐 Owner-Only Items If it\`s labeled “Owner Use Only,” please admire it from a distance. Using these items may result in extra charges. Thanks for respecting our space! ❌ Cancellations & Refunds Life happens—travel insurance is your best friend. Our cancellation policies are firm and enforced. A 10% processing fee applies to all cancellations/refunds (unless Airbnb rules apply). 🔑 Your Very Own Guest Portal For each reservation, we’ll set up a personalized Guest Portal with everything you need for a smooth stay. Inside, you’ll find a check-in form and rental agreement—these must be completed before we can send over your check-in instructions. You’ll also get all the key details about your stay, along with some fun add-ons you can purchase to make your visit even more fabulous. 💧 Dehumidifier It’s the quiet hero of humidity control. Leave it running, let the little tube drain into the sink, and everyone stays comfy. 🐶 Pet Rules Yes, we’re pet-friendly—with a few rules: • $75 fee for up to 2 pets. Extra pets need approval (+$25 each). • No leaving pets alone unless you’ve gotten a pre-approved hall pass. • Use provided covers if pets are on furniture. • Leashes are strongly recommended—other dogs may be around and may not interact well. • Wet dogs = bathe + dry WELL before coming inside. • Clean up ALL pet messes (inside & out). No poo left behind! • Seriously, scoop that poop. Nobody likes a landmine. 🔥 Grill & Chill Our firepit grill is ready for your s’mores and smoky flavors. Line with foil or go full rustic. Firewood available for sale—ask Lisa! 🚗 Parking Details Free on-site parking in spot #4\. Easy-peasy. 📌 \*\*\*\*And now some details to make your stay even better \*\*\*\* 😉: 🌊 Lake Life & Fire Pit Fun Our lake is a living lake with a natural shoreline. This means is that there are plants and animals in the water, and there is no beach. You are welcome to swim. I prefer to paddle around the lake. 😊 • All lake fun is at your own risk, there is no lifeguard on duty. We are not responsible for injury or lost/damaged property. • I never thought I would need to say this, but Watch Your Kids! We want everyone safe and happy. • Dock: Guests are welcome to use the dock. The water is about 5 feet deep off the far edge of the dock, and it gets deeper from there. • Fishing: You are technically required to have a fishing license. We haven’t had a problem so far, but I’m just letting you know that DNR does come out on the lake sometimes, and could request to see your license. • Want extras? We got ‘em: 🛶 Kayaks – $25/day Tubes – $10/day 🦺 Life Vests – Included 🔥 Firewood – Also available Contact Lisa or book via your guest portal. First come, first served! 🎥 Security Cameras We’ve got exterior cameras keeping an eye on the parking and entry areas. They’re not spying, they’re just keeping things safe. Smile and wave! 🧹 Room Cleaning Basics We clean after each stay. During your time here, feel free to freshen up using the vacuum, broom, mop, and cleaners located throughout the house. Tidy guests are our favorites. 😉 🧻 Paper Products We provide a starter supply of paper products. If you run out, a quick store run will be your best bet. ⏰ Early Check-In / Late Check-Out We get it—you’re excited to arrive or not ready to leave. If we can swing it, we will—for a fee and with prior approval. Let us know in advance! Cleaning magic needs time, after all. 🧳 Lost & Left Behind Forgot something? Happens to the best of us. We’ll do our best to find it and send it your way—on your dime. 🛠️❄️ A/C Secrets We’ve got central A/C (one setting rules all), and it’s owner-controlled. Set to a cozy 75°F upstairs = cooler downstairs. We only run it when it\`s truly muggy. Want to beat the heat? Close the windows & curtains before it gets hot and open them when it cools. Fans are also your besties. 🔥 Heat The fireplace is controlled via the wall thermostat—please don’t mess with the fireplace itself. Let it do its thing. 📺 Smart TV No cable necessary - You’ve got streaming power! Just log into your fave apps (and don’t forget to log out). Remote lives in front of the TV. ✅ Check Out Like A Pro • Out by 11 AM sharp (unless we agreed otherwise). Late = extra day charge. • Toss used towels/washcloths in the laundry basket. • Rinse dishes, load & run the dishwasher. • Remote goes back in front of the TV. • Trash = out to bins by the garage. • Drop me a message when you head out so we know it’s go-time for cleaning. 😊 Thanks a ton—you’re the best! 💛 Welcome to the Grateful Suite by Hidden Charm Suites. We are happy to have you here and hope you enjoy your stay. If you notice anything that needs improvement, please let us know. Our goal is for you to feel welcome, relaxed, comfortable, and glad you stayed with us.

The host is a great person, very “hands off” but always there when you need her! 10/10 will definitely stay again when the opportunity arises ! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/501891c9-ba5c-4fed-b2e1-4946775f55c6-1760546411651.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ee89d7d4-5af8-4ad3-826b-abcd6e262263-1760546413749.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8a20562f-b61c-467b-afd3-1ae1f04772ea-1760546413799.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d6ff277c-f68e-4f9a-a703-6b828d640802-1760546414265.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Wattana A.

It is beautiful looking out on the lake and there was a full moon at night. The host greeted me when I arrived. I loved that everything was labeled for easy access. Thank you so much. ##### Pamela H.

We booked our stay because of some work we were having done on our house. The fumes made it necessary for us to stay away from home while the varnish smell dissipated. This was a great find! Quiet, cozy, well equipped, clean, check in was a breeze as was checkout. You look out the Windows of the unit to the lake, wildlife and beautiful sunsets. I would recommend a visit here to just relax and get away from your everyday stress. (Many restaurants nearby). Kayaks available to rent with a easy in and out kayak launch for a nice tour around the lake. Fire pit and wood available for you to enjoy! Thank you Lisa for your hospitality! ##### Amanda C.

It's well-maintained and nicely decorated for a quiet stay, away from the world. We enjoyed our time. ##### Ron H. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary J.

The room was just as the pictures showed. It was clean and comfortable. Lisa the property manager was attentive and responded to messages almost immediately! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a place to stay. If I’m back in this area I will definitely stay here again. Absolutely awesome! ##### Gary J.

We were in the Flint area for a Geocaching Event. We have stayed in VRBO properties before and have been pleased. This stay was more wonderful than we could ever imagined. The space was so nice, well-maintained, clean, and easily accessible. The host was friendly, gracious, and so eager to give the best recommendations for where to get things and whete to find the best eateries. AND, THE VIEW! If you are ever in in the Flint area and need of a small space, perfect for two. THIS IS YOUR BEST CHIICE. ##### Mark D. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Estelle A. Aug 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Grateful Suite Lake Front Retreat at Potter Lake in Davison, MI was a perfect choice for our stay to get far away from the torrid, miserable heat in Florida. The peaceful surroundings with the lake front just steps away makes this location calm and restful. The Grateful Suite was comfortable and decorated with taste. All necessary items to locate were already identified by (leaf) notes for our convenience. We were there for 26 evenings and totally satisfied with our unit. Three windows opens up the view of the lake and outstanding sunsets. What a BONUS! Our host, Lisa, is remarkable. She was there to greet us at our arrival and just before we left her hospitable nature just shined. We definitely will be checking into this retreat site for our next visit to MI.
