Perfect home for my family of 4
This house was perfect for me and my family of 4. My kids (6 and 4) had a blast in the game room when we weren’t exploring Mackinaw and playing in the lake. It had everything we needed for a fun lake vacation.

Great place
We loved the location, quiet, views, and helpfulness of the property manager. We found the place a little beat up and not super clean, with a need of a few upgrades but only a few minor things... A solid value and very relaxing...

No Fuss, Great Location!
Our family of 5 recently stayed here and had a wonderful time! There were plenty of sleeping options, the kitchen was stocked and the bonus room in the garage was awesome! As other reviewers stated, the lake is shallow (we didn't mind one bit!),and if you're not accustomed to well water you may think it 'smells funny.' Again - it didn't bother us. The location is FANTASTIC for visiting St. Ignace, Mackinac Island and surrounding areas.

Great time in moran
Good time and peaceful on the lake. The house needs updates, like the dinky shower hand held wand, its really for campers not houses, we replaced light bulbs. There was no coffee ir hot chocolate, which you offered, the beds were ok, the tv only worked if you paid for ut???

We loved the variety of things to do here. The lake activities, rec room (ping pong table especially), and general area were a hit! The lake water was so clear and it’s amazing how shallow it is so far from the shore. We enjoyed our stay!

Cute Cottage
This place was the perfect little spot for a family weekend getaway. We actually loved that the water was shallow, as it was fun for the kids. The view is gorgeous! The cottage had everything we needed to cook meals, have a small bonfire, etc. the owner was also very responsive to our questions and concerns. Would definitely come back!

Great lake and location!
The property is in a great location. The swimming area is awesome for swimmers and non swimmers alike. The lawn area is large enough for lawn games and relaxation at the same time. The game room was a nice place to hang out and bond with family. We enjoyed the large jenga and ping pong. Overall very nice place.

Great Stay on Brevort Lake
Property is as advertised. Great cottage with a really good view over the lake. Weather didn't cooperate, but we had a great stay at the cottage and it worked as a perfect home base for day trips to Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. Very quiet with everything needed to have a relaxing, fun filled weekend. We would go back in a heartbeat.

Excellent with some needed upgrades
This place is a wonderful quiet location with many things to do. It is excellent for a family with kids as it has games nice kitchen and plenty of comfy places to sit. Beds are very comfortable. There are some upgrades that need to happen though. For a lake place it needs screens on the sliding doors so you can enjoy the fresh air and not have bugs come in. Bathroom showers need to be improved. The curtains need to be Real curtains instead of see through sheers for privacy. The red kayak leaks needs to be fixed or replace. With those upgrades it would be fantastic.

Great,Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was comfortable and very pleasant. There were lots of games on hand and the use of the kayaks and the paddle boat was a plus. Bring a few gallon jugs of drinking water especially if you are used to city water. There were several TVs in the house but we didn’t watch them. It was a very pleasant week.
