Lake Cottage

Check out this 3 bedroom, 2 bath lake front cottage on private Big Crooked Lake. Ideal for a weekend getaway, longer vacation, or a home away from home when attending local events. Summer brings lot of fun on your own private beach and dock. Great fishing! Right off the dock or on one of our kayaks or canoe.

Really great location, and worked out perfectly for our family. A lot of room for everyone both inside and outside. The place looks nicer in person than in the photos. The only issues we ran in to were that garage opener didn’t work, the washing machine wasn’t in the best shape (we wanted to wash a few kids clothing items but opted not to when we opened it), and the wii didn’t work at all (we just really wanted to play guitar hero but not a big deal). Host was responsive to our questionsOverall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommended it to anyone! We may even be back next year :)

Enjoyable Winter Week On Big Crooked Lake

Our family of four adults had a very nice stay, while we were in the area visiting relatives for a week during the winter. The house was very comfortable and roomy. The kitchen was large, well stocked, with a good size table and bright lighting. The living room had lots of comfortable seating. Both bathrooms were good sized. The large garage looked like it was well stocked for summer fun. The owners had the house nicely decorated, and the driveway was clear of snow.

Spacious and comfy cabin

Me, my mom & sister stayed a long weekend for mothers day. We had plenty of room to spread out and relax. Check in was easy and communication with the host was top notch. The master bedroom is very nice, and the cabin itself is well laid out and very comfortable. We enjoyed downtown Lowell and a trip to meijer gardens in grand rapids (only a 20 min drive.) We would absolutely stay here again!

End of Summer Getaway

Exceeded all of our expectations. Some reviews had us thinking the place would be run down. That was not the case at all. Perfect spot to hit the lake with everything you could think of to enjoy the water.

Great Property!

We love this house! We book houses around Michigan every summer and this one is our favorite. It was spacious and clean and well stocked. Our littles loved the beach and we appreciated being able to just cross the street and be there. On a rainy day we drove into Grand Rapids and went to the zoo and had a great time. Very nice property and we'll be back!

We loved staying on your private lake!! Cottage was cozy and we loved being outside by the lake all day. My daughters loved playing in the sand, we did a bunch of swimming and caught really nice bass right off the dock! Thanks Dave!

Lake cottage

The cottage worked well for us. Location us convenient for friends and family to visit. The cottage is closer to the road then pictures looked. Some of the traffic went by too fast but the Owner can’t control that. Cottage was clean and there was everything we needed for the beach. We were able to get in early and owner was great at answering texts If we had a question. We enjoyed our stay.

Big Crooked Lake Cottage

Great home that fit our large family of 6. The kids enjoyed the game room and the variety of video games. The layout was good with space - especially the master bedroom with the bathroom! Great communication from the owner and appreciated his flexibility. We would likely book this home again!

Great Get Away

Very nice, well appointed cottage. Everything was as listed and the house felt bigger than what the pictures indicated since it is very open. We enjoyed the kayak’s which are in great shape with a good selection of life jackets. The fishing from the dock was fun with a lot of pan fish and small bass caught right there. I would definitely recommend a stay here and I know that we will be coming back again.

Another Great Stay

This is our 2nd year in a row renting this property. Nice house and ammenties. Plenty of kayaks to use, sandy beach and small swimming area. Good fishing right off the dock. Perfect balance of seclusion and being away from the city. Owner is good at communicating with us. We did run out of a couple necessities, but got it all taken care of. Like I said last year, we’d definitely come back.

Fantastic Vacation

Great place to stay. Big kitchen. Kids loved the video game room. Beach was awesome! Kayaks and paddle boat were well used by us. We loved the fishing too. I wish the shallower swim area went out a little further. I’d also bring a pop up canopy or 2 since there is no shade in the afternoon. We’ll try to be back next year.

Cozy, peaceful oasis!

The minute you walked in the house, you felt a homey atmosphere with the amazing smells and comfortable furniture. This property had absolutely everything we wanted! I can’t think of one thing we needed that we didn’t have. The host was excellent with communication and promptness, and also flexible with last minute changes! Our family loved the house, the area and even fun family things to do just 30 mins away in Grand Rapids. Highly recommend, and we’re anxious to come back again! Thank you for a great week in Michigan!

Winter retreat

I had planned a few days away to attend concerts in Grand Rapids with a couple of friends. The concerts were canceled but we stayed at the house and had a great time cooking, shooting hoops, playing music and having epic frogger battles on the arcade machine in the game room. Beautiful home and property. The lake at night is so quiet and peaceful. I would love to come back in the summer.

Very cozy house on beautiful lake

We enjoyed a wonderful week stay in Kent county. The house was perfect for our family of 4. Kitchen was well equipped, and the whole house was so incredibly well maintained and out-fitted for a family stay. All the little things thought about (napkins, plastic cups for kids, night lights, working fans, working windows. We loved using the kayaks and the sand beach area. The drive in front of the house is private and only a very few cars on it, we felt very comfortable with kids outside in the sand.
