Loved the location ❤️

We enjoyed the home! The location is close to restaurants and golfing! We spent a day at Mackinac Island, only about 25 miles away! We loved the sandy lake for paddleboarding & kayaks & swimming!! The sunsets are absolutely beautiful! It was our second year renting here!

The outdoor area was fabulous.The dock had a boat hoist which was perfect for us since we brought a boat. Loved the shallow sand bottomed shore rather than rocks since we had a 2,5, and 6 year old with us.There is no hot tub as advertised.The 3 bathrooms have been nicely remodeled and there was plenty of hot water.

Nice home in a lovely location

Lovely home in good condition, exactly as described and met our expectations. The lake is lovely at this location, with a nice sandy bottom and petoskey stones strewn around everywhere. It's great for floaties on the lake, but note that it stays quite shallow for about 150yds before getting deep enough for adults to swim. The house is nicely furnished, and has really nice HD TVs. The beds are super comfy, and there are a lot of them stuffed into the bedrooms. The kitchen is well stocked (but a pet peeve of mine is cheap cutlery which is not fitting for a $3500/wk property). The property has lovely outdoor furniture and a great fire-pit. Note that there is "quiet time" past 10pm, which was rather disappointing because that's really only 30mins or so after sunset in summer. It's understandable though as the property is very close to the neighbors. We had one neighbor complain at midnight because of the noise, and we were only conversing quietly. Please keep this in mind if you're like us and like to have a nice chat around the fire after dark. Also, the owner called us and enquired about how many people we had staying at the property because he had been contacted by a neighbor about us moving in a mattress (which was merely a pillow-top for my father-in-law's bad back). That made us feel a bit "monitored" which I can't say I really appreciated. Just a small niggle, but deserves to be mentioned in order to give a fair review. All in all, a very pleasant property in a lovely location, with just a couple of small caveats. Recommended.

Liked: Location
This was our third year back to this property. The rain damage from spring was evident with the water so high & the loss of the sandy beach out front. We were glad the owner put the dock in for us, because very few docks were in the water. Unfortunately, we had a cold & rainy & very windy week, so we were not in the water, but we were able to sit out front in the comfortable chairs & swing. Loved that!!!

Great view and house to match!

We've been coming to IR and Burt Lake for years and as grandkids get older we keep needing bigger places. We found this house and it fit the bill quite well. And the beach front on the lake was great (sandy and shallow for a long way before the drop off). Nice dock. Evenings around fire pit. Owner was great both before our arrival and post trip. Communication was quick and he listened to suggestions to make his house an even better stay going forward. We'd definitely recommend the Case house for families and friends.

Such a beautiful place!

Our family was blessed to be able to find this listing. It fit all of our needs. The only thing I would suggest is that there are curtains on the livingroom windows that face West. When the sun sets- it gets pretty warm inside the house. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful setting on Burt Lake

We enjoyed our week stay at this beach front home. The sandy beach was great for the kids to enter and exit the lake. We used the boat hoist for our boat, which was a plus we didn’t realize we had. We liked all the couches in the living room and the bedrooms meet our needs with four families. The owner was was readily available to answer our questions and help out.

Very relaxing!

The photos don't due the property justice. Nice home with plenty of seating and sleeping area. Lake is shallow (under 3 feet) for at least 60 feet from the beach. Mostly sandy bottom makes for a very clear lake. Owner has plenty of beach toys for kids and a nice outdoor seating set. Our only issue was our boat breaking away from the buoy during a storm - no ones fault - just be careful if a storm is coming. The kitchen could have a few more things like measuring cups and 9x13 inch pans otherwise it is well stocked. House is a short drive to several areas - Petosky, Mackiaw City, casinos etc. Overall we had a wonderful stay!

Great place to stay. Lots of room

We had a wonderful time in Burt lake. Cottage was everything we could need. Only issue we had was having to wash all the bed sheets and towels. With 11 people and 8 beds used this took the better part of 4.5 hours to do. I hate to think that the people before us didn't want to wait so they just made the beds and didn't clean the sheets. Other than that it is a great cottage and beautiful setting. Easy to get in and out of. Close to all kinds of places for activities for the kids if it rains.
