This was our third visit to this lovely little cottage. Relaxing and close to Leland, Traverse City, and Sleeping Bear area. On a nice fishing lake and walkable to Lake Ann Town center. We enjoyed our stay very much and will likely be back next year.

Great location

This was our second time staying in this cottage and like the first time, everything was perfect. There are many good hikes within a short distance and just a short walk into town for great beer music and food. Many other options are just a short drive away.

Lake Ann 23

Overall, the property is great and as described. Two things I would suggest at this point with all the amenities you have- that would be to switch to cotton sheets and consider replacing the mattress.
Lillies in the morning and bass abound.

Sooooooo chill

For a man and his little daughter, that part of Lake Ann was phenomenal. Nature at the lake, comfortable inside, fire pit was an added benefit with tons of wood already cut for me. Kitchen, bedrooms, living room, and A/C unit was very efficient. The community with restaurants and brewery was very entertaining. Great spot!

Really a "find" for a Northern Michigan cottage by a stillwater private lake, with a nice layout, both indoors and out. The fire pit area is like a slice on sandy beach, but only 40 feet away from a nice deck with a grill and seating for five. Indoor spacing and sleep accomodations are limited to four, but the outdoor seating can accommodate 6-8 for a cookout bonfire (plenty of beach and deck chairs).Also, its just off the main street of the tiny town of Lake Ann, but nowhere near any traffic or noise. We were able to all to the tiny downtown (recommend the brewery/pizza restaurant with outdoor "beer garden" seating and live music).And our hosts went to the max, fetching a new electric tea pot to accommodate my wife! We plan on coming back next year lor the year after.

Bryant lake cottage

Beautiful location. So much to do within 30 minutes… Convenient for Kayaking, hiking, shopping, breweries, wineries, restaurants and breathtaking scenery. Cottage was nice. We were out exploring most of the time but was perfect to come back after a days activity and have a comfortable place to get a nights rest.

Great getaway

My wife and I came up for our 31st anniversary. We usually stay right in or very near TC. We found this place online and it was amazing! Beautiful quiet lake, the house was very nice and we had everything we needed. The little town right around the block was amazing from the Lake Ann Grocery to the Lake Ann Brewery and the restaurant next door. Live music every night at the brewery and great food you can pick up and eat at the surprisingly large venue behind. We will definitely be back!

Relaxing

The owners greeted us as we arrived and showed us around....they were so nice, cottage is cute, comfortable, cozy, screened in porch was so nice, especially the day it rained, we used the paddle boat so relaxing there......and well stocked with paper products and cookware...7 days didn't seem long enough....would stay again. It was GREAT.....also very clean and wood for a campfire....town is walking distance with a little grocery store, bar, restaurant and post office...and wi-fi.....cable tv. what more could you want...and little private beach to walk to on Lake Ann....Owners should be proud to offer this cottage...they did a good job.

Loved this place!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location is wonderful with food, grocery, and a brewery just a ten minute walk away and the property itself was just wonderful. The enclosed porch and gorgeous lake views were my favorite and my husband had a blast fishing on the dock and with the row boat. We also enjoyed the quietness of the area, as well as the plentiful outdoor seating and made use of the gas grill twice! We drove to the Traverse City Cherry Festival twice and then also went to Sleeping Bear Dunes and both were just 20-30 min away. My son loved playing outside, sleeping in the porch, and really enjoyed the playground and ice cream that were ten minutes away! We will hopefully be back soon!

Clean, pleasant, exactly as described

My husband, Bart and I had a wonderful time while staying at the Lone Pine Cottage in Lake Ann, Michigan August 6 - 13, 2016, and would certainly recommend Lone Pine to friends. We hope to return again next year. We had everything we needed to be comfortable and self sufficient. It is a perfect, central location to stay if one wants to explore the Lelanau and Benzie Counties. We found it to be very private, quiet and peaceful. Finally, it was very easy and pleasant to communicate with Jeannine and her husband and we appreciate all they did for us. Judi and Bart Ridley

Charming small cottage even with toddler in tow.

Our small family of 3 stayed a full week in this wonderful little cottage. It has a single bedroom, which is fine for parents that cosleep, but a bit small for a packnplay. The bathroom is rather large though and we "created" second bedroom for our 20 month old in there and we were able to stay up late without the toddler turning into a gremlin. It was perfect for us, though some may be uncomfortable with this arrangement. We loved the screened porch and enjoyed a number of meals listening to the ducks on the lake. The dock, down a staircase from the house, was a great place to visit with the fish and turtles that swim right up to it. We even took the paddle boat out a couple of times. The place is not really located on a swimming pond, but is located just a few minutes walk from the village of Lake Ann's small town beach. If you are planning on swimming in the lake, be sure to take water shoes as the rocky bottom was a little hard on the feet. Do bring beach towels because you will not be able to launder towels that get messy at the beach. There is a small general store in town that has most things you may have forgotten but you will pay for convenience. Across from there is a small town park perfect for playing with children. Also don't forget the pancake breakfast I'm town on Sunday. Lake Ann was a short drive from Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. It would also be a great base to explore the wine trails though we were not able to do that with a toddler in tow. We would stay here again it was a wonderfully relaxing stay. Overall the property was as described. It was clean and Jeanine and Dan were welcoming and helpful.
