The Beach House Lakeside Cottages

Wonderful
Traveller Type: family with young children
  : First let me say Martin was beyond fabulous! He called us several hours before our arrival to offer us a beach cottage (for a small fee, totally worth it!) that opened up…this man truly keeps the resort beautiful with amazing flower beds and simply goes the extra mile for guests and he is so thorough at checkin to relay any information about our specific cottage, really he was the BEST! The cottages we stayed in were older but clean, tons of towels, new queen mattresses and pullout sofa bed. Can’t beat the views of bridge and Mackinaw! The beach is so great and was very quiet and family friendly with fireworks on Friday night over the water in front of our cabin.There are new cabins on the property that have cooking facilities but they were full up. We didn’t use the pool because who needs that when you have God’s big pool.Martin called a Shepler’s bus to pick us up and return us to the property after our ferry trip to Mackinaw.We’d stay again.
  : There really was no way to fix food (other than microwave and small fridge with freezer)if you stayed longer than a couple of days (in the Older cottages). I say this because it is very expensive to eat locally. $80 for Starbucks for 5 ppl and same price for Chinese takeout. Wasn’t thrilled about carpet in such a sandy beach spot but the carpet was free of sand and well maintained. The bathroom sink was very small but worked fine and there is also a small sink in the kitchen.
