What isn't the best

-While the lake and the home are in great areas, the local area is lacking large supermarkets. We suggest that you stop in Coldwater or Sturgis, depending on which direction you are traveling in from.

-Michigan cottages come with nature included. You will likely see Woodpeckers, Hawks, Bunnies, and we've even seen an Eagle in the past. Historically the mosquitos and black flies are not bad, but may be present, especially in the warm months. You will also see spider webs present. We thoroughly clean in between visits.
