Wonderful Lake

My wife and I spent a long weekend at this lovely cottage on Starvation Lake. The cottage was very private, comfortable and was in a wonderful location. We would stay here again. Don't forget to go to the Hide-a-way which is three doors down for some great pizza.

Great place to relax

5 of 5
Submitted: July 17, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
What a great, relaxing vacation for my wife, 3 children, our family dog, and myself. The beach was excellent, the water is warm, and shallow for a long ways which was great for the kids. The entire week of our stay, the lake was very quiet, and everyone we encountered was very friendly. The cabin was clean and the kids each had their own bedroom. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone as a great family getaway. We spent the vast majority of time at the beach, but did go to Sleeping Bear Dunes one day (about an hour and 15 min drive) and one other afternoon we went tubing down the Jordan river (about 25 min drive). We hated to leave!
Owner's Response: My wife and i are so happy that you enjoyed yourselves and hope you can come back and stay with us again!

Perfect Place To Relax!!

Fantastic stay, as always... we enjoyed great weather over the holiday week again & the lake is the cleanest we have seen anywhere! Nice large beach with fire pit for after dark... great large-mouth & small-mouth bass fishing too. Just bring your clothes, because this place literally has everything you need!! If you happen venture down the road 100-yards to the Hideaway Bar, try their pizza, it's fantastic!!!

Amazing!

5 of 5
Submitted: June 26, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
I just want to say that this was the best vacation that my family could have asked for! It was an amazing place. Everything that we could have needed was there. I dont think that I could have fit everything for a family of five for a week into one car, so having everything at the house made it possible for us to go somewhere. I cant even express how amazing the whole experience was for us! It was so quiet and the people were fantastic. There are so many amazing things to go see and do in the area. I hope that this will be something that we can do very year together. The memories we have will last a life time. Thank you two so much!
Owner's Response: Kim & I are so happy to share this place with other people. Thanks so much for letting us know how much you liked it.

A very nice cabin - an awesome lake

5 of 5
Submitted: September 26, 2011 Stayed: September 2011
The cabin had everything we needed for our long weekend stay. Games, towels, coffee filters, shampoo...I don't think there is anything they didn't have that we would've wanted or needed. All the beds were made and ready for us. The cabin was very clean.
I enjoyed the walk around the lake. It was so peaceful. The lake is so clear, you can see thru to the bottom. It's shallow too which was great for the dog to wade in and "fish".
One night, we had burgers and beer at the Hideaway Bar, literally 2 houses down the road -perfect. The sandy beach is large, but if you want shade, there are lots of trees. I would recommend this cottage. Thank you.
