We love this place it's quiet and out of the way. We used to bring our kids up there since they were babies and now my baby is 40 years old LOL. And as long as they will have us we will keep coming up there
this is just what the doctor ordered. beautiful scenery all around, great view of the lake and nice trails to walk on. the cabin was clean and perfect for 5 of us. the kitchen was and dining area were also great. itâs conveniently located near some stores as well. i highly recommend this property if youâre looking for a quick getaway.
Perfect. If you are looking to bunker down and enjoy some peace and quiet or have an awesome homebase for nearby adventures and shopping this place is perfect for all ages and dogs too(they also loved it). We will be back soon.
We loved the house, it was so cozy and cute. The best part was that it was so tucked away it felt like you were surrounded by nothing. All you could hear outside was the birds chirping and the trees rustling in the wind, very tranquil as my partner said. We LOVED the wood burning fireplace inside it made it that much more cozy and relaxing. Great winter getaway when you are just looking for a break from everything.
The property is amazing and secluded enough to where you feel like you have a place all to yourselves. The walking trails are fantastic and larger than expected which was great.
My extended family stayed here for a long weekend visit with family! It was so beautiful out even though it rained. My son who is 3 loved the deck and the wood burning stove. The only problem was all the wood was wet so it took awhile to light the fire. Board games and cook equipment was all there!
Clean, comfortable cabin in a gorgeous private setting
Everything is clean and in good shape, comfy beds and furniture, and a beautiful view out the back windows. Nice, spacious lot and complete privacy. Peace and quiet, just what the doctor ordered!
My husband and I came for his birthday sat in front of the nice warm fire and watched net flix. Beautiful lake scene very clean except for the dead mouse I found in a trap itâs very country backed up to a forest and is to be expected only saw one just wishing it had been thrown away prior to us coming in other then that place is spotless we come every year will be back again
We wanted a place where we could unwind with a view and that is what we got. Cozy cabin with lake access. We didnât use the row boats but the fire pit and deck was the best. We fed the fish in the lake (failed horribly at fishing) and our dog loved to run around freely. We would recommend.
The Detweiler's moved on the family farm in 1965. The Chalet was built in 1976 on the 23 acres of woods on the farm. Ruel and Sara Detweiler are now retired. Our family has recently started to manage the property with our main goal being to keep everything like Ruel and Sara managed it. Our family has been coming to the Detweiler's cabins since 1982; hunting, fishing and enjoying nature. We have so many fond memories of our times spent here and we know that many other families have similar cherished memories here. That's what makes this place so special to so many.
This is a beautiful place to enjoy all four seasons. In the spring, maple syrup is made from trees on the property, wild flowers, and mushrooms abound in the area. Spring is a good time to view deer, turkey, and migrating birds. Summer is family time for hiking, fishing, swimming, or basking in the Michigan sun. There is time for day trips to Mackinaw Island, or Light Houses along the shore. In the fall, the autumn colors are some of the best in the state. Winter snow and frozen lakes bring joy to skiers, snowmobilers, and ice fisherman. This is also time to enjoy a good book by the crackling fireplace.
The Chalet cottage is unique with its fantastic views of the water from the living room and breakfast area. The dishwasher and wood burning fireplace are new to the Chalet this year. The best thing that many enjoy, is the privacy and away- from- it- all feeling that you have when you stay here.
