Great location on Round Lake. Blinds a bit open so bit compromised for privacy but clean. Owner very friendly and accommodating. ##### David S.

Aug 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic family vacation The pictures don't do this place justice. Beautiful place and on the lake a short walk around a house between us and the lake. Round Lake is beautiful and clear and fun. Rented a pontoon boat and a tube from Slates Boat Rentals (on FB) and it was lots of fun for my family (20, 18, and 12 yr old boys). Walking distance from ice cream, two breweries, grocery store, etc. Short drive to Lake Michigan beaches and sand dunes. We'll be back for sure. Great communication with the owner, too. ##### John B.

Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy & clean Cozy, clean cottage in a great location near Round Lake. Walking distance to restaurants. Had great food and service at The Strand. Unfortunately we didn’t get to use the kayaks as we didn’t know we had to bring our own life jackets (which we don’t have). Cute mini golf/ice cream place right across the street. Owner was great with communication. Saw a deer out the window the morning we left! Some small things we would change but overall it suited our needs while visiting friends in the area. ##### Christine A. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah M.

Since they do a bit of a work on big covered with old trees pario the owner was shy to put pictures of it . They got a new big gas grill, kayaks and the house has everything you need . The Dollar General and grocery store 5 minutes walk . Ice cream /coffee shop different direction 5 minutes walk. And the good restaurants are around as well.Its a beautiful area around those lakes. Its a gem location and the house ##### Yelena Z. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie R.
