House was great and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the lake view so much! Also enjoyed the nine baby geese that came to visit the yard every morning. We were in town for a graduation and the house was a wonderful home base while visiting with friends and family. Appreciated the fun decor as well.

Overall we had a nice time. The beds are comfortable and the place was clean. The only downside was that we visited during a heat wave and the AC is in an odd location. The AC points directly into the basement and so it does not cool the floor with the bedrooms very well. We had to buy 2 additional box fans to try to get the AC to the bedrooms.

Jim and Dawn ensured our stay was restful. They made every effort to accommodate our stay going that extra mile to o help us when our truck malfunctioned. A great effort, reasonable cost and great accommodations for anyone desiring a peaceful stay on a lake

Our friends live in Brighton, and we rented Crooked cottage because it was 4 minutes to their house. We ended up enjoying the cottage so much! Bed was very comfy, with a beautiful view of the lake! The downstairs family room was a perfect place to hang out and watch a football game by the fire! We would definitely recommend this property! I loved watching the black squirrels, swans, and birds playing in the backyard and lake!

Very neat home on the lake
This home was exactly what we needed for our stay. Two full bathrooms, a nice kitchen area, an amazing basement with living room and kitchenette (that we unfortunately didn't have time to use), and a beautiful outdoor area. We were out and about almost the entire time we were in town, but this home made me wish we would have spent more time at it. 5/5, I would definitely book this location again.

Crooked lake retreat
We stayed with our family and our lab for 5 days. Great access to the lake with a nice sandy area for the kids and our dog. Close to stores and restaurants. Easy to find. We had a bit of confusion about the check in process but this was taken care of quickly. Dawn was responsive and available during our stay

Perfect Lakefront Cottage
The cottage was our home away from home for a week while visiting our cousin who is going to school at UM in Ann Arbor. The home is a short drive (25-30 min) from the Big House, so it was perfect for a UM football weekend.
If you're looking for a quiet escape with EVERYTHING you could think to need for a week on the lake, this is it. Our family of 5 had an amazing trip out from CA. Can't wait to be back.

Super cute and clean lake house
We’ve stayed at many VRBO properties, and this is my favorite. The neighborhood is great for running (or walking), the location on the lake (with a perfect sunset view) is ideal for relaxing in the sun, kayaking, bonfires, and making memories with my family. The house decor is super cute and updated, the beds are comfy, and we loved the extra large space to hang out on the lower level with lots of games and a big table table to play on. There’s also a kitchen downstairs with an extra fridge/freezer, a super comfy couch and chairs for watching movies, bathroom and laundry room, too. The gas grill worked great for cookouts. Really the house had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation, and I highly recommend it.

Perfect Lakeside Vacation Cottage!
This home is so charming and perfectly suited for a lakeside family vacation. We felt instantly at home. The kids (and adults!!!) loved the sandy beach and swimming area and we appreciated how safe and easy it was to watch them have fun! Two fridges, a fully stocked kitchen, a gas grill and a bonus downstairs kitchenette set us up for fun family barbecues and lakeside leisure.
The home was well suited for small children - lots to enjoy (fairy houses! board games! Sand toys!) and sturdy/safe enough that we weren’t too worried.
Dawn and Jim are very friendly and responsive hosts and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and more!!!
We would definitely stay here again and would enthusiastically recommend!
