Great place, conveniently located

My family had a wonderful stay at this cottage. The big yard and lake access was a big hit with both kids and grown-ups. While the cottage itself was well-maintained, there are some quirks about the house that may or may not make a difference to you: There is only one shower and it is on the ground floor (the 2nd bath has a jetted tub and is connected to one of the upstairs bedrooms). The stairs are very narrow and may be difficult for older folks to navigate (they also lack railings on one side, so if you have climbing toddlers, they could fall off the stairs). Only 2 of the bedrooms have a ceiling fan (the 2nd queen bedroom does not), and it gets very uncomfortable without it. For some reason, the a/c doesn't quite get to the 2nd floor. All that said, the positives outweigh the negatives: The kitchen was well equipped and had cook's pots/pans and knives (the best I've come across in a rental kitchen). The views of the lake were gorgeous! The furniture was comfortable and decor was updated. The cottage was close to stores, but still felt secluded and quite (except for one night when the neighbors were a bit rowdy). It was also convenient to Ann Arbor and Detroit. It worked for us and I hope to stay there again.

Our second visit and it just gets better. Comfortable, roomy accomodations. Perfect place for family and friends to visit, and a great base to stay while seeing the sights. We're already looking forward to 2012!

Great for our six person family.

We came to Michigan the week of Thanksgiving to go to the Michigan football game and spend Thanksgiving with family. We stayed one week and Jeff/Diane were very accommodating about shifting our week to start on Friday and offered a fair price for if we wanted to stay a few days longer. The contract was clear about our responsibilities (trash day, dishes clean when we left, etc.) and our deposit was returned promptly. Great and prompt owner communication. Overall, a great experience from the business end of things.

We had six people staying at the cottage - myself, my husband, two young children (elem school age), and my in-laws. With three bedrooms, there was plenty of room for everyone. All three bedrooms are upstairs. The children used the front bedroom with a double and a twin which had a big closet, dresser and plenty of room. We stayed in the middle bedroom that has a queen bed. There was an armoire for hanging things and ample room in the dresser. It was probably the smallest bedroom. The back master bedroom has a beautiful view of the lake and is the biggest room. There is a big hall closet with everything you might need: sheets, blankets, pillows, towels. Upstairs there is one full bathroom, although it's a big jet-type tub without a shower. Downstairs is another full bathroom, tub with shower. Plenty of hot water, good water pressure.

The downstairs was great. Plenty of room for everyone to hang out. TV had cable, and we had no trouble using the Wi-Fi with our laptops. Lots of books to borrow and board games to play. The cottage is only about 10-15 minutes from all the shopping and restaurants in Brighton. Freeway is about 5-10 minutes down the road. The kitchen had plenty of room for preparing meals, and the dining table easily sat six. Plenty of dishes, cups, pans, etc. There isn't a dishwasher, but I'll take the laundry room over a dishwasher any day! We did laundry halfway through the week, and everything worked fine. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, even with all the close neighbors. It's too bad it was too cold to enjoy the lake! We did enjoy the gas fireplace though! My children liked seeing the bunnies hop through the yard. Overall an excellent experience and we hope to come back next year!

Perfect get-a-way

Just returned from 10 days at the Pathway house with my Mother and son. It was the perfect getaway place, especially from the hot days in Florida. Diana was wonderful and the house was a one-of-a-kind place to lay back and relax or to have family visit. The lakefront is beautiful. We definitely plan to return next year. There were a few glitches, but, they were "acts of God" and not the fault of the owner, and were taken care of immediately. This is the perfect place for couples or families who want a nice home to spend their vacation time. Thanks to Diana and Jeff. Lois

We love hanging out at Pathway! The fishing off the dock is great, our kids(6 and 3 years) always have a fun time and the sunset views are spectacular!
